Chapter 222 Your mother's call

After finishing speaking, Jiang Yibai lowered his head and prepared to listen to other things.

At this moment, Zhou Yi still stood in front of the desk and did not leave. She looked at Jiang Yibai steadily, lowering her eyes to see his busy figure, and there flashed a flash of infatuation that no one could understand in her eyes.

Perhaps it was because Zhou Yi's gaze was too strong, Jiang Yibai lowered his head and worked for a few minutes. When he noticed Zhou Yi's presence, he raised his head and asked again.

"Anything else?"

What does it mean to stay in front of his desk, not speaking, and silently looking at him?

Is she not satisfied with the work he arranged?

Zhou Yi retracted her infatuated gaze at this moment and turned to a businesslike look.

"Director Jiang, when you were in the meeting just now, your mother called you and told you to call her back when you are free."

Jiang Yibai repeated the key points of his words in confusion.

"My mother called me?"

He couldn't help but wonder about her mother. Could something have happened again?

Zhou Yi continued to repeat her previous words.

"Yes, your mother asked you to call her back when you are free. She didn't say what it was."

After that, she strode away. If she didn't leave, she would inevitably reveal some flaws if she stayed in Jiang Yibai's office for too long. It would be better for her to leave first.

When Zhou Yi's figure disappeared outside the office, Jiang Yibai came back to his senses, picked up the phone beside him, and dialed his home number directly.

At this moment, Liu Hong was sitting in the living room at home, staring at the TV screen. The infatuated man and the resentful woman in the series were crying so sadly, and she also cried so hard, not noticing that Dongfang beside her had a flash of disgust in his eyes, feeling very anxious.

After calling Jiang Yibai, it was almost an hour later, and there was no ring on the landline at home. No one knew what Jiang Yibai was busy with, and he didn't even have time to call home. It was obvious that Liu Hong had no influence on the two twins. At

this moment, Dongfang even had some doubts about whether it was feasible for him to chase Jiang Yize and save the country through Liu Hong's roundabout way.

"Ding-a-ling..."

Fortunately, when Dongfang was caught up in self-entanglement and doubt, the landline in Liu Hong's living room finally rang. Dongfang came to his senses immediately, and while Liu Hong was still in the melancholy drama, he quickly answered the phone.

"Hello, who are you looking for?"

Dongfang mechanically spoke after picking up the phone.

Jiang Yibai, who was on the other end of the phone, held the receiver, suspecting that he had dialed the wrong number. He took another look at the number and said uncertainly.

"Who are you? Let my mother answer the phone. I'm Jiang Yibai."

Yes, Dongfang's mechanical tone of answering the phone sounded very much like the accent of a radio official lady. Jiang Yibai subconsciously thought that she was the new servant in the family.

After all, when he called home, no one would usually speak to him in such an official way, or even use "hello". He

simply gave his full name.

He suddenly heard the other party coldly asking who she was. Dongfang subconsciously wanted to use his own name, but then he thought, this is Liu Hong's home, it's okay for him to answer the phone, but he can't take away the right of mother-son conversation between Liu Hong and Jiang Yibai, right? So he changed his tone to be more polite.

"Oh, are you Jiang Yibai? Your aunt is at home, please wait a moment, I'll let her come to answer the phone."

Then he called in the direction of Liu Hong.

"Aunt, it's Jiang Yibai's phone number. Please come over and answer it."

If she wanted to get news about Jiang Yize, Liu Hong would have to find out in person. If she asked Jiang Yibai rashly

, he would not tell her and would try to cover it up. So, why not let Liu Hong and Jiang Yibai say whatever they want? Anyway, it would be good if they could find out Jiang Yize's address in the end.

Liu Hong was so moved by the loving scenes in the TV series that she was confused. There were still traces of crying on her face. She turned around and heard that her son had finally called.

At first, she did not react to what was going on. It took her a while to remember that Dongfang had just asked her to find out the whereabouts of his eldest son. She called his youngest son and told his secretary to call him back.

Now that the phone rang, she had to stand up and answer it reluctantly, temporarily withdrawing all her thoughts from the touching love and affection in the TV series. She had to admit that the TV series of Aunt Yao was very emotional for a boss like Liu Hong.

She cried along with the TV series, as sad as if her parents had died, so much so that when Liu Hong took the phone and talked to Jiang Yibai, her voice was filled with tears and sadness.

Even Jiang Yibai, who was on the other end of the phone, couldn't help but frown when he heard his mother's crying voice, and subconsciously said,

"Mom, what's wrong with you? Why do I feel like you've been crying?"

In his heart, he couldn't help but wonder, is it because of the days when the two brothers were not at home? His father and his mother quarreled again. They haven't quarreled for several years. Why did they quarrel again suddenly? Is it because of his eldest brother marrying Qin Sisi?

Liu Hong coughed a few times while holding the phone, forcing herself to get rid of the sad mood, and explained.

"Oh, nothing. I just watched a TV series where the male and female protagonists love each other but are not together. It's so sad that I cried a little."

Jiang Yibai: "..."

So, his mother was so moved by the TV series that she called him to share her sadness?

If that's the case, then he really lamented that his father and mother should have given birth to a daughter after giving birth to them. If he had a younger sister, she would accompany his mother to watch TV series now. Even if it was a touching love story, he would go to talk to his younger sister and wouldn't disturb his brothers' work, right?

So, the son who was having a headache pinched his eyebrows and said impatiently.

"Mom, you asked me to call you before, what's the matter?"

If it was because she wanted to share her sorrow with him after watching a TV series, then he really didn't have time to listen to his mother's chatter.

At this time, Dongfang on the side had been anxious like an ant on a hot pot, circling in place. She looked at Liu Hong helplessly, holding the microphone and talking nonsense with her son opposite, but she didn't get to the point for a long time, so she hurriedly reminded him in a low voice.

"Auntie, tell him about Yi Ze as soon as possible."

Really, Liu Hong is a typical housewife. She has been talking for a long time but still hasn't gotten to the point. She is almost dying of anxiety.

Dongfang's reminder made Liu Hong quickly get into the state. Finally, she remembered the main purpose of making the call. Liu Hong took the microphone and hurriedly said.
