Then Lu Yuan took out his phone and dialed Chen Ming's number. His relationship with Chen Ming was purely casual, nothing particularly close; it was all business dealings. But in this crisis, he couldn't worry about that now.
"Who are you?" The other party clearly did not have Lu Yuan's phone number, and their voice was tinged with wariness as they spoke.
