The sound of drinking water came from the other end of the phone.
Yun Chu paused for a moment.
"Hmm." Maybe it was because she paused that Tan Jincheng gave a slight response.
But, a single "hmm"—what does that even mean?
Yun Chu hesitated again before continuing, "I just wanted to ask if there are any updates on the investigation regarding my uncle?"
"Hmm."
Another "hmm," followed by the unexpected sound of something being rubbed.
He must be toweling his hair.
Yun Chu bit her lip once more.
She felt like whenever she closed her eyes, her mind was filled with scenes related to him, images that lingered and wouldn't fade away.
Any sound she heard from the phone, her brain could automatically associate and turn into certain images.
Yun Chu thought her behavior was somewhat... pathetic.
She didn't know if it was emotionally pathetic or some other kind.
"Is there really any news?" Yun Chu pondered for a bit before asking softly.
