Whenever Yaojie thought about speaking in front of Xiao Jianming, her body couldn’t stop trembling. Moreover, everyone had heard that Xiao Jianming was just so-so towards Gu Nuan, and it seemed he was quite against her.
Zhong Qiaohui hesitated in her mind and finally walked up to Zhang Sanfeng and Zhan Dapeng with an accusatory tone, "Did you all know about this?"
"No!" Zhan Dapeng denied vehemently while simultaneously clarifying for Xiao Yebai, "My second brother definitely didn’t know either."
If the kid Yebai knew that his wife was about to be bitten by an old crocodile, would he agree?
At first, Zhang Sanfeng might have been just as surprised and taken aback as everyone else here when he heard the news, but understanding Xiao Yebai well, he quickly calmed down and said, "There won’t be any trouble."
"What do you mean there won’t be any trouble?" Zhong Qiaohui immediately seized on his slip-up and bombarded him, "Of course, you won’t have any trouble, you’re not her!"
Seeing how forceful Zhong Qiaohui was, it didn’t seem like she was simply venting for Gu Nuan.
Zhan Dapeng lowered his head and glanced at Zhang Sanfeng’s face.
Zhang Sanfeng’s expression was calm, perhaps slightly changed, but it was quickly covered up and glossed over.
He then said to Zhan Dapeng, "My second brother might not know yet, give him a call."
After all, it was a matter internal to the Xiao family, and apart from informing Xiao Yebai, for the moment, they couldn’t just run off to Xiao Jianming.
Seeing Zhang Sanfeng so composed, Zhong Qiaohui huffed and turned back to leave; she thought this could provoke him to speak more with her. Little did she know, since they had met again up until now, they hadn’t genuinely exchanged a single word, let alone discussed past matters.
Zhan Dapeng hurriedly called Xiao Yebai.
Lunchtime was fast approaching.
Xiao Yebai and Zhao Zirong, having gone out, found a restaurant along the way and casually ordered a couple of local dishes.
When Zhan Dapeng called, he anxiously relayed, "Second brother, your wife, she seems to have gone to see the chairman──"
Xiao Yebai’s steak was half-eaten; hearing this, he stopped his knife and fork, then picked up a glass of water to take a sip before saying, "So? Why are you so nervous?"
Zhan Dapeng was startled by his response and quickly lowered his voice to ask, "Second brother, you didn’t already know about this, did you?"
"No, I didn’t know." Little Yebai definitely didn’t know, just as they thought; if he had known, how could he let his wife go?
However, what Little Yebai thought upon hearing the news was different from what they thought.
Zhan Dapeng was puzzled, not understanding Xiao Yebai’s thoughts; could it be he wasn’t worried about Gu Nuan going there and getting bitten by the old crocodile?
Regarding this, Yebai really wasn’t afraid. With a smirk, he said, "I’ve told you guys long ago how fierce and awesome your sister-in-law is. When we first met, she bit me back, and that got me falling head over heels for her."
Frankly, Yebai was already bursting with laughter inside at the thought of his father getting bitten back by White Flower Snake.
The old crocodile was too naive, thinking his son was foolish, really a fool easily ensnared by any vixen? This update ıs available on 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝓷𝓮𝓽
Zhao Zirong, listening to his phone conversation across, was completely dumbfounded.
Once Xiao Yebai finished the call and looked over, Zhao Zirong shuddered intensely.
Xiao Yebai lazily hung up the phone and said to him, "It seems your elder brother-in-law was already well aware of this."
Zhao Zirong, quite embarrassed, hung his head.
