Old Madam Long responded to his words, saying, "In that case, let’s do as you say."
Dragon Mother sighed with relief. Not having to suffer physical punishnt and not getting divorced or thrown out of the Long Family were, for her, the best outcos. However, Father Long was particularly displeased.
Being confined to the house without being allowed to step outside, wasn’t that the sa as being in prison?
But at this mont, even though he was Long Yubei’s father, he felt both respect and fear towards his son.
After he and Dragon Mother sat back down on the sofa, Old Madam Long couldn’t help but praise Long Fengxi, "Feng Xi, you handled this matter well. You didn’t protect your mother, and your grandmother is relieved that you weren’t confused. In our family, we should lay things out in the open; hiding the truth from those above or below is the real disaster. Feng Xi, how did you discover this about your mother?"
Long Fengxi knew her grandmother would ask this, so she had prepared an answer in her heart. Thus, she said, "I had a few drinks at the bar near that hotel last night and decided to stay there for the night. In the morning, I saw it in the elevator."
Old Madam Long nodded, "Since you were children, I have repeatedly told you, whoever you marry is fine as long as you’re willing. Even if we elders are not satisfied, we’ll still consider your decision. But I have one requirent: whoever you’re with, you must abide by the contract of marriage. Infidelity within a marriage is absolutely not allowed. If you can’t even be loyal to your own spouse, life isn’t worth living."
"You’re right, Grandmother," Long Tianjiao supported, "My sister, my brother and I will definitely adhere to this. We absolutely can’t be like our parents."
Father Long’s phone rang at this mont, and Old Madam Long asked, "Who is it?"
"It’s a friend..."
"Let see."
Father Long handed it to her. It was He iwei calling, but he had saved He iwei’s na under the na of a friend he knew.
So it was harmless for Old Madam Long to look at it.
However, Old Madam Long didn’t play by the usual playbook, unexpectedly answered the call, and even put it on speakerphone.
Father Long was extrely tense.
"Darling, will you co over tonight?"
As soon as the voice ca out, Long Yubei was speechless. Old Madam Long handed the phone to Father Long, signaling with her eyes that he should answer.
"No, I won’t be coming. I can’t make it today."
"How about tomorrow then? I’ll make you sothing delicious."
Father Long hung up the phone directly.
"Why does that voice sound so familiar?" Old Madam Long frowned.
"Grandmother, it’s He iwei," Long Yubei correctly identified the caller.
"What?!" Old Madam Long was so angry she could almost cough up blood. She picked up her walking stick and fiercely struck Father Long, "You still have ties with that shaless woman?!"
"She ca back to find ," Father Long defended.
"She ca looking for you? Would it end up this ssy if you hadn’t gone after her?! How much money have you given her this ti!"
"I bought her a two-bedroom apartnt at the Jianing High-end District for six million yuan..."
"You really are..." Old Madam Long snorted coldly, "Last ti I let her off, and she dares co back now. She really has no sha. This ti, I won’t let her off no matter what!"
"Mom, I was at fault too. Let’s just let it be," Father Long did not want He iwei to suffer for this any longer.
"Let it be? How generous of you. Spending the Long Family’s money on her. I’m going to make sure she learns what it costs to be that kind of woman, losing everything!"
With that said, Old Madam Long called for the housekeeper, "Go to the Jianing District and bring He iwei here."
Once the order was given, nothing Father Long said mattered anymore.
He iwei had carefully planned many things, but what she hadn’t anticipated was being caught and brought back to the Long Family so soon.
