Chapter 585: Cold Shoulder
Translator: Lonelytree
Xiao Zhiâs expression was a little unnatural.
I simply said, âWhy isnât Miss Angel around? Iâve been meaning to ask her how Iâve offended her and how she wants to settle the matter between us.â
Even though the battle of words was very exciting, I wasnât willing to waste my time on such a boring matter. I might as well speak frankly.
Xiao Zhiâs embarrassment was written all over her face.
âNanxing, the reason I invited you here today is to have a good chat with you. Angel is still young, Sheâs not thinking well. What happened that day was indeed her fault. Can Auntie Zhi make it up to you? What do you like? Or do you have any wishes? If Auntie Zhi can fulfill it, I will. However, I hoped that
youâd forgive Angel.â Xiao Zhiâs attitude suddenly became very servile.
Iwas slightly stunned.
Xiao Zhi had been humble, but she was not servile until this moment. What changed?
Before I could react, a voice suddenly sounded. âI donât need you to speak up for me. I wonât let you take credit for solving this matter on my behalf. After all these years, arenât you tired with this game?â
The main character had arrived.
Angel stood in front of us with her arms crossed and legs crossed in a punk outfit. Her face was covered in a colorful makeup.
However, when she saw Jing Tian and Tong Le, she immediately restrained herself. âCousin, youâre here too?â
Of course, she was talking to Jing Tian.
I leaned against Jing Tian. Jing Tian put his hand on my shoulder and nodded slightly.
Angelâs expression changed immediately. She glared at me and asked, âWhy are you here? Did you come to my house to provoke me?â
I smiled. Before I could say anything, Xiao Zhi stood up in fear and trepidation and walked over to stop her. âAngel, donât be like this. They are my guests. How can youâ¦â
Angel ignored her. She pushed Xiao Zhi aside and walked over to Jing Tian. In that moment, she was already smiling like a flower. I couldnât help but sigh at the speed at which her expression changed.
âCousin, why didnât anyone inform me that you are coming? Have you finished setting up your new home? When can I come over and play with you? I heard that your new home is very beautiful,â Angel said. She sat down beside Jing Tian.
She cornered him at the corner.
The moment Angel sat down, Jing Tian held my waist and stood up. âAunt Zhi, when can we eat? My friends and I are all hungry.â
Xiao Zhi was obviously embarrassed. âAlright. We can eat now. Well, letâs go to the dining room.â
Jing Ni followed by my side. Maggie held my uncleâs arm. Everyone turned a blind eye to Angel.
I turned my head to look at Jing Tian.
Jing Tian lowered his head and scratched my nose. âAunt Zhiâs chef cooks a few dishes that are very good. Try them. In fact, later, Iâll send a chef over to your place. He can cook all your favorite dishes.â
Jing Ni covered her eyes. âSeventh uncle, can you please walk properly?â
Mai Qi chuckled. âJing Ni, Iâll request my brother to come quickly. That way, you wonât be the single one out anymore.â
Jing Niâs face turned red. âYou keep bullying me!â
We chatted and laughed as we followed Aunt Zhi. A loud noise came from behind us.
Jing Tian nimbly protected Jing Ni and me. My little uncle shielded Mai Qi. We all turned around and saw a crystal vase on the ground shattered into pieces, while Angelâs face was filled with anger.
