When Cai Wenxin saw the call, she thought it was work-related and immediately answered, "Xiaoqu, what's..."
"Wenxin, why did it take you so long to answer? Are you okay?"
Xiaoqu's voice came from the other end, leaving Cai Wenxin bewildered, "I was just taking a shower. Why are you calling me in such a hurry? Did something go wrong at work?"
"No, no!"
Xiaoqu quickly said, "Just now, police cars arrived at the company's building. I heard there was a murder case on the small path behind our company. A cleaning lady reported it to the police. I remember you said you always take that path. I was worried something happened to you, so I called you right away. It's good to hear you're alright."
Upon hearing this, Cai Wenxin's expression instantly froze. Just out of the shower, her previously flushed cheeks turned deathly pale, "A... a murder case?"
She heard her own voice shaking.
