Shen Xi had just put down her things when Guan Lei's video call came. Shen Xi thought about it and finally answered it.
"Xixi, you finally called. I've missed you so much. Did you miss me?" Guan Lei's face was pressed against his screen, making him look comical.
"Don't be silly," Shen Xi said with a smile. "Zhao Yuan is here with me."
Zhao Yuan angled herself toward the camera and parodied Guan Lei's words dramatically, "Xixi, I've missed you so much. Did you miss me? Gosh, that sounds so mushy!"
Guan Lei felt a little embarrassed after being teased by Zhao Yuan. He tried keeping a straight face but failed, and he had no choice but to settle for something in between. The result was a somewhat serious-looking face that did little to hide his sullen feelings for being called out.
Zhao Yuan knew not to overdo her teasing. Instead, she turned to Shen Xi, "I still have things to do, so I'll head out first. Have a good chat!"
