Chapter 396: Are You Really Admitting That It’s Your Fault?
After Lin Yiqian was forced to sit down by Gu Nianshen, she reached out to grab him by the wrist. “Are you really admitting that it’s your fault?”
Gu Nianshen seemed confused.
Why did it feel like there was something abnormal about this idiot today?
Right then, Xi Xia suddenly stood up by pressing onto the back of her chair.
Gu Nianshen and Lin Yiqian subconsciously turned to look at her.
“Nianshen, Xiaoyi, I’m not feeling too well. I’ll be making my way home first.” She smiled at them.
With her lips pursed, it seemed obvious that she was feeling a little better.
Lin Yiqian was well aware that Xi Xia was feeling jealous. Seeing how weak Xi Xia appeared, Lin Yiqian felt a brief moment of guilt.
However, she had no intention of being a saint.
After all, she had done much worse things in the past. What difference would this single incident make?
Without saying a word, Lin Yiqian turned to look at Gu Nianshen to see his reaction.
She guessed he was probably feeling sad about Xi Xia leaving.
As Gu Nianshen lifted his hands away from Lin Yiqian’s shoulders, he stood up straight and looked at Xi Xia. “Who did you come with?”
“Uncle Gu sent me here. He’s gone to pick my aunt up. He should be here soon,” Xi Xia said softly.
She had a serene smile on her face.
“In that case, wait for them. I’ll make a call and check if they are on the way,” Gu Nianshen said calmly.
“Lin Yiqian, where’s my phone?” He then turned to look at Lin Yiqian.
“I’ve lost it.” Lin Yiqian shrugged.
“How did you lose it?” Gu Nianshen raised his brows.
“Daddy, your phone was about to explode. Mommy and I have called the cops.” Xiaoyu finally found the opportunity to remind them of his existence.
As he spoke, he walked up to Gu Nianshen and looked up at him with a frightful expression.
Lin Yiqian was lost for words.
She should not have committed the crime in front of Xiaoyu.
“What?” Gu Nianshen seemed confused. He then looked suspiciously at Lin Yiqian.
“I accidentally dropped it into the basin when we went to the restroom. Water got in and it could no longer be switched on. That’s why I threw it into the dustbin,” Lin Yiqian said nonchalantly.
“Yeah, it really was going to explode. Mommy didn’t do it on purpose.” Xiaoyu nodded furiously as he was worried Gu Nianshen might not believe what Lin Yiqian said.
At first, Lin Yiqian was feeling rather confident. However, now that the little fellow tried so hard to explain what happened, she felt that Gu Nianshen would definitely suspect something fishy was going on.
She was beginning to feel guilty.
Lin Yiqian stole glances at Gu Nianshen and noticed that, despite the frown on his face out of annoyance, he did not seem to be suspecting anything.
Indeed, Gu Nianshen was not thinking too much into it because he recalled that Lin Yiqian had destroyed his previous phone not too long ago. “Should I order a bunch of phones?”
Gu Nianshen was suggesting that Lin Yiqian might destroy his phone on a frequent basis.
However, there was nothing he could do about it as she was his wife.
Meanwhile, Lin Yiqian kept her mouth shut.
As it seemed as if the two were getting into a heated argument, Xi Xia tried to calm things down. “Nianshen, Little Yi didn’t do it on purpose. You’ll just have to buy a new one.”
Her voice sounded meek and raspy from dehydration, so much so that anyone who heard her would feel the urge to give her some water.
Lin Yiqian nodded along with an innocent look on her face. “Yeah, Husband, I didn’t do it on purpose,” she said as she tugged lightly at Gu Nianshen’s jersey.
Gu Nianshen’s eyes lit up. What did the idiot just call him?
Husband?
Lin Yiqian had actually addressed Gu Nianshen as her husband in public.
The feeling of happiness overtook Gu Nianshen so suddenly that it felt like a dream.
As Lin Yiqian was still wearing a face mask, only her eyes were visible to Gu Nianshen. At that moment, her eyes seemed to be unusually bright.
