Chapter 1167: Chapter 1167: The morning of getting caught

Jian Dan stepped out of her room early in the morning and immediately witnessed a scene she shouldn’t have.

Molly had just opened Meng Ran’s door and was planning to sneak back into her own room before being discovered.

It just so happened that lately Jian Dan had been waking up earlier every morning, so there she was, catching Molly red-handed.

“Molly, what is this…” Jian Dan, with a sly smile, slowly approached Molly.

Molly, looking down at the floor and nervously rubbing her hands, stuttered “that… that… that…”

Seeing Molly like this, the corners of Jian Dan’s mouth couldn’t help but curl up; she hadn’t expected Molly to have such a shy side.

“We haven’t seen each other for just one night, and you’ve become a stutterer?” Jian Dan teased on purpose.

Molly didn’t speak, but her head sank even lower.

Seeing Molly so embarrassed that she almost wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into, Jian Dan decided to let her off for the moment. “Alright, alright, as someone who’s been there, I completely understand how you’re feeling right now. Hurry back to your room and digest the experience!”

What Jian Dan didn’t know was that her words only made Molly blush harder; she quickly opened her room door and fled inside…

Jian Dan saw the door left ajar, shook her head and muttered to herself, “They’re already legally married, what’s there to be shy about!”

“Jian Jian, you’re good at calling out others, but why don’t you reflect on yourself?” A pleasant voice came from behind Jian Dan.

Chu Liyuan had just come out of his room when he overheard Jian Jian speaking to Molly, his lips curving into a smile.

“Uncle, why did you get up so early too?” Jian Dan closed her eyes and secretly wondered, how could Uncle have heard her by such coincidence?

“There are some things at the company that I need to handle early today!”

“Oh! Uncle, you seem to have been very busy lately. Is there some problem?” Jian Dan asked with concern.

“Jian Jian, don’t change the subject. You haven’t answered my question yet,” Chu Liyuan said as he wrapped an arm around Jian Dan’s waist, forcing her to look into his eyes from up close.

Jian Dan’s heart suddenly became disobedient…

Seeing Jian Jian’s reaction, Chu Liyuan knew that he had successfully distracted her…

In fact, he had said that on purpose because Chu Liyuan didn’t want Jian Dan to dwell on his work matters.

Lately, Qin Corporation had faced some issues, and they weren’t small ones.

“Uncle, I’m hungry, let’s go eat quicker, okay?” Jian Dan tried to push away Chu Liyuan, but he held her even tighter.

“Jian Jian trying to escape?”

“Not at all! I’m just really hungry!” Jian Dan’s eyes began to flit around uncertainly.

“Let me check~” he said as he placed his hand on Jian Dan’s stomach. “Hmm! You do seem hungry! Let’s go then,” Chu Liyuan finally released Jian Dan.

Reaching the dining table, just as Jian Dan was about to start eating, Chu Liyuan leaned in close again and said, “Does Jian Jian actually have abs?”

At Chu Liyuan’s words, Jian Dan’s face instantly flushed red; when Uncle had touched her stomach, she’d tensed up nervously.

“That … that … that…

With Uncle’s physique being so good, of course I also have to exercise occasionally. That’s how I can be worthy of Uncle!” Jian Dan thought hard before coming up with this excuse that was barely an excuse.

“Oh~ So that’s the reason!” Chu Liyuan paused for a moment and then continued, “Jian Jian, you just stuttered, didn’t you?”

Jian Dan had a look of total dismay. Uncle was really doing this on purpose today, wasn’t he? Jian Dan racked her brain but couldn’t think of when she had offended Uncle.
