C135 – Just Tell Me Early
This young one is challenging me right now! Tell me! Has he realized that I’m no longer in control?
Ann Yichen remained perplexed, unsure who was ignorant of the situation.New novel chapters are published on
“What’s the matter? Not coming down?” Ann Yichen suggested, “Let’s go see Shang Xiaojie.” He opened the car door as he spoke.
Ann Yichen found it somewhat surprising, as Long Xiaoyi typically maintained a direct and forthright demeanor when looking at him, but now, he appeared unusually composed.
“Are you brave enough to step out?” Ye Zichen threatened Long Xiaoyi.
Long Xiaoyi found it amusing and retorted, “If I do come down, what are you going to do with me? Break up like a woman?”
He remained as composed as ever, leaving Ye Zichen uncertain whether it was an act or genuine calmness.
“I’ll damn well push you down and deal with the consequences,” Ye Zichen angrily kicked at Long Xiaoyi.
Long Xiaoyi didn’t respond and simply opened the car door.
Anxious, Ann Yichen reached out to grab him, then settled into the backseat on Long Xiaoyi’s lap.
However, it wasn’t an admission of embarrassment or helplessness; it was a scolding in Long Xiaoyi’s ear. “You little troublemaker, your wings are getting too strong. You think you can defy me?”
It seemed like Long Xiaoyi had anticipated Ann Yichen’s approach. Perhaps Ann Yichen’s intentions were too evident. Consequently, Long Xiaoyi didn’t seem surprised. He closed the car door with a smile and gazed up at Ann Yichen. “You really want to argue, don’t you?”
“That’s right! So what? You were the one who caught me daydreaming first, and now that I’ve taken the initiative, you dare to reject me.”
“Who are you calling a boy? Address your husband by his name.”
Long Xiaoyi corrected, his tone neither angered nor displeased. He calmly spoke with a warm smile.
“Husband? Whose husband are you!? Definitely not mine. I took the initiative, and you’re still so unromantic? Are you made of wood or something? No, you should have told me earlier; then I wouldn’t have pestered you.”
Although he sounded discontented, he didn’t get angry. His words were more of a playful complaint, and he didn’t even pinch Long Xiaoyi’s ear. It was unclear whether Long Xiaoyi wasn’t upset or simply couldn’t be bothered.
