Chapter 286 Apology
Xiao Hua was flamboyant, and flashy and loved to dress up. But other than that he also had a very bad attribute—— he was a petty miser. He was so stingy that asking him to spend money was similar to asking him for—- his kidneys and this was something that Shen Li knew very well so he immediately threatened Xiao Hua with money.
Xiao Hua who has raised his legs halfway up in the air, immediately paused and then looked at Shen Li who handed the bowl of soup to Fang Chi. He wanted to say that he wasn’t afraid of spending his money but then he carefully thought about it, the spatula was wooden and it has an exquisite detail that the spatula sold in the market didn’t have and even if they did, most probably they weren’t sold for a cheaper price, he didn’t want to waste his hard-earned on this wooden thing. So, he simply bent doubled and picked up the wooden spatula, and cleaned it up with his handkerchief. ” Here you go, now I won’t be buying it.”
Shen Li scoffed and turned to Fang Chi.” Hurry up and finish it, or else it will get cold.”
Fang Chi nodded as he took the bowl and started drinking the soup. The soup was neither too cold and or hot, it was just right, so Fang Chi didn’t have to blow on it and drank it right away in one gulp before putting the bowl back on the table in front of him. Once he was done drinking the soup, Chen Mi placed the bowl with strawberries in front of him. ” here eat this too, it is sweet and tastes really good.”
” Yeah you don’t want Yu Dong to kiss you when your mouth smells of chicken soup,” said Xiao Hua, as he once again hopped back to his cheerful side, Ye Liu who just returned with someone following behind him, heard Xiao Hau’s frivolous words and raised his hand before slapping the back of Xiao Hua’s head. Xiao Hua who was attacked from behind immediately howled in pain but when he turned around to scold the culprit his gaze met with Ye Liu’s warning one and he immediately quietened…so this was Yu Dong’s type huh? One was more ferocious than the other.
Ye Liu didn’t pay any attention to Xiao Hua instead he looked at Fang Chi who was on the way to eating one strawberry. ” Chi, someone is here to meet you.”
Fang Chi has just taken a bite of the strawberry and felt an explosion of sweet juice in his mouth. The thing called strawberry was really good, he had never eaten such a delicious fruit before, it was crispy and juicy as well as fresh, just one bite was enough to make Fang Chi roll his eyes in pleasure. But just as he was going to take another bite, he heard Ye Liu’s voice and stopped, putting down the strawberry in his hand, he looked at Ye Liu. ” someone came to visit me?” Who came to look for him? As far as he knew he had no friends in the village.
But Fang Chi didn’t have to wait for Ye Liu to answer his question, the figure behind Ye Liu walked inside the room, this person Fang Chi was very familiar with because the mer who came to visit him was none other than Chu Chang.
” Chu Chang? What are you doing here?” asked Fang Chi as he stared at Chu Chang’s solemn expression. Was he here to ask for forgiveness on Mu Yuxi’s behalf. Yu Dong did tell them that Mu Yuxi was taken away by the Yamen officers but she never mentioned that it was Chu Chang who filed the complaint, so it wasn’t surprising that Fang Chi thought that Chu Chang’s sudden arrival was all because of Mu Yuxi.
Chu Chang was not in any stupid belief that Fang Chi would welcome him either, the reason he came here was all because he wanted to clean his guilty conscience. He walked inside Fang Chi’s room and sat next to Shen Li. ” First of all, I would like to apologise to you, it’s my fault that something like this happened I should have paid more attention to her knowing that she was after you.”
Fang Chi stayed silent, he didn’t want to accept Chu Chang’s apology—— firstly, Chu Chang was not the one who wronged him and what was more there was nothing Chu Chang could have done in that scenario. So, he wasn’t willing to accept this apology and even if he did accept it, it would mean nothing since he can never forgive Mu Yuxi.
Chu Chang of course understood Fang Chi’s feelings, even though he couldn’t forgive Mu Yuxi and that too when he has been in love with her for years. He released a heavy sigh and then took out the property papers that he brought with him. ” I can’t do anything that will change what happened to you today, however, I would still like to apologise, this is the shop at the front of the marketplace, it belonged to Mu Yuxi but I was the one who paid for it and now that I have divorced her this property naturally came back to me.”
Chu Chang’s words were explosive, in just a few casual words he revealed a lot of information, one that they would have never believed in if they didn’t hear it from Chu Chang.
” you divorced her?” asked Chen Mi, as he cradled Little bun who was sitting in his lap.
” That’s right,” said Chu Chang with a dark, stinky face. ” I don’t need a wife who will stomp on my goodwill, it took me a lot of years to understand this but —— at least I learned something.”
