Chapter 22 - 22....like any other family.... (2/2)
All's well that ends well.....
They excitedly had the daifukus while Meilin leisurely sipped her tea, they all enjoyed such times.
In contrast to the expectations of many, just because they were filthy rich, never meant they didn't like enjoying common things more so for our Meilin, who was abroad for at least 4 years and got used to being more of an outgoing type rather than being the elegant type though elegance was ingrained in her bones, ironic right?
Enjoying daifukus and the 'not very expensive' tea, they looked like any other family....a sweet and happy family, they too were normal human, after all, right?
.........
By the time they left the mansion, it was already 21:00
Qin ZiXuan, now in the driving seat, was meticulously driving as his left thumb made a certain beat on the steering wheel.
Their dinner was very harmonious and they were asked to stay as tomorrow was also a holiday but the two of them strictly denied, who wants to eat dog food, right?
Their drive back to her apartment was, as usual, silent until her phone buzzed breaking the tranquil air.
She took out her phone from her bag and saw a call notification pop up, seeing the name she glanced back at the road and saw that they will reach her apartment in about 15 minutes and was about to message the other party back when her phone went off, again.
In a panic, she cut off the phone which in turn seemed to have irked the caller and after that the phone repeatedly buzzed.
Now she was the one who became annoyed but before she could switch off her phone and ignore the caller completely, the man beside her spoke,
”Just answer it ba. It must be urgent.”
”No-” she hurriedly said but then stopped herself.
' It's not urgent, he must be sulking. I told him I'd call back when I'm free but he was probably bored and called me out of boredom' and of course, she couldn't speak this out loud, now can she?
She sighed and rubbed her temples but before she could decide on anything the phone again took off.
Meilin: (- -)...'haah', she sighed internally.
”It's okay, just answer it.”
”hmm....excuse me” she replied to him.
She received the call but before she could tell the other party that she will call back later, a deep baritone voice, that could make men and women alike [Of course there are exceptions, like the stupid couple in the car...haha] swoon over it, sounded through the call.
