After rejecting my celebrity husband

Chapter 1795: Chapter 1799: Don’t Hang Up

Leng Lin sighed softly, ”Everyone sit down, the truth will soon be revealed.”

Just now, he had been thinking why, at this critical moment, Luo Xiaoqian suddenly rejected the marriage. Hearing the gunshots outside, he suddenly realized that something must have changed.

Everyone sat down in their respective places, but Mo Bei anxiously walked over to the window and looked out at the sea.

In the room just now, Mo Bei had been pondering over the recent events.

At first, she had speculated about what Jiao Yang could have said to Luo Xiaoqian over the phone to change her mind. She even wondered if Jiao Yang had proposed to Luo Xiaoqian, but the gunshots just now told her that things were not that simple.

Recalling Luo Xiaoqian’s expression and demeanor while on the phone, an ominous feeling rose in her heart.

She hesitated for a moment before finally dialing Jiao Yang’s number.

A moment later, the call connected.

No ringtone, no music, just the simplest connection sound.

Beep—

Beep—

...

It rang several times without being answered.

Counting the beeps from the other side, she counted to the sixth beep, her heart already in her throat.

Having spent several days with Jiao Yang, she knew him well. Although he seemed carefree, deep down he had an aristocratic demeanor, quite the gentleman. Unless something unusual happened, he would surely answer by the third ring.

What on earth happened?

Her heart twisted with anxiety, Mo Bei’s fingers were pale from gripping the phone so tightly.

On the other end of the line.

The morning sunlight shone through the dusty curtains, casting beams of white light into the dim factory, with dust visibly flying within them.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

On the iron-framed bed, the phone beside Jiao Yang’s head vibrated, his eyelashes trembled lightly, and he slowly opened his eyes.

Turning his face, he glanced around, and his gaze quickly fixed on the phone beside his head.

With difficulty, he turned his face and lifted his head to look at the screen.

On the phone screen, the words ”Mo Bei” were particularly striking.

Jiao Yang tried to struggle, but his hands, feet, and body were tightly bound, unable to move. He looked at the phone, slowly edging his head closer to it.

Less than two centimeters away from the phone, he couldn’t move any further.

His hands were restrained. If he wanted to make a call, it would be much more difficult, almost impossible. But answering a call was different; he just needed to find a way to press the answer button.

”Xiao Bei, please don’t hang up, please don’t hang up...”

Muttering softly, Jiao Yang tugged hard at the leather strap binding him, gritting his teeth, he moved his body towards the phone again.

Three centimeters, two centimeters, one centimeter...

Finally, his chin touched the vibrating phone.

With a glance at the screen, Jiao Yang cautiously stuck out his tongue, reaching towards the heat-sensitive touchscreen.

On this end, Mo Bei gripped her phone tightly.

Answer it quickly, Jiao Yang, answer the phone, answer it quickly...

In her heart, she prayed over and over.

Bleep bleep bleep...

After a short signal sound, the call was directly disconnected.

Mo Bei lowered her phone, looking at the disconnected call, pressed her lips together, and ultimately, with reluctance, dialed again.

No matter what, she had to find out the answer from his mouth.

At the other end, Jiao Yang watched the phone dim, a shadow passing over his eyes.
