Chapter 289
Chapter 289: Psychological Tactics
Li Ruobing frowned when she heard her father’s voice on the phone.
Li Maoren knew that Wu Chen had another girl and called her this morning. Obviously… it was Li Ruotai who said it!
Li Ruotai called him!
He should also have told him about Tang Xinbao. This was very important.
In fact, Li Ruobing didn’t care whether her father knew about Wu Chen’s relationship with other women. It didn’t matter to her personally. She hadn’t heard from her family in these years. She had the final say on what kind of man she wanted, so Li Ruobing didn’t tell her brother. So as to not spread the word.
But… he knew it too quickly!
Li Ruobing glanced at Wu Chen, not knowing what Wu Chen would say or how he would respond.
It was worth mentioning that Li Ruobing had a chat with Wu Chen before going to bed last night, and she gave a general idea about Li Ruotai’s question about Zhuang Xiaodie.
Therefore, Wu Chen could naturally think at this moment that it was Li Ruotai who told Li Maoren.
“Uncle is very well-informed,” Wu Chen said calmly.
“You don’t deny it?” Li Maoren said.
“There’s nothing to deny.” Wu Chen smiled.
“It seems you’ve been playing a lot. How many are there?” Li Maoren’s voice became more serious.
Li Ruobing felt a little nervous when she heard Li Maoren’s tone.
She never worried about how bad her relationship with her father would be, what attitude, conflict, or stiffness, it didn’t matter, because they were father and daughter, and they would eventually reconcile!
If they didn’t reconcile, they wouldn’t become enemies.
Wu Chen was different, he was an “outsider”.
If the two of them really conflict, it would be very troublesome. What’s even more troublesome was that Li Ruobing would be caught in the middle, and whatever she does might not be right.
Li Ruobing reached for the phone again, wanting to “explain” to Wu Chen, saying that she didn’t mind and asked her father to stay away from it.
But before the words came out, she paused.
Because she thought that her explanation was useful to Li Ruotai, but it was meaningless to her father!
From her father’s point of view, his “son-in-law” had another woman, and the key to the problem did not lie with her at all. Was this “son-in-law” still reliable?
This was especially important for a big family!
Even if they were married, he would still have this kind of doubt!
Not to mention, she, Li Ruobing and Wu Chen, were not married yet, but Wu Chen liked more than just Li Ruobing…
“It doesn’t matter how many.” Wu Chen smiled and said to the phone, “They are all women, uncle… That’s not what you care about, right?”
“What do you think of Bingbing…” Li Maoren wanted to ask something else, and his tone became more serious.
“Uncle, you don’t have to beat around the bush.” Wu Chen interrupted Li Maoren and said, “I will make arrangements for Tang Xinbao.”
The phone went silent.
Li Maoren seemed to have choked.
Actually not.
It was just that Wu Chen exposed his thoughts.
Li Ruobing didn’t understand for a moment. She raised her head and glanced at Wu Chen, then moved closer to the phone and listened. There was still no sound on the phone.
Li Maoren’s silence only lasted a few seconds.
“Hahahahahahaha…” Li Maoren’s loud laughter suddenly sounded on the phone, “You, hahaha…”
Li Maoren laughed and sighed again, as if he was about to look away. He said, “I’m old, and I can’t play with you young people anymore. Alas!”
“Uncle, if you have anything to say in the future, you can say it directly. We are on the same side.” Wu Chen said.
“Okay, okay, um…” Li Maoren said and pondered again, and then said, “I don’t care about that boy from the Tang family. You can handle it. If you need anything, you can mention it to A’tai and let him finish it.”
“Sure,” Wu Chen said.
“Okay… let’s do this for now.” Li Maoren said.
He hung up the phone.
Wu Chen checked the time on his cell phone and saw that it was just past eight-thirty. Calculating the time, he had only slept for a total of more than six hours. He could lie down for a while.
Ding Ruilong would go to Donghai this afternoon, and Wu Chen needed to recuperate.
Reaching back and putting the phone back on the cabinet, Wu Chen hugged Li Ruobing and moved downwards, then pulled the blanket, as if he wanted to continue sleeping.
“It’s over?” Li Ruobing finally couldn’t help but speak.
“Huh?” Wu Chen turned to look at Li Ruobing, who was close at hand, and smiled. “It’s over, what else?”
“That’s it?” Li Ruobing asked again, looking straight at Wu Chen.
She didn’t understand. From the moment Wu Chen hung up the phone, she couldn’t understand. Her father called and asked Wu Chen about other women. His tone was very serious, which made Li Ruobing a little nervous.
Then… there was no next, it jumped directly to Tang Xinbao’s matter, and nothing happened after that.
They didn’t even mention Wu Chen having other women.
Li Ruobing couldn’t understand at all. What was the reason for the change in her father’s attitude? He clearly cared, but suddenly he didn’t care?
And… what were they thinking?
“What do you want to ask?” Wu Chen smiled and raised his hand to pinch Li Ruobing’s face.
“Just… can you tell me what happened just now? Why…” Li Ruobing asked with a slight frown.
“Your father has never worried about you and me at all.” Wu Chen smiled.
“Don’t… worry… worry…” Li Ruobing drawled.
In fact, Li Ruobing also understood that for the children of a big family, having other women was not a big deal. She knew that her father had other women, and her mother also knew it. It was not a secret.
But…
“Then why did he ask you about this when he came up? And in that tone?” Li Ruobing thought about asking Wu Chen.
“Psychological tactics.” Wu Chen said.
“Psychological tactics?” Li Ruobing asked back.
“Yes!” Wu Chen looked at Li Ruobing with a smile, “Actually, he doesn’t doubt our feelings, but he still came… to question me! He wants me to explain or make a guarantee.” Wu Chen said for a moment.
“Then what?” Li Ruobing asked immediately.
“Then I have to perform well.” Wu Chen smiled and pinched Li Ruobing’s cheek again, “I have to prove how much I like you, so when it comes to Tang Xinbao, I have to do my best to prevent your brother from being implicated. I have to settle everything.”
Li Ruobing looked at Wu Chen and blinked before figuring out the logic.
Pretending to be angry and questioning? Prompt Wu Chen to perform well to prove that he was sincere? So that Wu Chen would work harder on Tang Xinbao’s matter? To protect A’tai?
But Wu Chen saw through it everything?!
“You seem to know my dad very well,” Li Ruobing said.
“Of course.” Wu Chen laughed.
“Then…” Li Ruobing’s voice suddenly stopped because she thought of a very crucial question!
Does father trust Wu Chen? Even after knowing that Wu Chen has other women, he still trusts him?
Wu Chen also knows that father trusts him?
Where does this trust come from?
“Did you… actually talk to my father on the phone in private?” Li Ruobing thought and asked Wu Chen with narrowed eyes.
“We had a call.” Wu Chen smiled.
“What have we talked about?” Li Ruobing asked again.
“A lot…” Wu Chen said without going into details.
Li Ruobing understood it, understood it completely. The reason why she couldn’t understand it before was not that she was not smart enough, but that she didn’t know what Wu Chen and Li Maoren had talked about!
What is the relationship between Wu Chen and father now?
Li Ruobing didn’t know the extent. Without this foundation, it would be impossible to figure it out.
I get it now.
After figuring out the logic, Li Ruobing didn’t bother to ask any more questions.
She put her arms around Wu Chen’s neck and kissed Wu Chen on the cheek. Then Li Ruobing laid down, closed her eyes and said, “Sleep a little longer.”
They continued to sleep.
About an hour later, it’s about nine o’clock in the morning…
Ding ding ding…
The cell phone ringtone rang again in the bedroom, and it was Wu Chen’s!
