" He's just an abnormal person. I don't understand what he's saying," Azurepeak said and continued eating.
" No, no, don't eat first." Meng Lin tugged Azurepeak's arm with one hand to stop him from using his knife and fork.
" Sigh, my young miss, what exactly do you want? It was a good meal, but a crazy woman ruined my mood. Now, I can't even eat." Azurepeak was helpless, but he couldn't do anything to his sister.
"You told me everything that happened during the time I left my seat.”
" I've already told you. She's a crazy woman…" Azurepeak's phone rang again. Meng Lin seemed to have grabbed onto the straw of life. The hand that was originally holding Qing Feng's arm suddenly shifted to the phone. The music kept playing and the screen showed Wen Hui. She answered the phone with trembling hands.
Wen Hui called back angrily. When the other party picked up, before the other party could speak, she started scolding like a thunderbolt," Damn you, how dare you hang up on me? Do you really think I don't know that Xiafei Road has long since disappeared in Shanghai…" Wen Hui's voice was so loud that Meng Lin was shocked. Even Azurepeak, who was sitting opposite her, heard it and shook his head helplessly.
" I'm talking to you, why aren't you moving? Tell me where you are if you have the guts. Do you believe that I'll go over and strike you to death right now?" Wen Hui was getting angrier and angrier. Meng Lin was holding the phone while her brother was sitting opposite her."Should I speak or not? If she spoke, Wen Hui would be at ease, but she would expose herself in front of her brother. If she did not speak, she would not expose herself for the time being. "How about this? Let's not talk for now. I'll call Wenhui when I get back at night. Since the phone can be connected, I can make a call." Thinking of this, Menglin gritted his teeth and hung up the phone. He was afraid that Wenhui would call again, so he turned off his phone.
"I told you just now, she's just a crazy woman. Do you believe me now? Sigh, my young miss, can we eat now?”Azurepeak looked at his sister innocently and did not dare to touch his knife and fork.
" Oh, go ahead, Big Brother. It's okay now." Meng Lin smiled awkwardly, but he couldn't let go of Wen Hui's voice.
" Oh right, this is a wireless phone, right? There's no such thing in the Republic of China, but there's one in England. It's really advanced."
"Brother, you know how to use this thing?”Meng Lin was shocked.
" Hehe, you're underestimating me, aren't you? The last time your thing rang, I was the one who answered it for you…" Before Azurepeak could finish his sentence, Meng Lin almost spat out the juice he was drinking. He could not sit still anymore. "What did you say? Did it ring before?"
" Yeah, you fell asleep on the sofa that day. It kept ringing in the room, so I answered it for you," Azurepeak said seriously, as if he didn't know what was going on.
"Then…who called last time?”
" It's also that crazy woman from earlier." Azurepeak took a sip of red wine.
Oh my god, it turned out that her brother already knew her secret, but he didn't take this phone call seriously. Fortunately, she had the experience of studying abroad. Anything that seemed strange to them was mistaken for something brought back from England. Thinking of this, Meng Lin's mood was very complicated. He did not know if he was lucky enough to avoid his brother's doubts or if he was unlucky enough to miss two calls from his best friend, causing Wen Hui to be so worried. When she was in her hometown, she didn't pick up her mother's call once. When she came to Shanghai, she forgot to reply to the people there because she was busy. She was really ashamed. When could she change her mental illness?
Azurepeak saw that his sister was deep in thought and had a guilty look on her face. He thought that he had said too much just now and felt a little regretful. He comforted his sister and said,"Alright, alright, big brother doesn't blame you. It's all that lunatic who messed up our mood. Let's forget about her. Hurry up and eat. Big brother will take you out to play later."
"No, brother, I want to go back and rest early."
"Oh, are you not feeling well?"
"Yes, I am. I'm tired after a busy day."
Azurepeak then realized that his younger sister might not be used to the new job yet. Moreover, something had happened at the factory today and she had to go to Master Wu's place. It was really tough. Therefore, he promised his sister that he would quickly finish eating and go back to sleep.
When they got home, Meng Lin urged Azurepeak to take a bath. Only when his brother took a bath could he talk to Wen Hui in peace. Besides, unless there was an emergency outside, the person who took a bath would not come out easily. The sound of water inside was very loud, and he could not hear the movement outside. Azurepeak saw that his sister was so sensible, so he did not decline. He took his pajamas and went into the bathroom.
Meng Lin locked his room door and took out his phone. He turned it on as quickly as he could. After the phone was turned on, he dialed Wen Hui's number.
It was really strange. The phone couldn't be dialed, and there was a "toot" sound from inside. What went wrong? Meng Lin was still unwilling to give up. He continued to call again, but it was still the same " toot ". He hung up again and called again. He had to call again tonight no matter what. However, after calling more than ten times, the line was still disconnected. This time, she was like a deflated ball, lying limply on the bed.
Her brother had received two calls, and she had also received one call. Why couldn't she make a call at this time? Why was this? She didn't expect that the phone she had brought over from transmigration could still be used, but now it wasn't working. What was going on? The phone had been tormented for a day and a night, and its battery was slowly depleting. At this time, it automatically shut down again.
Seeing that it had automatically shut down, Meng Lin could not be bothered with it. She lay on the bed and flipped over, thinking about the entire process. Her brother said that he had received a phone call on the day he slept on the sofa, and then a second time when he was eating at the restaurant. When Wen Hui called, he answered it a third time. These three calls were normal, but why couldn't he call her tonight? What was the problem? The three times he answered the phone…Wait, answer the phone? Those three times, the phone was used normally because someone called me. Tonight, the phone didn't work because I called someone. Could it be that this phone can only receive calls in the Republic of China, but it can't make calls?
Thinking of this, Meng Lin felt that it was possible. First of all, Wen Hui did not know that she had transmigrated, so she called as usual. She was in the 21st century, so the operator would definitely follow the normal procedures to help her connect. However, she was in the Republic of China, so there was no mobile phone operator at all. Therefore, no one would pick up the call. Thinking about it, this was the only explanation.
Her brother came out in his pajamas after showering. He knocked on Meng Lin's door and told her to wash up and go to bed early. Meng Lin's thoughts were interrupted by the knock on the door and he responded casually. It seemed that the only way now was to wait for Wen Hui's call. She had to bring this phone with her at all times. She could not let her brother answer the phone again, or something would happen sooner or later.
That night, the phone was silent, but Meng Lin could not sleep. The phone was no longer a secret, and she did not know how long it would take for her identity to be a secret. At that time, what would her brother think? What would the whole family think? Where could she go? As she thought about it, she remembered her home again. Could she still transmigrate back? Should she take the initiative to tell her brother about her origins? What should she do? She thought about the huge pressure on her shoulders. A tear rolled down her face and she fell asleep.
Suddenly, there was a flash of light in front of her eyes. A man stood in front of Meng Lin's bed. He stretched out his rough hand and caressed Meng Lin's sleeping face. The corners of his mouth were filled with a blissful smile as he softly called out," Daughter, daughter." Meng Lin was woken up by a few friendly calls. He opened his sleepy eyes and suddenly saw a man sitting by the bed. He was shocked, but he felt that this man had no ill intentions. When he took a closer look, the man's face gradually became clearer. It was her father. When did her father come to Shanghai? Why didn't he inform her in advance? Meng Lin was about to ask how the people in her hometown were doing when she heard her father say," Father is going on a long trip and won't be back for a long time. You and your brother have to take good care of your mother and grandparents."Father, where are you going? Why can't you come back for a long time?”，His father smiled and did not answer. Then, he said,"Father knows that you're not the real Xia Menglin, but Father feels that there's some sort of fate between us father and daughter. You must be wary of others." Meng Lin was stunned. When did Father know his true identity? Why didn't Father expose him? Also, why did Father say that he had to be wary of others? Who did he have to be wary of? Just as he was about to ask his father, he suddenly saw his father stand up and turn around to leave." Father…wait…" Meng Lin reached out to grab his father, but he couldn't. His father opened the door and suddenly disappeared…
