Chapter 1409: Chapter 1409: Can You Not Answer the Phone?
“Hahaha~ What makes you think you can be one of my people?”
“Why can’t I? Am I not better at fighting than those four behind you? Plus, I’m smarter than them, aren’t I? There are so things they don’t even understand. If they can do it, why can’t I?”
“Those four are sufficiently loyal.”
“I can be too!” The wise do not pick fights they cannot win, and bending a little without damage to one’s dignity is okay. “And there’s another very important point—my husband is incredibly wealthy, so you won’t even have to keep thieving in the future, how great is that!”
“Wealthy? How wealthy exactly? Nowadays, there are a lot of people with money, even those with hundreds of thousands in their bank accounts call themselves wealthy.”
“No, no, no, I’m different from them. My Uncle is Chu Liyuan, have you heard of Chu Liyuan?”
“What? What did you say your husband’s na is?” The woman suddenly beca extrely agitated upon hearing the na and reached out to choke Jian Dan’s neck. “Speak up, who did you just ntion?”
The woman kept pressing Jian Dan for an answer.
Jian Dan struggled to lift a hand and pointed at the hand on her neck.
Only then did the woman realize and let go of her hand.
“Speak! Who is your husband?”
Jian Dan, with a hand on her neck, looked up into the woman’s eyes.
From the woman’s reaction just now, it was clear she knew Uncle, and there was likely bad blood between them. So in such a situation, how could Jian Dan possibly tell her the truth?
“I just said Zhu Liyuan! Why, do you know him?” Jian Dan casually made up a similar-sounding na.
“No, that’s not the na you ntioned just now.”
“That’s the na I said! Maybe you just didn’t hear it clearly?”
“Impossible, I clearly heard you say…” The woman’s brows furrowed.
“You definitely heard it wrong!”
“Heard it wrong?”
“No way~ I definitely didn’t hear it wrong!”
“It doesn’t matter if she’s being stubborn, Boss. Since he’s her husband, his contact must be in her phone.” A man whispered to the woman’s ear.
Jian Dan’s eyes widened in disbelief at the man’s sudden insight at such a critical mont.
The man crouched down and fished out the phone from Jian Dan’s pocket and handed it to the woman.
“What’s the passcode?” the woman asked Jian Dan coldly.
Jian Dan turned her head away.
“Not talking? Fine! Let’s see how tough you are. Beat her until she talks.”
“There’s no need for that, Boss. Nowadays, phones are unlocked with either fingerprints or facial recognition; you just need to…” the man already placed the phone in front of Jian Dan as he spoke.
Before Jian Dan could react, the phone had already unlocked automatically.
At that mont, Jian Dan swore that once she got out of here, she would never use facial recognition to unlock her phone again.
The woman took the phone and imdiately opened the contact list. “How co there’s no ‘Husband’?” the woman muttered while browsing through.
Jian Dan was initially relieved that she hadn’t saved Uncle as ‘Husband’! But the next second~
“Boss, she just ntioned ‘Uncle’, see if there’s ‘Uncle’ in there?”
Jian Dan looked at the man in disbelief again.
What’s with this sudden burst of intelligence?
“Got it~”
“Wait a minute, think about it. How could I possibly call my own husband ‘Uncle’? Right? He’s really just my uncle.”
“Do you think I would believe you? Your current behavior has already betrayed you.
Plus, that person’s age is there; it’s not impossible for you to call him Uncle.”
She said and was already dialing the call…
Since it was so quiet, Jian Dan could hear the dial tone from the phone, praying that Uncle was either too busy to hear or that his phone was out of power, unable to receive the call.
The dial tone echoed, each one tugging at her heartstrings.
Just when Jian Dan thought a miracle was happening, a familiar voice ca through the phone…
