YM778.TV Chapter 205 Bad News
Wei Yan and Ming Guang exchanged worried glances, and Wei Yan hurriedly looked at her phone. He couldn\'t exactly answer it, because this was an invasion of Miss Li\'s privacy, but thankfully it wasn\'t a stalker.
It was just her mother, which then brought out a whole host of new questions - for a start, was everything alright at home? If Wei Yan\'s own parents called him ten times without an answer, he\'d assume the worst - that a car came and ploughed into his family, leaving one survivor. Or a meteorite had hit their house, so now they were homeless.
No matter what it was, it can\'t be good news. With that in mind, Wei Yan took her phone and gingerly knocked on the door, ignoring Ming Guang\'s disapproving looks.
"What is it?" Sun Jingwei\'s voice emerged from the bathroom, sounding remarkably peeved.
"Sorry to interrupt, but Miss Li\'s mother has been trying to reach her daughter via her phone. She has called 10 times so far. We\'re worried that it might be something urgent." Wei Yan explained.
"Shit," came Xue Ning\'s voice from the bathroom. "Got it! Thanks for letting me know! I\'ll be right out!"
In the bathroom, Xue Ning hurriedly detangled herself from Jingwei and dove straight into the shower, rinsing her body and her hair as though her ass was on fire. Sure, her mother wasn\'t visiting, but Xue Ning had a feeling her mother would just know what she was up to mere minutes before picking up her call. And if her father and brother let her call ten times without stopping her… clearly there must be some trouble back home!
Jingwei could only sigh at the interruption, his eyebrows furrowed in worry, preparing to wrap Xue Ning up in a large fluffy blanket when she was done showering.
On second thought. Maybe not. Jingwei\'s mind helpfully brought up the last time he saw Xue Ning clad in a towel, and how said towel fell off accidentally to reveal her sumptuous breasts clad in a sexy bra. Now there was no underwear at all - he couldn\'t take the risk!
Instead he decided to let Xue Ning wear one of his personalised bath robes. It was a little too big for her, but at least there would be no chance of accidental flashing! He made a mental note to get bathrobes for her later.
And true enough, when Xue Ning emerged from the bathroom in a few minutes, with her hair damp, she was clad in a fluffy bathrobe that was too big for her. It was clearly meant for a man of Jingwei\'s height, which meant that it was nearly touching her ankles. Sun Jingwei followed her out with a towel wrapped around his waist.
"Thanks for letting me know," Xue Ning said hurriedly, patting Wei Yan on his arm as she dashed to check on her phone.
"No problem," Wei Yan said weakly, feeling his skin flush from where she touched him. Miss Li did look stunningly cute in the bathrobe.
"Ahem," Jingwei pulled himself to his full height and narrowed his eyes, reminding this man that he also existed and he recognized that inkling of interest in his eyes as he stared at Xue Ning, even if Xue Ning didn\'t.
Wei Yan stared at the floor, feeling strangely guilty. But then when he thought more carefully, he realised it was ridiculous - there was no harm with simply looking!
He raised his head, but by then Jingwei had already gone to his closet to select his sleepwear, uncaring of his state of undress. Meanwhile, Xue Ning didn\'t even notice, because she was quickly calling her mom.
"Mom! What\'s the problem? Did something happen to you and Dad?" Xue Ning asked.
"Funny you should say that," her mother replies, sounding uncharacteristically venomous. "Seeing that it\'s your precious fake husband at fault!"
"Huh?" Xue Ning turned to look at Jingwei who was pulling on a T-shirt. "What did he do? What can he even do?"
Jingwei was with her for the whole day!?
"WHAT?" Xue Ning yelled, and everyone startled in surprise. "Is everyone alright?"
"Your dad got a cut on his arm, but your sister-in-law got a bad shock and is resting on the bed." Her mother snarled from the other end of the call. "See! This is what your father and I were most worried about! I don\'t know what lies that brat fed you, but he and his family cannot be trusted! All foxes and snakes!"
"Dad got cut?" Xue Ning asked, focusing on the more important part of her words. "Did you guys go to the hospital?"
"No need for hospitals!" came her father\'s voice in the background. "I\'m fine!"
"You are not fine you stubborn twat," her mother yelled back to him. "Tai Xuan, haul your father to the doctor!"
"He didn\'t go to the doctor?! What the hell Dad? Are we that short of money?" Xue Ning demanded.
At her words, Jingwei immediately reached for his phone to transfer money to her. He didn\'t know how much regular people spent at hospitals, so he gauged based on his own experience. Surely 10 million yuan was enough!
Meanwhile Xue Ning\'s father continued to complain. "Why would I need the doctor? I have a bottle of iodine solution here. The knife wasn\'t even close to cutting me! Don\'t underestimate my abilities! These thugs aren\'t even good at their jobs - I should put them to washing dishes!"
Xue Ning rolled her eyes through her worry. What abilities could her father have? He only knew how to cook noodles! It was a miracle he only got one cut!
"Stop trying to sound cool. They were clearly good enough to land a cut on you." was her mother\'s sarcastic reply. "Now go to the doctor before I decide on making myself a widow."
"Xue Ning! Your mother is so harsh!" Her father continued to whine. "Speak some sense into her on my behalf!"
"Go to the hospital!" Xue Ning yelled, throwing her hand up into the air. "In fact, all of you should go to the hospital! Are you sure you\'re alright?"
There was an ominous pause.
