The sound in the receiver had completely lost its daytime coolness and tranquility, a complete 180-degree change.
It's over.
The big boss is turning into a child.
Bai Lu didn't care about anything else, her voice instantly softening: "How much longer until you come back?"
There was a pause on the other end of the phone before a soft voice came through: "I don't know either, what's wrong?"
They've become more talkative.
Bai Lu sighed and rubbed her forehead helplessly: "Is Wang Hao next to you? Let Wang Hao answer the phone."
"Why did you let Wang Hao answer the phone!" The child was angry, her tone cold and hard: "I'm right here, why did you let Wang Hao answer the phone? You're my wife, not Wang Hao's wife, are you still my Lulu?"
"Yes, yes, I am your Lulu."
Bai Luzhen couldn't stand the three-year-old's tantrum, so she explained softly, "Chen Chunli has a bit of an upset stomach and came to our house. She wants to make a phone call to Wang Hao. You can have Wang Hao answer the phone, and I'll let Chen Chunli answer it too."
The child on the other end of the phone seemed to understand, and called out in some direction, "Come out."
Bai Lu thought it was calling Wang Hao.
Less than a second later, the receiver picked up a painful cry from someone who had been hit by a cabinet and had fallen over.
this……
Could it be that the counter clerk was so frightened by Xiao Cheng that she hid under the counter, and when she heard Xiao Cheng call her, she scrambled out in a panic, bumped into the counter, and fell down?
How pitiful.
At the counter of the nightclub, Xiao Cheng frowned as he stared at the figure on the ground, clutching his knee and struggling to get up.
"Go and call Wang Hao out."
"Okay, Brother Cheng, I'll be right there." The clerk scrambled out of the counter and rushed to the private room to find the person.
He tripped and fell again at the corner, but before he could even cry out in pain, he quickly got up and kept running.
It felt like a ghost was chasing us.
The clerk at the counter couldn't understand why Xiao Cheng had such two extreme faces. When he was on the phone, his tone was incredibly gentle, but when he spoke to them, his tone was terrifyingly inhuman, like a Yama, the King of Hell, who had come from hell to take lives.
Fortunately, he managed to escape.
Those who stayed behind at the counter were in trouble.
It was indeed a terrible situation... The young man at the counter nervously handed a cigarette to Xiao Cheng, and Xiao Cheng reached out to take it.
The phone suddenly slid.
Xiao Cheng clenched his left hand instantly, and with his right hand, which had just been extended, he slapped the cigarette away.
His deep, cold eyes suddenly lashed out: "Are you looking for a beating?"
The counter clerk was instantly enveloped by an aura of death. He tried to explain, but it felt as if something invisible was choking him, and he couldn't utter a sound.
Xiao Cheng is definitely angry. We're doomed.
Although I don't know why offering a cigarette is wrong, the devil in front of me is angry and wants to beat me up.
Just when the counter clerk thought he was doomed, the phone in Xiao Cheng's hand suddenly rang with heavenly music.
"Acheng?"
Help! It's that girl!
The girl who could make Xiao Cheng soften his tone!
The clerk at the counter was frantically pleading for help and making desperate wishes, hoping the girl on the other end of the phone would say just a few more words.
Summon the demon away quickly.
Xiao Cheng, who was being treated like a demon, instantly withdrew his murderous gaze upon hearing the girl's call.
"Lulu, I'm here."
The counter clerk was stunned.
The next second, he was so shocked that his mind went completely blank, because Xiao Cheng, he, he, he, he, he actually laughed!
She spoke into the microphone in a particularly gentle voice, "The private room is a bit far from the counter. Wang Hao hasn't arrived yet. Will you wait a little longer? Have you eaten?"
Bai Lu: "..."
"Do you want to check what time it is?"
Xiao Cheng swept his cold gaze across the area.
The clerk at the counter immediately looked up at the clock on the wall and quietly announced the time: "9:45."
It wasn't that the clerk at the counter wanted to eavesdrop; it's just that telephones in this era didn't have very good soundproofing.
Xiao Erge could hear everything clearly, whether it was the girl's voice on the phone or the agonizing cries of the Grim Reaper outside. The only way to avoid hearing it was to cover his ears.
But if he covered his ears, he wouldn't be able to hear Xiao Cheng if he needed to contact him, and he wouldn't be able to live at all.
I had no choice but to grit my teeth and continue listening.
Xiao Cheng replied in his incredibly gentle voice, "9:45."
It's already 9:46!
The counter clerk dared to think it but dared not say it.
The next second, he heard the girl on the phone say what he wanted to say but dared not: "You know it's 9:45, when are you coming back?"
What courage!
Xiao Cheng was not angry at all; instead, he said, "It will be soon."
The girl asked again, "What time is 'soon'?"
Xiao Cheng looked up at the clock on the wall behind the counter, and remained silent for a moment, seemingly calculating the time.
A moment later.
Wang Hao is out.
It's unclear whether Xiao Cheng had anything to say, but the counter clerk saw that Xiao Cheng handed the phone to Wang Hao, who was also a bit drunk and reeked of alcohol.
Wang Hao called out, "Sister-in-law."
The counter clerk finally understood why Xiao Cheng had two faces, but before he could think about it further...
The phone then rang loudly throughout the hall—
"Wang Hao! Where the hell have you been! It's so late and you're still not back. Are you trying to sleep on the streets?!"
The earth-shattering roar of the lioness from Hedong left not only the counter clerk and the waiter who had just returned stunned.
Even Hu Biao, who had followed them out, was taken aback.
Wang Hao, who was drunk, seemed to be stunned by the shouting.
The only one who didn't react was Xiao Cheng. Not only did Xiao Cheng not react, he also frowned in displeasure.
Clearly, they didn't like the sound.
Not only did Xiao Cheng dislike it, but the clerks at the counter also disliked it; they preferred the gentle girl's voice from earlier.
Where did that girl go?
Why did the shrew suddenly burst out with a roar?
Chen Chunli's shout not only stunned the dance hall, but also Bai Lu, Xiao Wei, and He Yulan, who were at Xiao Cheng's house, were taken aback.
Xiao Wei, in particular, was utterly shocked by Chen Chunli's dramatic change from quietly waiting for the call to her roaring, shrewish phone call. His eyebrows furrowed so deeply they could have killed a fly.
Bai Lu hadn't expected that Chen Chunli's quiet wait for the phone call after entering the room wasn't a sudden change, but rather a sign that she was holding back a lot of anger, waiting to unleash it on the phone.
After a moment of stunned silence, He Yulan quickly stepped forward to comfort Chen Chunli: "Don't get angry, take care of your health..."
"What are you being careful about!"
Chen Chunli shoved away He Yulan's outstretched hand: "Your son doesn't care about the child, so what do you care about!"
Bai Lu noticed that Chen Chunli was a bit agitated, wondering if it was due to severe pregnancy symptoms or something else.
His angry eyes did indeed reveal a fierce and ruthless nature, but there was also a subtle undercurrent of fear and unease.
It's just not very obvious. Bai Lu studied micro-expressions and can see some of it.
It's late at night, and for a pregnant woman about to give birth, such extreme emotional fluctuations are not a good sign.
Bai Lu poured her a glass of warm water: "Drink some water, speak properly, Wang Hao will be back soon."
Chen Chunli was feeling irritable and wanted to curse, but when she saw it was Bai Lu, she remembered what Bai Lu had said last time.
The words caught in his throat, and after a long pause, he finally spoke stiffly, "Call Wang Hao back."
