Chapter 217 The call couldn’t get through
Mo Yichen glanced at Chen Qian silently. Although he was very disgusted with her, she could help Li Yunhong take care of Xiangyan. He would be relieved with her help.
If possible, he would like to call Gu Yan to accompany Xiangyan. But he also knew that Li Yunhong wouldn’t allow Gu Yan to come here in any case.
At this time, Chen Qian looked at Mo Yichen and said softly, “Yichen, you can rest assured. I’ll take good care of Xiangyan, and you can go back to work intently.”
Mo Yichen almost vomited to hear her affected voice.
He nodded helplessly, “Well, I’m going back to the company and I’ll be back later.” Then he took a glance at Xiangyan and left.
At the same time, Manla looked at the screen of her phone again. However, there was no new message from Mo Yichen. She was disappointed and a little angry.
Where did he go at this critical moment?
It seemed that he’s nice to Gu Yan. But he just disappeared when Gu Yan needed him.
“Obviously, men are unreliable. They are trustless!” Gu Yan muttered under her breath.
“Mo Yichen, you’d better be busy with your work, or I won’t allow you to be with Gu Yan!”
Manla paced up and down in the room and grabbed her hair fretfully. As she was ready to call Mo Yichen to ask him what he was doing, she heard some noise from Gu Yan’s room.
Manla went there and found Gu Yan walking out of her room. She didn’t look very well, but was much better than before.
A few hours ago, Gu Yan held the phone in her hand. Once she closed her eyes, everything happened lately would appear in her mind. After a while, she fell asleep out of tiredness. So, she looked much better now after a good sleep.
Seeing Manla holding her phone in her hand, Gu Yan asked excitedly, “Did Yichen call you just now? How is Xiangyan now?”
Seeing her like this, Manla dared not to tell her that she had texted him before. She didn’t want Gu Yan to fall into a woolgathering because of this.
Seeing Manla was in a daze, Gu Yan knew that Mo Yichen did not call her back. She was a little disappointed. But she didn’t think too much, instead, she took out her phone and said, “I have to call Yichen and ask him whether I could go to see Xiangyan. I’m worried about him.”
Manla grabbed her phone immediately.
Gu Yan was confused. She asked with doubt, “Manla, what’s wrong?”
Manla dared not to look at Gu Yan’s eyes. She coughed as she finally figured out an excuse, “Gu Yan, you should eat something now. If you’re sick, how could you take care of Xiangyan?”
Gu Yan agreed with her, but she still felt something was wrong.
Then Manla pushed Gu Yan into the bathroom and said, “You’d better take a bath to be sober since you have just woken up. I’ll cook something for you, and you can eat it when you come out.”
After pushing Gu Yan into the bathroom, Manla took out her phone to call Mo Yichen instantly. She wondered what was going on!
She worried that her best girlfriend would be disappointed if Mo Yichen failed to live up to her expectations. After all, he didn’t reply to her message before.
Anyway, she had to call him first. Did he blame Gu Yan or something?
Soon, the call got through, but no one answered. Hearing the beep sound, Manla was a little angry, “Mo Yichen, how dare you! How could you not answer the phone?”
Manla was moaning and groaning. But thinking of how he cared about Gu Yan before, she felt that there must be some misunderstandings between them. Because in her eyes, Mo Yichen’s love to Gu Yan was too genuine to be a fake one.
Manla stamped her feet and walked to the kitchen helplessly!
When Gu Yan was eating, Manla looked at the phone frequently. But by the time she finished eating, there was no new message. Manla was more and more anxious.
When Gu Yan finished eating, she wanted to call Mo Yichen. Manla tried to stop her subconsciously, but Gu Yan insisted on calling.
She looked at Manla seriously, “Manla, I know that you care about my health, but I’m really worried about Xiangyan. I’ve slept well and eaten the meal. Could you not stop me?”
Manla was speechless. She had to give her the phone.
Looking at Gu Yan’s awkward expression, Manla said to herself that Mo Yichen still didn’t answer.
Gu Yan continued to dial the number for several times. Finally, she stared at the table and put the phone down. She muttered, “Is it Auntie Li who doesn’t allow Yichen to contact me?”
Manla didn’t know how to comfort Gu Yan. She just held Gu Yan in her arms to make her feel better.
Leaning on Manla’s shoulder, Gu Yan was heartbroken. She sighed with tears full of her eyes.
“Manla, what do you think Mo Yichen is doing now? Why didn’t he answer my phone? He used to answer it in seconds. Did anything happen to him?”
The more Gu Yan thought about it, the more she believed that something must have happened to him. Then she stood up quickly, “Oops, what if something happens to Xiangyan? I have to go to the hospital now.”
Gu Yan put on her coat hastily and found a pair of sneakers from a pile of shoes to wear. Then she took her bag and held Manla to go to the hospital with her.
Manla rolled her eyes and said, “No, I won’t go there.”
“Well… We just need to take a look at them. We’ll come back as soon as I know they’re fine.” Gu Yan pulled Manla’s clothes and acted like a child.
“If you are by my side, I would feel at ease.”
“No, I’m not going.” Obviously, Manla had got used to her style. She slightly raised her head and looked at Gu Yan pompously.
“I’ll invite you for a sumptuous dinner. Which restaurant? You name it.”
Manla smirked. She knew now was the best time to ask for an expensive meal.
“Deal! I want to eat Japanese food. There is a newly opened restaurant downstairs your house. It’s said that the dishes there are quite expensive. Ha-ha, get the money ready.”
