Chapter 181: How Did You Get My Number!?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Su Qianxun did not have the strength to walk. However, because Long Sijue was chasing her out, she had no choice but to force herself to walk out of the bathroom by using the wall to support herself.
Long Sijue watched her as she staggered towards the door. His chest heaved rapidly. The moment she exited the door, he turned and punched the mirror beside him. Spider web-like cracks immediately appeared on the originally flat and smooth gla.s.s, and his blood dripped down along the shattered mirror…
After Su Qianxun left the bathroom, she went to her walk-in closet. She changed into dry clothes before sitting in a corner and curling herself up. She did not feel like going anywhere right now, and the only thing she wanted to do was to hide from the world.
She remembered how her grandfather often brought her to the orphanage when she was young. The children there liked to hide themselves this way. Some hid in closets, and some hid behind the balcony curtains. At that time, she did not understand why they were doing this at all. Whenever her grandfather saw children who did this, his gaze was always filled with compa.s.sion.
Now, she finally understood that this position signified fear towards the outside world, and was a subconscious act of self-protection.
Now, she had also become one of those children.
The young woman fell asleep while sitting in the corner. She dreamed about the time she was a child again. In the dream, she was wearing a beautiful princess-style dress and running around the vast lawn of the Su family’s mansion. Everyone looked at her with doting gazes as she smiled happily…
The sunlight at that time was so, so bright.
A pair of strong arms lifted her up. Su Qianxun really wanted to open her eyes to see who that person was, but she soon fell back asleep because she was extremely exhausted.
When Su Qianxun woke up, she had an immense headache. She placed her hand on her forehead and gazed helplessly at the ceiling. She reckoned that she had fallen sick again.
She forced herself to sit up. Beside her, her cell phone started ringing. She took it and glanced at the screen. She furrowed her eyebrows when she saw the text message displayed on the screen.
[Young woman, how are you? Did Long Sijue make things difficult for you?]
‘Who is…
‘Li Junye sent me this text message?!’
Su Qianxun gently swiped the screen to unlock her cell phone. She saw three text messages. The first one was her “thank you” message that was meant for Long Sijue. The second one was the text message she received before this, the one that asked her to meet the sender at Shangri-La Hotel. And the final one was the text message she just received, which was an inquiry about her current situation.
Su Qianxun widened her eyes in disbelief. She could not believe that she texted the wrong person, and sent the message that was meant for Long Sijue to Li Junye.
‘But, how did Li Junye get my number? No, a better question would be, why do I have Li Junye’s number in my phone?’
Su Qianxun immediately called Li Junye. She felt totally wronged!
Ever since Long Sijue gave her the cell phone, she had only contacted a few people. It was utterly impossible for outsiders to have her phone number!
She saved everyone’s phone number aside from that of Long Sijue’s. Hence, only Long Sijue’s phone number was displayed as numerical figures. Moreover, the phone numbers of Li Junye and Long Sijue were almost the same! Only the first two figures were different, and the rest of the figures were all number nines.
Li Junye picked up the call almost immediately. “Su Qianxun, how are you? Did Long Sijue make things difficult for you?”
“How did you get my number!?” Su Qianxun questioned him.
Li Junye stayed silent for a moment before saying, “Look at you, I care so much about you, but all you care about is how I got your number.” Li Junye felt a little guilty. He secretly dialed his own number using her cell phone when he b.u.mped into her in the room that day.
Since she was terrified out of her wits at that time, it was completely impossible for her to have noticed that he was using her cell phone.
“I don’t even care if you die. Now, answer my question! Did you run an investigation on me!?” After Su Qianxun said that, she realized that something was not quite right. Even if he did run an investigation on her, why would his phone number appear in her cell phone?
