Chapter 171: Chapter 171: Taking a Concubine for Her Husband
The two, after staying up all night, indeed slept more deeply than usual.
There were several vibrations from the cell phone on the bedside table before Jiang Ye opened his eyes, and the woman in his arms burrowed even deeper:
"Who is it?"
It was clear from her tone that she was very impatient.
"It’s no one, keep sleeping, I’ll take the call."
Saying this, he reached out for his phone.
But when he saw who the caller was, his eyes instantly sharpened.
Jiang Qiu?
A slight cold smirk formed as he answered:
"Aunt?"
There was not a trace of warmth in his address as "Aunt."
Instead, it was very cold.
On the phone, Jiang Qiu immediately started laying into him:
"Aye, Xiyue is your fiancée, how can you treat her like this?"
The Gu Family had called many times before, but Jiang Ye hadn’t answered any of them.
Clearly, it was clever to switch callers.
After all, he would definitely pick up a call from the Jiang family.
But, when it came to Aunt Jiang Qiu, Jiang Ye hadn’t been very close to her since childhood, at most he would just greet her out of respect as a younger family member.
Fiancée?
"Aunt, medicine can be taken recklessly, but words must not be spoken carelessly!"
"Speaking carelessly? What have I said carelessly? Everyone knows clearly about you and Xiyue. Both families are just waiting for when you two will settle things. Isn’t it too much now for you to deny it?"
Too much?
"Aunt, aren’t you mistaken about something?
When did I ever agree?"
Pfft~
Jiang Qiu was infuriated:
"Aye!
Your grandfather has adored Xiyue since she was young. How upset would he be if he knew what you’re doing now?
He’s old and doesn’t have many other wishes, just hoping that you and Xiyue would settle things soon. Are you really going to defy him on this one matter?"
Well, they even brought the old man into this.
The person in Jiang Ye’s arms had already woken up and overheard every word of their conversation.
At the moment, her mood was not very pleasant.
Jiang Qiu, huh~
Jiang Ye noticed the movement of the person in his arms, tightened his arm around her, then continued to speak into the phone:
"Aunt, my parents don’t even interfere in my affairs, where do you get the confidence?"
That was quite rude.
Jiang Qiu was infuriated and retorted:
"Jiang Ye, is this the way you speak to your elders? I’m your aunt, would I harm you?
Xiyue is the most suitable choice for you, there isn’t a second one!"
For Gu Xiyue’s sake, was Aunt Jiang Qiu really this agitated?
"Aunt, if you think she’s a good person, you can take her home yourself.
It’s best you don’t meddle in my affairs at all!"
With that, he hung up the phone.
Jiang Ye’s words had a double meaning; Jiang Qiu didn’t have a son, only a daughter, so if she brought someone home, wouldn’t she just be taking a mistress for her husband?
It must be said, sometimes Captain Jiang could be really harsh.
Remember, Jiang Qiu was an elder who had watched him grow up from childhood, yet he showed no mercy.
Lu Jing wasn’t feeling so good before, but now, well, it was an indescribable feeling, his lips twitching violently.
Jiang Ye threw the phone aside, turned over, and pressed down on the woman:
"Don’t you want to talk about why you reacted so strongly to Jiang Qiu?"
Jiang Ye wasn’t stupid.
On the contrary, he was as shrewd as they come.
Lu Jing didn’t even have time to react:
"What are you doing?"
The man pressed down fully:
"Speak!"
Cough cough.
Faced with the man’s assertive attitude, Lu Jing moved her lips:
"What do you want me to say?" she countered.
