Chapter 68: Brother's Suspicions

Xue Ning choked on air at his easy declaration. 

"Husband and wife? That's pushing it," she argued. "We're not even dating. If anything, we're friendly roommates." Friendly, with a strange tension that seemed to creep up whenever she least expected it. 

"So cold, I guess we're on the verge of divorce already," Jingwei mused in mock sadness, even pretending to sob. 

Xue Ning shot him an unamused look. "Focus on the road before our lives get divorced from this earth," she said, before looking through her long-neglected handphone. 

She was greeted with an ominous 5% battery life, and many, many messages from her family members. Her mom called a whopping 30 times! Her dad, 10, but most likely because he was next to her mom. They also left over 50 messages. 

Even her brother and sister-in-law called her. Now she was worried. Did something terrible happen at home?

She hurriedly called before her phone could die on her.
