Chu Yi’s phone suddenly rang at this moment.
But since she was in class, she did not answer.
It seemed the caller was urgent—they quickly rang a second and third time.
Zhang Jingdong then said, "You should pick it up, just in case it’s an emergency!"
Chu Yi thought about it and then nodded apologetically, "Alright."
She then took out her phone from her bag.
But after one glance, she immediately hung up.
Zhang Jingdong immediately thought of something and asked, "Who is it? Him?"
Although Chu Yi didn’t want to admit it, she couldn’t lie to Zhang Jingdong and guiltily nodded, "...yes, don’t be mad, I’ll turn off my phone right now!"
Zhang Jingdong quickly reached out his hand, "No need, what’s the big deal? If he calls again, just answer and have a good chat with him, it won’t delay the class."
When Chu Yi heard this and saw Zhang Jingdong’s expression at the moment, she instantly understood his meaning.
She unconsciously showed a troubled face, "That’s not so good, I’m afraid he might..."
Zhang Jingdong smiled and shook his head, "Don’t worry, it’s alright..."
At that moment, Chu Yi’s phone rang again.
Chu Yi looked at Zhang Jingdong somewhat bewilderedly.
Zhang Jingdong then gestured with his hand, "Answer it."
Seeing his insistence, Chu Yi reluctantly answered the call and then returned to the bed.
"Honey, it’s raining so hard, why aren’t you at home, where did you go?"
"Who allowed you to come back? Where did you get the key?"
"You’re lying, you clearly gave me your key last time!"
"I... okay, actually I made a spare before I gave you the keys last time... Honey, it’s because I care about you, what if there’s an emergency on your end, I should be able to come over right?"
"No need, leave the key at home now, and then leave immediately, hiss..."
Zhang Jingdong, hearing Old Jiang’s meek demeanor in front of Chu Yi, couldn’t help but recall how pompous this guy was during meetings in their past life, so he began the lecture.
"Wife, what are you doing?"
"I’m eating, what’s up?"
"But you, where have you gone?"
Chu Yi knew Zhang Jingdong was doing it on purpose, she glared at him coyly, then spoke sweetly into the phone, "It’s none of your business where I go!"
"But I need to make sure you are safe, it’s raining so much today, you didn’t go climbing mountains again, did you? That’s so dangerous! Did you go to the mountains alone again?"
"Jiang Feng, let me tell you again, whatever I do now has nothing to do with you, you have no right to control me anymore..."
Zhang Jingdong didn’t expect Chu Yi to have such a commanding side, so he began explaining Newton’s third law.
"Honey, don’t say that, I was wrong, I truly was! I know I’ve hurt you, but you’ve seen my behavior these past few years, I haven’t messed around, please forgive me!"
Chu Yi struggled to control her breathing before finally managing to say, "It’s too late to say this now, some things once done can’t be undone!"
"Besides, don’t your parents want grandchildren? You always listen to them on this matter, so there’s no way for us to go back to how we were before!"
Jiang Feng hesitated for a while before continuing, "Don’t worry, I’ll definitely persuade them!"
"And with medical technology so advanced nowadays, any illness has a cure, if it really comes down to it, let’s just visit the hospital, as long as you cooperate with the treatment, I think it will definitely be fine!"
Chu Yi suddenly got angry, "So you think I was lying to you last time? I’ve already been checked at the hospital, I’m perfectly fine, have you ever thought that maybe the problem has always been yours?"
"I... how could I possibly have a problem!"
"I’m just asking did you get checked at the hospital? You didn’t even properly check during our pre-marital physical, now you’re saying this... forget it, Jiang Feng, I don’t want to talk about this anymore..."
"Wife, are you okay, are you alright?"
"It’s... the eggplant is too hot!"
"Quick, drink some cold water... but honey, didn’t you used to dislike eggplant?"
Chu Yi then noticed the fiery look in Zhang Jingdong’s eyes and said, "I used to not eat eggplants because yours weren’t tasty, I love them now because someone else makes them delicious."
Zhang Jingdong did not expect Chu Yi to come up with such a sharp retort, suddenly realizing she was quite a talented debater, so he skipped some parts of the prepared lesson and directly addressed the key points of the class.
"Wife, I’ve improved my cooking a lot in recent years, especially your favorite dishes, twice-cooked pork and spicy stir-fried beef, I’ll make them for you some day?"
"Don’t start with that, no need! And from now on, without my permission, don’t come back home, otherwise, I’ll move and make sure you can never find me!"
"Honey, don’t be , I was wrong, I won’t dare to secretly come back again!"
"I... I just saw that today’s weather was stormy with thunder and lightning, I worried about you being scared on your own, so I thought to come back and accompany you... don’t worry, I will never do this again, please don’t move out!"
"We are still legally husband and wife after all, I have the legal obligation to take care of you..."
"Jiang Feng stop talking, I feel disgusted, do you still think I am that housewife who knew nothing and just returned home after work, do you really want me to expose your true nature?"
