Reborn in the 80s: Everyone Falls For Me-Chapter 704: (5 updates)

The call connected with a beep, and Baby Nian, still in Jin Yu’s arms, let out a cry and lunged forward, trying to grab the handset.

Jin Yu got the scare of his life and pulled him back by the collar of his shirt.

"If you don’t behave, I’ll throw you away."

Nanny Zhao was also terrified by Baby Nian’s action.

Reprimanded, Baby Nian looked up with watery, innocent eyes, snorted, turned his head, and showed Jin Yu the back of his round head.

But he was afraid of falling, so Little Pang’s hands held tightly onto Jin Yu’s arm.

Jin Yu let out a light laugh, and the call was answered on the other end.

"Hello, who’s this?" It was a rather arrogant voice.

Arrogant, yet with an air of self-importance.

Jin Yu pursed his lips, "Uncle Er, it’s me, Jin Yu!"

"Oh, Xiao Jin, what’s up, what do you need from Uncle Er?" Xu Erhong said cheerfully, a complete change of tone from moments before.

Jin Yu was somewhat amused; Xu Family’s Uncle Er was the fastest face-changer he’d ever seen.

"I’m looking for Niannian. Didn’t she go back to Nancheng? Have her call me."

Sitting with his legs crossed, Xu Erhong let out a sleazy laugh as he leaned over the phone on the desk, "Missing your wife, huh? Hehehe..."

Jin Yu: "..."

Clearing his throat and with his ears turning red, Jin Yu lifted Baby Nian in front of him and pinched him, causing Baby Nian to let out a "howl."

Jin Yu calmly said, "Baby Nian misses Niannian."

Baby Nian covered his bottom and glared, accusingly, He’s lying, he lied.

Xu Erhong heard Baby Nian’s voice and laughed even more joyously.

"Is that Baby Nian or Xiao Bao?"

Jin Yu: "Baby Nian."

"Are you on holiday?" Xu Erhong asked, his questions skipping around.

Jin Yu: "... Yeah."

Xu Erhong: "And Xiao Bao?"

Jin Yu: "Xiao Bao is at home. Uncle Er..."

"Are Baby Nian and Xiao Bao being good?" Xu Erhong asked another question.

Unable to hold back anymore, Jin Yu said, "Uncle Er, is Niannian there?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Erhong’s exaggerated laughter came over the phone, "Hahaha... You said Baby Nian misses Niannian, but I think it’s you who’s missing our Baby Nian, right?"

Xu Erhong seemed particularly sleazy and delighted to expose someone else’s thoughts.

Even the secretary outside the office, hearing his laughter, thought he was up to no good.

Jin Yu was initially embarrassed, since he always minded his manners in front of his elders.

But seeing Xu Erhong laughing so exaggeratedly, he stopped trying to hide it.

"Uncle Er, you’re making fun of me."

Xu Erhong: "No need to be polite!"

Jin Yu: "Uncle Er, can you ask Niannian to come and take the phone?"

Xu Erhong: "Niannian hasn’t come back."

Jin Yu: "..."

Why do my hands feel itchy?

"Didn’t Niannian go to Nancheng? How come she hasn’t returned?"

Not wanting to tease Jin Yu further, Xu Erhong explained, "There were some issues on the Hai City side, and Niannian went to take care of them. She hasn’t come back yet, but Zhiqiang did return. Maybe you should ask him?"

"No need."

Learning that Xu Niannian hadn’t returned to Nancheng, Jin Yu helplessly hung up the phone.

It was time to get off work, and Xu Erhong, wearing a flamboyant floral hat, swaggers home.

Seeing the vivacious girl at the entrance of the courtyard, Xu Erhong stopped in his tracks and took off his hat, "Yo, my great niece is back."

Xu Niannian was helping Yang Cuihua pick beans, white beans to be boiled into soup for Chen Xiaorou to drink.

Hearing Xu Erhong’s voice, Xu Niannian looked up, "Uncle Er?"

Seeing that flamboyant floral hat, Xu Niannian almost didn’t dare to call out the words "Uncle Er."
