Contract Marriage: Love Has Finally Arrived-Chapter 507 - 508: Explosion Incident (6)
Chapter 507: Chapter 508: Explosion Incident (6)
"Did sister’s leg get better afterward?"
"It did, and then sister grew up. Look at me now, aren’t I all right?"
"That’s true..." Nangong Xi smiled weakly. "What about sister’s mom?"
That question made Gu Qiangwei feel somewhat heartbroken.
Her leg had healed that time, but her mother had vanished forever.
"Sister’s mom... disappeared..."
Nangong Xi slightly opened his eyes, but in the narrow, pitch-black space, he couldn’t see Gu Qiangwei’s face.
"Why? Did sister’s mom not want you anymore?"
Gu Qiangwei’s expression darkened; she didn’t understand why her mother had suddenly disappeared, whether she had been harmed or no longer wanted her. To this day, she did not know the answer.
"Maybe."
She replied offhandedly.
But would such a kind and gentle mother really not want her?
Suddenly, a brief ringtone shattered the quiet night!
A jolt ran through Gu Qiangwei’s body as she swiftly turned her head, only to see the familiar caller ID on the phone screen!
It was Qin Sijue!
She quickly grabbed the phone, slid it open to answer, and hurriedly put it to her ear, "Hello!?"
"Hello? Gu Qiangwei!? Hello!?"
Outside, when Qin Sijue heard the familiar ringtone, his heart trembled with excitement, but as he eagerly called out Gu Qiangwei’s name, the phone communication once again lost its signal.
"Dammit!"
He was so furious he almost smashed the phone again!
"Hello!? Qin Sijue!?"
In the cramped space, Gu Qiangwei had thought she would hear Qin Sijue’s voice the moment she slid the answer button, but after calling out for a long time, there was no sound at all.
It was only when she took the phone away from her ear that she realized the signal had vanished again, automatically terminating the call.
Although her hopes were dashed once more, Gu Qiangwei’s spirits were lifted! Being connected meant the signal could appear here at any moment.
"Sister, who was it?" From her embrace, the voice of Nangong Xi slowly emerged.
Gu Qiangwei lowered her head, "Qin Sijue! We’ll be rescued very soon. Can you hold on a little longer?"
"Okay..."
"Xixi is the best!" She hugged him tightly. Since she had given her coat to him, in the cold winter she started to feel her body freezing.
Holding him allowed her to warm up a bit more.
With one hand wrapped tightly around Nangong Xi and the other holding the phone, she continued to stare at the top left corner of the screen.
As soon as there was a signal, she would immediately make a call!
She hoped that heaven would look upon them with favor, to give her a minute just to make a call would be enough!
Staring at the screen, Gu Qiangwei was almost too afraid to blink, fearful that the signal that had returned would disappear again in the blink of an eye.
Finally, under her relentless watch, two bars of signal lit up in the upper right corner!
In surprise, she quickly dialed Qin Sijue’s number with the fastest speed.
Meanwhile, Qin Sijue, who was also trying to call Gu Qiangwei, turned around and saw Huo Yishan also on the phone attempting to make a call.
"What are you doing?" His voice was very low, palpably conveying the layers of frustration and anger suppressed deep within him!
Huo Yishan was dazed, her eyes swollen from crying.
"I-I’m calling Qiangwei."
Upon hearing this, Qin Sijue became furious and bellowed, "Can you not make calls when I’m making one!?"
Startled by his shouting, an already upset Huo Yishan was now sobbing because of Qin Sijue’s yelling.
