Chapter 596: Five hundred and ninety-one Ji Pianran’s inexplicable outburst

"Are there really such marvelous things in this world?" Gu Chen asked in apparent amazement.

"Of course, I heard about it in my textbook," Tang Tang said boastfully, as though she was deliberately showing off to Gu Chen.

Upon hearing this, Gu Chen sat down on the sofa and pulled out a remote control from the drawer.

After he gently pressed a few buttons on the remote control,

there was a ding!

Then, they saw the wall-mounted air conditioner on the TV start glowing.

"Daddy, what is this?" Tang Tang asked Gu Chen, puzzled.

Gu Chen couldn’t help but laugh and cry. "Isn’t this the air conditioner you’ve been longing for?"

"What! This is an air conditioner, and we actually have one in our house!" Tang Tang looked utterly shocked.

Gu Chen was momentarily at a loss for what to say to her.

This little girl spent her days thinking who-knows-what, not even knowing what was in her own house.

Broken Brow and the others laughed but didn’t speak.

After all, they were already used to Tang Tang’s quirky charm.

"Alright, go do your homework now," Gu Chen urged Tang Tang at this point.

Tang Tang cast a few lingering glances at the air conditioner before going to do her little assignment.

While she was working on her homework, Gu Chen suddenly remembered something.

Then, he turned to Broken Brow and the others and said,

"The bar will be ready to open in a little while, and then all of you can start work."

The renovation of the bar was almost complete.

The only thing remaining was hiring people. Once the staff was hired, they could start doing business right away.

Upon hearing this, they all exchanged glances,

then nodded in agreement with Gu Chen.

Ji Pianran heard that the bar was about to open for business,

and immediately came over curiously.

"How’s the decoration of the bar? Can I have a look?"

She seemed very curious about it.

Of course, Gu Chen had no objections.

"You can certainly go. If you can’t, who else could?" he said to her with a smile.

Ji Pianran nodded after hearing this, though her mind seemed to be elsewhere.

By the time Tang Tang finished her homework, Gu Chen had also finished preparing the meal.

Everyone gathered together, ready to eat!

While eating, Tang Tang said to Ji Pianran, "Mom, I want to go to sea."

Her sudden, out-of-the-blue statement surprised Ji Pianran.

Gu Chen also looked at Tang Tang at this time.

He couldn’t understand why the little girl suddenly wanted to go to sea. What was this all about?

"Why do you suddenly want to go to sea?" Ji Pianran asked Tang Tang.

Upon hearing this, Tang Tang quickly said, "I heard other kids are going to sea at this time. Can’t we do it too?"

She seemed to understand nothing, driven only by the fact that other kids were going to sea.

After hearing this, Gu Chen glanced at Ji Pianran, then said to Tang Tang, "What other kids can do, we can certainly do too.

Okay, then we’ll go to sea! But can we wait until Daddy is done with his busy period before we go?"

He said to Tang Tang with a smile.

Tang Tang was not in a hurry. She looked incredibly happy when Gu Chen agreed.

"Great, thank you, Daddy, I love you," Tang Tang said with a laugh.

Looking at Tangtang’s expression, it was genuinely adorable and funny.

Ji Pianran, seeing how readily Gu Chen agreed, could only helplessly sigh.

Gu Chen noticed the slight change in her emotions, so he asked her, "What’s wrong? Don’t you have the time?"

He even thought that perhaps Ji Pianran was too busy to go out to sea.

Ji Pianran shook her head and said to Tangtang, "Tangtang, you also can’t always want whatever other kids want."

Her sudden comment made Tangtang’s smiling face stiffen in an instant.

"Okay, Mommy, I understand, then we won’t go out to sea," Tangtang said, sounding a bit aggrieved.

Gu Chen glanced at Ji Pianran, not understanding why she would suddenly make such a statement.

It was somewhat strange, as this sentence clearly didn’t match Ji Pianran’s character.

In the past, Ji Pianran would always do her best to fulfill whatever Tangtang wanted.

But today, she suddenly started to discipline Tangtang, which was very abnormal.

"And you, can’t you have some opinions of your own, not just give her whatever she wants?"

It wasn’t over yet, as Ji Pianran suddenly turned and started speaking to Gu Chen.

After hearing this, Gu Chen was completely confused, not understanding how he had made a mistake.

Broken Brow and the other five kept their heads down, not getting involved in this domestic quarrel.

Instantly, the entire dining table fell silent.

Everyone stopped talking, as if silence had been injected into them.

At that moment, Ji Pianran let out a long sigh and said, "I’m finished eating, you guys continue."

After saying that, she put down her utensils and went back to her own room.

Watching her walk away, Gu Chen felt incredibly puzzled.

He didn’t know what was going on with Ji Pianran’s mood today.

But it was visibly off.

He glanced at Tangtang only to see her looking cautious, as if she didn’t know what she did wrong.

Gu Chen then softly said to Tangtang, "It’s okay, Mommy isn’t talking about you, she’s angry with Daddy. I’ll go and make up with Mommy, and then we’ll go out to sea next week."

He smiled as he said this to Tangtang, noticing her eyes were red, as if she was about to cry.

So he spoke to her in this way.

After Gu Chen said this, Tangtang’s face clearly brightened up a bit, but she still looked slightly aggrieved.

Gu Chen then looked towards Broken Brow and the others.

"Take Tangtang out for some fun later, will you?

As he spoke, he took out two thousand yuan from his wallet and suggested the seven of them go out and play."

They were very sensible and soon left the house with Tangtang.

Gu Chen then began cleaning up the leftovers on the table.

After everything was cleared, Gu Chen returned to the bedroom.

But just as he got to the door and was about to open it,

he was surprised to find that the door had been locked!

It was the first time he had been locked out.

"Wife? Your husband wants to come in, open the door for your husband," Gu Chen called out to her.

However, no reply from Ji Pianran came from the room.

"Wife, I’ve thrown my clothes and pants in the washing machine, if you don’t open the door now the neighbors might start to see," Gu Chen continued to speak.

Yet again, these words were effective; after he finished speaking, Ji Pianran opened the door.

Seeing the door open, Gu Chen quickly slipped in.

Once inside, Gu Chen stepped forward and locked the door behind him.

He then asked Ji Pianran, "What’s really going on today?"

"Is it something at work that’s upsetting you?"
