Chapter 322 Fever
"What do you mean?"
Hearing Lu Yi’s name, Shen Heyu felt a sinking premonition inside her. She intended to interrogate him, but since she was ill, her voice lacked any strength and sounded soft and coaxing, almost like a seductive plea.
Pei Yansi paused upon hearing her voice, but quickly collected himself, striving to remain unaffected by her spell. He smiled faintly and continued, "An hour ago, he called your cell phone. Want to know what he said?"
His smile was as inscrutable as ever, devoid of warmth.
Shen Heyu found it odd; she looked into his eyes only to find them pitch-black, exuding nothing but boundless coldness, revealing nothing else.
They say the eyes are the window to the soul, but Shen Heyu simply couldn’t glimpse any hint of his inner thoughts from his eyes.
However, her years of understanding him told her he was angry. But due to her illness, he struggled to keep his temper in check.
Shen Heyu realized that Lu Yi’s call might have contained some distressing news, so she did not respond to him.
She always avoided such potentially fraught questions.
Pei Yansi watched her for a long time, but when he got no response, he faintly guessed that she was trying to evade the issue. He scoffed and said, "If you keep silent like this, I might overthink things. Like, whether you and him have been plotting something in advance."
