Lin Jiage: "Mr. Xia, what are you talking about? Why would I be angry? "
Xia Shangzhou: "Daddy, I beg of you to stop talking. I'll confess, I'll confess everything. I didn't have any socks to wear this afternoon, so I took a pair from your drawer. I'll buy you a new pair later, no no no, I'll buy ten pairs … Also, when I was washing my hands yesterday, I accidentally used the wrong towel. I know that you're a germaphobe, so I'll buy you a new towel too … There shouldn't be anything else …"
Lin Jiage: "Mr. Xia …"
Xia Shangzhou: "No no no, let me think. Also, I didn't have any tissues to use that day, so I took a packet of tissues from your drawer … I really don't have any left this time. I guarantee that I really don't have any …"
Before Xia Shangzhou could finish his words, Lin Jiage had already pressed the 'Off' button on his phone, forcefully shutting it off. Then, pretending that his phone had run out of battery, he frantically pressed the 'Home' button and said, "Ah, I'm sorry, but I have some urgent matters to attend to at work, and my phone has run out of battery. Can I borrow your phone for a moment?"
Without the slightest doubt, Shi Yao passed her phone over to Lin Jiage without any hesitation.
Lin Jiage didn't take it. Instead, he glanced at the black phone screen.
Shi Yao was stunned for a moment before understanding Lin Jiage's intentions. She quickly unlocked the screen.
Only then did Lin Jiage thank her before taking the phone. After which, he dialed Xia Shangzhou's number once more. "Mr. Xia, I'm sorry, but my phone ran out of battery earlier. Please continue what you were saying earlier …"
"B-B-B-B-Boss?" Xia Shangzhou stuttered on the phone for a moment before he finally spoke up with a tearful voice, "I've confessed everything, I've really confessed everything. Boss, I lied to you, I'm your son …"
"Boss, I admit that I've made a mistake, but Lu Benlai, that grandson of mine, has done much worse than me. Boss, do you know? He didn't wash his feet for the past two days, so in order to get his hands on the Mai Dong, he stepped on your bed to get it. I saw him stepping on your pillow with my own eyes … Also, boss, you said that we have to drink at least three bottles of Mai Dong every day, and I followed your instructions. However, Lu Benlai didn't. He secretly flushed the Mai Dong down the toilet … Also, boss, in order to show off, Lu Benlai even took a selfie with your laptop, saying that it was his new laptop … "
While Xia Shangzhou was rambling on and on, Shi Yao's phone suddenly sounded with a low battery warning tone.
Lin Jiage glanced at Shi Yao's screen and saw that the battery was already at less than 1%.
He didn't immediately return the phone to Shi Yao. Instead, he placed it by his ear and said politely, "Mr. Xia, I've taken down your words. I'll consider your opinion carefully and give you a reply when the time comes …"
"Boss, I'll do whatever you want me to do. Please don't write it down and don't give me a reply …"
Amidst Xia Shangzhou's anguished wails, Lin Jiage unhesitatingly hung up the call and passed the phone back to Shi Yao.
