67: Chapter 67: Why Does My Wife Ignore Me?
Just as she was about to answer the call, she suddenly remembered how Mu Yunlie had haughtily refused to pick up her voice calls a few days ago.
Facing her concern, he had rudely hung up first.
Suddenly, she also wanted to act haughtily, to give him a taste of his own medicine.
Yan Qianyi casually sat up and leaned against the headboard.
Crossing her legs, she rested her arms behind her head and simply refused to answer the call.
After the ringing stopped, Mu Yunlie sent her a text message.
“Wife, where are you?
Why aren’t you paying attention to me…”
Seeing the popping-up messages, she leapt from the bed.
It was her Xiao Ah Lie!
She hurriedly called back.
Mu Yunlie’s voice came through, heavy with nasal congestion, as if he was about to cry.
“Wife, it’s so dark here…”
The sound of his voice was almost enough to shatter Yan Qianyi’s heart.
She promptly asked, “Where are you?”
“I don’t know, it’s just dark…”
“Send me your location, I’ll come get you right away!”
Yan Qianyi jumped out of bed, grabbed a coat to throw on, and rushed downstairs.
When Ah Lie was affected by the neurotoxin, he was at his most vulnerable.
She had to get to his side as quickly as possible!
Downstairs, Yan Hong, Han Yarong, and Yan Ruyi were sitting on the living room sofa watching dramas.
They seemed more like a family, and now Yan Qianyi felt like an outsider in this very house.
Aunt Xue brought over a plate of fruit.
Yan Hong asked Aunt Xue, “What has Qianyi been up to lately?
She locks herself in her room day after day.”
Aunt Xue replied, “Miss has been studying hard these past few days, she has an exam at the Federation Military Academy tomorrow.”
“Am I hearing this right?” Han Yarong scoffed a few times, “Her?
Thinking of testing into the Federation Military Academy?”
Aunt Xue rolled her eyes, too lazy to respond to Han Yarong’s comment.
Yan Hong took a bite of fruit and said, “Qianyi’s grades have always been excellent, maybe she really will get in.”
“Are you kidding me, husband?” Han Yarong laughed as if she heard a joke, “No matter how good her past grades were, she has been unconscious for two years.
Ruyi also had good grades from a young age, and even she took two years to get in.
The Federation Military Academy is not somewhere anyone can just decide to go.”
Yan Hong nodded, then felt that his wife made sense.
Yan Qianyi, coming downstairs, overheard Han Yarong’s mocking words.
She ignored the people in the living room and hurried out.
Yan Hong was about to call out to her when suddenly a strange ID called him with a voice message.
“It’s me, Mu Zicheng.”
Yan Hong’s expression tightened.
It had been a week since the last incident.
The Mu Family hadn’t caused any troubles since then, and he had been dragging his feet.
After all, he couldn’t currently return the betrothal gift, so he thought to procrastinate each day as it came.
Then slowly work on changing Qianyi’s mindset over time.
However, he didn’t expect Mu Zicheng would come back so soon.
Yan Hong hastily covered his earphone and went upstairs.
In the living room, only Han Yarong and her daughter were left.
Yan Ruyi moved closer to Han Yarong and whispered, “Mom, we need to think of something.”
Han Yarong, popping a sunflower seed and not paying full attention, asked absentmindedly, “Think of what?”
“We can’t let Yan Qianyi take the exam tomorrow.”
Han Yarong tossed away the shell of the seed in her hand, looking at Yan Ruyi with confusion.
“She could actually pass!”
“What kind of interstellar joke is that?
Baby, you don’t have to be too scared of her, she’s nothing but a useless person now, she won’t cause any turmoil.
The matter with the Mu Family is far from over, she’ll soon be kicked out of this house.”
“Mom, I know her, trust me, we must do something!”
Seeing her daughter’s serious expression, Han Yarong gradually lost the smile on her face.
