Xiyan, already teased by his fingers, felt a little dazed. "W-what?"
At that mont, the phone rang again.
But this ti, when the ringtone echoed through the car, Chen the assistant and the driver could clearly sense that the temperature inside had dropped several degrees.
It was icy.
Chen glanced at the driver with a mournful expression, his gaze seeming to say: Ou Shao’s "mont" has been interrupted again, but this has nothing to do with !
The driver responded with an helpless look, coupled with one that wished him luck and safety.
"Y-young master, this ti it’s Madam calling..."
Xiyan pushed him away, quickly shifting from his lap to the seat beside him, her face flushing red. "Hurry up and answer it."
Ou Jue’s facial features tightened, and he stretched out his hand. "Give it here."
"Yes!" Chen quickly handed the phone over, shooting Xiyan a deeply grateful look.
Thank you, Miss Xia, for saving QAQ.
Ou Jue held the phone but didn’t answer imdiately. He cast a fearso glare at Chen and warned in a dangerous tone, "Want to lose your eyes?"
!!!
Chen imdiately turned his head away, not daring to look at Xiyan anymore.
Xiyan, on seeing this, couldn’t help feeling sympathy.
Working under Ou Jue was truly pitiful.
To serve a master was like serving a tiger...
The young man beside her finally answered the call. "Hello?"
"Where are you? Momo’s been calling you, why aren’t you answering?"
"Busy," Ou Jue replied indifferently.
"It seems like you’re busy chasing after that Xia Xiyan woman again, huh?!" Ou Mama’s voice was indignant. "Let tell you, co ho imdiately, or I’ll jump off the third floor! You won’t have a mother in this lifeti!"
"Mom, is this really necessary? Let make myself clear: whether you agree or not, Xia Xiyan—I’m determined to have her!"
"Well, let make myself clear too! Your wife can only be the daughter of Madam Susan. If you dare to marry anyone else, it’ll be over my dead body!"
On the other end, Qiao Qianmo sat beside Ou Mama, her expression gloating.
Right now, she really wanted to see how Xia Xiyan would react upon hearing this.
She’d surely be furious, right?
Aunt was absolutely against letting her and Ou Jue be together. What could she do now?!
As long as "Madam Susan" remained a factor, this lifeti, she’d never beco the Ou Family’s Young Madam!
Let’s see how smug she’d remain then!
——
The car was enclosed, and Xiyan could clearly hear the phone conversation.
Xiyan, feeling awkward, licked her lips and tugged at Ou Jue’s arm. "You should go ho. Aunt Ou just got discharged from the hospital; you need to take care of her emotions."
Ou Jue said nothing, his thin lips pressed into a hard line.
"Hurry up and go back." Xiyan put on a stern face. "Otherwise, I’ll get mad."
As she spoke, she turned to the driver. "Uncle Driver, please pull over. I want to get off."
The driver didn’t dare act rashly and glanced at Ou Jue.
Ou Jue’s face was icy, but after a long pause, he finally spoke. "Stop the car."
The car slowly pulled over to the roadside, and just as Xiyan was about to step out, Ou Jue pressed his hand onto her shoulder.
He spoke to the driver, "Take her to the film set."
Then, he pushed open the car door.
Chen quickly followed him out of the car, imdiately arranging for the nearest vehicle to pick them up.
The car carrying Xiyan started up again, but now her left-hand side was empty.
Sigh, her heart felt a little downcast.
Xiyan took out her phone.
anwhile, at the Chi family residence...
An Ran was having breakfast with Chi Cheng, his mother, and Uncle Chi.
The phone rang.
