Xia Yanxin fell silent, then laughed at herself in self-deprecation. It seemed that it wasn't that he wasn't willing to answer her calls, but rather that she hadn't made a fuss. As a woman, she really was too docile and obedient. She never acted spoiled or made a scene in front of him, had no unreasonable demands, and added no trouble to his life, which is why he dared to put her aside and ignore her with such peace of mind.
She wanted to scold him, but suddenly changed her mind, "Dear, where are you right now?"
"I'm discussing business with some partners; these days have been really busy..."
"Oh, I understand. By the way, I'm in the United States. Do you have time to come pick me up?"
"Where exactly?"
"Of course, in Manhattan. I came to see how Shen Xiaoman is doing. You don't mind if I come back to Mandara Manor tonight, do you? By the way, you must come pick me up now. I don't want to run into Long Kaiwei or your father again—that would be troublesome!"
