“喂？谁啊这是？”蔡菲对着手机吼了一声，声音卡在喉咙里，有点发紧。沙发那头还在响，她皱着眉走过去，一把夺过手机，按下拒接键。手机却像中了邪似的，瞬间又响起来，还是那个号码，一遍又一遍。她抓着手机，像手里攥着烫手山芋，眼神有点躲闪。

“喂？喂？没人接啊？”接通了，电话那头还是没声音，就传来一阵电流的嘶嘶声，听得人心烦。蔡菲把手机扔回沙发上，心想这谁啊，打电话都不说话，骚扰电话还玩这么新潮的？

正烦着呢，微信跳出来一条消息，是江流。她点开一看，也就一句话：“晚上有空一起吃个饭？”

蔡菲盯着那行字看了几秒，心里有点嘀咕。江流是她相亲对象，两人第一次见面是在上次公司的年会上，他给她留了微信，后来偶尔会发几句 Turns out, communication was just the tip of the iceberg. He became a familiar figure in her daily life, accompanying her to watch exhibitions, play games, and even cook. Slowly, they started to get closer.

But tonight, as the phone rang persistently and the message from Jiang Liu appeared, she hesitated. He was always a bit reserved, but she had to admit, his silence had a kind of stability. Tonight, however, his message seemed out of place, like a sudden interruption in a well-ordered life.

She typed back, "What about dinner? Where and what time?" Before sending it, she felt a slight wave of anxiety. What if he wanted to talk about something serious? Or what if he just wanted to cancel?
