Chapter 233: Making a Fuss over Nothing
However, she quickly understood; it was just too obvious...
But who was she, Tu Hengsha? A giant in language, a dwarf in action! The epitome of theory detached from practice! She could talk a good game, sound as if she were lecturing from a pulpit, but when it came to taking action, she was timid as a mouse, quick to flee the scene!
Mr. Su grabbed her hand.
Tu Hengsha screamed shrilly, a sound so chilling it barely differed from seeing a ghost.
It was Mr. Su’s first time doing something like this, and her scream made his face turn red. He thought about it and felt it was somewhat sleazy.
But! Mr. Su couldn’t lose his poise!
Forcing himself to stay calm, he put on a stern face, as black as the bottom of a pot, and scolded her as always, "What are you yelling for? What’s there to be so alarmed about?" He could only be grateful that the lighting was dim, and Tu Hengsha, in her confusion, couldn’t see.

She silently admonished herself not to seem so ignorant... after all, they were all educated individuals... but really, it was so scary... She closed her eyes, trembling with forced calmness, "Mmm-mmm... that... there’s no... nothing to make a fuss about... mainly because... because it’s... right... making a fuss..."
Forcing herself to explain what "making a fuss" meant...
Mr. Su felt a moment of tender compassion...
However, from outside came the excited barking of Bangbangtang, followed by Sister Qian’s voice, "Mr. Su, Miss Tu, it’s time to eat!"
