Chapter 664 - Public Display of Love: Forget Chuan is Mrs. Shen (9) (2/2)

–

Xia Nuannuan stood outside the doorway for a long time, until his car disappeared from sight. Then she turned and walked into the house.

As she entered the living room, she heard Xia Yehua still pursuing the matter, “What were you guys doing? The car was parked outside for more than an hour. Why were you out there for so long?”

Qiao Lian: …

She grimaced. Actually, what was an hour?

If it hadn’t been for the security officer provoking Shen Liangchuan… even two hours wouldn’t have been enough.

But how could she say that to her mother-in-law?!

This was the ultimate embarrassment.

Hence, she threw Shen Liangchuan a look and protested, “Mom, it’s all because of Shen Liangchuan.”

She raised an eyebrow at him with the intention for him to continue with an explanation, since it was he who had gotten them into this.

Xia Yehua’s gaze shifted to Shen Liangchuan. “What was going on?”

Without batting an eye, he said, “Oh, an important call came in.”

Qiao Lian was made speechless by the man.

Xia Yehua shook her head and chided him, “You were already almost home. The next time you want to take a call, let Xiao Qiao come home first. She will get bored to tears if she has to wait for you for over an hour to take a business call.”

Shen Liangchuan: …

Qiao Lian: …

Then, clearing her throat, Qiao Lian quickly chimed in, “That’s right, you’re a grown adult. I can’t believe you need to be accompanied to make a phone call!”

Shen Liangchuan replied half-jokingly, “I need you to be around to take this call. How would it work otherwise?”

Qiao Lian bit her lip and immediately played along. “You have a pair of hands. You can pick up your own call, what do I have to do with it?”

He raised an eyebrow and questioned, “Then why did I get myself a wife?”

Listening to this, Xia Yehua was flabbergasted. What had a wife got to do with taking a call?

She felt that she simply did not understand young people nowadays anymore.
