1717 She Didn't Turn Off Her Phone, She Blocked Him
"I can do it in 50 minutes if you're in a hurry."
He couldn't help but smile. His Adam's apple bobbed, but his gaze never left Qiao Nian. Leaning back, he said methodically, "No need. I'm not in a hurry."
"Okay." Qiao Nian didn't want to be too fast, lest her wrists ache the next day. She responded and put her hands back on the keyboard. Her voice was neither fast nor slow. "Wait for me."
Ten minutes later.
Qiao Nian had already created the software prototype. However, this was only the beginning. She still needed to perfect it.
She was typing a code when her phone rang again.
Qiao Nian hated it the most when someone called while she was writing code. She suppressed the unhappiness between her brows and reached for her phone. She looked down.
It was the same unknown number as before.
Her eyelids twitched.
No answer.
However, the other party was very persistent and called again.
She saw the number on the phone screen jump up again.
Qiao Nian smirked, her eyes frivolous. She immediately blocked the harassing number.
The world was finally quiet!
She didn't care about this interlude anymore. After putting her phone back, she focused on writing a third of the code on the computer.

Outside.
"Why aren't you picking up?" Mo Dong called the second time, but the other party still didn't pick up.
He took the phone away and tried a third call.
This time, there was a more direct response.
A pleasant female voice came from the phone. "I'm sorry, the number you dialed is switched off!"
"Switched off?" Mo Dong was stunned. His intuition told him that it was impossible. "So fast?"
He remembered that he had called three times in a row. Even if the other party's phone was switched off, it was impossible to turn it off in a second...
He wasn't a fool.
With a little thought, he basically understood what was going on.
"She didn't turn off her phone. She just blocked me!"
Mo Dong was speechless.
Unwilling, he tried again. It was the same as before. Her phone was switched off, and he couldn't get through.
Basically, after every call, there was no busy tone. Immediately, a mechanical female voice informed him that the number he called was switched off.
This time, no matter how unwilling Mo Dong was, he could only give up.
He looked up Luo Qing's message and compared it to the number he had dialed. It was the same number.
In other words, his first call was not wrong.
However, the voice was too familiar. He almost thought it was Master Wang!
After hanging up, he asked Luo Qing if he had given him the wrong number. He then asked him to send him the phone number of the very good computer coder...
Mo Dong stood rooted to the ground, unsure if he should go in or wait outside and try to call the number again.
At this moment.
His phone vibrated.
Mo Dong thought that the other party had returned his call. His eyes lit up and he looked over excitedly. However, he realized that it was not a call, but a new message notification.
He quickly opened the new message nonchalantly.
[Luo Qing: Oh right, I forgot to tell you. Miss Qiao is very busy. Don't keep calling her to harass her. She still hasn't answered your call. Call her later. If you really can't get her, send her a message and say that you're my friend and you hope she can help you.]
