Tang Zhimo who was silent also appeared astonished upon hearing his young sister's question.
He quickly figured Nangong Mu must have mentioned something of this sort to his younger sister.
"Cough. The President probably couldn't answer the phone because he's in a meeting." Secretary Ruan coughed at the uncomfortable topic and quickly made up an excuse to mediate the awkward situation.
Would their President be doing something naughty in the afternoon? No way. Their President was a serious workaholic. He must have missed the phone call because he was in a meeting.
"You mean he didn't pick up the phone not because he's with Mommy but because of a meeting?" Little Zhixi tilted her head back to regard Secretary Ruan in the eyes. Her beautifully-arched eyebrows twitched into a tiny frown.
"Hmm, yes, that must be the case." Secretary Ruan nodded frantically.
"Unforgivable." Frustrated, Tang Zhixi gave a snort of contempt.
It was understandable if the man did not answer because he was with Mommy. However, he refused to pick up the phone just for a meeting. It was definitely an unforgivable mistake.

Both Secretary Ruan and the receptionist were at a loss for words.
Tang Zhimo nodded, smiling.
"Elder Brother, what if you call him again with your phone? We'll leave right away and stop looking for him if he doesn't pick up." Tang Zhixi was upset. She was trying to say that infuriating her came with severe consequences.
He looked at her helplessly but could not refuse her request in the end. He fished out his phone to give Ye Lanchen another call.
The man's phone started ringing again in Chu Wuyou's room.
"It's your phone again. It must be urgent." She was getting breathless under the attack of his incessant kisses. At the sound of the ringtone, she tried to push him away forcefully.
He ignored the incoming call completely and had already cast the phone away anyway.
He did not think there was anything else more urgent than what he was doing now.
She sighed silently. This man was beyond redemption.
The phone continued ringing.
In actuality, the phone had not been thrown too far away. She stole a glance of the phone out of the corners of her eyes.
A series of numbers appeared on the phone screen.
Chu Wuyou was completely stunned upon seeing the familiar numbers. Her entire body froze.
Was that not Zhimo's phone number?! Was Zhimo trying to call Ye Lanchen?
The man who was startled upon detecting her reaction finally paused for a brief second."What's wrong? Did I hurt you?"
He thought he had been too ferocious and accidentally hurt her in the process.
However, he quickly noticed she was staring at the direction of his phone, looking slightly astonished and frightened.
Based on his understanding, this cool-headed woman would not be easily alarmed.
He followed her gaze and discovered the phone number too.
The man with photographic memory narrowed his eyes within seconds. He deliberately looked for Tang Zhimo's phone number in her phone the other night thus he recognized it at first glance.
He was confident of his observation upon seeing the woman's peculiar reaction.
Ye Lanchen suddenly rose to his feet to pick up the phone from the ground.
His lips twitched into a sarcastic smile as he accepted the call without hesitation. He was curious why Tang Zhimo tried to reach him.
