Chapter 294: Don’t talk nonsense

The next day, Chi Yue woke up late and hurriedly washed up. Just as she was about to head out, her phone rang.

Who was looking for him so early in the morning?

Chi Luoxi put on her shoes and looked at her phone. Her expression darkened immediately.

It was his father, Chi Jianming. What trouble was there this early in the morning?

Chi leixi was really a little afraid of this family. She couldn’t hide from them and problems could come knocking on their door at any time.

“Hello, dad, what’s the matter? I’m in a hurry to go to work. ”

On the other end of the phone, Chi Jianming was in a good mood, which could be heard from his tone.

“Luo Xi, it’s nothing. I won’t hold you up from work. Come home for dinner tonight. The family hasn’t been together for a long time. Let’s have a good meal together.”

Go home for dinner? Chi leixi didn’t have such a plan. She had even asked sister Ming to go to the yoga studio that night.

“I still have something to do tonight, I might not be able to make it.”

Chi luexi had an instinctive resistance to going home for dinner. She was not even willing to go home, let alone eat.

“Put everything else aside for now. It’s your dad’s birthday today, so come early for dinner.”

“Oh, I forgot. I’ll be there later.”

......

Chi luexi had no choice but to agree.

“Yue Xi, you can bring President li over to our house for a visit and ask him if he’s free.”

Although Chi Jianming was a little afraid of Li Jingjing, he thought that if President li were to be present at such an occasion, he would have given her a red packet.

Chi leixi directly rejected him without much thought.

“Li Jingjing isn’t free. She’s busy.”

Then, he hung up the phone.

Chi Jianming was still a little disappointed. He was already so old, but his child didn’t even remember his birthday, so he could only tell him directly.

This was also a trap set by the old woman li Lijuan.

He had no choice. Money was tight. Other than paying off the debt in installments, he had to save on food and vegetables at home.

The two children had gone out to live, so there was no smoke or fire at home.

So, taking advantage of Chi Jianming’s birthday, the old woman came up with this idea.

If they didn’t take the initiative to go home, he would take this opportunity to call them back for a gathering. He couldn’t just give them a cake for their birthday, right? there would always be a lot of gifts and red packets.

There was another very important thing, which was that li Lijuan wanted Chi Jianming to bring it up after dinner. Raising a child to prevent old age was the same as raising a daughter.

Although they didn’t live at home anymore, they still had to pay for the expenses at home, whether it was food or filial piety.

Of course, li Lijuan had her own selfish motives. Her words were mainly directed at Chi luexi, who was a big star. She earned a lot from acting and endorsements. Her family was so poor that she couldn’t just watch and do nothing.

He had to give his family at least five thousand Yuan a month, let alone tens of thousands. Wasn’t this human nature?

As for Chi Jiaojiao, who she had doted on since she was young, li Lijuan was always considerate of her. She had just lived with the man’s house and it was said that the Lin family’s business was not easy to do. It depended on her ability. If she could give it to him, then it was fine. If she couldn ‘t, then forget it. There was no need to be so stressed.

On her way to work, Chi leixi called the bakery and ordered a three-pound, two-layer, fruit cream cake.

After work in the afternoon, Chi Kexi went to get the cake and went to the fruit store to buy a large fruit basket made of several high-end fruits. She then took a taxi back to her father’s place.

Before Chi luexi entered, she could already hear exaggerated loud voices and laughter coming from inside. It seemed like Chi chijiao had arrived long ago.
