Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife novel Chapter 340

Chapter 340: Chapter 340: Cold Treatment

Qi Taiguo rushed home from the military, ascending the stairs to their apartment door. It was only then that he deliberately slowed his pace, straightened his face and thought, "I can’t let Cheng Su continue to be so capricious, I can’t let her think I’m without a temper and will always yield to her."

Standing at the kitchen entrance, he purposefully glanced around, no one was there.

Then, stepping inside the house, he announced loudly, "I’m back!"

Mother Qi was playing with Xiao Bao on the sofa, while Qi Fenglian was about to rinse rice to cook with the electric rice cooker, but Cheng Su was nowhere to be seen.

Qi Taiguo checked the guest room, then peered into their bedroom. Cheng Su was not there; not even a shadow, which made him frown.

"Stop looking, she hasn’t returned yet!" Qi Fenglian said, "Go check the restaurant, see if she’s there, at least bring her back, it’s almost dinnertime!"

Qi Taiguo stubbornly retorted, "She’s not a child, does she need to be picked up? She’ll naturally come back when it’s mealtime!"

Qi Fenglian shook her head, ignoring him, thinking one must taste the bitterness of loss to appreciate what they have.

While Qi Taiguo firmly believed Cheng Su would return by mealtime, it was seven o’clock in the evening, and she still hadn’t come back, his expression growing heavier.

"Stop waiting, let’s eat. She’s probably having dinner at the restaurant," said Qi Taiguo.

"I’ve been saying not to wait; it was you who wanted to. How could someone her age go hungry or thirsty?" Mother Qi said with a sneer.

Qi Fenglian quickly put a chicken leg in her bowl, trying to change the subject, "Mom, taste this chicken, is the flavor enough for you?"

Qi Taiguo’s expression was ugly.

Time ticked by. At nine in the evening Cheng Su had still not returned home, and Qi Taiguo began to feel restless. Qi Fenglian urged him again, "It’s getting late. Even if she could come back on her own, it’s not safe. Go and fetch her!"
