"Momo, why haven't you come home? Did something happen? I've had a twitch in my right eyelid since the day before yesterday," Deng Huixu's voice was filled with anxiety. She knew that Jin Mo's job sometimes made it impossible to answer the phone, and she might be discussing collaborations or designing drafts till late at night, so Deng Huixu had been holding back from disturbing her.
But it had been three days now, and Jin Mo still hadn't come home, so Deng Huixu couldn't hold back anymore.
"Grandma, I'm fine. A colleague is sick, and I'm taking care of her. I haven't been able to come back these days. Please be careful on your own at home, and I'll return as soon as I can," Jin Mo explained, trying to sound casual.
"Is that so? Then make sure you rest well, don't tire yourself out. I'm fine here, don't worry, I'll take good care of myself," Deng Huixu said, feeling relieved, and her tone became more cheerful.
