Chapter 1411: The phone that was sacrificed
Yuan Zhou had forgotten about the unsent message, but Yin ya didn’t forget that Yuan Zhou didn’t reply to her message.
Moreover, Yin ya was very clear that Yuan Zhou was a man of his word. She had clearly told him yesterday afternoon to send a text message to inform her that he was safe. However, Yuan Zhou only sent the text message about getting on the plane from Chengdu and didn’t even send the text messages about getting off the plane and coming back.
This made Yin ya extremely worried. She went out of the restaurant and went straight to Taoxi road when the sky became slightly bright. Therefore, the first person to enter the restaurant today was not Wu Hai, but Yin ya who had been waiting there for a long time.
When he saw Yin ya, Wu Hai was even a little shocked,””Why did you come earlier than me?”
“I couldn’t sleep. I was hungry, so I came over early.” Yin ya pursed her lips and said.
“Oh, I understand. I’m familiar with this feeling. I wake up hungry every day.” Wu Hai nodded his head to show his understanding.
Yin ya just smiled and didn’t answer him. She looked at the closed door from time to time with a worried look.
Looking at Yin ya’s manner, Wu Hai didn’t say anything more. He just stood behind her and lined up.
When the line became longer and the time was close to 8 O’ clock, Yin ya’s mood was both expectant and anxious.
She was hoping that Yuan Zhou would open the door on time to show that he was fine, but she was anxious because if Yuan Zhou opened the door on time but didn’t send her a message, she didn’t want to think about the meaning.
With a sound of “Hua la”, the door of Yuan Zhou’s restaurant was opened. Yin ya let out a sigh of relief and at the same time, she couldn’t help feeling disappointed.
However, her worry prevailed in the end. Therefore, Yin ya walked into the restaurant quietly.
However, she didn’t say anything when the others were wondering why Yuan Zhou didn’t exercise. She just sat there quietly.
If Yuan Zhou wasn’t so busy today that he didn’t even have time to raise his head, he would definitely be able to see Yin ya who entered the restaurant first.
Not until Yuan Zhou finished the clear broth noodle soup ordered by the first batch of customers and walked to the partition with the tray did he see Yin ya.
Instantly, Yuan Zhou’s eyes brightened. He personally served a bowl of noodles to Yin ya,””You’re here? Breakfast. ”
“Yes.” Yin ya bit her red lips and then nodded her head.
Sensing Yin ya’s low mood, Yuan Zhou was a little puzzled. But he still asked seriously and in a low voice,””What’s wrong?”
On hearing Yuan Zhou’s question, Yin ya finally couldn’t help raising her head and said with a decisive and a little nervous expression.
“Did you lose your phone?” Yin ya didn’t know why she changed the words to this sentence.
After saying that, Yin ya couldn’t help biting her lips discontentedly. However, she couldn’t help looking at Yuan Zhou expectantly.
Yuan Zhou’s heart thumped and he answered with a flash of inspiration,””Yeah, the phone disappeared after getting off the plane. It’s indeed lost.”
“Ah? Your phone disappeared after you got off the plane. Are you okay?” The worry in Yin ya’s heart prevailed. She immediately knitted her thin brows and asked.
“It’s fine. I’ve already collected a return ticket in advance. I also have my ID card and cash. It’s fine.” It was rare for Yuan Zhou to say so much.
“That’s why I didn’t have time to send you a message. ” Yuan Zhou said.
“That’s good. It’s fine that you lost your phone. It’s good that you’re fine.” Yin ya’s heart fell back into her stomach and her face suffused with sweetness.
“I’m fine,”she said. Yuan Zhou nodded his head affirmatively.
“Alright, you should go back to your work.” Yin ya waved her hand and then said.
“But you ...” Yuan Zhou looked at Yin ya with a worried look.
Today, Yin ya was wearing a simple black suit and a coat. Now, she had taken off the coat and only had the suit left.
The suit was black, which made Yin ya’s face look as white as snow. There were also faint greenish-black circles under her eyes. If one looked carefully, one could even see the faint red veins in her eyes.
It was obvious that he hadn’t slept for a whole night, which made Yuan Zhou feel more guilty.
“She must have been worried all night.” Yuan Zhou said inwardly.
“I’m fine. I’ll be fine after eating something. ” Yin ya shook her head and said.
However, when she saw the customers in the restaurant looking at her, especially the teasing smile on Cheng Han’s small face, Yin ya’s face got a little hot. When she saw Yuan Zhou was about to say something else, she immediately said,””Let’s talk after breakfast. I’ll wait for you. ”
Yin ya said the last three words very softly, so softly that Yuan Zhou wouldn’t have been able to hear them if he didn’t have such a sharp hearing.
“Alright,” he said. Yuan Zhou nodded his head solemnly and agreed.
When he turned around and went back to the kitchen, Yuan Zhou suddenly felt lucky that his phone was always on silent mode.
The lost cell phone was lying quietly in the drawer under the countertop.
The one-hour breakfast time passed by very quickly. Yin ya stayed as she had said.
Cheng Han grabbed Zhou Jia and left Yuan Zhou’s restaurant quickly without even saying goodbye.
Then, only Yuan Zhou and Yin ya were left in the restaurant.
“Here, noodles are not nutritious for breakfast. Have an egg to replenish your energy.” Yuan Zhou handed her a warm and chubby boiled egg.
“Ah? Alright. ” Yin ya intended to refuse him, but when she saw Yuan Zhou’s serious expression, she reached out her hand and accepted it.
Only then did Yuan Zhou’s expression get better and became gentler.
Fortunately, this scene was not seen by Wu Hai. One should know that Wu Hai had once tried to eat an extra bowl of breakfast with this reason. However, Yuan Zhou’s answer was just to educate him on the nutrition of the clear broth noodle soup and seriously said that the nutrition was enough to feed an adult man.
But now, Yuan Zhou said that to Yin ya. Clearly, it varied from person to person.
“Are you free this afternoon? I’d like to use some of your time to buy a phone. ” When Yuan Zhou saw Yin ya peeling the egg with her head lowered, he still said the words that he had rehearsed in his mind several times.
“Okay, I don’t have much to do this afternoon.” Yin ya nodded her head and continued to peel the egg.
“That’s good. ” Yuan Zhou said dryly.
“Yes.” Yin ya answered him with a light “hmm.”
As it was his first time inviting someone else, Yuan Zhou didn’t have enough experience and thus didn’t know what to say next. As for Yin ya, she was a little flustered by Yuan Zhou’s sudden invitation and initiative and didn’t know what to say.
Such a silent atmosphere continued until Yin ya finished the egg and then left the restaurant after saying goodbye.
“I’m sorry I didn’t reply to your message. ” Looking at Yin ya’s back as she left, Yuan Zhou suddenly sighed and muttered softly.
“I must not make such a mistake again next time,” Yuan Zhou thought to himself and firmly remembered this mistake.
Watching Yin ya leave Taoxi road, Yuan Zhou went back to his restaurant and took out his phone carefully. Then, he went upstairs quickly.
When he arrived at his own room, Yuan Zhou drew the curtains and then said while holding the phone,””Oh, my phone. I’ll remember what you’ve done. Just go in peace.”
After saying that, Yuan Zhou smashed the phone hard on the ground. The phone bounced twice and then lay on the wooden floor quietly, intact.
“Well, the quality is pretty good.” Yuan Zhou picked up the phone and was about to smash it on the ground again. However, the screen that lit up accidentally stopped him from doing so.
“Actually, I can just turn off my phone. I don’t have to use violence.” Yuan Zhou couldn’t help giving himself a thumbs up for his wit.
She decisively turned off her phone and placed it in the innermost cabinet under the window sill.
