I Have 10 Trillion Dollars only Usable For Simping Chapter 2778 - 1725: Can’t Tell What’s What... Can’t Tell What’s What...

Jiang Chen took a sip of coffee, quickly adjusted his mindset, and prepared to accept the outcome of the match.

At this moment.

He suddenly heard.

"I’ll discuss it with Chen Jiang."

"..."

"..."

"..."

The crow sure is tired.

Boss Jiang, who had already planned to order, froze with expression, the twists and turns?

"Who?"

Li Wanrong was suspicious.

Being urged to conceive in front of "outsiders" was already embarrassing enough, not to mention being described as an elderly pregnant woman.

It’s not about emotion management.

No woman can stay calm.

"How can I give birth alone?"

Apparently hanging around for so long, Pei Yunxi launched a counterattack.

Li Wanrong suddenly became unsettled, at a loss, and helplessly looked to her husband.

"Are you talking about your foreign boyfriend?"

Pei Linhan closed the thermos cup, took the baton; his words directed at the daughter, yet his eyes were on a certain silent guy.

Chen Jiang.

Bearing the indiscriminate strike from the teammate, Boss Jiang felt as though a bullet hit him right between the eyes.

He had almost forgotten about this.

But indeed, this fictional character was his creation.

"Yes."

"Thunk——"

Pei Linhan heavily placed the thermos cup on the coffee table, not to mention Boss Jiang, he almost forgot it too.

So, when his daughter suddenly brought it up, was it monkeying around?

"Do you think your mother and I are fools? You said your boyfriend works abroad, fine, we said nothing, suggested a video call just to see his face, not too much, right? But what did you do? Repeatedly dodged, then outright ignored, for so long, not a person, not even a voice, now you say you’re still with him?"

Old Pei had a face like water, it seemed he was really a bit irritated.

"Your mom and I haven’t lost our minds, right?"

As parents, being angry is understandable, but is the problem really with Pei Yunxi?

Who proposed this ludicrous idea?

And who initiated it and then didn’t care, didn’t ask?

Can’t really expect the representative to voluntarily play a real-life version of a virtual love game, can you?

"Don’t get excited."

Li Wanrong, who appeared less stable before, now comforted her husband, then said to her daughter: "Fine, whatever you say, your dad and I can accept. Now, make a video call to this Chen whatever, it’s probably daytime there, let us see him."

General.

The outcome lies in this.

"Call him."

Pei Yunxi said.

Aha?

Who is she talking to?

Though lacking a subject, it doesn’t matter; facing the couple’s focused gaze, Boss Jiang, who reaped what he sowed, felt pressured.

"I call?"

He turned, questioning.

"Who else."

Pei Yunxi replied: "He’s your friend."

This was the original line that Boss Jiang crafted.

One does the deed, one takes the fall?

Or the one who tied the knot needs to untie it?

In any case, certain someone has definite responsibility that can’t escape.

Alright.

The paper airplane thrown out now returns to his hand.

What to do?

Call or not call?

Actually, even though caught off guard, unprepared, he could still create something from nothing, finding an actor with some wit wouldn’t be difficult, like if not in the same time zone, he could totally call Luo Peng, even without rehearsal, surely Mr. Luo could catch on seamlessly, completing the act.

However...

Parents won’t play hard with their daughter, that doesn’t mean you, a stranger, can be reckless.

Doing so equals to playing them, even mocking, potentially insulting, the nature is very bad. If exposed, most likely his departure tonight would not be graceful.

The air is quiet.

Everyone waits for his decision, correction, to make the call.

"Pa."

In the end.

Comrade Jiang Chen didn’t make this call, not afraid of exposure; it’s after wallowing in time that he realized such a way offers no long-term solution, outweighs the benefits.

He chose to become a hero.

That’s right.

He raised his left hand, placed it on Pei Yunxi’s hand, then let go.

"..."

"..."

"..."

The air remains quiet.

"What are you doing?!"

Pei Yunxi was stunned, then struggled, trying to shake off the invader’s clutch, especially one daring to exploit her in front of parents.

But the other’s grip was very firm, fingers tightened, holding her hand, prohibiting escape.

"Jiang, what are you..."

Li Wanrong seemed caught off guard.

"Auntie, Uncle Pei, actually I’ve held some words in my heart for long."

Pei Linhan slightly squinted, calmly dealing, no slamming tables calling names; instead, he restored peace: "What words, tell us."

"Actually, I’ve always felt no man deserves Yun Xi, yes, that’s right, even last year before Uncle Pei went to East Sea, I thought so."

"Jiang, are you saying you like Duoduo?"

Li Wanrong asked tentatively.

"Yes, Auntie."

Jiang Chen answered very decisively, and seriously, firmly, "It’s just that I, as a person, am indecisive, prone to overthinking, so never dared to express, then came the news of Yun Xi dating someone else. Not fearing Uncle Pei and Auntie’s laughter, upon receiving such news I was heartbroken, feeling torn, in pain, regretting immeasurably..."

Li Wanrong was moved.

Pei Linhan remained silent.

Pei Yunxi was frozen.

"Since that day, I’ve lived each day in torment, thinking, why am I so weak to hand over the loved woman."

As a professional actor, Pei Yunxi hasn’t played many roles but not few either, yet now genuinely unable to follow the scene.

Turns out certain lines inside the drama and outside differ completely.

"Even while calling Uncle Pei I was still struggling..."

"Then why..." Li Wanrong couldn’t help asking, presumably reflective of her personality, actually she’s quite emotional, favoring melodramatic soap operas even into her era for such audiences.

"Because of that hat."

"Hat?"

Pei Linhan tilted his head, then picked up the woolly hat beside him.

"Yes, upon seeing this hat, I suddenly felt unparalleled fear..."

"Thinking Yun Xi and someone else..."

"So I awakened."

All loopholes were seamlessly patched, even explaining the anomalies perfectly.

This isn’t a master.

This is a grandmaster.

"I must consider, is tonight my only chance."

The opportunistic hand was gripped tightly, letting Pei Yunxi even feel the pain.

Coincidentally.

The pain stimulus also returned the wandering soul back to the body.

The face akin to a heavenly immortal initially turned red, then blue, gradually purple, finally red again.

Unable to escape the hand, but her mouth wasn’t covered.

"You’re bullshitting!"

Indeed.

The top star, national goddess could also utter foul language.

"Duoduo, what are you doing?! "

Li Wanrong frowned, showing a cold face.

Such heartfelt confession, so touching, she didn’t expect to witness such sincere affection even at this age.

"Quickly apologize to Jiang! All he did was liking you, is it wrong?"

"Mom!"

Presumably, Pei Yunxi felt for the first time the anguish of being unable to argue.

"Auntie, don’t blame Yun Xi, it’s me, loving too early, arriving too late."

"..."

"..."

"..."

"Shut up!"

Pei Yunxi urged!

"Shut up!"

Li Wanrong scolded, her eyes looking at Jiang Chen full of pity.

Being a man naturally more logical, Pei Linhan didn’t express opinion, while fiddling with the wool hat in hand, fingertips unwittingly rubbing it.

The opponent’s words surely contained sensational elements, yet young people pursuing love using sweet talk, very normal, he too did so in the past.

The key issue is.

He can’t comprehend the truth.

What is the truth?

He can’t comprehend, can’t comprehend—
