Chapter 1478

Qiao Mu picked up Li Yan’s call and concealed the excitement in her heart. Her tone was lazy as if she had just woken up. “”Uncle, why are you calling me so late?”

The corners of Li Yan’s lips curled up when he heard Qiao Mu’s words. However, when he called her earlier, he was clearly on the phone. It was obvious that someone had wished her a happy birthday before he did, yet she pretended to have just woken up.

It seemed like she was sulking at him.

“Are you asleep?” Li Yan did not expose her.

Qiao Mu hummed in acknowledgment. Hearing Li Yan’s calm tone, her heart sank bit by bit. She then asked, “”Uncle, what’s the matter?”

“Nothing. I missed you. You went to bed so early?” Li Yan could imagine how angry Qiao Mu was when he said that. She thought he was here to wish her a happy birthday, but he actually said something unimportant!

...

Although his little woman was very magnanimous, she was only narrow-minded towards others. She was probably cursing him in her heart now.

Li Yan was the one who understood Qiao Mu the most.

Qiao Mu’s heart turned cold, and her tone immediately lowered. ” It’s already past midnight. It’s getting late! ”

“Is that so? I didn’t pay attention to the time in China.” Li Yan laughed, and in Qiao Mu’s ears, his laughter was extremely annoying.

How could he be like this! She had thought that he would really surprise her like Chi Xia had said. He did not even give her a phone call to wish her well, let alone a surprise.

Since he didn’t remember, Qiao Mu naturally wouldn’t point it out. She just wanted to see how guilty he would look when he forgot her birthday!

He felt so guilty!

Qiao Mu grunted and bluntly said, ” I’m tired and I’m going to continue sleeping. You go ahead with your work. I won’t disturb you anymore! ”

Initially, she had hung up in a fit of pique. She thought that Li Yan would try to persuade her to stay and not let her hang up. However, Li Yan’s reaction was once again beyond her expectations. He immediately said, ” Okay. ”

Good?

He just let her hang up the phone like that?

Alright then!@@novelbin@@

Qiao Mu was so angry that she hung up the phone without even saying goodbye.

Her 20th birthday, which she had been looking forward to, was gone just like that!

Qiao Mu felt as wronged as she could. This man was simply too unreliable. She had only been with him for two years, yet he didn’t value her so much!

She had not even married yet. If she did, how miserable would her status be?

Qiao Mu thought indignantly. She still had a glimmer of hope as she waited for Li Yan to call back. Unfortunately, she was thinking too much.

After that, Qiao Mu fell asleep with resentment in her heart.

Before she fell asleep, Qiao Mu was still thinking that she would definitely settle the score with Li Yan when he returned!

Half an hour later, a car drove into the Li family’s courtyard.

Li Yan got out of the car and quickly entered the house. He did not stop and went straight upstairs.

Along the way, he thought of the little woman’s angry look and couldn’t help but want to laugh. Perhaps she was so angry that she couldn’t sleep. If she saw him, she would probably be overjoyed.

Just as he was thinking about it, Li Yan pushed open the bedroom door and saw darkness. He could vaguely see the outline of the bed. She was completely asleep.

Li Yan felt a little helpless. This woman was really big-hearted. How could she sleep like this?

Qiao Mu was still in a daze when she felt a firm chest pressing against her back, and her body was wrapped in a warm embrace. This feeling was extremely similar to Li Yan being by her side, making her think that she was dreaming.
