Chapter 615: Is There a Problem Between You Two?
Every nook and cranny of the house was meticulously clean, reminding him of Xiaomeng tidying up. He felt like he was experiencing hallucinations.
He tossed his car keys onto the coffee table and slowly sank onto the sofa, covering his face with his hands, deeply pondering where the problem might lie.
She seemed perfectly normal recently, except for feeling a bit down for a couple of days after returning from Shu Pan’s wedding. He guessed it was due to envy.
But he was planning a surprise for her too. Why envy others?
He hadn’t even had the chance to tell her yet, so why would she run away from home?
Her silent departure left him clueless.
He thought about her friends. Shu Pan was her bestie, but she hadn’t even told Shu Pan. Her other friends were just acquaintances, unlikely to go out together.
He ran his hands through his hair, feeling utterly lost.
Finally, he had no choice but to pick up his phone and call Shu Pan.
“He Ming?” Shu Pan sounded uncertain. “Did you bring Xiaomeng back?”
Because she knew he was going to Xiaomeng’s house today.
“No, Xiaomeng is missing,” He Ming said, distressed.
“Missing? What do you mean missing?” Shu Pan suddenly raised her voice, startling He Ming.
“Xiaomeng didn’t come back. She’s not at home. I don’t know where she went,” He Ming regretted not paying more attention to Xiaomeng recently.
“Have you been to her house?”
“Yes, she hasn’t contacted you?” He Ming thought Xiaomeng would have contacted Shu Pan.
“No, how about this, I’ll give her a call later. If she picks up, I’ll ask her to contact you,” Shu Pan felt that Xiaomeng sometimes acted impulsively, so she probably didn’t think much about it.
“Okay, thank you,” He Ming said gratefully.
After hanging up the phone, Shu Pan immediately called Xiaomeng, but no one answered.
She tried again, but still no response.
Shu Pan started to feel anxious. Could Xiaomeng be deliberately not answering the phone to spite He Ming?
But it was impossible for her to ignore everyone’s calls.
Just then, the phone suddenly rang, breaking the silence in the room.
Shu Pan checked and saw that it was Xiaomeng calling. She felt a wave of excitement and quickly answered the call.
“Xiaomeng, where have you been? We’ve all been worried sick,” Shu Pan didn’t wait for the other person to speak, she hurriedly said.
“Girl, calm down, I’m fine. I just came to the beach for a couple of days. I’ve been feeling down lately, needed to clear my mind,” Xiaomeng explained.
“Well, you should have told He Ming. He’s been going crazy worrying about you,” Shu Pan thought Xiaomeng was being clueless.
“His mom hasn’t been feeling well recently, so I didn’t tell him, didn’t want him to worry,” Xiaomeng didn’t know why, but she just didn’t want to tell He Ming. The image of him walking out of the elevator with the beautiful woman that day kept replaying in her mind.
“Xiaomeng, do you remember there’s a little one inside you? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?” Shu Pan worried that Xiaomeng was being careless, especially after finally getting pregnant.
“I’m fine, I’ve checked with the doctor. And I’m just nearby, not going far,” Xiaomeng was more anxious than anyone. She just needed to clear her mind, afraid it might affect the baby.
“That’s good. He Ming has been calling you many times, why didn’t you answer? And why didn’t you return his calls after seeing missed calls?” Shu Pan finished, then asked softly, “Is there a problem between you two?”
