Chapter 618: Lies

"Hello?"

"It's me."

Recognizing the voice of Pei Wenping on the other end of the line, Chen Yi instantly became much more awake, his tone filled with concern and tension, "Wenping? What's happened?"

Since their divorce, Pei Wenping had called him on fewer occasions than he could count on one hand, let alone in the dead of night.

It couldn't just be because she couldn't sleep and wanted to chat, although he wished it were so.

Pei Wenping didn't want to call her ex-husband in the middle of the night either, but her straightforward nature meant she couldn't keep things to herself. Without making this call, she wouldn't be able to sleep at all.

"Have you been trading stocks recently?"

A phone call in the middle of the night just to ask this?

Chen Yi's mind was a bit foggy, but he quickly replied, "Yes, I have. What about it?"

"Stop trading stocks!"
