on softened a bit.He said softly, "Come here to Daddy."Little Lu is young and doesn't know much.The plump little body wobbled as it walked past, struggling to climb onto the sickbed. But no matter how...Jiang Lan returned to the villa.

He got out of the car, feeling a fatigue he had never experienced before. The servant approached him, hesitating to speak and then saying, "Sir, your wife's flight this afternoon... apparently she's going abroad for quite a while!"

I know!

Jiang Lan walked into the hall, threw the key on the coffee table, and sat down on the sofa, lost in thought.

The servant asked him if it was time for dinner, but he didn't notice.

After a moment of silence, he said quietly, “Open it!”

The maid moved swiftly, setting a full table of dishes in no time. However, Jiang Lan looked at them with no appetite whatsoever. He ate a few bites randomly before saying lightly, "From now on, I'll eat alone and just need four dishes and one soup."

The servant hastily explained, "When I went shopping this morning, I didn't know that Madam would be going abroad, so..."

She realized she had said too much and didn't continue.

Jiang Lan was looking through old photos when her father called. His voice sounded angry: “Lan Ting, didn’t you say you were bringing Huo Jiao back for dinner Your mother and I, along with Grandpa, have been waiting here for ages! Not even a single glimpse of you! Where is your wife I invited her personally. Expecting you to just make my mom cry every day at home.”

Mr. Jiang is not a fool.

He suspected long ago that their relationship wasn't good after marriage, but he didn't expect it to be so cold. He sneered and asked: "Didn't you say in the company that you were going to take her out for dinner It shows that you didn't even know she was leaving today. And you said she was going for half a year, how come you don't plan to visit her during this time, or want her to come home for a short stay Jiang Lan, when you marry a wife, do you think it's like raising cattle You can let them graze outside"

Jiang Lan frowned: "Dad, what do you mean by letting the cows graze freely"

"Father Jiang was unhappy: "Isn't this logical Anyway, you need to give me and your mother an explanation for this. A good wife just leaves like that You dare say you have no responsibility"

Jiang Lan originally had a bad mood.

My mood had worsened, I barely managed to placate my own father. He walked out to the balcony for a smoke… He kept checking his phone, knowing full well she couldn't reply while she was still on the plane.

This night, Jiang Lan listened to almost no sleep.

He kept waiting for Huo Jiao to land, then he would contact her. He didn't know what he was trying to confirm... Perhaps he wanted to confirm that she still liked him. Maybe this sudden trip abroad was just because of work and had nothing to do with their relationship.

until 4:30 am.

Huo Jiao finally started the live stream, Jiang Lan held her phone, connecting with her across a network.

When he opened his mouth, he didn't realize how difficult it would be.

He said, "Tonight I was supposed to take you home for dinner! Huo Jiao, I had a meeting this morning, I wasn't intentionally turning off my phone!"ruirui, as always, was aloof. Although he was happy inside, he pretended not to care on the surface.When Huo Xi drove someone, he couldn't help teasing his son a few words.Xiao Zhangrui started to fee...
