Chapter 184: One hundred eighty-three, busy signal
Upon reaching the parking spot and seeing the car that had turned into a heap of scrap metal, Luo Shu helplessly shook her head. It wasn’t easy to have a means of transport, and now it was gone again.
After cleaning up the car, Luo Shu checked the time and sighed, "It seems I can only go tomorrow." The bus to Drum Mountain Town was no longer available, so she could only go back to Fangting Town and call Hanmo.
Lu Hanmo checked his watch once more, furrowing his brows with anxiety as he looked into the distance. It was already afternoon. Why hadn’t the car he sent to pick up Shushu returned? Could something have happened? The more he worried, the more his mind raced with possibilities.
As time passed, Lu Hanmo grew increasingly restless and finally couldn’t bear it any longer. He turned and headed towards the office. He had to call Shushu’s home to inquire about the situation. Knowing Shushu’s character, unless she was held up by something, she would never break an appointment.
When Luo Shu returned home, she saw Fu Yi watering the potted plants in the courtyard. Not everyone could enter the Divine Doctor Family, so when she left, she had Lu Hanmo call them and tell Fu Yi and the others not to follow her. Moreover, if a real emergency arose, with their current strength, they could no longer protect her.
Fu Yi nodded slightly at Luo Shu and continued watering the flowers. He rarely spoke to Luo Shu unless necessary. His responsibility was only to protect her.
Luo Shu smiled, stepped indoors, and went straight to the phone, picking it up to make a call.
"Beep—beep—beep—" The phone emitted a busy signal, and Lu Hanmo’s frown deepened. He hung up and dialed again.
