Chapter 19: Accepting Apologies
Proofread by He Li
“Jue, I’m here to apologize, don’t drive me away.”
With tears in her eyes, her voice trembles slightly.
Yuexi pokes her head out of the quilt, and her feeling is mixed. When she sees Xu Ziqi, she feels even more guilty.
Although Yuexi was forced to rob her boyfriend, Xu Ziqi was innocent.
She can see that, Xu Ziqi really likes Li Fengjue.
Li Fengjue gives her a cold look and does not speak again. Uncle Li feels the strange atmosphere, so he quickly closes the door and leaves.
Xu Ziqi steps forward slowly, stopping in front of the bed. With red eyes, she says in an injured tone, “Miss Bai, I apologize for my brother. He is too impulsive. But he is actually very good and never thought about hurting you.”
Although Yuexi doesn’t know what kind of person Xu Ziqi’s brother is, Xu Ziqi looks so pitiful, which makes her more guilty. She even thinks that she should be the one who apologizes.
Sitting up fiercely, Yuexi opens her mouth, readying to speak.Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
But Li Fengjue takes the grapes from the fruit plate and stuffs them into her mouth.
“We have already got the marriage certificate. Now ‘Miss Bai’ is my wife. Please call her Mrs. Li from now on.”
Yuexi nearly strangles herself with a grape, staring at Li Fengjue with wide-open eyes.
How can he change it into Mrs. Li? Does she agree?
Xu Ziqi is also astonished, with her eyes widened slightly, and the next moment her feeling is replaced by disappointment. She presses her head very low, and her eyes become dimmer and dimmer.
“Yes, Mrs. Li.”
Hearing this title, Li Fengjue nods with satisfaction, and says coldly, “This apology, I accept it for her, you can go now.”
Xu Ziqi raises her head, frowns slightly, and says quickly, “I want to see Bai… Mrs. Li get better before I can leave in peace. Please, let me stay and take care of her!”
Li Feng always speaks relentlessly, so she turns her eyes on Yuexi.
“Mrs. Li, please, let me stay and take care of you, I just want to make up for the mistakes I have made!”
Without saying a word, she is stuffed with another grape in her mouth.
She glances up at Li Fengjue.
He whispers. “Do you think my wife lacks servants?”
The two of them keep talking one by one. Yuexi couldn’t get in, let alone that she doesn’t want Xu Ziqi to stay.
Coupled with Li Fengjue’s gaze which can kill people, she quickly shuts up, turns over and hides in the quilt again.
After all, this is their matter, so she doesn’t want to mess with it and be treated as cannon fodder.
Seeing Yuexi’s movement, Xu Ziqi trembles at the bottom of her heart, and turns her head to beg Li Fengjue again.
Originally she thinks that Li Fengjue would not agree, but it is not expected that under her both hard and soft tactics, he finally agrees.
“Since you want to be a servant so much, I have nothing to say. My wife is hungry. She needs to eat something light. You can buy some for her.
Even though the sound is extremely cold, it seems to be so beautiful in Xu Ziqi’s ears.
She nods and nods, and happily agrees, “Okay, I’ll get something for her right away.”
After saying this, she runs away so quickly.
The door closes gently, and Yuexi leans out her head and looks at Li Fengjue with no expression.
“You really let her stay?”
“I can’t kick her out.”
After all, they two have known each other for a long time, and with Xu Ziqi’s deliberately miserable look, Li Fengjue will certainly soften his heart. Yuexi does not expect the man in front of her to care about her thoughts.
It wouldn’t matter if Xu Ziqi stayed, but Yuexi would feel uncomfortable if Xu Ziqi provokes her brother back.
As soon as she thinks of what happened yesterday, her scalp becomes numb.
She doesn’t want to go through it a second time.
Looking at the woman’s unpredictable expression, Li Fengjue’s narrow eyes are raised slightly like a savvy fox. What’s he planning right now?
“How can a person easily give up without experiencing despair?”
She looks at him puzzled, and then she instantly understands.
Li Fengjue wants Xu Ziqi to leave first, so he is now using her with the same view to marrying her.
Thinking of this, Yuexi feels chilly, “Mr. Li is really merciless.”
Li Fengjue gives her a slight glance and tickles his lips.
“The process is not important, as long as the result is what I want.”
Li Fengjue is a dangerous man. Yuexi knows this very well. She is very tired now, rolls over and soon falls asleep.
When she wakes up again, she sees a pink figure sitting next to the bed.
Yuexi feels cool and comfortable on her forehead, and she is relaxed a lot.
When she opens her eyes, she sees Xu Ziqi carefully wiping her cheek.
Yuexi quickly sits up straight and says apologetically, “In fact, you don’t need to say sorry to me, it has nothing to do with you.”
Xu Ziqi’s hands holding the towel are stiff in the air, and she bites her lower lip and lowers her head.
“No, I’m trying to make up for my brother’s mistake. He did something wrong. He shouldn’t do that to you.”
Her voice is soft and even has a tremor.
Yuexi could hear that she is trying to suppress her emotions and not to let herself cry.
She did not do anything wrong, and Yuexi feels a little embarrassed.
She says softly, “Actually I have always wanted to apologize to you, sorry, I robbed your man.”
Xu Ziqi’s action is stiff, and she suddenly raises her head, with a broken light flashing in her eyes.
“Jue and I were growing together. He has been taking care of me since childhood. At that time, I made my mind that no matter what happens, I will marry him. He is the best man in the world and he is so good to me. If not for … ”
“What are you talking about?” Li Fengjue interrupts her, standing at the door, and looks at them coldly.
“Nothing, we were just chatting.” Yuexi quickly explains.
“It’s not early, you should go home, and we are going to rest.” Li Fengjue watches Xu Ziqi and directly orders her to leave.
Xu Ziqi’s expression is a little complicated. There is a struggle in her eyes, but she turns into a well-behaved look, and bites her lip, nodding, and then leaves the room holding a towel.
The door slightly closes.
But her unfinished words make Yuexi a little confused.
Although Li Fengjue interrupts them inadvertently, she feels that something is hidden in it.
When she is thinking about it, Li Fengjue suddenly comes to her, and presses Yuexi directly under him, and then takes off his clothes.
“Li Fengjue, put on your clothes, hey”
