"Agreement Article One, available on call." Leaning lazily against the comfortable Seat, Mu Tongzi looked at her with a gloomy expression and opened with a powerful statement.
"You are threatening me!" Clenching the strap of her bag, she glared at him, angrily turning her head away and taking a deep breath. "Fine, I'll go!"
After getting out of the car, she slammed the door shut in frustration and quickly walked into the company.
Inside the car, Mu Tongzi watched her stubborn figure leave briskly. Clearly coerced by him, she still insisted on standing up to him. He had never seen a woman like this before; her stubbornness was surprisingly attractive.
At that moment, he actually looked forward to seeing her submit.
***************************************************************
IKEA came to pick her up after work. Just as she reached the company entrance, she received a call from Jiang Chengmu. It was indeed rare for someone to remember their filial duties amidst the hustle and bustle.
Answering the phone, she opened the car door and got in, speaking in a flat tone: "Jiang Dashao, is there something you need?"
"Nothing much, just wanted to let you know that if you're going back to Jiang Residence to see Mom tomorrow, you should head back first. I'll come pick you up later."
Hearing his tone, it seemed he didn't have time to chat. She didn't ask further, "Since you're not going back, then I won't either. Just give Grandma a call to explain; I don't want to be misunderstood again."
Every time she didn't want to go back, she had to find various excuses; otherwise, Madam Jiang would be even more sarcastic during her next visit. Although being nagged over the phone was better than enduring long tortures face-to-face, she still tried her best to get Jiang Chengmu to speak up.
"Alright then! I heard Yan Zili is back; you two might as well catch up!"
It was rare to hear such considerate words from Jiang Chengmu, and Green Qi was slightly taken aback. She couldn't help but ask, "Are you going to S City to visit a beauty, so you don't have time?"
"What's this? Are you inquiring about my schedule? Wife, I'm surprised that you suddenly care about me like this."
Between them, they weren't even close friends. Even if he occasionally shared some of his plans, it was only to appease their elders during surprise checks. It had never happened before that she took the initiative to ask about his schedule.
"You're my husband; how can I not care? There has been so little news about Jiang Shao and Miss Lu lately that I couldn't help but inquire a bit. Don't worry, I won't leak anything to those gossip magazines. You don't need to rush back; I'll handle things with Mom. That's it, goodbye!"
Before the person on the other end could respond, she had already hung up the phone. Just as she put her phone back in her bag, it rang again. Thinking it was Jiang Chengmu again and wanting to cut him off, she answered when she saw the caller ID.
"Who were you just talking to? Why couldn't I get through?" came Mu Tongzi's sultry and lazy voice from the other end.
"My husband," she replied, emphasizing those three words as if to retaliate against a man's earlier threat.
"..." There was a moment of silence on the other end.
After a while, she narrowed her eyes in satisfaction and broke the silence, "Do you need something from me?"
"I'm about to get off work. You go back to One Pinnacle Mansion and prepare dinner for me," Mu Tongzi instructed lightly before hanging up.
Looking at her phone, Green Qi took a moment to process what he had said and muttered under her breath, "Scoundrel!"
