Chapter 510 Suspicious Phone Call
Countless handprints were left on the glass.
The sunset painted half the sky red.
The red sunlight shone on the woman's face, making it even redder.
Wen Jingxi's determination to have a daughter was greater than anyone else's.
There was no suite in the new house, and she reluctantly complied with Wen Jingxi's wishes.
When it was all over, the two lay on the leather sofa in the living room, their bodies still carrying each other's scent.
As dusk fell, the night sky was dotted with stars.
Lying on the living room sofa, I looked out through the floor-to-ceiling window and saw a bright moon hanging high in the night sky.
"Are you hungry?" Wen Jingxi asked, playing with her hand.
"I'm hungry." Song Lanyin's voice was also a little hoarse.
I've been physically exhausted since I came back from the Civil Affairs Bureau.
"Shall I give you a bath first, and then we'll go out to eat?"
"I don't want to go out." Song Lanyin wrapped her arms around his neck. "Let's order takeout. I want to take a nap."
Wen Jingxi kicked open the glass door to the bathroom and stepped inside.
He placed Song Lanyin in the shower room and turned on the showerhead to adjust the water temperature.
Have you bought all the bedding here?
"I bought them," Song Lanyin said. "The bedding is in the closet; the housekeeper washed it beforehand."
"Okay, then you wash yourself. I'll go out and make the bed."
"Um."
Wen Jingxi came out of the bathroom and went into the dressing room.
The closets were all made of frosted glass, but they were empty except for two four-piece bedding sets that stood out.
Wen Jingxi took out a pure white four-piece suit and walked out of the dressing room.
By the time he had laid out the four-piece bedding set, Song Lanyin had already finished showering and was coming out wrapped in a bath towel.
"My luggage is still at Yungui."
Wen Jingxi paused, looking at her wet hair, "Where's the hairdryer? Dry your hair first."
Song Lanyin found a hair dryer, and Wen Jingxi reached out and took it from her, saying, "I'll help you."
With someone to wait on her, Song Lan could enjoy the music.
Her hair wasn't long, only reaching her collarbone, and it dried quickly.
Wen Jingxi put the hairdryer away and said, "You lie down and get some sleep first. I'm going back to Yungui and buying some groceries while I'm at it."
"Okay." Song Lanyin pulled back the covers, crawled into bed, and closed her eyes. "Drive slowly, don't rush."
"Don't worry, go to sleep." Wen Jingxi leaned down and kissed the corner of her lips. "I'll take a shower and then go to sleep."
"Um."
After taking a shower, Wen Jingxi wrapped himself in a towel and walked to the living room, picking up his clothes from the floor and putting them back on.
Although it's a bit wrinkled, it's not very noticeable at night.
He got dressed, grabbed his phone and car keys, and went out.
...
Song Lanyin was half asleep when she vaguely heard her phone ringing.
She turned over, pulled up the covers, and continued sleeping.
But the phone kept ringing.
She irritably threw off the covers, opened her eyes, and sat up.
The cell phone was in the living room, ringing incessantly.
She scratched her hair in frustration, threw off the covers, and got out of bed.
Her bathrobe was already loose, but she wrapped it around herself casually, ran barefoot to the living room, and picked up her phone from the coffee table.
It was an unfamiliar number.
She was so annoyed by the noise that she pressed the answer button: "Who is this?"
His tone was very sharp, and he had a terrible temper when he woke up.
But no one spoke on the other end of the phone.
Song Lanyin frowned. "Hello? Who is this?"
The person on the other end remained silent.
Song Lanyin felt confused. After hanging up the phone, she put her phone on vibrate and turned back to her room.
She put her phone on the bedside table and lay down again.
Just as she closed her eyes, preparing to drift off to sleep again, her phone vibrated once more.
It's still the same number.
"Who the hell is disturbing my peaceful sleep?!" Song Lanyin pressed the answer button and held the phone to her ear. "Who is it? Tell me!"
"I still remember that day. On that day, besides going to school, every minute I spent was spent with my parents by my side..."
Song Lanyin was stunned.
The same song playing on her phone was exactly the same as the one in her dream.
Her grip on the phone tightened suddenly. "You, who are you? How do you know this song?"
No one responded to her.
The ballad still echoes.
The palpitation came suddenly, and the phone slipped from her hand and fell to the floor.
In the quiet room, the music from the phone sounded especially clear.
Song Lanyin clutched her chest, breathing rapidly. She opened her mouth wide and gasped for air, but the air still felt very thin.
This uncontrollable bodily reaction used to only occur when I had that dream.
Her vision blurred, and Song Lanyin fell onto the bed. She reached out to grab her phone from the floor, but eventually rolled off the bed.
She touched the phone and ended the call.
The singing stopped.
Song Lanyin leaned against the bed, panting heavily.
The suffocating physical reaction gradually dissipated as the singing faded away.
She was shocked and terrified.
So it wasn't the dream that caused her to have such a strong physical reaction; it was the song itself.
Just hearing that song made her body completely lose control...
Who called her?
Song Lanyin closed her eyes and waited for her body to recover before opening them and checking her contacts.
She took a screenshot of the number and sent it to Alai, asking her to help her look it up.
Alai was very efficient and called her back quickly.
"Boss, I found it. This number belongs to Hong Kong."
Port City.
Song Lanyin narrowed her eyes, "Can you find out who it is?"
"Sure, I don't know if this person is too naive or deliberately not hiding their tracks. I checked, and it's someone named Di Keman. But... something's strange. I checked this person's information, and this person... died thirty-two years ago!"
