Chapter 217 - 218: Shadow in the Darkness
Chu You quickly redialed the phone. He-he-he, bet you didn’t expect big bro to be awake this late!
Perhaps it’s an illusion, but Chu You felt that the moment the Game Pod opened, his mind was quite clear and his thought process extremely lucid. There was something different about his brain. It seemed like his memory had significantly improved? ?
With a blink, Chu You waited for the call to connect.
After three rings, Bao’er answered the phone.
"Bao’er, why did you choose to call big brother so late?"
The other side didn’t respond, but Chu You could hear a faint breath. What was wrong? He was baffled at the moment.
Right then, in a pitch-black single dormitory of the Youyou Orphanage, Bao’er was lying all alone. In the middle of the summer, the air conditioner was running in Sleep Mode, maintaining a perfect temperature.
The phone screen’s light illuminated Bao’er’s exquisite small face. Bao’er couldn’t sleep, wondering if it was due to the new environment or the appointment with Chu You. Even when she did manage to catch some sleep, she would just wake up soon after.
She knew she had overshot the time to call Chu You, and perhaps that was why she was unable to sleep? Therefore, her idea was to make a call and then hang up. She felt that this would bring her a lot more peace of mind.
She just hadn’t expected Chu You to still be awake at this late hour.
Before she had closed her eyes for even one minute, the phone suddenly rang. Without a doubt, it had to be Chu You calling back. Bao’er was confused about whether to answer it or not. After hesitating for two seconds, she eventually picked up.
