“A call?” Yang Chen looked confused at the unknown number displayed on the screen!
“Hello!”
“Yahoo! Yang Chen did you miss me?” An energetic voice came from the other side of the phone!
” Is that you Min Hua?” Yang Chen asked
“Yo did you forget my voice! It is clearly me Min Hua! Min Hua desu~” Min Hua replied in a carefree manner!
“Rather than forget your voice completely changed! How should I say it is like that of a girl!” Yang Chen scratched the back of his head as he spoke in the microphone.
“..”
“Ah… I guess! Well, forget about me but why do you seem so tired? ” There was on short silence before the reply from the other side.
“Hey! Min Hua I am going to commit suicide! *sob* *sob*” Yang Chen sobbed!
“Wait! what? Tell me in detail! Also, don’t do stupid things! ” Min Hua scolded Yang Chen.

Due to Si Yun’er, Yang Chen was very depressed and even nearly developed fear of girls! During these two years, Yang Chen divulged everything to Min Hua. And Min Hua was the only person to know about most of Yang Chen’s secrets. In short, he was the person who Yang Chen trusted the most.
Yang Chen sobbed his story about how he has a fiancé and how he decided to suicide to stay true to his love! Of Course Min Hua knew about Yang Chen’s crush. It was the thing which always made Min Hua regret deeply. As it was him who gave yang Chen that anime.
Yang Chen never understood the cause of his friend’s sorrow and made Min Hua the match maker who made Yang Chen meet his love!

“…”
There was a long silence before Min Hua replied: ” Yang Chen don’t worry! It’s not like you are getting married any time soon. You ate fiancé in name only. I too am coming back next week so let’s find the solution together okay! ”
“Right don’t ever think about suicide okay! Absolutely never okay! ”
“Oh.. YOU ARE COMING BACK! AMAZING, I have collected several amazing anime for you to see! ” Yang Chen was surprised at the news on Min Hua coming back that he forgot about his sorrow and started talking about anime.
They talked for 3 hours before ending the call.
“Man Talking with Min Hua is always so refreshing! ” Yang Chen happily thought!
