Huo Shaoheng answered the call with his Bluetooth earpiece. He walked to the smoking area of the senate's building and took out a cigarette. Upon lighting it, he inhaled deeply and asked, "You're still awake this late?" Taking a look at his watch, he saw that it was already half past midnight.
Gu Nianzhi could hear the inhaling and exhaling while Huo Shaoheng was smoking. It was extremely clear in the quiet night. She could even imagine him smoking. His tall frame was leaning against the wall, his long legs crossed, a cigarette in one hand and his head slightly lowered. That profile of him looked exactly like a perfect screensaver for a phone that made people want to kiss their phones.
Huo Shaoheng waited for a while, but Gu Nianzhi remained silent. However, he did not rush her and smoked as he waited silently. The white smoke floated around his long, slender fingers as it made its way into the night.
