Zhou Yi paused for a moment, then said, "Okay."

She took the phone, holding the little one in one arm and answering the call with the other.

As she brought the phone to her ear, she respectfully said, "Sir."

"You've arranged to have dinner with someone tonight?"

A deep, magnetic voice came through, like the strumming of a cello, making your ears itch.

Zhou Yi's ears weren't itchy, but she felt a little uncomfortable.

I never expected that the voice I usually hear would sound even better coming from the phone's earpiece.

She thought of a word: sexy.

Yes, that's the word, it's very appealing.

However, she had no such thoughts. Hearing the words coming from the phone, she remembered what Aunt Dong had just said and replied politely, "Yes, sir, I made an appointment with my brother this morning to have dinner together tonight."

"..."

There's no sound from my phone.

very quiet.

Hearing the silence, Zhou Yi was slightly puzzled. Had the connection been lost?

Thinking that she had taken off her phone to look at the screen, she saw that she was on a call and the call hadn't ended.

Is it a bad signal?

Thinking it over, Zhou Yi took back her phone and asked cautiously, "Sir? Is there something you need?"

"Grandma Yu Yu hurt her back and needs to check on the child."

At that moment, a sound came from the phone.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yi's heart tightened instantly: "Grandma Yu Yu strained her back? Then...then..."

It's no small matter if an elderly person strains their back; these days, it's perfectly normal for elderly people to take care of children.

However, she had promised her brother that they would have dinner together that night, and her brother was usually very busy, so it was rare for him to have time for her now.

Zhou Yi was in a bit of a dilemma.

If it were anything else, it would be fine, but right now both are clearly important, and she can't make a decision right away.

After she spoke, the phone went silent again, as if it was waiting for her.

Let her make a decision.

As Zhou Yi was thinking, the little guy in her arms moved. He wanted to see her answer the phone, and his two little hands grabbed her clothes, as if to say that he wanted to talk to his father.

Zhou Yi sensed the little guy's movement, looked at him, and saw his bright black eyes. Gradually, an answer came to her mind.

She said, "Sir, I'll call my brother to tell him about my situation, and then we'll go out to eat together next time."

"Okay, I'll be home in a bit."

"Okay, I've already talked to my brother and I'll start packing Yu Yu's things."

"Ah."

Without saying anything more, Zhou Yi handed the phone to Aunt Dong, and then took out his own phone to call Qin Shi.

At this moment, the sky over Yunzhou City was already covered with a thick sunset glow, and the entire city was bathed in a fiery red light.

At this time of year, the city is bustling with traffic, with horns blaring and long lines of cars circling the entire city of Yunzhou.

Qin Shi left the hospital and drove into the long line of cars, heading towards the Qingbei Villa District.

Less than half an hour into the drive, my phone rang.

He looked at the name displayed on the car's LCD screen, pressed a button, and said aloud, "Zhou Yi."

Zhou Yi held her phone, listening to the dial tone. When the call connected and Qin Shi's voice came through, she immediately asked, "Brother, are you off work now?"

Hearing the obviously anxious voice coming from the phone, Qin Shi's eyes flickered, and he said, "I'm off work, on my way to Qingbei Villa. What's wrong?"

Brother has arrived?

So fast?

Zhou Yi frowned, but she had already made up her mind and wouldn't change it. She said apologetically, "Brother, the boss just called and said that the child's grandmother hurt her back and needs to see the child. He's going to take the child to see his grandmother in a little while, and I want to go with her."

"Brother, can we have dinner together next time?"
