"Who allowed you to answer my call!"
A harsh blamful voice rang above Zhou Ziqing's head, and at the same time, an arm reached out to her, snatching over the phone.
Zhou Ziqing nervously looked at him. "The call was coming in, and since it was the child calling, I picked it up fearing something was urgent!"
Qin Muchuan subtly raised an eyebrow, accepting her explanation. "In the future, don't answer my calls so casually!"
"OK, got it!" Zhou Ziqing exclaimed pitifully and added in a particularly considerate tone, "Then you should call the child back quickly, the child really seems to have something to tell you!"
Qin Muchuan gave her a smile. His large palm fell on her shoulder and squeezed lightly.
An intimate gesture came so naturally, that it drew a laugh from Zhou Ziqing, who leant happily on his shoulder.
Qin Muchuan neither resisted her nor pushed her away, just allowing her to lean against him.
He returned the call to the child. "Tongtong!"
