Provocative Fiery Wife: My Superior is a Affectionate Spitfire

and… that woman, Ge Ge is different.”

She walked over to her son’s side and patted his back.
“Your dad isn’t trying break you guys up this time.
He’s giving her a chance to train at a branch company before promoting her.
This way, people won’t gossip about her and say nasty things when she’s by your side in the future.”

He paused a little when he heard his mother’s words.

So Pei Ge’s training at a branch company?

“Then, why can’t I get in touch with her?”

He looked at his father with suspicion, seemingly not buying it.

“Hmph! You didn’t know how to contact your girlfriend while you were overseas for work; I was just giving you a taste of how she felt.” His father scoffed, sounding as if he were looking out for Pei Ge.

In fact… he was only trying to let their son get a sense of how he and his wife felt when they could not get in touch with him.

En.
It actually did not have much to do with that woman at all…

“…” When he saw his father’s self-righteous manner, he instantly grew silent, and a hint of conflict flashed across his eyes.

Hearing her husband’s defense, Mother Ji was instantly reminded of how their son could not be contacted while he was abroad.

“Yeah, son, you didn’t tell us that you’re going to New York, and we couldn’t get through to your phone.
If it’s just your father and I, that’s fine, but even Ge Ge, your girlfriend, couldn’t get in touch with you.
What would she think of it?

“If Ge Ge’s friend didn’t see you there, who knows how worried she’d be?”

His expression became more dazed upon hearing his mother’s admonition.

“Son, tell your dad and I honestly; why didn’t you call Ge Ge at all when you went to New York for work?”

When her son did not speak, she became suspicious.

Although she believed that, with him having a new girlfriend, he would not get involved with that woman again, she still wanted to clarify things.

“I really was overseas for work, but I dropped my phone, and… it broke.”

“Hmph!” His father snorted disbelievingly.
“If you wanted to call, you could still call even if your phone was broken.”

“Yes, even if your phone broke, couldn’t you borrow someone else’s and make a call?”

She nodded in agreement with her husband.

“I did borrow someone else’s phone to send a text to… Pei Ge.”

He knitted his brows tightly together, suspicion in his voice.

He did borrow a phone to text her then, but why were his parents saying this?

“Eh? Really? Ge Ge didn’t receive any texts!” His mother believed his claim without doubt.

Didn’t receive anything?

How could she not receive anything? He sent a rather long message to her, and he even gave her his new number, but she never called.

And because of his pride, he did not call her, either…
