Chapter 4: Chapter 4 Dinner Trouble

After Xu Ke and Zhang Zhicheng finished the paperwork, the sky had already darkened, and the phone that had been silent all day started ringing continuously.

Zhang Zhicheng glanced at the outdated phone of Xu Ke that buzzed non-stop and couldn't help but say, "You already have the Xu Family; there's really no need to stay cooped up in this small place. The sky outside is more suitable for you."

Xu Ke shook his head and said, "No! I'll stay here for the time being."

"This..." Zhang Zhicheng frowned.

"If I go back now, a lot of problems will be covered up. Let's expose some problems first, and then when I go back, these problems... can be solved altogether." Xu Ke's tone was somewhat cold.

Zhang Zhicheng stared at Xu Ke, then nodded heavily, "Alright! Mr. Xu, if there's anything you need from me, I'll do my best!" This was essentially an expression of his loyalty to Xu Ke.

"I have things to do, so I won't see you off. Safe travels." Xu Ke didn't plan to explain to Zhang Zhicheng. He waved his hand casually and turned to walk towards the electric bicycle, answering the call as he walked.

It's after work hours now; the Lin Family should already be home. Xu Ke knew clearly what this call was about.

Sure enough, as soon as the call connected, a familiar voice came through the receiver, "What do you mean, you useless trash? Didn't I just say a few words to you yesterday? So what? Today you're acting up, not even making dinner? What do you want? If you don't want to live this life, then just divorce Mengyao early and leave the Lin Family with your junk."

Every time Xu Ke came back in the past, he had dinner ready, so as soon as they got home, they could eat hot food. But today, when they came back, there was nothing ready, and Li Lihua, who had bottled up her anger all day, exploded and couldn't hold it back any longer.
