Chapter 433 - 433 434 Meeting (6)_1
?Chapter 433: Chapter 434: Meeting (6)_1 Chapter 433: Chapter 434: Meeting (6)_1 Liang Chen didn’t know how long he had been sitting in a daze. Suddenly, a call came in. He bowed his head and first looked at his phone, noting that it was already five in the morning.
He’d apparently sat motionless in the car for most of the night without knowing it.
Then his gaze fell on the name displayed on the incoming call. He was first taken aback, thinking it was an illusion. He blinked and again carefully looked. The name displayed was “Haohao”. A feeling, indescribable and yet undefined, stirred rapidly and urgently in his heart.
She was calling him?
Had Jing Haohao seen the news he’d made?
For several days he thought that, despite her tarnished reputation, she was unwilling to return to him…
Liang Chen raised his hand, viciously pinching his thigh. Feeling a piercing pain, he suddenly grinned and began to laugh.
Haohao had finally contacted him…
Laughing, the corners of Liang Chen’s eyes suddenly became moist. He raised his hand to rub his eyes, then his trembling fingers reached for his phone.
Whether it was because of his overwhelming excitement, he discovered that his fingers were shaking too much to hold the phone.
Liang Chen grabbed his phone eagerly to answer the call, raising it to his ear. Without any hesitation, he asked, “Haohao?”
Only after these words slipped out did he realize that his voice was choked with emotion.
Raising his hand to cover his mouth, Liang Chen sucked in a deep breath, suppressing his excited heart, and asked again over the phone, “Are you fine, Haohao?”
…
Jing Haohao had always thought she would hear Liang Chen’s sleepy voice.
However, she didn’t expect that after the call was connected, she would hear Liang Chen’s voice, trembling slightly… precisely speaking, it sounded like he was crying.
Crying?
This realization froze Jing Haohao in place, and she envisioned Liang Chen, immaculately dressed, standing in the majestic and dominant Jiangshan Group office, exuding a royal aura as he orchestrated his empire.
How could the invincible “Young Emperor”, who only ever caused others to cry, be crying himself?
Amidst Jing Haohao’s plethora of mixed emotions, through the phone came a man’s voice, as elegant as always: “Are you fine, Haohao?”
She thought, after drugging him and silently escaping, that he would definitely be furious. When she contacted him, he would surely rage on the phone, taunting and belittling her as before.
But, she didn’t expect he would only ask, “Are you fine, Haohao?”
His tone didn’t contain the slightest hint of anger, rather, it carried a touch of… excitement. Was it her misconception?
Jing Haohao, holding her mobile phone, remained silent.
On the other end of the phone, Liang Chen felt his heart pounding exceptionally hard. His dark world of nearly a month suddenly saw a glimmer of light.
He had been dreaming of finding her and finally, at this moment, she appeared. She was alive and well in this world, not like the nightmarish vision of her dying in a desolate place.
Liang Chen didn’t feel even a bit displeased by Jing Haohao’s silence. Instead, he tried to suppress the excitement in his heart and spoke in a voice that was no different from his usual tone. But his tightness revealed his inner thoughts, “Where are you?”
