Ou Mucen was sitting there reading the newspaper. Hearing this, he finally looked up: "Why are you in a hurry? What’s the harm in waiting a little longer?"
Ye Ning was full of displeasure: "It’ll be a big deal! Ou Mucen, I have a job too. Today, it was supposed to be your turn, but you hurriedly called me over. I picked up the child, brought him back for dinner, and you just got back now. I’ve already been delayed for a long time."
After giving her a bit of face, she started making a big fuss.
The man who heard all this finally showed a gloomy face: "So, in your heart, the child isn’t as important as your work?"
"If you think picking up the child delays you, then you can leave now, and you don’t need to come anymore. I, Ou Mucen, can still teach and take care of my son."
After saying that, he went back to reading his newspaper, without even looking at her.
Ye Ning saw this and finally got so angry. She wanted to argue with him but, seeing their son playing over in the living room, she worried her loud voice might scare him and hurt his young heart.
So she stood there, clenching her teeth for a while, and finally sat down in front of him, holding back her anger.
Earlier, when he came back, she was worried about being scolded by him for not keeping promises. But now, after hearing this, she didn’t feel the slightest bit afraid.
She now just wanted to argue with him, to tear into him!
What did he mean, slowly taking up her time and then having the audacity to accuse her of being irresponsible, only caring about her work?
Ye Ning was furious...
But fortunately, after the two had a few words, this man finally started eating slowly again, finishing that bowl of wontons like he was taking medicine.
After eating, Ye Ning couldn’t hold back any longer. She got up, picked up the bowl in front of him, then went to the kitchen to wash it quickly.
Honestly, if eating is so difficult and painful, then don’t eat! Who are you trying to show with that behavior?
Ye Ning washed dishes quickly in the kitchen and cleaned up. By the time she finished, it was already past eight.
At that moment, her phone in the bag rang. Seeing it, she went to answer the call: "Hello?"
"Aning, where are you? Are you busy?"
Ye Ning’s voice turned cold when she heard it on the other end: "Yeah, I’m dealing with something. What’s up? Do you need me for something?"
Lin Yebai listened carefully to the sounds on the other end. But to his disappointment, he didn’t hear anything, so he casually replied: "No, just that Uncle Li came to find me, asking if you were with me."
So Uncle Li had looked for him!
Ye Ning’s expression softened a bit: "It’s nothing, just dealing with something. I’ll be back soon. Let him know there’s no need to worry."
Lin Yebai hung up the phone...
Ye Ning saw the phone on the table, and went to the kitchen to tidy up again before getting ready to leave.
"Xiaobao, where’s your dad?"
Still playing with his model in the living room, Xiaobao heard this and looked around confusedly.
