Chapter 66: The Girl Who Would Burst Into Tears the Moment She Left Him...

Therefore, for half a day, his personal phone had remained on, the ringtone never muted, for fear he might miss a call. Yet... his private phone had not rung once.

At this thought, Shen Hanzhi’s brows furrowed even tighter.

...

Nearby, Zhou Bei noticed Shen Hanzhi’s silence and couldn’t help but glance at his phone. He immediately spotted a selfie on WeChat and paused, suddenly realizing something.

“Miss Lin hasn’t called, so that probably means everything’s going smoothly for her.” After a busy morning, Zhou Bei remembered that Miss Lin was stepping into a new environment for the first time today and wondered if she might struggle to adapt. But since she hadn’t called, it must mean things were going well, so he didn’t worry.

After all, Ron was older and would take good care of her.

As Zhou Bei spoke, Shen Hanzhi snapped out of his reverie, shifted his gaze to Zhou Bei, and responded with a faint, indifferent “Mm,” his expression completely nonchalant, as if he hadn’t just been staring at his phone.

He put the phone aside and accepted the lunch Zhou Bei brought him, his face impassive.

When lunch was finished, Shen Hanzhi prepared to head out for his next appointment. That afternoon, he needed to visit the entertainment company under his name.

Zhou Bei went downstairs to get the car ready, while Shen Hanzhi leaned back in his office chair, closed his eyes, and took a brief rest.

Suddenly, the phone on his desk emitted a soft chime. The man’s eyes snapped open; he reached for the phone and checked it—only to find a spam message.

His handsome features grew colder; he deleted the message with a frosty expression and set the phone down again.

Watching the motionless phone, Shen Hanzhi slowly narrowed his eyes.

Unbidden, an image of Lin Nanxun’s frightened, tearful face rose in his mind.

A tightness seized his chest, his complexion darkening.

What was happening to him?

She hadn’t called to bother him, and yet he felt oddly uneasy, unable to shake the thought—was she being bullied, was she frightened?

The more he thought about it, the less peace he found.

When had he become so prone to worry?

Shen Hanzhi stared at his phone for a long time, his face growing steadily gloomier.

At last, he reached out, picked up the phone, opened WeChat, and found Ron in his contacts, dialing a video call directly.

The video call rang for a while before finally being answered.

On the screen appeared Ron’s startled face.

“Mr. Shen?” Ron’s voice was full of astonishment, as if he couldn’t believe the famously aloof Mr. Shen would call him—let alone via video.

Shen Hanzhi stared at the screen for two seconds before moving his lips to ask,

“How is she?”

Ron took a moment to respond, then smiled confidently.

“She’s doing great. She’s completely immersed in our wonderful work atmosphere—absolutely no problems at all.”

Absolutely no problems?

Upon hearing Ron’s words, Shen Hanzhi’s brows knitted, doubt flickering across his handsome features.

That timid girl, who clung to him even in sleep and would tear up if separated from him, was now left for the first time in a strange place—how could there possibly be no problems at all?
