Ji Wen was speechless. Now, he seriously suspected that his uncle had been possessed! He had clearly seen it with his own eyes, but he refused to admit it. Could it be that a man’s IQ would decline after marriage?
At this moment, his cell phone rang. Seeing the caller ID, Ji Wen said, “Uncle, my aunt, who is currently in class, is calling me.”
Ji Lingchen said, “Put her on speaker. Answer it.” CEO Ji’s attention was on the phone.
Ji Wen picked it up and put her on speaker. “Hello, what’s the matter?”
“Xiaowen, don’t go home now. Just find a place to drink milk tea or eat something. Just don’t go home! My husband is working overtime at the office. If he finds out that you went home earlier than me, you’ll expose me!” Fang Xiaonuan said quickly.
Ji Wen turned to look at his uncle. His wife was lying to him. Why was he still smiling? Why did he look like he was in a good mood?
“Hey, Xiaowen. Ji Wen? Are you listening?” Fang Xiaonuan did not hear his reply. She asked anxiously, “Where are you now? Did you go home already?”
Ji Wen said, “No, I haven’t. I haven’t gone home yet.”
Fang Xiaonuan said, “That’s good then. You mustn’t go back!”
Ji Wen did not dare to comply immediately. Instead, he turned to look at Ji Lingchen.
Ji Lingchen nodded at Ji Wen. Only then did Ji Wen say, “Alright, I won’t go home. Then… Good luck!”
Fang Xiaonuan was stunned. “What does that mean?”
But Ji Wen had already hung up. No one answered her question.
After hanging up, Ji Wen looked at his uncle and asked, “Uncle, what exactly are you happy about?”
Ji Lingchen did not answer. Instead, he asked, “Tell me, is she hiding it from me because she’s afraid of me?”
Ji Wen nodded. “Is that why you’re so happy?”
Ji Lingchen turned to look at his wife, who was enjoying her meal. The corners of his lips curled up. “Being afraid of me means that she cares about me.” She cared about him. How could he not be happy?
Ji Wen wondered if all married people experienced such a strange sense of satisfaction. ‘This is really too…’ Ji Wen had goosebumps all over his body.
In the shop, Fang Xiaonuan was thinking about what Ji Wen had said as she ate. “Dad, what do you think Ji Wen meant when he wished me good luck just now? I keep feeling that he’s trying to tell me something. Could it be that my husband has already discovered us?”
Old Master Ji peeled a shrimp and put it into his mouth. “You’re thinking too much. Even if Ji Wen drives home, Ji Lingchen would not be home. He could not have met him.”
Fang Xiaonuan nodded and stuffed a few peeled shrimps into her mouth. She said quietly, “Mm, you’re right, but why is my heart beating so fast?”
“Ugh, my grandson is just jealous of our delicious food. Don’t worry about him!” Old Master Ji’s mouth was full of grease. He thought to himself, ‘This shellfish tastes really good.’ Normally, he would not be able to eat such delicious food. In the future, he would have to follow his daughter-in-law, the real foodie, to find such tasty food!
Fang Xiaonuan nodded her head vigorously. She felt that her father-in-law’s analysis was very reasonable.
“That’s right. Even if Ji Wen drives home, it would take him at least half an hour. Moreover, he didn’t drive to school today. He definitely hasn’t arrived home yet.”
“Moreover, my husband was still at the company just now. It’s impossible for them to meet.”
Old Master Ji said, “Yes, that’s right. Let’s not think about that. Hurry up and eat. After this, another round!”
The two of them continued eating. In the car, the two of them just watched quietly.
Ji Wen suddenly asked, “Uncle, why did you come to school today?”
There were three gates at Jing University. Fang Xiaonuan went to the eastern gate to meet Old Master Ji. Liu Siyu went to the western gate to look for her brother, while Ji Wen wanted to go to the nearest gate, the southern gate. He wanted to hail a taxi and head straight to the arcade. However, just as he reached out to hail a taxi, a familiar car stopped in front of him. The car window rolled down, revealing Ji Lingchen’s face. Then, he ordered, “Get in the car.”
Ji Wen had said, “Uncle? Why are you here?” He obediently got into the passenger seat.
Ji Lingchen knocked on his head and asked with a gloomy face, “Why did you skip class?”
Ji Wen was scolded for no reason and hurriedly defended himself. “Uncle, I didn’t skip class!”
Ji Lingchen was stunned. But his little wife had said that she had a class in a while. Could it be… the man already had a good guess.
Then, Ji Wen took out a strong piece of evidence to prove his innocence. “Uncle, this is our class schedule. Look at it yourself!”
Ji Lingchen looked at the class schedule and frowned. As he had thought, his little wife had lied to him again!
He asked coldly, “Where’s your aunt?”
