The workers stopped and, though no one spoke, they all looked at him, clearly signaling for him to go on.
Huo Yi paused, then braved himself to continue, âBut Miss Chi didnât answer.â
Itâs one thing for him not to call, itâs quite another for her to dare not answer!
Bang!
The table was kicked over by someone.
Huo Yi kept his focus straight ahead as he was accustomed to these outbursts.
Li Beijueâs chest heaved violently, his phoenix eyes filled with bloodlust. He roared, âKeep calling her until she answers!â
In his previous life, he must have desecrated her ancestorâs grave; this life, heaven must have sent her to torment him!

At Zijing Garden.
Chi Enen had already packed up her belongings.
Since she had never planned on staying here permanently, she had few things: just a few clothes she needed for everyday wear and some small items like toothpaste and toothbrush. Everything packed up, her suitcase was only half full.
She walked into the living room, a spacious and bright place where the breeze blew through the bay window, causing the white curtains to billow and the sunlight to pour inâ¦
She was really leaving.
Chi Enen looked down at the pink diamond ring and bracelet on her left hand, the pink diamond shimmering in the sunlight. She suddenly remembered the threats of a certain person: if she dared to take them off, he would chop off her fingersâ¦
Chi Enen shook her head speechlessly, at a loss for words to describe that certain personâs domineering character. She hoped his temper would improve after she left.
At this time.
âDing ding dingâ¦â The mobile phone on the sofa rang.
She took off the diamond ring and bracelet and laid them conspicuously on the tea table. She also placed the 150-yuan silver ring she had bought in the Ryukyu Islands beside them before turning to answer the phone.
On the phone screen, the name âButler Huoâ pulsated incessantly.
Chi Enen hesitated, not understanding why Huo Yi was calling her.
Could it be Li Beijue using Butler Huoâs phone to call?
Her hand froze for a moment as she picked up the phone, then after a brief consideration, she swiped the screen and chose to reject the call.
As soon as she hung up, the call came through again.
Chi Enen furrowed her eyebrows and hung up again.
After repeating this several times, she switched off her mobile phone.
The world finally quieted down.
She took one last look at the mansion in Zijing Garden, left the room card inside, then pulled the room door shut from the outside.
âClick.â The door locked.
Chi Enen took a deep breath, relaxing her mood and walked out.
She now had an important matter to attend toâfinding a reliable second-hand mobile phone store to sell her phone!
Lacking means diminishes ambition; she had no choice as she couldnât even find a single cent on her person. Apart from selling her phone to quickly scrape together the car fare, she couldnât think of any other way.
But come on, itâs the 21st century, and here she was resorting to âselling the iron potââtruly miserable!
The elevator arrived, and Chi Enen turned to take one last glance at the firmly closed room door, letting out a sigh.
No matter what, things will get better, and she would work hard for it!
