    Then, the six members of the Ji family sat in the living room, determined to resolve the conflict.


    Ji Lingchen exined, “In the afternoon, I received a call. The person on the line said that the equipment at the eastern development site had malfunctioned, causing radiation. At that time, there were a few women there, so I asked for the exact number of women present. After that, I rushed to the site. I spent the entire afternoon at the development site waiting for the results so that the experts could deal with it.”


    Of course, he did not say that he had deliberately mentioned women to make his wife jealous.


    Fang Xiaonuan sat opposite her husband and said, “But you clearly implied that you were going to see another woman.”


    Ji Lingchen said, “I said that on purpose to make you jealous.”


    Fang Xiaonuan said, “Are you crazy!”


    Ji Lingchen had no choice but to take out his phone and hand it to his wife. “You can check whether or not I’ve talked to other women.”


    Fang Xiaonuan took the phone and began to check it. Then, she almost shouted, “Ji Lingchen, you spoke to Lin Rou on the phone!”


    Her shrill voice gave Ji Lingchen a headache. He would not dare to provoke his wife on purpose in the future. The consequences were too severe, and he could not bear it.


    “Xiaonuan, look again. She called me, but I didn’t pick up,” Ji Lingchen exined.


    Fang Xiaonuan looked again. He had not picked up, but she saw another suspicious number. She shouted, “But you answered this other call. This person also has the surname, ‘Lin’.”


    Ji Lingchen patiently exined again, “That was one of the experts who fixed the equipment today. He has nothing to do with Lin Rou.”


    Fang Xiaonuan said, “There’s an unknown number here.”


    Ji Lingchen said, “That number belongs to Lin Rou’s father. He begged me to show mercy to Lin Qian and restore her academic status. I told him that my wife is now the principal and that they were begging the wrong person. Then I hung up.”


    Fang Xiaonuan’s anger had yet to dissipate even as she listened to her husband’s exnation. Seeing that the two of them were at a stalemate, Old Master Ji took out his phone and dialed Mr. He’s number.


    “Hello, Mr. He. Yes, it’s me. I have something to ask you. This afternoon, Lingchen, he…”


    No one could hear what the other person was saying. Old Master Ji heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Is that so? Lingchen has been at the scene all afternoon. What about the few female staff on site?”


    Old Master Ji added, “Oh, they left long ago. Hmm, you guys did the right thing. Women’s bodies are more sensitive. They definitely should have left the site and gone for a medical checkup.”


    Fang Xiaonuan listened carefully to Old Master Ji’s side of the call and finally confirmed her husband’s whereabouts. However, when she thought about how her husband was deliberately trying to provoke her, she wished she could go to him and hit him a few times.


    “Mr. He, is your WeChat ount your phone number? Let’s add each other on the app. We can contact each other there if there’s a need,” said Old Master Ji.


    “Ah? You didn’t even have WeChat? You’re too outdated!”


    “Hurry up and get someone to download it for you. My daughter-inw registered a WeChat ount for me today. My family already has a group chat, so it’s very convenient!”


    “I’m the group admin, so I have the most power. I can add whoever I want, and kick whoever I dislike out. Hurry up and download it too.” Old Master Ji kept showing off his position as the group admin to his old friend. He returned to his room after the he made the call.


    Mayor Ji held his wife’s hand, indicating that it was time to give the couple some space. Ji Wen also left quietly. Now, only the two of them were left in the living room.


    Fang Xiaonuan was still sulking and did not say anything. Ji Lingchen took the initiative to walk over and hold his wife’s hand. However, Fang Xiaonuan unceremoniously shook her husband’s hand away. Although her husband did not cheat on her, he deliberately said those things to make her jealous. She had felt so terrible the entire afternoon. She had not settled the score with him yet! She went back to the bedroom in a huff, and her husband followed her.


    Ji Lingchen realized that his words had thoroughly angered his wife. Heforted her gently, “Xiaonuan, I won’t go to the office tomorrow. I’ll teach you how to drive, okay?”


    Fang Xiaonuan said, “No need!”


    Ji Lingchen asked fawningly, “Then, shall we go to Shuxiang Garden for dinner tomorrow?”


    “No, you should bring your female friends with you. Eat as much as you want!” Fang Xiaonuan said angrily.


    Ji Lingchen was at a loss for words.


    That night, the two of them did not cuddle each other to sleep. Fang Xiaonuan stayed far away from her husband and did not go near him for the entire night.


    The next day, Ji Lingchen wanted to spend the whole day with his wife, but when he opened his eyes, she was no longer lying next to him. He went downstairs and saw his nephew sitting in the living room. He asked, “Where’s your aunt?”


    Ji Wen said, “She went to meet Liu Siyu. She wants toin about you.”


    “Liu Siyu?” Ji Lingchen asked.
