Chapter 809: Missing for Two Days

“How could you say I’m unreachable?

I’m just at home.

You can find me if you want.”

Lu Zhenzhen pretended to reach for her coffee, but as she lifted her body slightly, her elbow was nudged, and without Gao Zhe even holding her, she fell back into his arms.

“Quite a coincidence.”

Gao Zhe smiled mysteriously, “It just happened to be those two days when I was on a business trip that I couldn’t reach you.

No matter when I called, you weren’t in the service area, and the two daily video calls stopped.

Tell me, where in your house does the signal disappear?”

“Uh…

well, it’s a long story?”

Was she asking him?

Gao Zhe leisurely looked at her, his gaze sharp, as if Lu Zhenzhen could never hide from him.

Clearly able to see through her with just one glance, yet deliberately pretending to watch her concoct stories.

Lu Zhenzhen deflated and smacked his chest, “The phone fell into the pool, so there was no signal for those two days.

Later I bought a new phone and called you, didn’t I?”

Gao Zhe’s eyebrows eased slightly, but his expression still wasn’t good.

She did call him, but by then he had already arrived at the Lu Family.

If he hadn’t hurriedly rushed back, headed straight to the Lu Family after landing, and happened to see her draining the pool and fishing out the old phone from the mud, he would’ve thought she had hidden herself in some nook or cranny.

“I promise, I will absolutely not turn off my phone again.”

Lu Zhenzhen raised her hand and vowed, the promise flowing effortlessly, and Gao Zhe was already immune to her rascal ways.

He caught her hand, interlacing his fingers with hers, bending them down, and squeezed her knuckles hard.

Lu Zhenzhen winced in pain.

Gao Zhe pulled her up onto his lap and playfully bit her nose.

Annoyed, he said, “Stop trying to fool me.

It’s not the first time you’ve been unreachable.

When have you ever quickly admitted your fault?

Dare to do it again, and if I don’t check you, you’re really going to be out of control.”

Lu Zhenzhen isn’t one to listen obediently; as soon as she opened her mouth, before she could speak, Gao Zhe’s next words immediately deflated the little bit of defiance she had built up.

“I’ve told you before, stop messing with those broken computers of yours, but you just won’t listen.”

Lu Zhenzhen’s heart skipped a beat, she glanced at him weakly, and quickly lay on his chest.

“I won’t touch it.

I said I won’t, and I won’t.

I’m being so good.”

Gao Zhe knew well that few words of truth came from her mouth, yet he didn’t expose her.

Ever since they were young, he couldn’t bring himself to be strict with her.

He pulled out the hair trapped under Lu Zhenzhen, tucking it behind her ear, “Alright, stop clinging.

I have to go to work.”

“At this hour, what work?” Lu Zhenzhen glanced at the time, wrapped her arms around his neck to pull him down, brushed her lips against his but didn’t kiss, teasingly saying, “Were you just trying to kiss me?”

Gao Zhe pulled her hands down; she hugged him again, he pulled again, she hugged again, and being tugged back and forth annoyed her so much that she let out a few irritated grunts.

He stopped moving, pushed her elbow up to make it more convenient for her to hold him.

“I wasn’t.”

“Yeah, right.”

Lu Zhenzhen bit him, and as she bit him, it became a kiss.

Closing her eyes with great confidence as she tilted her head to find an angle, a hand supported her at the nape, and Gao Zhe took the initiative, deepening the kiss.

Lu Zhenzhen secretly smiled, sneaking a peek at him.

Thankfully, Gao Zhe had his eyes closed, not noticing the concern in hers.

She indeed went missing for two days, after Nan Jiaojiao had the accident.
