old mrs. lu saw her hesitation and frowned.
“what’s wrong? are you afraid that your mom will be worried? give me your home phone number, grandma will call your mom and ask! she didn’t want to go home to see her daughter, and now her daughter was not allowed to eat here? do you still have any respect for your mother?”
luo chenxi dared not allow her to make the call.
she didn’t even know where lu wenjun was!
“that didn’t happen. i also wanted to have dinner with you, grandma,” he said. i’m just afraid that uncle and aunt will be unhappy.”
old mrs. lu snorted coldly. ” so what if they’re not happy? in this family, my words still carry weight!”
luo chenxi quickly flattered the old man.
then, she hid in a corner and gave mu yichen a call.
“stupid woman? why aren’t we home yet? where were they now? how long more?”
as soon as the phone was connected, young master mu’s impatient voice came out.
“uh … this, this …”
luo chenxi choked.
she was too embarrassed to admit that not only had she not left B city, but she also had no plans to go home …
“what’s going on? where is he?”
luo chenxi quickly said,’well … dear, my grandmother asked me to stay for a meal! i haven’t been back for years, and the old man misses me very much. i’m too embarrassed to refuse … but don’t worry, i’ll go home as soon as i’m done eating!”
mu yichen was silent for a moment on the other end of the phone.
luo chenxi felt uneasy in her heart. she called out softly, ” “mu yichen, did you hear what i just said?”
“do you still remember what you promised me this morning? hmm?”
for some unknown reason, luo chenxi suddenly felt a chill on her back.
“mm … that … of course i remember! i said i wanted to go home before dinner to accompany you and tang tang …”
” i stayed up all night last night and had a meeting today. i went home as soon as i got off work. i thought i would be able to eat sweet and sour fish … “
” uh, this … ” luo chenxi lowered her head in guilt.
” tangtang even made a few wontons herself just now. she said that it was taught by her kindergarten teacher and wanted to cook them for you … “
” uh, that … ” luo chenxi lowered her head more and more.
“stupid woman, do you have any concept of family?”
luo chenxi was so embarrassed by his words that she almost ran home.
but at this moment, old mrs. lu pushed the door open and entered.
“chenxi, who are you calling? it’s almost time for dinner, why aren’t you out yet?”
luo chenxi returned to her senses and answered hastily.
he turned to mu yichen and said,”mu yichen, please help me coax tang tang!” anyway, i’ll be back in a few hours. oh right, i forgot to tell you the good news. i’ve got the safe. when i get back, we can continue the investigation. everything is going smoothly!”
“alright, that’s it then. i’m hanging up!”
“wait, stupid woman …”
mu yichen gritted his teeth when he heard the busy tone from the other end of the phone. he almost smashed the phone!
who was talking to his little woman?
why did this little woman abandon him the moment the other party spoke?
he had almost convinced luo chenxi to come home earlier!
“daddi, where’s big sister? is big sister coming home?”
the little dumpling ran out of the kitchen with her short legs. her hands were still covered in flour as she rubbed them against mu yichen’s black suit.
mu yichen shook his head. ” no! “
“daddi is too useless! you don’t even know how to coax big sister to come back!” the little dumpling pouted.
