Si Weimin was drawn by her words. Approaching, he discovered that the incoming call had Li City's area code. He was stunned for a moment, his face quickly became peculiar.
Yuan Caizhen greeted again and seeing no one answered, was preparing to hang up. However, Si Weimin took the phone from her. No one answered yet, so he tentatively called out, "Sister-in-law, is that you?"
"Sister-in-law?" Yuan Caizhen exclaimed in surprise.
Si Weimin motioned for his wife to be quiet, and then directed his question at the phone again: "Sister-in-law, is it you? This is Weimin."
Just after he spoke, a disoriented voice came from the other end, carrying a slight tremor. "Weimin, it's really you! I... I heard a woman's voice just now and thought I dialed the wrong number. Look, after so many years, I can't recognize your voice anymore."
