Chapter 163 Warning

"I didn't want to call you either!" Zhong Nianyao's voice carried a hint of helplessness, "Sadly, your people have drawn my ire. I thought I should let you know, to avoid being accused of not giving you face."

"My people?"

Though there was no change in his voice, Zhong Nianyao could still detect a faint hint of anger, "What exactly are you talking about? Who?"

Zhong Nianyao thought she must have heard wrong, and she still teased with a smile, "Who else could it be! It's your mother! But she really is quite stingy, huh! I actually thought she'd give me a huge check like in the TV dramas! I never expected that as the Old Madam Lu of the Lu Family, she'd be so petty."

She was certain she had heard wrong; how could Lu Yichen be angry about something like this! Especially over a phone call; she must be too sensitive.

On the other end of the phone, Lu Yichen chuckled, "Then you really have suffered a loss, do you need me to compensate you with a blank check?"
