The Love Book

Chapter 415: Ann Shi’s Desert Adventure



Although her eyes were closed, Phoebe Barnes was up all night and didn’t stir.

She admitted that she couldn’t sleep mostly because of his words.

With her back pressed against the man’s chest, she could clearly feel his strong heartbeat. She didn’t know if he had slept or not, but when he left, she knew.

Pretending not to be awake until she heard the sound of the door closing, she slowly opened her eyes, and through the gap in the curtains, she could see the already bright sky outside.

The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to its customers.

Opened the phone to see the time before she got up and washed up, the whole person did not look very energetic.

After that night, Phoebe Barnes didn’t see Kemp Ross for a long time. She didn’t count how long it had been, but it had been most of a month, as if she had suddenly disappeared without even calling.

She was busy filming and preparing for Feng’s big movie, so she didn’t have time to spare too much time to think about him.

Still, when we eat at night, Qiao Ranran will mention it from time to time, asking where he went, she does not know naturally, there is no way to answer.

At the busiest time, she was also distracted by another matter.

John Lu told her that Ann Shi had been bitten by a snake while filming in the desert. Although there was a doctor in the team accompanying her, she couldn’t help but be a little worried and took advantage of the break to make a phone call.

“Ann Shi, are you okay?”

“Cough …” Before she heard any words, she heard the man coughing first, seemingly not very sick.

The worry in her heart deepened slightly, “Are you okay?”

“No, cough … I’m fine.” The man swallowed, his voice became somewhat coarse, as if he did not want her to worry, and pursed his lips again to muffle a few coughs in a small voice, and said, “Didn’t I tell John Lu to tell you that I’m fine?”

Phoebe Barnes held the phone and frowned, “What do you think he could tell me? Any more serious problems come out of his mouth like a joke, how do I know if you’re okay over there.”

The desert environment can be known without thinking about it, although the usual filming environment is also very harsh, but this kind of filming no less than an expedition is undoubtedly a challenge for a pampered actor like him.

As a friend, it was impossible for her not to worry.

“I’m really okay, I’m resting in an indigenous family’s home right now.”

Phoebe Barnes, “Are you sure you’re okay? Coughing so hard, are you planning to get all sick over there and then come back?”

The man laughed muffled, “I’m not that delicate, it’s just that the sand is so heavy and the climate is so hot that my throat tends to dry out, I’ll be fine after I rest.”

Saying that, he coughed a few more times.

Although he said it lightly, Phoebe Barnes could still hear what he was holding back, and her eyebrows knitted tighter, “Why don’t you go to a nearby hospital and take a few days off, otherwise if you collapse, you won’t be able to shoot later.”

Ann Shi laughed lightly, “Phoebe, it’s really not that serious, the doctors accompanying us are fully prepared with medicine, besides, the nearest regular hospital here and back takes four or five days, there is no need to go to that trouble.”

Four or five days?

Phoebe Barnes’ face changed slightly.

They were just making a documentary? Why did it feel like they were going on an expedition to no man’s land? What kind of a team would not even want their lives for the sake of filming.

Her heart sank, her tone suddenly became serious, “Ann Shi, are you really making a film?”

There was silence for two seconds before the man said, “Why do you ask? What else could I be doing if not filming?”Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

Phoebe Barnes’ eyes flickered for a moment and she smiled lightly, “No, it just seems a little strange, you should rest first.”

“Hmm.”

Just as she was about to hang up, she suddenly remembered something and said, “By the way, Ann Shi, I … met your father.”

She thought about it and thought she should tell him.

A silence seemed to fall over there, and only after half a minute did the man’s voice come out, “What did he say to you?”

“Uh, nothing.” Thinking about those conversations made her feel awkward and she was busy diverting her attention, “He picked me to do his movie.”

“I’m sorry that I never told you about this, and I hope you won’t mind if he says anything inappropriate.”

“Director Feng is very nice, he didn’t make things difficult for me.”

After hanging up the phone, she dialed another one to John Lu by hand.

Without waiting for his nonsense, she directly asked, “John Lu, what exactly is Ann Shi doing over there?”

John Lu said in a light voice over there: “Don’t you know? He’s not going over there to get a tan anyway.”

Phoebe Barnes narrowed her eyes slightly, “Since I’m calling you to inquire, I naturally say I don’t believe that.

“The truth probably you will not love to hear, then this young man better hang up.”

“…”

Phoebe Barnes gritted her teeth, “John Lu!”

A man’s gangly laugh came from the phone, and John Lu said leisurely, “Can’t you use your head to think about it? Who would be able to get him into a place like that? There are not even a few indigenous people in that shitty place, not to mention filming, and it took a lot of effort to make the call.”

The woman’s face suddenly changed, who can have the ability?

There are obviously words in these words, and it is obvious that they are also related to her.

A silver light suddenly flashed in her brain, her voice lowered, “Is he?”

“This young man does not mean that.” John Lu suddenly played dumb.

Phoebe Barnes didn’t want to take him seriously and asked in a cold voice, “Didn’t you say you were with a team? So many people are fine?”

John Lu lazy smile, carelessly recounted, “Who said nothing, dozens of people, before reaching the location, one after another sick a lot, thanks to his usual not often run such places, otherwise it is estimated to break in the halfway.”

The woman clenched her fingers, biting her lip, and was silent for a long time before she whispered, “I know.”

John Lu hung up the phone over there, looked at the phone, hooked thin lips, beautiful white face all playful smile.

The fact is that he is not exaggerating, there is indeed such a situation, he just see his buddy so painstakingly, so intend to help him again.

Here, Phoebe Barnes stared at her phone, pressed a few numbers, hesitated for a few seconds, and then deleted them all, then put them in her pocket and turned to the director.

Ross Group building first floor lobby.

The slender and delicate figure walked to the reception desk, took off the mask, and spoke indifferently to the receptionist, “I’m looking for Ross General.”

The two receptionists, still the same two from three years ago, recognized her at once and froze for several seconds before nodding in panic and picking up the phone to call the president’s office.

But after ringing for a long time, no one answered.

The receptionist gave Phoebe Barnes an awkward look and dialed again, still no answer.

“Sorry … Miss Barnes, the president does not seem to be in.”
