Chapter 2250: Chapter 2252: Gu Linxi vs. Cui Jiangjing

After parting ways with Gu Linxi, he went straight home, changed clothes, put the T-shirt he took off into a paper bag, took a shower, and went downstairs wearing slippers.

“Mom, I’m leaving now.”

Lin Ning was arranging for the servant to cook. Hearing this, she walked out of the kitchen, looked at him in surprise, and asked, “You’re not staying for dinner?”

Cui Jiangjing passed through the living room, hugged her down, and explained with a smile in his peach blossom eyes, “I already had dinner with your daughter-in-law.”

Lin Ning, “…”

“I got my clothes dirty and home was closer, so I came to change. Mom, you eat first, don’t worry about me, I’m planning to leave now.”

Lin Ning couldn’t hide her disappointment. She held his arm, trying to keep him, “Jiangjing, it’s been a while since we ate together, can’t you stay for dinner tonight?”

Cui Jiangjing paused, gently pulled her hand away, and comforted her softly, “Another day. I’ll call you when I’m free another day, but let’s forget about tonight.”

Lin Ning opened her mouth, but hesitated to speak.

Cui Jiangjing already picked up the paper bag containing the T-shirt Gu Linxi gave him, ready to leave.

As he passed by the living room sofa, the man sitting on the sofa with a stern face, who hadn’t made a sound, directed his restrained gaze at him and sternly called him, “You come home and then leave immediately, what do you take this family for? Some hotel where you come and go as you please?!”

Lin Ning sensed the tension in the air and quickly stepped over. She pulled him and chided, “What are you doing, your son rarely comes home and you choose to argue with him? He already had dinner, can’t the two of us eat together? You’re an adult, do you still need your son to accompany you for meals?”

“I’m not asking him to accompany me for meals; look at his attitude, he doesn’t greet anyone when he’s back, just takes a shower and leaves. What does he take this home for?” Cui Hao’s anger fumed over his head, and his forehead veins pulsed as he spoke sharply, clearly not lightly angered.

Cui Jiangjing stopped in his tracks. He had changed from the T-shirt Gu Linxi gave him to a simple camel coat, with a short-sleeved shirt underneath, his demeanor lazy yet elegant, with a face full of indifference that was enough to provoke Cui Hao, who was already on the brink of anger.

He dared to ask Cui Hao, “Anything you need?”

“You…!” Cui Hao was indeed infuriated, banging on the table and glaring in rage, “Can’t I call you for no reason? You brat! You just don’t want to stay home and see me. Let me tell you, however much you dislike me, you still have half of my blood in you; I will always be your father! Even in death, this fact can’t be changed!”

“Husband, say less, don’t hurt your son’s feelings.”

Lin Ning tried her best to soothe him, giving Cui Jiangjing a look to ask him to wait a moment while comforting Cui Hao and gently reassuring Cui Jiangjing, “Jiangjing, don’t take it to heart, he’s just been upset about work lately. You leave first, I’ll call when I have time another day, and we’ll have a meal together.”

Cui Jiangjing glanced at the furious Cui Hao, paused, gave a soft acknowledgment, and turned to leave.

“Stop!” Cui Hao called to him again.

Lin Ning feared the father and son would start arguing again. Seeing she couldn’t hold him, she scolded him with some hidden anger, “Enough, do you truly want your son never to enter this door again?”

Cui Hao was inexplicably cursed thoroughly, feeling a bit aggrieved and depressed as he looked at her, “I didn’t say I wanted to keep arguing with him.”
