Chapter 644: Chapter 644: Does Your Hand Hurt? (4)

"Thank you." Qin Jiran was sincerely grateful; Corey’s words were really music to his ears. However, his temperament was still somewhat different from Yanyi’s, and he knew he had to continue working hard.

"..." Corey was truly at a loss for words this time! Was he actually thanking him? As if he was giving a compliment, how shameless! He was just as annoying as Su Yanyi!

"Is that all? Then I’m going to hang up." Seeing Corey didn’t respond, Qin Jiran wanted to end the call. His vacation time was already limited, and he didn’t want to waste it on the phone.

"Wait a minute, I still have something to say." Corey panicked. How could Qin Jiran really pick up the same bad habit from Su Yanyi, ready to hang up before the conversation was finished? It was extremely impolite!

"Speak!" If there was something to say, say it. There’s no need for a long-winded waste of time.

"The Warrens family is hosting a banquet tonight and cordially invites both of you to bring the babies along. Yanyi is with me here, and it’s only proper to welcome and entertain her. Surely you won’t refuse to give face!" Corey extended the invitation with a tone that implied a refusal would be a great loss of face.

"I don’t call the shots on this, I’ll ask Yanyi." Hearing Corey’s words, Qin Jiran felt even more that Corey wasn’t too bright. If he wanted to ask about this matter, he should naturally call Yanyi instead. Why call him? He wasn’t in a position to decide!

Of course, what Qin Jiran disliked even more about Corey was that, knowing that he had only three days of vacation, he still invited them to a banquet. He just wanted to spend a quiet time with his wife and children. The last thing he wanted was to attend a banquet!

"Can’t you show some backbone? You are a man; you can’t listen to a woman in everything. Else you stand to lose your status in the family and become a laughingstock," Corey said, clearly trying to provoke him. Qin Jiran didn’t appreciate this on his end of the phone, replying with a sense of justification: "This is respect, which you wouldn’t understand. It’s your problem for not even being able to find a wife."

"People who are afraid of their wives always say that. It’s just an excuse. And who said I can’t find a wife? I’m not looking, that’s all. I’m so bothered by the throng of women constantly circling around me," Corey asserted, convinced he wouldn’t fall for such a poor excuse, let alone be provoked by such underhanded tactics. He was a handsome, single aristocrat not ready to marry yet. He’s not as foolish as Qin Jiran, bringing a Queen home to wait on, hmph!

Corey assured himself he was absolutely not envious of Qin Jiran’s family of four. A wife and children— if he wanted, he could certainly find them!

"Then I’ll show some backbone; Yanyi and I are busy, and we won’t attend the banquet." Qin Jiran felt Corey was becoming increasingly fussy, though he had ways to deal with him.

"No, I was just kidding. You two must come. My father really wants to meet the babies," Corey quickly became anxious, feeling bullied once again.

"I’ll ask Yanyi," said Qin Jiran, and then he hung up the phone.

In the end, Su Yanyi agreed, not because she was giving Corey face, but because of Corey’s father. The two families had many years of relations and were old friends. Corey’s father was also her elder; if he wanted to see the children, she naturally wouldn’t refuse. Thus, their schedule for the evening was set—they were preparing to attend the banquet hosted by the Warrens family.

Regarding the children’s attire, mother Yanyi wasn’t too particular, but Mother Su, the grandmother, took it very seriously. Knowing that the baby would be going on a trip abroad, she had already prepared several outfits. Moreover, she thoughtfully prepared three sets of family outfits for the four of them: casual wear, home wear, and even formal wear—almost as if she had a premonition.
