Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The child Ji Lingchen was talking about was quietly walking to the refrigerator. When no one was looking, she stole an ice-cream and went back to the bedroom. Now that Fang Xiaonuan’s stomach was no longer hurting, she had begun craving things again. After eating the ice-cream, Fang Xiaonuan leaned on the bed and called Old Master Ji, who was far away in the hospital, to ask him how he was feeling today.

“Dad, Lingchen has a social engagement tonight, so we won’t be able to visit you. Moreover, you will be discharged tomorrow,” Fang Xiaonuan said.

Old Master Ji drank the stomach-nourishing vegetable porridge made by his eldest daughter-in-law and said happily, “Yes, yes, you don’t have to come. I’m fine here. With your brother-in-law and sister-in-law here, you don’t have to worry.”

Fang Xiaonuan could hear the hidden meaning in her father-in-law’s words. She deliberately tried to scare him and said, “But if you really miss me, I can also ask the chauffeur to send me to the hospital.”

“No, no, no, there’s really no need. I don’t miss you. Just stay at home and be good!” Old Master Ji quickly refused.

“Hahaha, got it, Dad.” Fang Xiaonuan smiled and hung up the phone.

After hanging up, Old Master Ji said, still in shock, “Fortunately, she didn’t insist on coming. Otherwise, she would make me so angry that I’d get sick again. My blood pressure was so high yesterday.”

…

It was dinnertime, and she was the only one in the Ji family home. The maids were busy fussing over her.

The maid took the basin.

Fang Xiaonuan said, “I just washed my hands. Take it away.”

The maid left with the basin. Another maid came over to help her with her meal.

Fang Xiaonuan said, “I have hands of my own. You all may leave!”

Fang Xiaonuan was left alone in the dining hall, and she finally began to eat heartily.

Meanwhile, Ji Lingchen was watching the young woman on his phone.

Fang Xiaonuan said, “A big table of delicious food that belongs to me alone. How blissful!”

Ji Lingchen smiled and sent a thumbs up emoji. He also commented, “Don’t eat spicy food or cold food. Be good.”

Fang Xiaonuan immediately replied with a funny cat emoji. She even said, “I’m not listening. I’m not listening.”

Ji Lingchen could not help but laugh out loud in front of everyone.

Someone asked curiously, “CEO Ji, what’s making you so happy?”

Ji Lingchen replied, “Nothing much. The child at home is being disobedient.”

Secretary Song obviously knew who CEO Ji was talking about, so she took the initiative to change the topic and speak on behalf of him.

Not long after, Chairman Fang arrived. Seeing that his son-in-law was also present, he said excitedly, “Lingchen?”

Ji Lingchen hurriedly stood up and greeted him. “Dad.” Then, he took the initiative to give up his main seat for his father-in-law. He was still wondering why no one had told him that his father-in-law would be coming.

When the host saw this, his heart tightened. When he had sent out the invitations, he had not invited Chairman Fang. Who had invited Chairman Fang? If he had known that Chairman Fang was coming, he would not have arranged for Ji Lingchen to sit at the main seat. This was really… Thinking of this, the host’s forehead was covered in cold sweat. Fortunately, the two of them did not say anything. They just automatically adjusted their seats. The people at the dining table were all shrewd. The conversation was interesting and it was not awkward. No one felt uncomfortable.

Chairman Fang asked, “How is Old Master Ji’s health?”

Ji Lingchen said, “Thank you for your concern. Father’s illness is no longer serious. He will be discharged tomorrow.”

Chairman Fang said again, “Then tomorrow, ask Xiaonuan to go with you to the hospital to pick up Old Master Ji.”

Ji Lingchen shook his head and said, “Xiaonuan has classes tomorrow, so I won’t bother her. The environment in the hospital is not good, so I don’t want her to be there so frequently. I can go there by myself tomorrow. It won’t take long.”

Hearing this, Chairman Fang grew more and more fond of his son-in-law.

The crowd toasted and laughed.

At this moment, Ji Lingchen’s phone rang. He looked at the caller ID and quickly got up to leave the private room.

Chairman Fang also caught a glimpse of his son-in-law’s phone screen from the corner of his eye. He was a little puzzled. Who was “Kitten”?

In the corridor, Ji Lingchen picked up the phone and asked lovingly, “Why aren’t you sleeping?”

Fang Xiaonuan said coquettishly, “Hubby, you haven’t come home yet. How could I fall asleep? When will you be back?”

Ji Lingchen looked in the direction of the private room. The people inside were chatting happily, and it would not be over anytime soon. He said, “I might be late. You can go to bed first. You still have classes tomorrow.”

Fang Xiaonuan said aggrievedly, “Alright then. I left the door open for you. Don’t be too late!”

Ji Lingchen heard his wife’s quiet voice and his heart softened. He smiled and replied, “Alright, got it.”

Fang Xiaonuan urged, “Don’t drink too much.”

Ji Lingchen said, “Don’t worry. Dad Is here too.”
