748 I’ve Been Hard of Hearing Lately

Su Jin was still sound asleep at home. She did not want to get out of bed at all. She was too tired from last night; even her back and legs felt sore. Although Su Jin wanted to sleep some more, her phone suddenly rang. Su Jin did not even open her eyes. She reached for her phone and declined the call immediately. No one was allowed to disturb her sleep.

But after hanging up several times, the calls kept coming. Su Jin could not take it anymore. Without caring who the caller was, she scolded as soon as she picked up, “Are you crazy? I’ve declined the calls so many times. It means that I don’t want to answer any calls. Don’t you get that?”

Xi Chenxiao held his phone with a confused expression on his face. He just called her; how was he scolded for no reason? Moreover, Su Jin’s voice was so loud that everyone in his office could hear her. Xi Chenxiao’s eyes were as cold as ice as he looked at Xi Tian who was not far away. Xi Tian felt a chill run through his entire body, so he immediately said to Xi Chenxiao, “Chairman, I’ve been hard of hearing lately.”

“I didn’t hear anything.”

Xi Tian then quickly walked out of the office. Xi Chenxiao was speechless. Xi Tian’s reaction had clearly expressed that he had heard something. Su Jin, who was on the other end of the call, did not hear anyone talking and was even more furious.

Someone called her so early in the morning but didn’t say anything after she picked up the call. Su Jin continued angrily, “You are really crazy. You called me and you don’t speak after I picked up. Do you have too many unused minutes?”

Su Jin was going to hang up and go back to sleep after she finished. She’d also put her phone on silent so that no other mentally ill person could disturb her. This was quite a rude thing to do – disturbing someone’s rest.

Su Jin was just about to hang up when a low and magnetic said aggrievedly over the phone, “Darling, it’s me.”

Su Jin’s eyes instantly widened. She held up her phone and looked at the caller ID. It was indeed the devil. This guy had been up all night. Shouldn’t he be at the office this morning? Why did he suddenly call her? Did something happen? Or was someone impersonating Xi Chenxiao?

Su Jin asked in surprise, “Xi Chenxiao?”

Xi Chenxiao’s face darkened. She had already hung up on him a few times and scolded him the minute she picked up the call. Now, she even dared to call him by his full name? Was Su Jin still unhappy? He must continue to coax her tonight, or their family life would not be harmonious.

But he must first change her habit of calling him by his name. Xi Chenxiao replied solemnly, “I’m your husband.”

“Call me hubby in future. You’re not allowed to call me by my name.”

Su Jin’s face was filled with helplessness. He called so early in the morning just for this? If that was the case, she would definitely teach Xi Chenxiao a hard lesson. Didn’t he know that she was really tired from last night? After she was more awake, she felt that Xi Chenxiao must have called her for a reason.

So, Su Jin said helplessly over the phone, “Okay.”

“Is there something you need?”

Xi Chenxiao sat at his desk with a smile. He couldn’t call his wife unless he needed something? Even if he needed something, he would have solved the problem himself instead of troubling his wife. It’s just that they had been apart for a while and Xi Chenxiao missed Su Jin. That’s why he called her.

Xi Chenxiao replied, “Yes, there is.”

Su Jin yawned and was going to ask Xi Chenxiao what the matter was. If it wasn’t something particularly important, Xi Chenxiao would have to pay the price. Didn’t he know the importance of beauty sleep? Su Jin sat up to clear her head so she could handle what’s coming.

Su Jin asked, “Tell me.”

“What is it?”

Xi Chenxiao knew now that this was because he still hadn’t made her happy. It seemed like he must try harder tonight when he got home. She couldn’t answer his call with this attitude every time, or it could sour their relationship.

Xi Chenxiao said heartachingly in his deep and magnetic voice, “Darling, can’t I call you if there was nothing?”

Su Jin was extremely sleepy and tired. She just wanted to lie down and have a good night’s sleep, or she would be a zombie the whole day. If the caller was anyone else, Su Jin might have already hung up or started scolding them. She had already given Xi Chenxiao a lot of face.

Su Jin replied a little impatiently, “So, you called me so early in the morning.”

“What’s the matter?”

“If there’s any matter, just tell me quickly. I’m very sleepy!”
