It was not the first time Song Baiyan had called, but it was the first time she hadn't picked up his call.
Tang Li held the cellphone, hesitating whether to call back.
He had just returned to the Capital today, surely exhausted from the travel. If he was already resting, what should she do if her call woke him up?
In the end, Tang Li chose a compromise.

Tang Li had just washed her face when the cellphone on the counter started vibrating.
Without bothering to grab a towel to dry her face, she wiped her hands on her shirt, pressed the answer button, then put the cellphone to her ear: "Hello?"
"Why such a hurry?"
On the other end of the phone, the man's voice seemed to carry a smile.
