"So, you finally remembered to call me, you rascal? With all those companies to manage, you instead spend money on a boat to go play around on the ocean. You're just asking for trouble!"
"And another thing—how do you manage to drop a perfectly good phone into the ocean? You've really outdone yourself. Where are you now? How many more days until you're home?"
Hearing his mom's nagging, Fang Chenyi froze for a moment before it dawned on him: she obviously didn't know he had been missing.
'That's for the best. At least I don't have to make them worry.'
He took a deep breath, composed himself, and then spoke in a deliberately lighthearted tone.
"Ah, I wasn't paying attention, and next thing I knew, the phone was in the ocean. As for where we are... uh... I'm not sure. Xiaotian and the others have been navigating, but we should be getting close. Ten days at the most, maybe eight."
