Chapter 352 - Hacking? (1/2)

''Mia?” Jun Zixuan said, ''Why are you acting so sneaky?”

''Who is sneaky? You have taken me as your adopted sister. I am three years older than you. And logically, I am a few lifetimes older than you. Where is your respect for me?” Compared to her usual tone, Mia sounded rather messed up as she presented her rant.

Jun Zixuan uninterestedly said, ''I shall hang up then.''

''Hey, you... Sigh... You are such a pain in the ass...''

''I am hanging up.''

''I want to ask something,'' She said in one breath.

Jun Zixuan raised an eyebrow, ''Be quick. I'll give you thirty seconds.''

''Why are you so weird...''

''Twenty-five seconds.''

Mia massaged her forehead before regaining her composure, ''Fine. Tell me, how can I be sure that a person does not like me?”

''Who taught you grammar?” Jun Zixuan asked, ''...And this world's language?''

''It's your wife. Why do you ask?''

''She struggles in those subjects,'' Jun Zixuan said with a straight face before he continued, ''So, do you mean to ask how to know if a person likes you?”

''You...'' Mia had the urge to slap her forehead, ''No, I meant how can I be sure that a person does not like me?”

Jun Zixuan's lips twitched, ''That depends.''

''Depends on what?” Mia asked, barely controlling her curiosity to know more about it.

''There are many factors which need to be taken into consideration,'' Jun Zixuan said after some thought.

''Give me a rough explanation. It doesn't need to be perfect.''

''Apologies, I prefer perfection in things I do rather than leaving errors in them,'' He replied with a straight face.

She heaved a sigh before speaking, ''Tell me when you are free. I will visit you,'' When there was no reply from him, she took it as an affirmation as she added, ''And don't tell Mei anything about this.''

Jun Zixuan frowned, ''Secrets are just the start of unhealthy relationships. I don't want my wife to demand a divorce,'' He said before taking a brief pause as he added, ''Moreover, what do I get in return?”

Mia could swear that she was remembering her ancestors from her mother's side. Even they, the creatures are known for their craftiness, aren't as crafty as this man, ''First of all, this matter concerns my private life so how is this keeping a secret from Mei? You are just helping your 'elder sister on papers' with some matters. It is not like I shoved a woman into your arms and asked you to keep her as your mistress.''

His eyelids twitched.
