"Damn it, don't play dumb, you still owe me a hundred thousand nights of sleep." Ming Mei's voice on the other end escalated to a sharp pitch, filled with accusation and anger.
Upon hearing that, Kang Chen's face turned a bit red and he quickly covered his phone.
Huo Er saw his action and quietly lowered his head, 'Mr. Chen, it's useless, I heard it!'
Kang Chen moved his lips slightly. Many admonishing words came to his mouth, but the only one that came out was a completely non-threatening phrase: "Don't be so loud."
Ming Mei was in a bad mood. The more he asked her to lower her voice, the louder she shot back: "Hey, Kang Chen, what do you mean? Are you playing dumb with me? Are you planning to default on your debt?"
Kang Chen felt powerless, he felt like he had suddenly traveled back in time; when he and Ming Mei would constantly bicker, and she could bring someone to their knees with just a few words.
Kang Chen spoke softly: "Not at all! It's you…"
