Chapter 1195: Chapter 1195: Family Scandals Should Not Be Made Public

Li Xiaoyun had no idea what kind of struggle Wei Zhiqian had gone through, or perhaps Wei Zhiqian’s friendship with Zhao Dingli prevailed over his internal battle.

Zhao Dingli was using the speakerphone mode.

"What do you want?" Wei Zhiqian’s impatient voice came through.

"I’m here to share some tips for meeting your future in-laws for the first time," Zhao Dingli said.

Although Zhao Dingli was drunk, his speech was very clear now, so Wei Zhiqian didn’t realize he was actually drunk over the phone.

Hearing that it was about this topic, Wei Zhiqian felt exhausted.

While he understands Zhao Dingli’s excitement at finding a girlfriend at the age of 37, he can’t be the only one feeling under pressure!

His patience has its limits too!

"I don’t want to hear it," Wei Zhiqian snapped, "I haven’t had the chance to visit my future in-laws yet. Let’s talk about it when I do in the future."

Unexpectedly, as soon as Wei Zhiqian finished speaking, Li Xiaoyun heard a loud "slap" from the phone.

It was the sound of a hand hitting flesh, crisp and clear.

To be audible over the phone, one can’t help but wonder how much force was used.

Just as Li Xiaoyun was curious about the sound, wondering who hit whom, thinking it sounded like someone being hit.

Suddenly another voice came through the phone.

It sounded like an elderly lady: "Even if there’s no one now, there will be someday. Listen carefully now, take good notes, so you can use them in the future!"

Immediately after, Li Xiaoyun heard another "slap," followed by the old lady saying, "Go write it down in your notebook!"

Li Xiaoyun: "..."

Zhao Dingli: "..."

Who could have imagined that Wei Zhiqian would be so unlucky to be at the Wei Family’s old residence at this time?

Zhao Dingli turned to Li Xiaoyun and explained, "You can tell it’s definitely the Wei Family’s old lady."

Li Xiaoyun asked curiously, "Are you sober now?"

He could even explain things to her?

Unexpectedly, Zhao Dingli said confidently, "I wasn’t drunk."

Li Xiaoyun: "..."

Fine, he’s still not sober.

Then, they heard the sound of rummaging, as if someone was searching through drawers.

"Got it, got it," Wei Zhiqian said to the old lady on the phone, "Grandma, stop hitting, I’m writing it down."

As for being overheard by Zhao Dingli and feeling embarrassed.

Wei Zhiqian didn’t care anymore.

Zhao Dingli already knows he gets hit frequently.

"Really writing it down in a notebook?" Li Xiaoyun asked in surprise.

When Li Xiaoyun spoke earlier, Wei Zhiqian didn’t hear it as he was busy finding a notebook.

This time, Wei Zhiqian heard it.

"Zhao Dingli!" Wei Zhiqian ignored the rules of seniority, "Is Li Xiaoyun also next to you?"

If he got hit, Li Xiaoyun would hear everything?

Being overheard by Zhao Dingli doesn’t matter, they already know.

But Li Xiaoyun didn’t know!

Wei Zhiqian finally felt extremely embarrassed.

For a moment, he wanted to strive to find a partner quickly.

"Uh, I’ve always been here, I spoke just now, did you not hear?" Li Xiaoyun didn’t mean to keep it from Wei Zhiqian.

Wei Zhiqian: "..."

"Why are you still together so late?" Wei Zhiqian asked jealously.

"That’s quite funny what you said," before Zhao Dingli or Li Xiaoyun could respond, the old lady already spoke, "They’re dating, of course they’re together. You think someone else would be like you, single and lonely, and comes back to chat with your grandparents when they’ve nothing else to do!"

"I tell you! Your grandparents are old, can’t stay up so late with you! You unfilial grandson!" Mr. Wei’s voice came through.

Li Xiaoyun: "..."

What kind of status does Wei Zhiqian have in the family?

A bit too miserable, isn’t it?

Feels like he’s not loved by parents.

Of course, now it’s grandparents not loving.

As for the attitude of Wei Zhiqian’s parents, that’s unknown.

Wei Zhiqian: "..."

"Other grandparents seeing their grandkids, they’re beyond happy, especially loving," Wei Zhiqian said pitifully, "Grandkids come to see them, they’re overjoyed. Why are you two like this?"

"Want to make us happy? Want to show filial piety? You think coming to see us is filial piety?" The old lady shot three rapid questions.

Wei Zhiqian: "..."

Wei Zhiqian raised his hand in a gesture of surrender: "Okay grandma, please don’t go on, I know what you want to say."

"So you’re stopping your grandma from speaking?" Mr. Wei was angry, "Is this how you show filial piety?"

Li Xiaoyun felt sympathy for Wei Zhiqian.

She whispered to Zhao Dingli, "Let’s hang up the phone. Wei Zhiqian’s getting scolded too badly, it’s not good for us to listen."

"I won’t hang up," Zhao Dingli said, "I just like hearing him get scolded."

"Get lost!" Wei Zhiqian shouted angrily at the phone, and furiously hung up the call.

Here, Mr. Wei became enraged: "Who are you telling to get lost?"

"Grandpa, grandpa! I was telling Zhao Dingli to get lost!" Wei Zhiqian quickly explained, "He was eavesdropping on you scolding me. Though I deserve the scolding, and you’re right to scold me, family matters shouldn’t be aired outside, how can he just listen?"

"That’s true," Mr. Wei agreed with Wei Zhiqian for once.

The old lady wasn’t one to be easily distracted, she forcefully steered the conversation back: "Coming alone doesn’t count as filial piety, bringing our future granddaughter-in-law along, that counts as filial piety!"

"..." Wei Zhiqian said awkwardly, "If I bring along the fiancées of the second and third sons, that’s not appropriate, is it?"

The old man took off his slipper and hurled it at Wei Zhiqian: "I’ll beat you, you scoundrel!"

Wei Zhiqian: "..."

Meanwhile, Zhao Dingli got cut off by Wei Zhiqian. Li Xiaoyun sympathized, "I didn’t expect Wei Zhiqian would be so badly treated by the two elders of the Wei Family."

Although pitiful, she really felt like laughing, and wanted to share the incident with Mr. Li and Mrs. Li.

"It’s not just the two elders, he doesn’t have much status with his own parents either," Zhao Dingli said.

"..." Li Xiaoyun uncertainly asked, "Wei Zhiqian wasn’t adopted, was he?"

"Can’t be, this just goes to show that he’s biological," Zhao Dingli said.

Only the biological can be disliked to this extent, right?

Finishing his call with Wei Zhiqian, the screen returned to the Eight-Eight-Sixty-Four Group.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Dingli posted an audio message in the group.

Li Xiaoyun: "..."

"What did you send?" Li Xiaoyun hadn’t heard it yet, but instinctively felt it wasn’t good.

"The recording of Wei Zhiqian being scolded just now," Zhao Dingli said.

Li Xiaoyun asked in shock, "When did you record it?"

"When he started being scolded," Zhao Dingli said lovingly, "I felt such an exciting moment shouldn’t be heard by just us. Not sharing it with everyone isn’t fair at all."
