Chapter 1651: Chapter 1651: Who Can Be Fooled

"Rou!" Jian Dan directly turned the phone to show Qin Rou the caller ID on the screen.

Seeing it, Qin Rou also looked troubled, shaking her head to show she was powerless.

Jian Dan took a deep breath, adjusted her emotions, and then pressed the answer button.

"Uncle!" Jian Dan smiled, trying to appear as usual.

"Not back yet?" The moment the call connected, Chu Liyuan noticed the environment around Jian Dan, frowning slightly.

"Oh! I was just about to send you a video, Uncle, but you called. We really are in sync! Haha!"

"Don’t change the subject!" Chu Liyuan’s expression darkened a shade.

"Uh! It’s like this; someone just notified us that the roads here are quite badly damaged, so it’ll take a few more days to repair!"

"Wait there, I’m coming to get you!"

"Hold on, Uncle!" Seeing Chu Liyuan about to hang up the video call, Jian Dan quickly called out, "Uncle, you’re coming to pick me up? It’s not good if I leave by myself with so many people in the crew!"

"Then I’ll pick everyone up together!" Chu Liyuan couldn’t wait any longer.

God knows how he got through these days. If he hadn’t promised Jian Jian, he would have flown over long ago. He had barely managed to wait for Jian Jian to return, only to run into this situation.

Do these things even matter in Chu Liyuan’s eyes?

He only knew that if he couldn’t see Jian Jian soon, he’d really go crazy.

"Uncle, I think it’s better not to be too ostentatious. Not many people in the crew know your identity. If you come over like this, it seems like you’re flaunting wealth intentionally, and that’s not good!

I think the roads should be open in a day or two. Uncle, how about you wait two more days?" Jian Dan spoke carefully.

After a moment of silence, Chu Liyuan said, "Okay!"

Okay? Uncle agreed?

"Jian Jian, I have to go to a meeting now."

"Oh! Then Uncle..." Before Jian Dan could finish, Chu Liyuan had already hung up the call.

"Hmm?" Jian Dan’s eyes were full of confusion. This was probably the first time since their marriage that Uncle hung up first.

"Did my uncle suspect anything?"

"Probably not!"

Just as Jian Dan’s call ended, Qin Rou’s phone rang again. Qin Rou used Jian Dan’s exact wording, but it was useless, as Zhong Tianhao saw through it with one sentence.

In the end, it was Zhong Tianhao who got the truth out of her.

Qin Rou, who had been hung up on, looked at Jian Dan with a miserable expression, "Jian, are you lying to me?"

"What?"

"I tried saying the same thing to Tianhao that you said to your uncle, but he wasn’t fooled at all!"

"How’s that possible? But Uncle really didn’t say anything, just ’okay’!"

"Jian, think about it! If Zhong Tianhao wasn’t fooled, how could my uncle be?"

"Then..." Jian Dan’s brow also slowly furrowed.

Meanwhile, after Chu Liyuan hung up the call.

"Chu Liyuan, find out immediately what exactly happened with Jian Jian. I need to know right away." The coldness in Chu Liyuan’s eyes gave off a distant, unapproachable aura.

Chu Liyuan shivered. He had forgotten how long it had been since he last saw such an expression in Chu Liyuan’s eyes.

He dared not delay even a moment.

With a cold face, Chu Liyuan was internally tumultuous, constantly churning. His mind was in an extremely tense state.

He was very clear in his heart that something must have happened with Jian Jian, something very serious. Otherwise, Jian Jian wouldn’t react like this.
