Chapter 5 Don't Whine at Midnight
Chapter 5 Don't Whine at Midnight
The failure of unblocking the phone just adds to her anger. Pissed off at the flowerbed along the road
covered by thick snow, she kicks it, gnashing her teeth, “This has definitely not been my day!”
Fortunately, it’s not far away from the apartment she lives in. So Jenny walks back to the apartment
suffering the cold all the way.
Being a freshman in Jade Pictures, she couldn’t be offered a great apartment. It’s been over a month
since the elevator in the apartment broke down. Of course no one fixes it today. She has to climb the
stairs to the tenth floor.
The phone vibrates in the pocket of the down coat while Jenny is climbing out of breath.
It’s from a stranger.
Raising her willowy eyebrows, Jenny slides to the answering side with her round finger. Before she
even says hello, a sexy but cold voice speaks on the other side of the phone, “Let’s exchange the
phone at Diffuse Coffee at 10:30 tomorrow.”
“Why the hell do we exchange the phone? What’s wrong with you?” The angry Jenny gets irritated by
this weird word, “You need some pills for this. Do not whine at midnight!” Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
She hangs up the phone after finishing the yelling.
Luke holds his phone tight in his hand, knitting his eyebrows, in the Guanlan Lake Mansion.
Did that woman yell at him just now?
Sitting next to him in a dandiacal way is George, Luke’s good friend. George is throwing cherries into
his mouth casually. He gets curious about the yelling from the woman on the other side of the phone.
“Ah ha!” cries George, leaning his body to Luke. He squints with his flirting eyes, “How dare a woman
yell at our dear Luke! She got guts!”
Luke squints down at George and twitches his thin lips, “Aren’t the cherries big enough to clog your
mouth?”
This low and cold voice gives George a shiver.
“Hey! I’m just thinking what you did is useless!” George moves backward, saying, “I can find out her
address for you. You take the phone from her. That’s it. What’s the point in asking her out to change the
phone tomorrow?”
“Unless...” stops George on purpose. He looks at Luke and asks, “Do you have a crush on her?”
“Get out!”
“Get out! I will!” George jumps to the sofa in front of him with that bowl of cherries.
He is flashing his phone as he is eating cherries.
All of a sudden, George stops and immediately moves close to Luke with his phone, saying, “Look, our
dear and adorable Luke is on the news, for the first time. How rare!
Luke grabs his phone to check the news, frowning more anxiously.
As reported in the news, new artist Jenny bought suspicious thing at a pharmacy late at night. Below
this dense text posts a clear big picture of their occasional encounter at the cashier counter, which
happened before.
In this angle shot by the journalist, it seems she snuggles against him.
He skims the comment below the hot news. Those insulting comments upset Luke. He turns around
and looks at him, asking, “How’s John?
“I talked to him on the phone just now. He’s okay.” answers George sitting on the sofa with his legs
crossing. He can’t help laughing thinking of what his dude said, “He said the medicine was too strong
and he gets a bit weak.”
Luke’s face falls sharply, glaring at George.
George hides his dandiacal smile immediately and says to Luke seriously, “Dude, don’t worry. I have
sent three groups of people to different harbors and airports. They’re absolutely not gonna leave this
city!”
The gloomy-looking man gives no response, holding the phone tight in his slender hand.
