Chapter 1038: Hung Up Just Like That?!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The moment she received the phone, Su Wan was nervous and extremely excited.
She did not dare to look at the specific year and date on it, afraid that she and Jiang Xuecheng had come to the wrong time.
She did not know how much courage she had to muster before she reluctantly looked at the calendar on it.
When she saw the string of numbers clearly, Su Wan almost jumped up!
It was actually only the second year that she and Jiang Xuecheng had left. If she calculated it, only nine months had passed!
Moreover, through the specific city name on the weather forecast, Su Wan already knew where Mount Xiaohe was!
It was actually really a central town of Jiuzhou, about four to five hours away from S City!
The heavens were really too kind to her!
Su Wan gripped the cell phone tightly, almost bursting into tears!
“Xuecheng… it’s right! It’s right! We’re back! We’re really back!”
The police officer almost jumped in fright when he saw Su Wan’s excited look.
What did she mean by ‘back?’ ‘It’s right?’
Such a beautiful little girl, could she have lost her mind?!
…
Compared to Su Wan’s surprise, Jiang Xuecheng was extremely calm.
He glanced at the time on the clock, and the remaining anxiety in his heart had already settled.
–Actually, Jiang Xuecheng had already thought about what would happen if he and Su Wan came to the wrong time.
What if his parents, brother and friends had all turned into piles of bones?
Jiang Xuecheng didn’t know what was the point of coming back.
But when he looked at Su Wan and Jiang Qiran in his arms, Jiang Xuecheng suddenly felt fearless again.
Wherever Su Wan was, it was his home. It didn’t matter even if they had to stay in a completely unfamiliar place. No matter where they arrived, it was always acceptable after a period of adaptation.
If they could not return to their former hometown, at least they had tried hard.
And now, looking at the time and geographical location, Jiang Xuecheng felt that there was still time for God to treat him well!
They were back!
Moreover, less than a year had passed. Everything was still in time!
Those days that had passed were not worth being too regretful over!
…
Su Wan held the police officer’s phone. It was obviously the latest model on the market. It was extremely light and thin, but Su Wan seemed unable to move it. Her fingers kept trembling.
It was as if she would drop the phone at any moment.
When Jiang Xuecheng saw Su Wan’s overjoyed look, he revealed an indulgent smile. Then, he stretched out his empty hand and patted Su Wan’s shoulder lightly.
“Wan Wan, this is someone else’s phone. You may be happy, but don’t forget your business. Make the call.”
Su Wan nodded her head heavily. There seemed to be a flash of light in her eyes.
Her fingers skimmed over the touch screen. When she saw the familiar nine-grid number, she felt a little timid.
Su Wan looked at Jiang Xuecheng for help.
“Xuecheng… who should I call?”
The traveller was even more cowardly when he was close to home and didn’t dare to ask about the situation.
Su Wan had learned this ancient poem when she was very young. Now that she had to make a phone call, she truly understood what it was like to feel that way.
She felt that the whole world had already flattered her, but as she got closer, she felt both happy and nervous.
Although it hadn’t been that long, it had already been nine months!
She and Jiang Xuecheng had been missing for a total of nine months!
How worried would grandfather and the others be?
Perhaps she and Jiang Xuecheng had already gotten their identity certificates revoked and become legally dead?
And now… they had “risen from the dead” again.
Su Wan didn’t care about the opinions of strangers in all of this. However, she was really a little nervous when it came to her family and friends.
Jiang Xuecheng understood the existence of Su Wan’s emotions.
He reached out to brush away the strands of hair that covered Su Wan’s eyes. The cold expression on his face faded away, and his outline was unbelievably gentle.
“I don’t know if mother and the others have changed their numbers. You can try them one by one. Anyone will do, as long as you can get through.”
As if afraid that Su Wan would be worried, Jiang Xuecheng added.
“Wan Wan, don’t be afraid. If they know that we’re still alive, they’ll definitely be more surprised than anything else.”
…
The police officer listened to their conversation seriously. He had thought that such an outstanding couple would definitely make a lot of money as celebrities. How could they be human traffickers?
Now that he saw Su Wan’s crazy excitement and Jiang Xuecheng’s words of “we’re still alive,” he felt as if he had fallen into the clouds.
What was going on?!
It felt like Jiang Xuecheng and Su Wan had just escaped death.
Uh… but looking at their strange clothes, he thought about it carefully and realized that something was wrong.
It seemed like they were not human traffickers. Could it be related to the kidnapping?
The young police officer immediately frowned and looked up and down at Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng, as if he wanted to see through them completely.
But who had ever seen a hostage so beautiful?
There were no scars on his face or hands. Most importantly, he was still holding a child!
Sensing the police officer’s gaze, Jiang Xuecheng glanced at him coldly.
For some reason, the police officer suddenly felt a chill down his spine and subconsciously looked at something else.
This man’s aura was so strong, much more terrifying than the director of the police department!
Where did this man and woman come from?!
The young police officer frowned even more deeply. When he saw Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng just now, he felt that not only were these two very outstanding, but he seemed to have seen them somewhere before.
Of course, he couldn’t have seen them in real life. As long as he saw such people once, he would never forget them.
Could it be in some newspaper or magazine, or on internet television?
…
That police officer was muddled and could not remember.
On the other hand, Su Wan had already made up her mind and dialed Lin Fei’er’s number.
That’s right. After some consideration, Su Wan did not dare to call Jiang Xuecheng’s parents, nor did she dare to call her dearest grandfather. Instead, she chose Lin Fei’er.
Fortunately, Lin Fei’er did not change her number.
When she heard the dial tone, Su Wan’s heart pounded non-stop.
However, she did not expect that Lin Fei’er would immediately hang up on her after only a few seconds!
Su Wan did not know whether to laugh or cry. Was it because she had received a call from a foreign number that she directly rejected it?
Su Wan did not give up and immediately dialed again.
This time, it was finally connected.
“Hello, may I know who you are?”
When she heard Lin Fei’er’s sweet voice from the other end of the phone, Su Wan had the urge to cry.
Her thoughts churned. She only felt that someone was grabbing her throat. It was extremely sour.
Su Wan choked on her sobs. She hesitated for a moment before she slowly opened her mouth.
“Fei’er, it’s me. I’m back…”
Su Wan thought that the person on the other end of the phone would be overwhelmed with excitement, but in the end, there was the beeping sound from hanging up!
Wait, Lin Fei’er actually hung up the phone?!
