Chapter 726 - Darling CEO Ji, be obedient and do not think too much.
The mother-daughter pair did not care what the family outside was saying.
After chasing them out, they returned to the dining table to eat.

” Sigh… I really didn’t expect your second uncle’s family to actually…”
Zhang Manhua lightly sighed. Her expression was a little ugly as her eyes carried a tinge of hurt.
She used to be so grateful for their help, yet reality had given her a tight slap.

“Why didn’t you pick up my call earlier?”
The man’s interrogation came through immediately.
She burst out laughing hearing him ask that right away. He sounded like a husband checking up on his wife.

She teased while hugging her phone.
“… I wasn’t.” He paused and then snorted. “Remember to bring your phone everywhere with you next time!”
“Yes, yes, yes. Roger, darling!” She giggled on the phone.

“Son, your book… is upside down.”
