Chapter 251 - 249: Mr. Wuya, Forced Marriages Are Out of Fashion These Days
"Mr. Wuya spent a year at the Simple Residence Courtyard without name or role, don’t you think you owe Mr. Wuya an explanation?" Dongfang Wuya solemnly claimed.
Shen Qinghe pretended not to hear, and as she turned her gaze, she noticed that many were pricking up their ears to eavesdrop on her conversation with Dongfang Wuya.
Seeing her look their way, everyone tacitly turned to look into the distance.
"Shen Qinghe, Mr. Wuya is talking to you about serious matters, have you been listening to Mr. Wuya at all?" Dongfang Wuya, dissatisfied, straightened Shen Qinghe’s chin.
Shen Qinghe slapped his hand away: "I don’t know what you’re talking about!"
"Then let’s settle the accounts now! In the past year, Mr. Wuya has lowered himself to do whatever you wanted, even practicing such dull activities, haven’t you cooled off yet? On the day we were to wed, Mr. Wuya didn’t deliberately fail to show up, you can’t just sentence Mr. Wuya to death over this!" Dongfang Wuya kept up his complaints without taking a breath.
"Enough, we’ll talk about this back at the Simple Residence Courtyard," Shen Qinghe, aware that everyone was all ears for this trivial romantic matter between her and Dongfang Wuya, hurriedly said.
"No, it must be made clear today. Mr. Wuya has served you for a year, no matter what, you should give Mr. Wuya an explanation." Dongfang Wuya looked at Shen Qinghe expectantly.
Shen Qinghe looked at Dongfang Wuya speechlessly: "What do you mean ’served me for a year’? You were clearly cultivating on your own, that’s your business, what does it have to do with me?"
Her words made it sound as though there had been an unclear relationship between her and him throughout the year.
In truth, over this past year, they had each practiced cultivation without interfering with each other. He was indeed playing word games, making statements that could lead to misunderstandings.
