It was only when Yan Ling returned home that she discovered a message that Qi Yunjue had sent her several hours earlier.
The message was simple, he was reassuring her of his safety and was explaining that the suddenness of the situation had necessitated his abrupt departure. After resolving the matter, he would return home immediately.
After seeing this message from Qi Yunjue, Yan Ling felt somewhat relieved.
But still curious about his sudden trip abroad, she did not hesitate to send a message back to him, asking what exactly had happened?
After sending the message, she waited for a minute or two but received no reply.
Yan Ling's heart, which had finally settled, started to race again. She quickly made a video call to him.
Time slipped by without any response on the other end.
Just as she was about to end the video request, he suddenly answered.
Upon seeing his dark expression, Yan Ling was startled, immediately sitting up straight.
