Chapter 620: 622 Pregnancy (9)_1
"..."
Wen Nuan glared at Qin Shaojin, "Seriously, how can you be so unscrupulous? After all, we’re relatives."
"..."
Thinking of the nickname Wangzi had for her, Wen Nuan clenched her teeth in frustration—such a toxic mouth paired with a black heart!
The thought of the advertising fees she was going to lose made her wince in pain!
She looked at Qin Shaojin, "I’ll compensate you for the phone another day. If there’s nothing else, I’m going back to catch up on sleep."
Qin Shaojin watched her with amusement, "You didn’t ask whether there was a check inside."
Wen Nuan was dumbstruck!
A check?
Yeah, the check could be for ten million!
But where had she ever seen a check? How could she have thought of that!
Seeing Wen Nuan standing silently, Qin Shaojin snapped his fingers, "Going back to sleep, you wish."
Wen Nuan, her face flushed, looked at Qin Shaojin, "Then, how about I continue to eat pig kidneys? They pay fifty thousand a day, but I’ll take just twenty thousand, OK?"
"Not OK."
"Then let’s call the police! Maybe they can still find it!"
Wen Nuan stood there, dialing 110 on the phone.
Soon, a police officer arrived and took Wen Nuan and Qin Shaojin to the station to provide statements and review nearby CCTV footage, but they found no leads and were told to wait for a call.
Wen Nuan left the police station dejectedly, standing there and sneaking a glance at Qin Shaojin.
Why was it that nothing good ever happened when she was with him?
She and he were clearly not destined to get along, it was fate’s own conflict!
Qin Shaojin looked at Wen Nuan, "What, expecting me to drive you back home?"
Wen Nuan suddenly remembered she hadn’t brought her wallet, and upon checking, she was still wearing slippers! She probably hadn’t taken her keys either!
What to do?
Beg him meekly?
No way!
"I...I’ll take the bus."
Qin Shaojin ignored Wen Nuan, got into his car, and drove away.
Wen Nuan stood there, frustrated, watching the direction Qin Shaojin left in. Did he have to be so petty? It wasn’t like she did it on purpose! Besides, he was partly to blame; with such poor vigilance, he hadn’t even noticed the thief in his own car!
And talk about lacking in gentlemanly manners!
After enough complaining, she slowly trudged back home in her slippers, all the while calling Bi Fu, "Mom, when are you coming back home? I just went downstairs to buy something and forgot to take my keys."
——"Call a locksmith."
"I ran out of money after shopping."
——"I should be home by six. You can go to the third floor—"
Wen Nuan silently hung up and kicked in annoyance, causing her slipper to fly off.
She heard a "bang" and looked up to see Du Bin’s car!
How embarrassing!
Wen Nuan hopped over on one foot and quickly put on her slipper before trying to walk away when she heard Qin Shaojin’s voice, "Planning to walk home?"
"..."
Wen Nuan kept walking.
Qin Shaojin said in a low voice, "I’ll count to five, and if you’re not in the car—"
Wen Nuan turned around and hurried over, pulled open the passenger door, got in, and seated herself, completing all actions in one fluid motion.
Qin Shaojin looked at Wen Nuan, "..."
Wen Nuan, sitting there, puffed her cheeks, "Where are you headed? If it’s on the way, can you drop me off at my brother-in-law’s?"
Qin Shaojin thought of the call he had just received from Brother Huo; there was a situation there, and he indeed needed to see Brother Huo. However, Wen Nuan should not be there, "I’ll drop you off first."
"You’re that kind-hearted?" Wen Nuan looked at Qin Shaojin, realizing she couldn’t take back her words as soon as they were out.
