The latest text was from when they last talked about the staff training.

Lu Qingye opened the keyboard and pondered for a long time. After deleting and changing his text countless times, he could not come up with a complete sentence.

There was no noise in the huge living room.

Meng Chuyuan and Lin Youjuan looked at each other for a long time. They seemed to be waiting for each other to speak.

After a while, Lin Youjuan finally couldn’t help but say, “Fortunately, 1 called in time. If I had been any later, the little bastard might have fallen asleep.”

“…” She was really his biological mother. How could she bear to disturb her son’s rest so late at night?

Faced with Lin Youjuan’s angry countenance, the corners of Meng Chuyuan’s mouth twitched slightly, revealing an awkward smile.

At this moment, Meng Chuyuan’s phone suddenly vibrated in her pocket.

“Let’s see who’s looking for you.” Lin Youjuan sat closer towards her. She had heard the vibration just now and was curious if her phone call had worked.

Seeing Lin Youjuan’s expectant face, Meng Chuyuan reached down and took out her phone from her pocket.

“Let me see.” Meng Chuyuan unlocked her phone and saw Lu Qingye’s WeChat message.

Lin Youjuan was a little anxious. She craned her neck and her gaze landed on Meng Chuyuan’s phone screen. She happened to see Lu Qingye’s WeChat profile picture, but the messages next to the red notification dot were blocked by Meng Chuyuan’s hand.

“What did he say?”

Meng Chuyuan opened the chatroom and looked down at the message in the chat box. She read it out calmly. “l used the scarf. It’s not bad. It’s quite warm.

Thank you.”

It was unknown if it was because Meng Chuyuan read the message emotionlessly or because his words were not expressive enough, but after Lin Youiuan heard this. a trace of shock flashed across her eves. She asked in surprise, “That’s it?”

“That’s it.’

Lin Youjuan suddenly came up and snatched Meng Chuyuan’s phone away. “Let me handle it.”

Meng Chuyuan:

Thinking that Lin Youjuan wouldn’t say anything overboard, she let her be. After a while, Lin Youjuan finished typing a message and sent it out before returning the phone to her.

Meng Chuyuan took back her phone and subconsciously looked down at the chat history. In the end, she realized that the message Lin Youjuan had just sent was: “That’s it? I knitted the scarf one thread at a time and all I get is some comments appraising the scarf and a thanks from you?”

Seeing that the other party was typing, Meng Chuyuan raised her eyes slightly and turned her gaze towards the instigator of the matter.

“Yes, it’s tens of millions.” Every time Lu Qingye gave her money, it would start at tens of millions.

Lin Youjuan hummed softly. “That’s more like it.”

Meng Chuyuan did not expect Lin Youjuan to be so gossipy and good at extorting people.

By the time Meng Chuyuan remembered to reply, it was already half an hour later.

After reading Lu Qingye’s message, she felt that half an hour was enough for him to fall asleep, so she did not reply.

Little did she know that Lu Qingye was still waiting for her text and had yet to lie down on the bed.

Another ten minutes had passed. The phone screen had dimmed countless of times- with Lu Jinsen tapping on the phone screen each time to light it up again. In the end, his patience was worn out.

Lu Qingye immediately made a call.

Meng Chuyuan had just returned to the bedroom to pack her luggage. She was going to film a variety show tomorrow. She had just unzipped his luggage when her phone rang.

She was forced to stop packing. She picked up the phone on the table and glanced at it.

Seeing the caller ID, Meng Chuyuan was a little surprised. She raised her hand and swiped across the screen to answer the call.

Meng Chuyuan held the phone between his cheek and shoulder. He pushed open the closet and asked, “Why aren’t you asleep yet?”

“Why didn’t you reply to my message?” Lu Qingye asked the question almost at the same time as her.

“What message?” She was busy packing her things and had long forgotten the contents of his last message. “I thought you were asleep, so I didn’t reply.” Then, a cold voice sounded from the other end. “I’m not asleep.”

“If I remember correctly, it’s almost one in the morning, right? Aren’t you sleepy?”

She remembered that Lu Qingye was supposed to sleep, but he was delayed by his mother’s call.

Lu Qingye: “I’m not sleepy.”

He had always been the one to take a while to reply. He had never waited for anyone else’s reply before. He did not expect the wait to be so torturous.

He couldn’t help but make a call.

Meng Chuyuan hummed softly and said calmly, “Because I didn’t reply to your message?”

This was the only thing she could think of at the moment. She blurted it out subconsciously.

“…” Lu Qingye’s heart skipped a beat.

Was it that obvious?

Before Lu Qingye could speak, Meng Chuyuan picked up her phone and scrolled through the chat history..
