At the intersection ahead, a traffic accident had occurred, causing severe congestion. Jiang Chengmu had to slow down. The city's development was accelerating, and inevitably, traffic issues were becoming more frequent.
The phone in her bag rang. Gu Lvq Qi took it out to check the caller ID and immediately answered, speaking softly, "Dad!"
The man in the driver's seat glanced at the little woman who was suddenly cheerful because of a phone call. Her animated expression was captivating.
Her gentle voice echoed in the cramped space. After a while, unsure of what was said on the other end, Gu Lvq Qi turned to the man driving and said lightly, "Dad wants you to take the call!"
She had initially planned to refuse her father's call by using Jiang Chengmu's driving as an excuse, but she didn't want to worry him.
"I'm not in a good position!" Jiang Chengmu replied coolly without taking the phone.
Realizing that her father might have heard what he just said and worried about the safety risks of answering a call while driving, Green Qi had no choice but to bring the phone closer to Jiang Chengmu's ear, signaling him to say a few words to Old Man Gu.
She thought he wouldn't speak up, but when she heard him call out "Dad," she was slightly taken aback.
The road ahead finally cleared up, and the car sped through the intersection. Taking advantage of a red light, Green Qi turned to him and asked, "What did my dad say?"
He glanced back at her and replied calmly: "Nothing much."
Their marriage was due to Old Man Gu, so they always had to put on an act in front of him.
The phone rang again, but this time it wasn't hers. Jiang Chengmu reached for the phone on the dashboard, and sharp-eyed Green Qi immediately spotted the photo displayed on the screen.
The man's gentle yet piercing voice in the driver's seat was mixed with low laughter, creating a pleasant atmosphere.
Lu Manqing was a special presence among Jiang Chengmu's group of women. Initially, he did not want to get married, claiming he had a woman he liked, and that woman was clearly Lu Manqing.
He would agree to any request from her, even going so far as to invest heavily to help her gain fame.
It was also because of this woman that he repeatedly trampled on her dignity as the legitimate wife in front of outsiders.
From the first day she saw Jiang Chengmu rush to find her after receiving a phone call from Lu Manqing, she knew that this woman was undoubtedly very important to him.
Jiang Chengmu hung up the phone and placed it back on the stand. He turned to glance at the silent woman and teasingly said, "What's wrong? Are you jealous?"
"Heh, being too narcissistic isn't good. By the way, you should still take Miss Lu with you to the club, lest people say you brought an unrefined woman along!"
"If it weren't for Lan Qing feeling unwell, I wouldn't have asked you to go!"
"Then why not find another woman?"
"I just played along with you in front of your dad; now you should reciprocate!" Jiang Chengmu snorted coldly, speaking in annoyance.
Her unwillingness to go was truly infuriating!
"Accompanying you in this act doesn't have to be today; there's no need for you to put yourself in a difficult position!"
It turns out that Lu Demeiren called her because he was uncomfortable, treating her like a backup.
Jiang Chengmu's face darkened as he slammed his fist on the steering wheel, the harsh honking drawing the attention of nearby drivers. He coldly said, "Shut up if you don't want to be thrown out!"
Glancing at the inexplicably angry man, Green Qi thought to herself: I would love for you to kick me out!
