From Su Manhan's reaction, he was certain that she was hiding something from him.
Su Manhan's heart suddenly skipped a beat as she touched her ear and realized that an earring was indeed missing!
It must have been lost while she was chasing after Qiao Jing—how could Qipei have found it?
At this point, Su Manhan also knew she couldn't keep things hidden any longer, swallowed hard, and continued to pretend she couldn't hear.
"What are you saying? I can't hear you, I'm playing cards and it's too noisy here, I can't hear you."
Su Manhan didn't give Zhan Qipei the chance to question her and hung up the call.
She didn't want to face her son because she knew he was very smart, and speaking further would certainly give her away.
But she also worried that Qiao Jing might take this opportunity to tattle to her son, which would definitely lead to another argument with her.
