16. Chapter 16 Phone 2

Finally, Shangguan Yun hung up the phone, I let out a long breath, and immediately Lili's phone rang again.

All I heard was Lili saying: 'Xuanxuan is answering the phone.'

Then I didn't hear Lili say anything else. I guess she hung up.

After hanging up the phone, Lili whispered: 'Look, another call is coming in.'

'Exactly, it's really enviable.' a Qinshi classmate replied.

Envy, forget it; I'd rather let someone else have this kind of envy.

The phone call with Li Feng, dragging on here and there, lasted about half an hour before it ended.

After hanging up, Lili again said to me: 'Xuanxuan, Shangguan Yun wants you to call him back after you finish the call.'

'My phone bill is expensive.' I said disdainfully.

'Hehe, so stingy, not even calling the handsome guy.' Lulu teased.

'Sweat, my mom only gives me two hundred yuan a week for living expenses, and the phone bill is included. If I don't save, I'll go hungry.' I said, pretending to be pitiful.

To avoid Shangguan Yun calling to harass me again, I turned off my phone.

Besides, the phone's radiation is strong; I'm not that smart to begin with, and getting hit by such strong radiation a few times would likely turn me into an idiot. So I usually turn off my phone before sleeping.

The September weather is irritating; eight people in one Qinshi, no air conditioning, conditions are really poor. Just a feeble fan squeaking away. Hard to fall asleep.

At this moment, very quiet, very quiet, just as I was about to fall asleep, someone's phone rang, and the urgent music pulled me out of my dream.

In a daze, I heard Lili hand the phone to me and say: 'Xuanxuan, it's your call.'

'Say I'm asleep, I'm exhausted.' I didn't lift my head to answer the phone, pulled the blanket over my head, closed my eyes and continued to cultivate sleep, hoping to fall asleep quickly; otherwise, I'd be listless tomorrow. I hate that half-asleep feeling.

'Just answer it. Talking to him is useless.' Lili said somewhat impatiently.

'Just turn off the phone, I really want to sleep.' I said under the covers.

'I can't afford to offend him; don't get me in trouble. Answer quickly, answer quickly.'

Helpless, I had no choice but to poke my head out, reach out and take Lili's phone, eyes still closed, put the phone to my ear, and in a lazy voice said: 'What's up so late?' I was really sleepy; this was definitely not an act.

'You're that sleepy?' Shangguan Yun spoke clearly.

'Mm, I really want to sleep. What time is it? Aren't you sleeping yet?' I continued in my lazy voice.

'It's only eleven-thirty; I'm used to sleeping at one or two, so I can't sleep.'

'Oh.' I said 'oh,' really not wanting to talk. Couldn't be bothered.

'Wasn't I supposed to have Lili tell you to call me? Why didn't you?'

'Making calls costs money, okay? I don't have as much money as you.' I explained.

'Then why turn it off?'

'The phone's radiation is strong. I don't want to become an idiot, so I turned it off.'

'You always have an excuse.'

'It's not an excuse, it's a reason, and it's true. I'm really sleepy; can we chat again next time?'

'Just chat with me a bit more; I'm so bored.'

'Go find someone else to chat with. I'm really sleepy.' I continued saying.

'From now on, you're not allowed to turn off your phone at night, got it?' Shangguan Yun said domineeringly, completely ignoring my words.

'Okay, okay, okay.' I replied hastily in a daze.

Then I was dragged into chatting, chatting about who knows what, and I don't remember what we talked about; I don't know when I fell asleep in a daze.

When I woke up in the morning, the phone was lying right beside me; I felt like we hadn't hung up last night. I guess we just chatted until we fell asleep.
