Chapter 170 Daily Communication Does Not Count as Disturbance

Meng Chuyuan finished looking at his phone and was silent for a few seconds before saying, "I thought it was something else. Why are you taking it so seriously when it's just a joke?"

Seeing that Lu Qingye said he didn't know what he needed, she casually replied about the transfer, what she wanted to express was that no gift could be more useful than money.

I just use this obscure way of expression to convince myself that it is natural to accept the money, and let the other party stop worrying about what they need.

It is said that smart women will not cause trouble for themselves, and she agrees with this statement.

Marrying into a family like Lu Qingye's, all she can do is to be herself, take whatever is given, and not be dissatisfied or make demands, on the premise that they do not interfere with each other and have no feelings for each other.

Lu Qingye naturally knew that it was a joke, and he finally took up Meng Chuyuan's joke on a whim, but after waiting for so long without any reply, he felt a little disappointed.

He tilted his head back slightly, glanced at the ceiling, and spoke with a slightly lowered voice, his lips parted. "One must finish what one begins, and the same goes for replying to messages."

“…” I really didn’t expect that I would be taught a lesson.

Meng Chuyuan was obviously worried that replying the message would disturb him, so how did it become her fault?

She thought about it and felt that what Lu Qingye said was not unreasonable, so she compromised with him: "Okay, I'll remember it. Next time I will reply to all the messages and turn off my phone after finishing."

Lu Qingye hummed in satisfaction, and then said, "We need to add one more clause to our prenuptial agreement."

"What do you want to add?"

Meng Chuyuan thought that he suddenly mentioned the supplementary agreement, which must be very important. However, when she heard Lu Qingye's request the next second, she was stunned.

“At least twice a week.”

Hearing this request, Meng Chuyuan's face was full of confusion: "Aren't you busy? How do you still have time to call?"

Twice a week?

Is this something a busy person can do?

Lu Qingye hummed again and said lightly: "I'll call you when I have time."

The mother's previous phone call complained about him being rude, saying that he had just married a daughter-in-law and didn't take the initiative to contact her.

He had just thought about it and felt that basic daily communication was still necessary, so he added a clause on the number of contacts to the agreement.

Meng Chuyuan laughed softly: "Mr. Lu, this is considered a breach of contract. We agreed before that no one would disturb each other..."

Before she could finish her words, Lu Qingye interrupted: "Daily communication does not count as interruption."

Meng Chuyuan could only obey his advice: "But I have to record a program tomorrow, and my phone needs to be handed in. We won't be able to contact each other for the next four days."

She is not very dependent on her mobile phone and has no special concerns or important messages to respond to.

Handing over her cell phone did not cause any trouble in her daily life, but now that Lu Qingye suddenly made such a request, she suddenly felt worried.

Lu Qingye didn't relent or lower his demands. "Call me tomorrow morning before the recording. Call me again after the second call when I get my phone."

Due to the time difference, he couldn't call as soon as he woke up, so he asked Meng Chuyuan to call him first.

——

The lights are on and the moon is high in the sky.

The green plants in the courtyard squeaked in the evening breeze, and the hazy moonlight mixed with the street lights added a touch of softness.

In the brightly lit hall, delicious dishes were placed on the table and the air was filled with the aroma of meat.

Everyone was sitting at the dining table, the delicious food was still steaming, but no one was about to start eating.

"Mom, why don't we eat first?"

Liao Jiayan brought her boyfriend home today and wanted to discuss the marriage with her parents. Originally, this was their own business, but her mother insisted on calling her sister and asking her to come home for dinner.

It was dinner time now, but Liao Jiake still hadn't shown up.

Liao's mother glared at her in dissatisfaction and scolded her in a low voice: "You only know how to eat whatever you want. Your sister and brother-in-law haven't come yet. Wait a little longer."

If this were an ordinary family dinner, Liao Jiayan would not urge her parents to start eating at all, but because her boyfriend was present tonight and she was scolded by her mother in person, she was a little angry.

"Mom, Xiao Gao took time out to come see you. He's really tired."

Liao Jiayan's boyfriend happened to be on a business trip here these two days, so he specially took a day off from work to come visit his future father-in-law and mother-in-law. Although he let them treat him as his own home when he first walked in, even so, guests are guests, so how could he be so ignorant of etiquette?

Liao Jiayan's boyfriend noticed that the atmosphere was not right. He was afraid that the two would quarrel, so he came over and said to Liao Jiayan, "I'm not tired. Let's wait a little longer."

Liao's mother: "They are already on the way and will be here soon."

However, Liao Jiayan was not convinced by this and even felt inexplicably dissatisfied: "I brought my boyfriend home for dinner, but you insisted on asking her to come back. What are you trying to do?"

At first, Liao Jiayan didn't get angry because her boyfriend was present, and her parents were always thinking about their eldest daughter, so she endured it.

As a result, they still hadn't arrived by dinner time, and Liao Jiayan was furious.

Liao's mother: "I have to cook a few more dishes anyway, so why not call your sister back to eat together? Maybe there will be traffic jam on the road and she will be here soon."

"You called her before dinner. Even if there was a traffic jam, could she have stayed here until now? It's almost eight o'clock. Do you think she's here?"

Father Liao sat in the main seat without saying a word. When he heard Liao Jiayan's emotions rising, he finally spoke seriously: "Stop arguing. What's wrong with waiting a little longer?"

The boyfriend had never expected to encounter such a scene when he first arrived. He could only persuade Liao Jiayan to calm down: "Yanyan, forget it."

At the same time, Liao Jiake and his team were on their way and happened to come across an intersection. They had to wait for the red light to pass before they could pass.

Xu Zeyi was driving himself. While the light was red, he leaned his head back and relaxed for a while on the back of the chair.

He tilted his head to glance at Liao Jiake, who was putting on makeup, and said lightly, "Didn't I tell you not to wait for me?"

"No, that won't work. My sister has gone home with her boyfriend. You have to go with me to meet him."

For this matter, she specifically called Xu Zeyi back home. Just as the two were about to go out, the mother-in-law saw that her son had finally come back and wanted to keep him at home for dinner.

The two of them came out after having dinner with their elders. There happened to be a traffic jam on the road, so they were still on the road.

Xu Zeyi hummed softly, then suddenly asked, "When will your variety show end?"

Liao Jiake finished applying her lipstick, pursed her lips, and said slowly, "I don't know. The contract doesn't specify. It seems that the recording period is determined by the data. Judging from the current situation, it should be difficult to wrap up for a while."
