Chapter 1651: Chapter 1651: Who Can Be Fooled
"Rou!" Jian Dan directly turned the phone to show Qin Rou the caller ID on the screen.
Seeing it, Qin Rou also looked troubled, shaking her head to show she was powerless.
Jian Dan took a deep breath, adjusted her emotions, and then pressed the answer button.
"Uncle!" Jian Dan smiled, trying to appear as usual.
"Not back yet?" The moment the call connected, Chu Liyuan noticed the environment around Jian Dan, frowning slightly.
"Oh! I was just about to send you a video, Uncle, but you called. We really are in sync! Haha!"
"Donât change the subject!" Chu Liyuanâs expression darkened a shade.
"Uh! Itâs like this; someone just notified us that the roads here are quite badly damaged, so itâll take a few more days to repair!"
"Wait there, Iâm coming to get you!"
"Hold on, Uncle!" Seeing Chu Liyuan about to hang up the video call, Jian Dan quickly called out, "Uncle, youâre coming to pick me up? Itâs not good if I leave by myself with so many people in the crew!"
"Then Iâll pick everyone up together!" Chu Liyuan couldnât wait any longer.
God knows how he got through these days. If he hadnât promised Jian Jian, he would have flown over long ago. He had barely managed to wait for Jian Jian to return, only to run into this situation.
Do these things even matter in Chu Liyuanâs eyes?
He only knew that if he couldnât see Jian Jian soon, heâd really go crazy.
"Uncle, I think itâs better not to be too ostentatious. Not many people in the crew know your identity. If you come over like this, it seems like youâre flaunting wealth intentionally, and thatâs not good!
I think the roads should be open in a day or two. Uncle, how about you wait two more days?" Jian Dan spoke carefully.
After a moment of silence, Chu Liyuan said, "Okay!"
Okay? Uncle agreed?
"Jian Jian, I have to go to a meeting now."
"Oh! Then Uncle..." Before Jian Dan could finish, Chu Liyuan had already hung up the call.
"Hmm?" Jian Danâs eyes were full of confusion. This was probably the first time since their marriage that Uncle hung up first.
"Did my uncle suspect anything?"
"Probably not!"
Just as Jian Danâs call ended, Qin Rouâs phone rang again. Qin Rou used Jian Danâs exact wording, but it was useless, as Zhong Tianhao saw through it with one sentence.
In the end, it was Zhong Tianhao who got the truth out of her.
Qin Rou, who had been hung up on, looked at Jian Dan with a miserable expression, "Jian, are you lying to me?"
"What?"
"I tried saying the same thing to Tianhao that you said to your uncle, but he wasnât fooled at all!"
"Howâs that possible? But Uncle really didnât say anything, just âokayâ!"
"Jian, think about it! If Zhong Tianhao wasnât fooled, how could my uncle be?"
"Then..." Jian Danâs brow also slowly furrowed.
Meanwhile, after Chu Liyuan hung up the call.
"Chu Liyuan, find out immediately what exactly happened with Jian Jian. I need to know right away." The coldness in Chu Liyuanâs eyes gave off a distant, unapproachable aura.
Chu Liyuan shivered. He had forgotten how long it had been since he last saw such an expression in Chu Liyuanâs eyes.
He dared not delay even a moment.
With a cold face, Chu Liyuan was internally tumultuous, constantly churning. His mind was in an extremely tense state.
He was very clear in his heart that something must have happened with Jian Jian, something very serious. Otherwise, Jian Jian wouldnât react like this.
