Chapter 884 - 403
"Xu Haoyang, you get your ass back here right now, immediately, on the double." Just after class, Xu Haoyang, who was preparing to meet Xiao Shiyao, suddenly received a call from his mother. As soon as he answered the phone, before he could even speak, his mother’s roaring voice came through.
Xu Haoyang thought that this description of his mother was not an exaggeration at all.
He instinctively moved the phone away from his ear. Then, after waiting for his mother to finish her tirade, he brought the phone back to his ear.
"Mom, calm down, please don’t get worked up. Getting all worked up can lead to wrinkles."
"You little brat, shut your mouth." Mother Xu scolded him, yet she dared not roar again, conscious of her facial expressions. "Get back here pronto."
"But, Mom, is there something you can’t just say over the phone? I have plans with Yaoyao; we’re about to see a movie." If possible, Xu Haoyang really didn’t want to go back right now. With the state his mother was in at the moment, he feared he would be walking straight into the line of fire.
Hearing Xu Haoyang mention Xiao Shiyao, the temper Mother Xu had managed to subdue flared up again. It wasn’t that she had anything against Xiao Shiyao; quite the opposite, she was quite pleased with her. Such an outstanding girl, she couldn’t hope for a better daughter-in-law.
However, the thought of the invitation she had just received, which was like a hot potato sitting in her hands, made her want to grab her son by the ear if he were here right now. She wasn’t the ruthless type.
