Who is the Stand-In? 5

Thinking like this, Zhao Jingshu didn't care that it was already past two in the morning and immediately called Meng Youning. "We're breaking up. I don't need you anymore," she said arrogantly before hanging up the phone.

Beep beep beep... The faint sound lingered in Meng Youning's ears as he couldn't help but glance at his phone and rub his ear. Did he hear correctly? Was that neurotic Zhao Jingshu letting him off the hook?

Damn!

Meng Youning couldn't contain his joy, and his previously tired mind instantly woke up. He pinched himself hard, feeling the pain and confirming that it was indeed true! He quickly covered his mouth with the blanket and burst into laughter, shaking the bed with his amusement.

After a while, he calmed down, took a deep breath, and called Zhao Jingshu back, this time recording the call in advance. "Are you serious? You don't need me anymore, you want to break up?" he asked, his voice sounding a bit strange due to suppressing his excitement.
