The Whole Internet is Shipping Me with My Ex-Boyfriend-Chapter 175: All Out

Quan Jin mocked himself, important person...

Important people would never look for him.

Probably would never look for him in this lifetime.

Quan Jin calmly drank tea: "It doesn’t matter."

Tu Kuan asked: "Aren’t you going to take a look?" 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"If I do look, I might not be able to let go of things over there. Would you still want me to check then?" Quan Jin chuckled lightly.

No one could call his phone from the outside, so Tu Kuan was lying to him.

There were no calls.

Tu Kuan immediately agreed: "Then it’s better if you don’t look. Stay here and receive treatment properly; your body is too weak to handle more stress. Otherwise, you might not make it. Extending your life is the most important thing for you now."

Tu Kuan wasn’t trying to scare Quan Jin.

And Quan Jin also knew that every word Tu Kuan said was true.

He didn’t have much time left.

He could count his remaining days on his fingers.

He hadn’t finished his tea. He poured it back into the teapot and stood up: "Terrible taste, play chess with me."

"Alright, let’s go." For once, Quan Jin was so cooperative, Tu Kuan didn’t complain and agreed to play an endlessly boring game of Gomoku with him.

The Gomoku game ended quickly, but they blocked each other’s pieces to prolong the game.

Tu Kuan asked about Quan Jin’s condition today, and Quan Jin answered one by one. When Tu Kuan asked: "Why aren’t you looking in the mirror today?"

Quan Jin placed the white stone: "I looked in the morning, it’s okay."

Tu Kuan: "Couldn’t sleep again last night?"

"Yes," Quan Jin admitted.

"Didn’t sleep at all?"

"Slept for two hours."

Tu Kuan remained silent for a few minutes.

At this moment, Tu Kuan’s phone rang, breaking the silence, and Quan Jin reminded him: "Your work is calling."

Tu Kuan snapped back: "What?"

Quan Jin smirked: "Your phone is ringing."

"Oh... I thought it was your phone." Tu Kuan said as he fumbled with his phone, looking at the caller ID.

Then Quan Jin told the truth: "I’ve set up software on my phone, so no one can reach me."

After speaking, Quan Jin fiddled with the white stone, thinking about how to block Tu Kuan’s moves.

Before Tu Kuan went to answer the call, he chuckled: "Didn’t someone just call you? Honestly, you didn’t think I was lying, did you? Someone did call you."

After saying that, Tu Kuan went aside to take the call.

Quan Jin looked indifferent, momentarily contemplating how to block Tu Kuan’s black stones, his hand holding a piece hovering mid-air.

Suddenly—

The piece inexplicably slipped from his hand, disrupting the orderly game board.

Only one person could get through to him—that was Gu Yuan.

But he hadn’t dared hope that Gu Yuan would ever call him during this time.

He suddenly stood up and dashed out.

Tu Kuan, who was on the phone, was startled by Quan Jin’s sudden outburst, and shouted toward his retreating back: "Where are you going?"

No response came.

Fearing something had gone wrong, Tu Kuan hurriedly apologized to the person on the other end and rushed after him.

In the courtyard under the atrium, Quan Jin’s phone lay quietly on the jade-engraved table. Tu Kuan had placed it there earlier, and Quan Jin hadn’t glanced at it.

Now, he rushed over and urgently picked up the phone.

There were two missed calls indicated by the red dot on the screen.

Quan Jin was about to check them.

At that moment, the phone suddenly started buzzing in his palm.

A call was coming in.

Quan Jin’s fingertips trembled slightly as he saw the name of the caller on the screen—Gu Yuan...

The wind around him seemed to quiet down, and the world became blank.

—He had just picked up the phone.

—She had just happened to call.
