Following which, the microphone symbol lit up next to Shi Yao’s name, but what that reached his ears was a male’s voice instead: “Hey.”

Because the other party had also replied with a “Hey”, Lin Jiage automatically assumed that it was a voice echo from him, so without giving it much thought, he asked once more, “Are you there?”

swiftly replied, “I’m here.”

The voice that came through the earpiece was, once again, the voice of a male.

Lin Jiage’s hands froze on the spot.

This time, the words were different from what he’d said, so he couldn’t even convince himself that it was a voice echo from him anymore.

As if someone had clubbed him on the head, his mind went completely blank.

After the person on the other end waited for a very long time without receiving a response, the voice came out of Shi Yao’s avatar once more, “Hey hey hey, can you hear me? Can you hear me?”

The clear voice of a male relentlessly grated on Lin Jiage’s eardrums. It took a while after those words were spoken for Lin Jiage’s eyes to finally move, and before he could even decide on what his next course of action should be, these words had already escaped from his mouth, “Who are you?”

As soon as he said the words, Lin Jiage immediately realized just how foreign and frightening his voice had sounded. Within the utter coldness, one could sense a raging fury. It was a deeply livid voice tinged with a slightly agitated tremor.

The man who was on Shi Yao’s account swiftly replied. Perhaps it was due to sensing the hostility in Lin Jiage’s voice, his tone wasn’t particularly friendly either, “Who are you then?”

Who am I? I’m the man who will very soon become the most intimate person in the world to the owner of the account you’re on!

Lin Jiage’s gaze turned wintry cold as he replied, “It doesn’t matter who I am. What’s important is why are you on this account?”

Updates by . com

At this point, Lin Jiage couldn’t help realizing that there hadn’t been a single response to the many messages he had sent to Shi Yao. This was something that had never happened before. Could she have possibly lost her phone on her way back home?

With this thought in mind, Lin Jiage asked, “Did you happen to pick up this phone? List a price, how much will it take for you to return this phone?”

The man on the other side replied, “Bro, are you alright? Which eye of yours saw me picking up this phone? Let me tell you this, I don’t need to pick up this phone in order to use it. I can use it whenever I want to!”

This was the first time Lin Jiage was seeing someone acting so brazenly despite picking up another person’s belongings… He was never one to lose in a verbal fight, so he quickly replied sharply, “You don’t need to explain anything to me. You should reserve that for the police.”

Hearing Lin Jiage’s words, the tone of the man on the other side didn’t weaken in the slightest, “Bro, you really are hilarious, do you know that? Aside from whether I know the owner of this phone or not, just the fact that you’re just a mere online friend, an inconsequential existence to the owner of this phone, why are you sticking your hand up where it doesn’t belong?”

Inconsequential existence? Are you talking about me?

What a joke! How could I possibly be an inconsequential existence to Soft Bun?

Lin Jiage was just about to retort to those words, but before he could say anything, the man’s voice sounded across the earpiece once more, “Do you know who the owner of this account is? Do you know how old she is? Do you know her phone number? Do you know her address?”

“You probably know nothing at all about her, right?”

Hah, I know nothing about Soft Bun? This must be the most ridiculous thing I’ve heard all year!

With such thoughts in mind, Lin Jiage was just about to speak when the man on the other side of the phone continued, “Well, just remain as ignorant as you are about her. You’re a nobody to her anyway, unlike me.”
