Chi Jiao’s eyes lit up as she looked at Pei Yao and asked in disbelief, “Sister Pei Yao, what did you say? Say it again!”
Pei Yao was shocked by her surprise and said weakly, “Jiaojiao, calm down. I was just joking. What I said might not be true.”
“I know. I won’t try it without serious consideration, but this is indeed a new idea. I need to think about it carefully. Sister Pei Yao, send me home first,” Chi Jiao said.
Pei Yao nodded and sent Chi Jiao home.
20 days passed quickly.
Zhan Tingting, who had been in charge of guarding the barrier, called Chi Jiao early in the morning.
Chi Jiao answered the call and asked indifferently, “It’s me. What’s the matter?”
On the other end of the line, Zhan Tingting smiled. “Hehe, Boss, that old woman couldn’t hold it in anymore. She started begging for mercy three days ago. But as she begged, she would start cursing. Little Xing would go over and teach her a lesson. After a few times, that old woman couldn’t take it anymore. She kept begging for mercy since last night. She was tortured until she cried and howled. She said she will do anything as long as we let her out.”
Chi Jiao wasn’t surprised. She raised her eyebrows and smiled. “Alright, it’s faster than I imagined.”
“Boss, are we letting her out?” Zhan Tingting asked.
Chi Jiao shook her head. “No, keep her there for a few more days and let Little Xing keep an eye on her. Let me know when she runs out of energy.”
“Alright.” Zhan Tingting agreed and hung up.
After Chi Jiao hung up, she thought for a moment and called Yan Zhengchen via video call.
Yan Zhengchen answered the video call. The screen showed him in the kitchen making breakfast in an apron.
Chi Jiao looked at him curiously and smiled. “Brother Yan, are you into being a stay-home husband now? I think my ‘sister-in-law’ will be very lucky.”
“You little imp, how dare you tease me? Do I need to look for a woman? Gong Lu alone is more than enough for me to deal with. Do you know how annoying he is? As long as I don’t make breakfast, he won’t eat it. He said that it’s not healthy to eat outside. Is refusing to eat breakfast healthy?” Yan Zhengchen complained as he flipped the omelet helplessly.
Chi Jiao couldn’t help laughing out loud. “I don’t think Brother Gong needs to find a wife in the future. He’s already been spoiled by you. No one else will catch his eye.”
Yan Zhengchen shook his head disapprovingly with a wronged expression. “He’s my enemy. I’m helpless against him. Don’t learn from him. He gives me so many problems every day…”
“Who is giving you problems?” Gong Lu’s voice suddenly rang out. Immediately after, he appeared on screen and looked at her. “Jiaojiao, did he say something bad about me again?”
“I cook for you every day. What’s wrong with me talking bad about you? Bear with it.” Yan Zhengchen rolled his eyes as he brushed jam onto the toast.
Gong Lu held his phone and requested, “I want a cup of coffee. No sugar, no milk.”
“Why are you drinking coffee on an empty stomach so early in the morning? I’ve prepared warm water for you. After you’re done, go and change your clothes. Have some bread and milk for breakfast later. It’s more nutritious than coffee and won’t irritate your stomach,” Yan Zhengchen said.
