"Sorry, the number you dialed is out of service. Please check and dial again."
Service Unavailable?
Wen Yan quickly went online to check and found that there might be several reasons for the service suspension.
First, the phone may be suspended due to unpaid bills; second, the phone may be suspended if the owner reports the phone lost; third, the phone number may be a blacklisted SIM card, not registered under the owner's real name, or suspected of fraud or harassment, which may also lead to the direct suspension of service by public security authorities and telecommunications operators.
Wen Yan preferred the first option and hoped the other party would pay the fee as soon as possible.
So after showering and applying skincare products, she tried again, but the service was still suspended.
However, Wen Yan didn't dwell on it too much and went to sleep after watching a movie.

The next morning, I met Shen Zhirou at breakfast, and nothing happened again.
After breakfast, everyone went to work, leaving Wen Yan alone at home.
After taking a few laps in the garden to digest her food, she returned to the third floor.
Shen Zhirou's room is also on the third floor, separated from her room by a guest bedroom and a guest bathroom.
After hesitating for a few seconds, Wen Yan walked to the door of Shen Zhirou's room.
She planned to sneak into Shen Zhirou's room to take a look, but to her surprise, Shen Zhirou locked the door after leaving the villa.
But who locks their bedroom door in their own home?
There's definitely something fishy going on here.
Wen Yan asked Zhang Sao again and found out that Shen Zhirou had never had the housekeeper clean her room; she always cleaned it herself.
Aunt Zhang said that Madam also knew about this, which was probably a habit that the eldest daughter had developed over the past ten years while living with her adoptive parents.
...It's the past again, and the adoptive parents' family again.
Thinking of this, Wen Yan dialed the number of the man surnamed Wang again.
The result was still the same old problem; the phone number remained out of service.
Wen Yan was starting to doubt whether she had been deceived by that man, who had just made up a useless number for her.
She was silently complaining in her mind when someone suddenly called her on voice call.
To her surprise, the other party was Shen Jinghe.
This was truly unexpected, and Wen Yan immediately pressed the answer button.
"Hello, big star! What can I do for you?"
The other party was clearly not expected that Wen Yan would answer the phone so quickly, and he was even more surprised that it was Wen Yan who answered the phone.
"Why is it you?"
"Why isn't it me?" Wen Yan's tone was even more surprised than Shen Jinghe's.
Unexpectedly, Shen Jinghe said "Oh" and then said, "I know, I dialed the wrong number, I'm hanging up."
"Wait a minute!" Wen Yan called out to him before he could hang up. "Since we've made a mistake, why not just go with the flow?"
"What are you going to do?" For some reason, Shen Jinghe became wary.
"Hehe," Wen Yan chuckled, "I have something I'd like to ask you. Dear Second Brother, do you know how the initial auditions for the 'Silent' production team are going? Has the first round of auditions finished yet?"
"It'll be over soon. There shouldn't be many people left. I estimate it will be over in one day tomorrow."
As they were talking, Wen Yan suddenly heard a woman's voice coming from Shen Jinghe's side.
They said this trip would take about four or five days, and if the cat wasn't boarded, the cleaning lady would have to feed it.
Upon hearing this, Wen Yan immediately guessed what was going on: "Your assistant is back from her wedding? If you're away on business and no one is taking care of Shen Pili, I'm willing to do it. Besides, I think Shen Pili likes me quite a bit, so it's a two-way street. You can absolutely trust me with this!"
The main problem is that she hasn't had much to do these past few days, and she doesn't have many friends outside, so she's been quite bored. If she could have a handsome cat to pet, that would be such a pleasant thing.
In the end, Shen Jinghe was actually persuaded by her.
"Okay, then come pick up the cat this morning. I have to catch a flight this afternoon."
"Okay!"
After agreeing on a time, Wen Yan prepared to put on some light makeup.
But when she applied the lipstick to her lips, she suddenly realized that her favorite lipstick was missing.
She clearly remembered putting the lipstick in her bag, but she couldn't find it anywhere.

Meanwhile, the Shen Group.
Shen Jing was engrossed in reviewing a proposal when his assistant, Wen Yiming, suddenly knocked on the door and entered.
"President Shen."
"What is it?" Shen Jingxiu stared at the computer screen without even looking up.
Wen Yiming immediately replied, "When the driver took the car for maintenance today, he found one of your personal items under the passenger seat and asked me to return it to you."
Shen Jingxiu hummed in agreement, not taking it seriously: "Put it down. Is there anything else?"
"That's all, I'll head out now."
"Um."
Before he finished speaking, a small tubular object was placed on Shen Jingxiu's desk.
Shen Jingxiu didn't pay any attention and continued browsing the files on his computer.
Meanwhile, his secretary's office was in an uproar.
"Shh, come closer to me, guess what I just heard?"
"What? I can tell from your expression that it's a big scoop. Hurry up, I've already set out the melon seeds."
"Just now, Mr. Shen's driver came to Assistant Wen with a lipstick, saying that he found it in Mr. Shen's car while washing it."
"Tsk tsk tsk, who said CEO Shen doesn't eat meat? Who said CEO Shen is a monk? Who said CEO Shen has never had a woman sit in his car? That was a used lipstick!"
How do you know it's been used?
