The words in He Jichen's mouth came to a sudden stop. After a second, Ji Yi realized that he was speaking to Dr. Xia, ”Excuse me, please wait...”

Then Ji Yi felt his voice become a lot clearer than before and assumed that he put the phone to his ear. ”Mhm?”

”My wound is fine. I was calling you to...” Ji Yi's voice was soft. She was mid-speech when He Jichen interrupted her words: ”Wait just one moment.”

Then Ji Yi heard He Jichen apologize to Dr. Xia and bid him farewell. After a while, He Jichen's voice sounded clear again. ”Go ahead...”

”I...” Ji Yi had called He Jichen too suddenly. She hadn't even planned what she wanted to say. She merely said one word then suddenly stopped. He Jichen, however, was really patient - he didn't rush her. After some time, Ji Yi moved her lips and said, ”... I saw the top searches on Weibo.”

”Mhm?” replied He Jichen. Ji Yi was speaking so vaguely that he didn't quite know how to respond. After his confused reply, he realized what she was referring to and let out an ”Oh.”

Oh... What kind of answer is that?

Ji Yi made the call instinctively without even thinking about what she was going to say to He Jichen, so as she heard him reply like that, she didn't quite know what to say.

After who knew how much time had passed, Ji Yi suddenly remembered that she could say ”thank you” to He Jichen. She gulped but before speaking again, she heard a ”Dong!” over the phone.

Ji Yi furrowed her brows and instinctively asked, ”What's wrong?”
