735 Long Hui’s Reques (1/2)
Jiang Ying Yue told them that Long Hui video-called to talk to his son, Little Jun, because he was going to leave to the north in a few days and would be staying there until the year was over. He would only be returning next year.
”Hui…Long Hui said that he heard that the signal at the place where he'll be staying is terrible so he might not be able to call our son as often as he wants.”
Iris nodded because she already knew about it. Long Jian told her during the Long Industries' party that part of Long Hui's punishment was to send him to a tiny, rural branch up north. What with Jin Liwei's accident and learning about her pregnancy, Long Hui had slipped out of her mind these past few days. But he just had to pop up right now and cause her blood to boil.
”The spineless scoundrel!” Chen Fei mock-punched her other hand's palm while her face contorted in anger. ”How dare he upset our dear Little Jun and cause our baby boy to have a tantrum? I'm gonna kick that man's balls the next time I see that son of a bitch.”
”But Eldest Brother Hui is Little Jun's father,” Long Jinjing whispered in a sad voice. ”He has every right to talk to his own son.”
”I'll never deprive Hui…Long Hui of his rights as my son's father,” Jiang Ying Yue said. ”Even if our relationship didn't work out in the end, I know that he loves our son very much. I'll never stop him from forging a close relationship with our son as long as he doesn't take Little Jun away from me. That's where I draw the line.”
”Tell us exactly what happened,” Jin Liwei said while wrapping an arm around Iris' shoulders to keep her calm because he could already sense her currently oversensitive emotions starting to destabilize again with the mere mention of Long Hui's name.
Jiang Ying Yue nodded and started telling them the details of what happened when Long Hui called. The two of them didn't speak much to each other, except for when talking about their son. They had been cold to one another. Jiang Ying Yue's role was mostly holding the phone for Little Jun so that the father and son could chat with each other.
”Thankfully, Long Hui didn't make any trouble or harassed me. He just focused on talking to our son. It was just that Little Jun is still very young with limited vocabulary so their talk wasn't about anything substantial. The two of them just mostly looked and smiled at each other.”
Everyone relaxed a little after hearing that Long Hui didn't deliberately cause any trouble. Iris and Jin Liwei especially felt relieved because they had personal grudge against him.
”While Little Jun was distracted playing with a toy, Long Hui asked if he could see our son before he leaves for the north,” Jiang Ying Yue said.
Iris narrowed her eyes and Jin Liwei had to tighten his arm around her, silently telling her to calm down. [This novel is a contracted work with W e b n o v e l . c o m (remove spaces).

”How did you respond, Big Sis Yue?” Dom asked.
