Chapter 1975 - 1985: Why Haven’t You Come Back Yet?
"I have some business to attend to outside, I’ll be back later. You and Uncle Huo have dinner first, don’t wait for me.""Scammer, you said you’d be back early, but again you left me home alone!" Bae Chi’s voice was more displeased, muttering, "Is The Neighbor Old Wang with you?"
The sound of running water came from the bathroom, Chi Enen feared he heard it, she covered the mobile phone’s receiver with her hand, got up, and walked to the window, "...No, no he isn’t."
"Are you sure The Neighbor Old Wang isn’t with you?" Bae Chi obviously didn’t believe it, "He sneaked away while I was playing mobile games in the study room, he hasn’t returned yet. If he’s not with you, where did he go?"
Chi Enen composed herself and said, "Maybe he had something to do."
"I still think he’s with you."
"No... really no..." Chi Enen had a sudden idea, "Maybe he went to the hospital."
Bae Chi was indeed misled by her, "You say he went to Uncle Sichen’s place?"
"Maybe."
Chi Enen didn’t even know why she lied to Bae Chi about Li Beijue not being with her, at the moment Bae Chi suddenly asked, she nervously lied.
Then one lie led to countless lies to cover it up.
"What did he go to Uncle Sichen for? Why didn’t he take me, leaving me home alone, you’re all not at home, so boring." Bae Chi complained discontentedly, "Neither of you think of me."
"Isn’t Butler Huo with you?" Chi Enen felt guilty after what he said.
Bae Chi seemed to pout, then said, "Just me and Uncle Huo at home is boring too, even playing ’Fight the Landlord’ needs three people, what are we supposed to do with just two of us at home?"
Originally, with internet, he could play online games with Huo Yi.
The main thing is, for some unknown reason, the house lost its network connection.
Two men at home, with no internet, he was bored to explosion.
"You can watch animated films."
"Tired of them."
"Then watch your favorite TV drama?" Chi Enen suggested.
Bae Chi seemed annoyed and called out to her, "Chi Enen, hurry back. If you don’t come back soon, your son will become an idiot."
"..." Someone who says things like that doesn’t need to change, already an idiot.
"That’s settled then, come back early. On your way back, buy a deck of poker cards, since there’s no internet tonight, we’ll play poker instead."
Chi Enen had no choice, and since she was the one who lied first, she lacked confidence, unusually compliant, she agreed, "Mm, got it."
Bae Chi got a satisfactory answer, the crispness in his voice finally lacked so much displeasure, he quickly said, "That’s the plan then. I’ll wait for you to come back. Remember to give The Neighbor Old Wang a call, ask him to come back early too. Tonight the three of us will play poker."
Listening to the sound of water gushing by her ear, Chi Enen guiltily agreed, "Okay."
Bae Chi didn’t think much of it, satisfied, he hung up the phone.
Chi Enen heard the dial tone from the mobile phone, set the phone down, and relaxed her shoulders. She walked back beside the bed.
She was scared to death; she feared Bae Chi would find out she lied. If he discovered she lied, he’d certainly become suspicious, then she couldn’t hide it from him anymore.
Fortunately, today Bae Chi didn’t notice the loophole in her words, otherwise...
