When Ruan Jianguo received a call from Old Master Shu, he was taken aback for a moment. Old Master Shu rarely called him directly; he usually called Shu Jiao.
Seeing the call, he thought it was something important and quickly answered it. But as soon as he said "Dad" in a sycophantic manner, he was overwhelmed by a torrent of scolding, making him question his life and wonder if he had done something outrageously bad.
It turned out that it was just because he had instructed Duan Xi to pick up his daughter.
Listening to Old Master Shu's questioning on the other side, wondering what he thought of his place, Ruan Jianguo felt terrible. Yet, unlike Qin Qiong, who was eloquent, he couldn't make Old Master Shu smile with just a few words.
When he hung up the call, he felt quite down after being scolded.
Even so, he didn't think too much about being set up; he just worried about how he would endure visiting his wife's family during the New Year...
