C2565 Jiang Ci Was Relieved
"No." Huo Yan immediately explained, saying, "Maybe it's because of an unknown number that he did not pick up. I will send him a message."
As she spoke, Huo Yan immediately sent a message.
[Ci, it is me, Huo Yan. Can you answer the phone?]
After the message was successfully sent, it was as if a stone had sunk into the ocean. There was no response.
Huo Yan was about to cry.
The female boss did not believe her anymore and snatched the phone. "I knew you were a liar. I will call the police now."
"Don't! I really am not a swindler. Send someone to come with me to get it. I'll give you double, okay?"
"Only a ghost would believe you!"
The female boss was about to call the police. Just as she was about to dial the number, her phone rang.
It was Jiang Ci's number.
Seeing this, Huo Yan immediately said, "He called."
The female boss was stunned for a moment before answering, "Hello..."
A man's clear and cold voice came from the other side, "Who are you? Where's Huo Yan?"
The female boss looked at the incomparably awkward girl in front of her and asked, "You are called Huo Yan?"
Huo Yan nodded her head.
The female boss directly said, "You are his boyfriend, right? She didn't bring any money with her when she came to our restaurant. You can pay for her. Otherwise, I will call the police."
"Give her the phone." The man's voice was exceptionally cold, and the female boss was a little scared when she heard it. She immediately passed the phone to Huo Yan.
Huo Yan took the phone and said apologetically, "Ci, I'm sorry. I called my brother, but he didn't answer..."
"Tell me the address. I'll be right there."
Huo Yan immediately said the address and then said, "Thank you, Ci. Sorry to trouble you."
"Wait for me."
After hanging up the phone, Huo Yan handed the phone to the female boss.
Not knowing whether it was because she felt embarrassed or wronged, the girl suddenly cried.
The female boss was stunned. "You... Why are you crying? He's not coming?"
"He... will be here soon..." Huo Yan choked on her words.
"Then why are you crying?"
Huo Yan pursed her lips and did not say anything. She could not stop her tears and thought that she would never come to this restaurant to eat again in the future.
Looking at the girl's tearful appearance and thinking about the man's cold voice on the phone, the female boss seemed to understand something.
The man was so cold, the girl should be scared.
Twenty minutes later.
Jiang Ci walked into the restaurant. He was wearing a black coat, tall and handsome, and extraordinarily handsome. He immediately attracted the attention of all the girls in the restaurant.
"Wow! He's so handsome!"
"Ahhhhh! So handsome!"
The female boss was stunned.
Having opened a restaurant for so many years, this was the first time she had seen such a handsome man!
Jiang Ci walked over and looked coldly at Huo Yan. Seeing her teary eyes, he immediately questioned the female boss, "What did you do to her?"
The female boss finally came back to her senses and immediately said, "I... I didn't do anything. She cried after picking up your call. She must have been scared by you."
A man was handsome, but he was too cold, like an iceberg.
"No." Huo Yan opened her mouth and said, "I... I just feel that it is too embarrassing."
"Chi Yi, pay." Jiang Ci instructed.
Chi Yi immediately asked the female boss, "How much?"
The female boss replied, "560 dollars."
Chi Yi immediately paid.
Jiang Ci looked at Huo Yan and his voice became much gentler, "Let's go."
"Yes, sir." Huo Yan lowered her head and followed him out of the restaurant.
"Sorry to trouble you, Ci."
"Why didn't you bring anything with you when you went out?" Jiang Ci asked. There was no blaming tone in his voice.
Huo Yan blushed and said awkwardly, "I was thinking about something else at that time. I was careless... and forgot."
"Let's go. I'll send you back."
"No need. Ci, you go ahead with your work. I'll go back myself."
"I'll send you back."
In the end, Jiang Ci still sent Huo Yan back.
