Chapter 218: Will you come and pick me up?

"Zizi …"

After Lu Jing Cheng left, Gu Shu Bai prepared to leave the house to go to the school to find a child. Although it was only 9 o'clock and there was still some time before the end of class, it would still take some time for him to head there.

Just as he got up from the sofa, the phone on the table vibrated. He looked down and saw that it was an unfamiliar number.

This was his private cell phone number. Very few people knew about it, yet they knew about the strange phone number that was calling him? Who could it be?

Gu Shu Bai extended her hand out and picked up her phone, then swiped the answer button.

"..."

He waited for a few seconds for her to speak, but no one answered.

"Speak."

Did anyone call him and say nothing?

Gu Shu Bai lost her patience and spoke two words coldly into the phone.

"..."

Still no sound.

What was going on?

Gu Shu Bai suddenly thought of something.

He opened his mouth, but his voice was no longer impatient. Instead, it was gentle, "Silently, is it you?"

The possibility of her taking the initiative to call him was very small, but it wasn't impossible. Furthermore, she hadn't brought her phone with her today, so the chances of her using her landline to call him were the highest.

"professor Gu."

"Silence." It really is her. Gu Shu Bai's mouth curved into a smile, and his expression couldn't help but soften.

"professor Gu."

… ….

It was raining. After squatting in front of the school gates for a while, she suddenly felt pain. She raised her head from between her knees and realized that it was unknown when the heavy rain had come. She felt pain because the rain had struck her body.

He was unlucky to be able to drink so much as a mouthful of water.

There should be some basis for her words. Otherwise, how could she have met with such a situation?

She slowly stood up and looked at the cars and people hurrying past her in the rain.

Where were they going? Are they going home?

Where was she going? Where should he go?

Ji Zi Mo followed the crowd and crossed the road, walking aimlessly.

The rain was pouring down heavily, and after a while, her entire body was drenched. The pain caused by the rain did not decrease, instead, it became more painful, but it was also good.

She crossed the road and walked a few more blocks, but she still had no direction. She didn't know where she was going, like a lost child.

… ….

"Hubby, it's raining. I'm not carrying an umbrella, can you come and pick me up?"

A girl walked past her with a bag in one hand and a phone in the other. She was talking to a girl and because they were very close, Ji Zi Mo could hear her words very clearly.

"Hubby." She mumbled the word before her eyes suddenly became wet. She started to frantically reach into her pockets for her phone. She really wanted to call him.

No, there was nothing in his pants pocket, not even a single piece of clothing.

"Where? What about his phone? "Where did he go?"

She was so anxious that tears fell from her eyes. She did not give up and rummaged through her pockets again and again, but the result was still the same.

However, this did not make her want to find him. On the contrary, she wanted to hear his voice even more. She wanted to hear his voice, which was inexplicably strong. She wanted to hear his voice.

There were no public phone booths along the way, but fortunately, there was a newsstand, and there was a landline on the kiosk.

"Boss, can you call me?" She looked longingly at the landline.

"A dollar a minute."

"Alright." Ji Zi Mo replied and immediately went to pick up the phone.

"Sigh, wait." The boss stopped her.

"Pay first." The boss looked at her and said.

"Alright."

It was probably because she looked so down and out, and was afraid that she wouldn't have the money to give it later!

When Ji Zi Mo thought about it, she laughed, but it was not at all sarcastic, or even resentful towards the boss.

This was very normal and could not be blamed on the boss. This was a society where benefits were of paramount importance. Of course, it did not mean that there was not the slightest bit of human warmth, but it just so happened that she did not meet one.

She didn't have a cell phone with her, but fortunately she had some money.

Ji Zi Mo took out some money from her pocket. "Sorry, boss, this money is a little messy, is it okay?"

"It's fine, it's fine." The boss took the 5 yuan from her hands and then took the initiative to take the microphone and pass it to her. "You can make the call!"

"Thank you." Ji Zi Mo quickly took it and dialed Gu Shu Bai's number.

Strangely, despite not having deliberately recorded his number, he was actually able to press his number accurately at this time.

This was his style. She opened her mouth, intending to speak, but no words came out. At this moment, she felt that she had been too impulsive, even though she had been impulsive, she still did not intend to hang up. She wanted to hear his voice, even his weak breathing from the microphone, that would make her feel at ease.

"Speak." Suddenly, the other side opened their mouth with a hint of impatience.

Ji Zi Mo was afraid that he would hang up the phone, hence she shouted and rushed out.

"Silently, is it you?" It was faster than her, and this time there was no impatience in his voice. It was a very soft shout, calling her name.

At that moment, Ji Zi Mo really wanted to, wanted to, especially wanted to cry without caring about anything else.

"professor Gu." But the truth was, she could only repeatedly call out his name.

… ….

"What's wrong? Silently? "

If it was the first ring, he wouldn't have been able to hear it, but he must have heard it the second time. The child's voice sounded like it had been crying, and even though there was a loud noise coming from the receiver, he could still distinguish it. He felt his heart tighten, and frowned, but his voice was still gentle, afraid of scaring the child over there.

"..." Ji Zi Mo couldn't hold back her tears this time, they came out really quickly. When he heard Gu Shu Bai's words, she cried, and was about to choke on her tears. However, he was afraid that Gu Shu Bai would hear her, so he covered his mouth and kept on shaking his head.

"Silence, speak." Gu Shu Bai's heart tightened. With one hand holding her phone, he talked to Ji Zi Mo and the other hand picking up the key on the table, she walked out with her legs crossed.

"Good and quiet, come and speak. Tell professor Gu what happened, where are you? "Good girl, don't make me worry. I'm very worried about you. Speak." His tone sounded like she was coaxing a child.

"professor Gu." His voice was very hoarse, and because he was crying too loudly, his words were intermittent: "professor Gu, it's raining, I can't go back, you come and pick me up, okay?"
