Gu Zhiqi listened to Tang Yichen’s words, slightly raised her eyebrows, turned on the speakerphone, and then looked at Li Yiming, speaking leisurely, "Director Li, your cousin wants to talk to you."
Upon hearing Gu Zhiqi’s words, Li Yiming first let out a soft scoff, then looked at Gu Zhiqi with a face full of contempt, "My cousin? Don’t tell me you’re claiming that the person on the phone with you is Tang Yichen?"
"Gu Zhiqi, you probably don’t even know who Tang Yichen is, do you? You think anyone can just pretend to be him?" Li Yiming said disdainfully, huffing coldly, before taking a few steps towards Gu Zhiqi, "I would like to see which fool dares to impersonate my cousin."
Listening to Li Yiming’s scornful words, Tang Yichen on the other end didn’t speak immediately. He waited until Li Yiming had finished speaking before he began slowly, "Which fool? It’s me, the fool not afraid of death."
As the voice from Gu Zhiqi’s phone reached him, Li Yiming first froze, then snickered, scorn spreading across his face, "Oh, can even imitate voices? Found a voice actor to... "
The moment he saw the number on the screen, Li Yiming’s voice stopped abruptly, and he froze on the spot.
The number belonging to Tang Yichen was easy to remember, and he had memorized it multiple times. Naturally, he knew that the number displayed was indeed Tang Yichen’s.
"Tang... Fourth, Fourth Master?" Li Yiming no longer dared to call him Yichen, but instead stuttered out "Fourth Master," trembling all over with fear, nearly kneeling in front of the phone in Gu Zhiqi’s hand.
Li Yiming’s cry of "Fourth Master" left everyone present, except for Gu Zhiqi, in shock.
It really was Tang Yichen?!
"Hey, Fourth Master? Who is Fourth Master? I don’t know the guy, I’m just a voice actor," Tang Yichen spoke indifferently on the other end, his tone revealing his unhappiness, though his exact feelings were unclear.
"Fourth, Fourth Master, is it really you? You... how do you know... I, I was wrong!" He changed from questioning to apologizing, looking at Gu Zhiqi then back at the phone in her hand, standing there with his legs trembling.
Listening to Li Yiming’s words, Tang Yichen couldn’t be bothered with more chitchat and instead asked directly, "I heard that you’re my cousin? How come I don’t know that I have a cousin with the surname Li?"
"Fourth, Fourth Master, you’ve forgotten, I’m Tang Shuyi’s son." Li Yiming explained shakily, bringing up his deceased mother.
"Tang Shuyi? Who’s that? Don’t know her," Tang Yichen outright denied any relation with Li Yiming.
He found the name somewhat familiar, but he truly didn’t recognize it. She must be from some collateral branch of the Tang family, probably.
Hearing Tang Yichen’s denial, Li Yiming’s face turned extremely ugly, "How... How can you not recognize her, my mother was your father’s cousin."
"My dad has many cousins, who knows which one you’re talking about," Tang Yichen said with slight impatience, and then continued to Gu Zhiqi, "Gu Xiaoxi, although I don’t know which cousin he is, I really don’t have any close ties with him. If he has caused you trouble, feel free to deal with him. If it’s inconvenient for you to act, I can send someone over to handle it."
Let alone a cousin he didn’t recognize, if it came to his own brother versus Gu Xiaoxi, he wouldn’t dare to mistreat Gu Xiaoxi.
Listening to Tang Yichen’s words, Gu Zhiqi casually responded, "No need to trouble yourself." After saying that, she turned off the speakerphone and brought the phone to her ear, "It’s just some school business, no need to make a big deal out of it."
