Without asking any further, she said, âMiss, I made some white fungus and lotus seed soup, why donât you take some to your fiancé?â
âNo need, heâs currentlyâ¦â
âJust go. I made it already, just let him try some!â After Mrs. Zhang finished speaking, she didnât give Hai Xiaotang a chance to refuse. She went to the kitchen, served a bowl, and handed it to her.
âHurry up and deliver it to your fiancé.â Mrs. Zhang laughed urging her.
Hai Xiaotang immediately grasped Mrs. Zhangâs intentions.
She wanted her to use the excuse of delivering food to reconcile with Dongfang Yu.
Hai Xiaotang smiled, âAlright, Iâll take it to him.â
She also didnât want her relationship with Dongfang Yu to break down, so going to appease him was a good idea.
Hai Xiaotang carried the white fungus and lotus seed soup upstairs and knocked on his study room door, âDongfang Yu, may I come in?â
ââ¦â There was no response from inside, presumably because he was still upset.
Hai Xiaotang straightforwardly said, âIf you donât respond, Iâll come in.â
Dongfang Yu still did not respond. Hai Xiaotang couldnât help but want to laugh. His silence was his acquiescence, wasnât it?
Pushing the door open, the moment Hai Xiaotang walked in, she saw him sitting at his desk, reading a book.
Even when she came in, he didnât glance her way; it was as if she were invisible.
Hai Xiaotang went over, set down the white fungus soup, glanced at the book he was reading, and exclaimed in surprise, âWhy are you holding it upside down?â
Dongfang Yu was startled, instinctively tried to flip the book right side up, only to instantly realize he hadnât been holding it upside down at all. Hai Xiaotang was just playing a prank on him.
Dongfang Yu slammed the book down on the table, annoyed, he asked, âWhy are you here, who let you in?â
âDidnât you let me in?â Hai Xiaotang was surprised, âI said if you didnât respond, Iâd come in, and you didnât respond.â
âI didnât hear you at all.â
âOh, then Iâll leave.â Hai Xiaotang said, about to leave.
However, before she could take a step, her wrist was caught, followed by Dongfang Yuâs cold voice, âIs this a place where you can come and go as you wish? What are you here for? Tell me the truth!â
Hai Xiaotang pointed to the white fungus and lotus seed soup, âMrs. Zhang asked me to bring this to you. She made it, why donât you try some?â
âJust this?â Dongfang Yu raised his eyebrows.
Hai Xiaotang nodded, calmly said, âYes, just this. Is there anything else? If not, Iâm going.â
With that, she shook her wrist, failing to free it from his grip.
Hai Xiaotang glared, âDidnât you tell me to leave? Let go, I wonât bother you anymore!â
Dongfang Yu just stared at her strangely. Just as Hai Xiaotang was feeling bewildered, he suddenly muttered, âAlright, I understand youâre here with food to appease me. Hai Xiaotang, you know you did something wrong, right?â
Hai Xiaotang was taken aback, âWhat did I do wrong?â
Dongfang Yu coldly huffed in dissatisfaction, âYou dare to think about divorcing me. Do you think youâre right?!â
âThatâs just becauseâ¦â
âYou still dare to speak! Do you really think I wouldnât dare do anything to you?â Dongfang Yu glared at her furiously, âTell me, will you dare do this in the future?!â
Hai Xiaotang was gloomy from his scolding, âI was just trying to do whatâs best for you.â
âI think you just want to deliberately anger me to death. If it were for my sake, you shouldnât have thought about it like that!â
âBut they were planning toâ¦â
âHai Xiaotang, it seems like without giving you a lesson, you wonât remember!â Dongfang Yu, picking her up abruptly, strode towards the door.
Hai Xiaotang, alarmed, asked, âWhat are you doing?â
