Chapter 264: Turning Off Her Phone

When He Ming came out of the bathroom, he saw Hu Shanshan sitting quietly by the bed.

“It’s very late. I’m going home now. You should rest early and be careful.” He Ming checked the time; it was getting late and he should leave.

“Alright, sorry for the trouble, Brother He. Drive safe.” Hu Shanshan said politely.

After He Ming opened the door and walked out, Hu Shanshan got up from the bed and latched the door from inside.

She felt guilty after answering He Ming’s call. She was still feeling uneasy, worried that He Ming would find out.

Fortunately, she was smart enough to delete the call record after the caller hung up.

He Ming would never find out what happened unless that woman named “Mengmeng” told him.

But based on that woman’s calm and quiet tone, she was probably an aloof person who wouldn’t question Brother He over such a trivial matter.

Hu Shanshan’s felt a little better. She only did what she did to drive a wedge between Brother He and that woman.

According to He Ming, he was still pursuing that woman. No woman would be able to accept such a thing, so she was just taking advantage of the situation.

Now, she just had to wait for Brother He and that woman to quarrel and break up.

The more Hu Shanshan thought about it, the more excited she got. After all, who wouldn’t like a handsome man like Brother He?

Her friends were all so envious.

As soon as He Ming got home, he took a shower and changed out of his dirty clothes.

He then took out his phone and dialed Ye Xiaomeng’s number.

However, he was greeted by an automated customer service voice message telling him that Xiaomeng’s phone had been turned off.

“Thank you for calling. The number you dialed is currently unavailable as the phone is turned off.”

He Ming couldn’t sit still now. What was going on? No matter how busy Ye Xiaomeng was, she would always reply to his messages.

What was going on today? Did her phone run out of battery?

He Ming felt himself panicking and found an excuse to comfort himself.

He Ming sped up his packing, hoping to get to Ye Xiaomeng as early as possible tomorrow morning.

Ye Xiaomeng had indeed turned off her phone. Why are all men like that? Enjoying the view from someone else’s balcony while neglecting the beauty of their own garden?

She thought that He Ming would be different, but it turned out that he was just like other men, unable to resist temptation.

If any man dared to say that he could resist temptation, the only possible reason was that the temptation wasn’t strong enough.

To think that she actually helped him find an excuse!

She was really furious when she heard that delicate but familiar voice. She was He Ming’s so-called “sister”.

She had no right to interfere with his friends, but she was still unhappy when she heard the voice. She could only hang up and turn off her phone.

Was this the surprise he had prepared for her? If he liked that girl, he could just tell her. She wouldn’t stop them but she hated lies.

Ye Xiaomeng was restless for a long time. She lay in bed and thought about her experiences with He Ming since they met and didn’t realize that tears had welled up in her eyes.

Turning off her phone was just a temporary escape. She would still have to face it when she turned on her phone tomorrow.

Would she still believe his explanation?

Men’s sweet nothings were poison. She already had a taste before. Would she experience it again?

Ye Xiaomeng got drowsy as she thought about it and fell asleep.

She was asleep, but because her phone was turned off, He Ming couldn’t sleep.

He Ming tossed and turned all night until it was dawn.

He immediately took his luggage and rushed to the city where Ye Xiaomeng was..
