Qin Xin stared at the unfamiliar number with a Beijing district code flashing on her phone, taking a few deep breaths to steady herself before cautiously answering. Her voice carried an unexpected warmth and sweetness, even she wasn't aware of.
Could this landline number be his office phone?
"Hello!"
There was a moment of silence on the other end, followed by a voice she knew all too well: "Ling! Are you okay?"
The smile on Qin Xin's face froze. She quickly pulled the phone away from her ear and looked at the number again before excitedly rushing to respond: "Vid? Vid! How are you? Where are you? I've been so worried about you!"
"Those two undercover cops were fake! I just managed to escape! Are you at home?" Nie Xiuwei's voice was deeply grave.
