Chapter 128: A Wonderful Person
He nodded, with a very serious expression, "You are really a fascinating person!"
"..." Where did this come from? Is it a compliment or an insult?
But then he spoke softly, "Facing a man like me whom you barely know, you could let me feed you, wash your feet, and even let me... see the mole on your chest."
The feeding and washing part could be overlooked, but when the words "mole on your chest" popped out, Tu Hengsha got furious, "That was an accident! You damn hooligan!" It was during her hospital stay when they were almost living together, and she was a patient wearing loose hospital pajamas. Once for some inexplicable reason, several buttons on her pajamas just popped open...
He stuffed the box back into her hands, "It’s not from me; Grandma gave it to you. Thank you for keeping her company. Also, I wasn’t aware of the article’s issue. I didn’t intend to explain it so clearly to you because it was a mistake on my end. I was at fault. Besides, I thought you would always believe me, but your temperament..."
He shook his head, stopped speaking, and walked away.
The box was back in her hands, echoing his words in her ears: I thought you would always believe me...
Why did these words sound so awkward?
She called out to his retreating back, "You really know how to protect your own! Clearly, it was Su Rongxing’s mistake! And now you’re blaming me for not believing you? Is it somehow my fault then?"
He turned back, gave her a helpless look, and said one word, "Fool."
"How am I being a fool again?" she was about to roar.
