Chapter 3775 You Don“t Expect to Pay Back the Money You Borrowed 5
“Honey, I’m starving…”Gao Ran entered the room and took off his uniform while yelling that he was hungry.
Usually, Zhu Lingling would get up from the bed and make him noodles or wontons even if she had turned in.
But today…
“Honey?”
Receiving no response, Gao Ran walked into their bedroom curiously.
He saw Zhu Lingling lay in bed with her cellphone in her hands; she was expressionless.
Beside her, Gao Boyuan was playing on the iPad.
The mother and son played on their respective devices silently.
“Why didn’t you answer me?” Gao Ran asked with a chuckle.
Still, no one responded.
“Honey, I’m starving. I haven’t eaten since lunch.”
Gao Ran complained and hoped his wife would get up and make some food for him.
“Really? Then you can starve to death,” Zhu Lingling said coldly.
Gao Ran: “…”
“Honey, what’s wrong? You sound unhappy today.”
“I’ve been unhappy for days and you didn’t notice?” Zhu Lingling glared at him.
“Are you having your period? No… It comes around the 15th each month, right?” Gao Ran scratched his head.
“Get out…”
Zhu Lingling couldn’t bear the sight of him.
“Son, tell me what happened?”
Gao Ran turned to his son hopefully.
But Boyuan hid under the covering.
“I know nothing. I know nothing.”
Gao Ran: “…”
“Honey, come here. Let’s talk.”
Gao Ran felt it was time to talk to his wife.
For days, she had been sulky. She didn’t reply to his WeChat messages during the day; he had thought she was busy, but now it seemed he had been wrong.
“Fine, let’s talk.”
Putting down her cellphone, Zhu Lingling walked into the living room.
Gao Ran sat next to her and leaned over. “Honey…”
“Stay away from me and don’t touch me; we can only talk…”
Zhu Lingling was ferocious.
“Honey, what’s wrong with you?”
“I’m unhappy.”
“With what?”
“With you.”
“Why are you unhappy with me? Because I worked too hard and neglected you? Don’t be angry. After I finish this case, I’ll take a few days off and take you and Boyuan to Disneyland, okay?”
“Did you do something you’re guilty about, Gao Ran? Why are you so good to us all of a sudden? Boyuan has been wanting to go to Disneyland for two months now, but you never agreed to his request.”
Zhu Lingling stared at Gao Ran sternly.
“I’m not guilty. That’s ridiculous… I’ve been overwhelmed by work lately. It turned out that Mian wanted me to investigate someone, so…”
“Don’t use Mian as your excuse. You’re only a bureau chief, but you’re quite high profiled driving a Land Rover… People would think you’re corrupt.”
“Nonsense. All my money comes from my salary…”
“Give the Land Rover to me tomorrow,” Zhu Lingling issued the order.
“No problem. Honey, I’ll drive your Q5.”
“In your dreams. To help protect the environment, I bought you an electric car. You drive it from tomorrow on. It’s in the garage now…”
“You bought an electric car?” Gao Ran was dumbfounded.
“Yes.”
“What’s the brand?”
“BYD,” Zhu Lingling crossed her leg and said matter-of-factly.
Gao Ran: “…”
“Honey, um, did I do something wrong lately…?” Gao Ran knew something was wrong, or she wouldn’t have confiscated his Land Rover and changed it into a BYD.
