“Well, I am her…” “Her boyfriend, right?” I deliberately used a tone as if it was common knowledge. “Hehe.” He laughed awkwardly. “Sort of, yesterday… was that you who answered the phone?” Hypocritical! So hypocritical! My poor Xiang Tong, the man you’ve waited for ten years won’t even openly admit you’re his girlfriend. I’m going to make the phone guy’s life miserable. “What exactly do you want, mister? You’re annoying. With all the calls every day, how am I supposed to know who’s who?” “It’s like this, I couldn’t get in touch with her, I was worried something might have happened, so I came here.” I sneered. Is that your answer? I looked at him, remembering the first time I met Xiang Tong ten years ago, sitting on the sofa with an empty gaze, as if she could see death. I suddenly wanted to ask him, where was he when Xiang Tong was struggling on the brink of death? Europe? America? Southeast Asia or Greece? Seeing me silent, the phone guy smiled gentlemanly: “May I ask, who are you to her?” I decided to get back at him, for Xiang Tong, I was going all out. At that moment, Xia Wei suddenly jumped out from behind: “Damn! Mister, can’t you see? We’re her illegitimate daughters! May I ask who you are? Why do you talk so much? Are you here to acknowledge us? Are you going to take responsibility for us? Look, just the two of us.” “You girls really know how to joke.” The phone guy laughed awkwardly. “Who’s joking with you?” “No, I mean…” Xia Wei continued to yell at him: “What are you saying? Men with no conscience, always knocking on doors, so annoying.” “Well…” The phone guy wiped the sweat off his forehead, looked us over, and said somewhat incoherently: “I just want to know where she went.” “She? She’s on vacation with her lover, maybe Tibet, maybe Shangri-La, Lijiang, or Hainan. She won’t be back for ten days or half a month. If you want to find her, call her phone, she’ll turn it on eventually.” “I lost her phone number, can you give it to me?” he asked. “We don’t care about her business.” He was thoroughly defeated, bowed his head, and after a while, said: “Never mind, I’ll leave.” O(∩_∩)O Ha-ha~
