Chapter 458: 458, the couple is arguing
Mo Weiyi took a deep breath, “I need some time to calm down.”
Xiao Yebai looked down at her with a calm gaze. After a few seconds, he sarcastically said, “Taking it out on the boys on the sports field?”
Mo Weiyi frowned, “What nonsense are you talking about?”
Xiao Yebai’s eyes were dark, though his facial expressions remained unwavering.
“Ling Zhizhou is my junior. He’s a freshman, two years younger than me. We’re just friends, and we’ve only just met. Unlike you.” Mo Weiyi suddenly smiled cynically, “I haven’t asked Ling Zhizhou to get my clothes for me.”
The man’s figure suddenly tightened, his voice cold and low, “Mo Weiyi, I have explained this matter.”
Since their marriage, he rarely called her by her full name.
The last time seemed to be about Xiao Zhiwei.
This time, it was about Tian Ye.
Mo Weiyi suddenly felt suffocated, and words poured out from her lips.
“Yes, you’ve explained, but only after I forced you to. When I think about your attitude at that time, I feel uncomfortable, and I can’t be happy. I think I need to calm down. For now, I will stay at school. Don’t come looking for me again, because I won’t come home even if you do.”
With that, she turned and left.
This time, Xiao Yebai didn’t stop her.
Mo Weiyi kept walking forward, step by step.
After what felt like countless steps, she suddenly stopped and turned around.
The school gate was empty.
The man’s figure had already disappeared.
Mo Weiyi smiled bitterly, then turned around and continued heading for the dormitory.
**
Lishui Bay Villa.
After receiving a call from Mo Weiyi, Aunt Zhou came to the second-floor dressing room to pack up clothes.
Just after she had picked out a few items of clothing, footsteps could be heard coming from the stairs.
Aunt Zhou quickly stood up and left the dressing room, “Young master Xiao.”
Xiao Yebai squinted his eyes.
Aunt Zhou quickly returned to pulling the suitcase out, unnecessarily explaining, “Young master Xiao, these are preparations that the princess asked me to make. She said she would be jogging every morning, so I prepared some…”
“There’s no need to report these minor matters to me.” Xiao Yebai interrupted coldly, and went toward his bedroom.
Aunt Zhou couldn’t help but speak again, “Young master Xiao.”
Xiao Yebai stopped in his tracks, his black eyes looking at her sternly.
Aunt Zhou’s heart was in a panic, but she still summoned the courage to ask, “Is the princess coming home tonight?”
Xiao Yebai didn’t say a word.
“Young master Xiao, didn’t you say yesterday that the princess would be home tonight?” Aunt Zhou looked innocent, “If the princess is coming home tonight, I’ll call Chef Chen, and let her…”
“No need.” Xiao Yebai interrupted again, his handsome face cold as he said in a low voice, “Let her stay as long as she wants.”
“Huh?”
Before Aunt Zhou could react, Xiao Yebai entered the bedroom and shut the door behind him.
Things have gotten really bad.
Aunt Zhou was at a loss.
Were the young couple really planning to separate?
**
In the afternoon, Aunt Zhou, bringing the suitcase, drove to Nancheng University.
While there, she helped clean up the dorm room.
After finishing everything, Aunt Zhou stepped out of the bathroom, looking at the little princess lying on the bed reading a book, she cautiously asked, “Princess, did you quarrel with young master Xiao?”
Mo Weiyi squinted her beautiful cat eyes, her tone languid, “No.”
Because Xiao Yebai would never argue with her.
Before or after their marriage, his attitude towards her remained indifferent and distant.
Except for his enthusiasm and dedication in bed, he hardly ever spoke to her in other matters. So how could he quarrel with her?
Mo Weiyi would actually like if he could argue with her, maybe then he could express his true feelings.
“Princess, should I tell the old master…”
“No.” Mo Weiyi interrupted sharply.
This was just between the two of them, but if her grandfather were to find out and get involved, it would end up like when they were young. She would be forced to give in under pressure.
Mo Weiyi didn’t want this.
“Aunt Zhou, I just want to focus on studying for my final exams, so I moved to the dormitory to live with Wanwan for a while. Don’t overthink it, and don’t tell my grandfather, understand?”
“Okay.” Aunt Zhou could only agree.
…
Not long after Aunt Zhou left, Su Wanwan also returned.
Mo Weiyi hurried to the neighboring dormitory, “Baby Wanwan, accompany me out for dinner.”
“I need to go back to the manor.”
“Huh?” Mo Weiyi wrinkled his little face, “Won’t you accompany me to dinner then?”
“Grandmother asked me to come home for dinner.”
Today is the weekend, and Grandmother Huo had called specifically to say that she had caught several fresh carp from the Chu family’s fish pond next door, and asked her to come and taste it.
She had indeed not returned to the compound for a while, so Su Wenwen found it hard to refuse.
Mo Weiyi pouted, “When will you come back then?”
“I’ll be back after dinner.”
“Alright then.” Mo Weiyi finally felt relieved.
After Su Wanwan changed her clothes and left, Mo Weiyi returned to his dormitory to continue reading.
Not long after, his cellphone suddenly rang.
It turned out to be from Rong An, whom he hadn’t been in contact with for a while.
As soon as the call connected, Rong An said, “Princess, my injuries have healed, and the old master has ordered me to return.”
“But I live on campus now.”
These days, Mo Weiyi had been living quite peacefully and didn’t really need a bodyguard, besides, the last one had been sent back to the old house by him a long time ago.
Rong An immediately said, “I’ll come to the campus and find you right now.”
Mo Weiyi: “…”
He originally wanted to refuse, but since Wanwan had gone back to the compound, there was no one to have dinner with him…
“Then you come and have dinner with me.”
“Alright, I’ll be there soon.”
**
On the other hand, Su Wanwan took a taxi directly back to the compound.
As soon as Grandmother Huo saw her return alone, she naturally complained about her grandson, “Why did you let her come back alone? What’s wrong with Ashen? He doesn’t know how to cherish his wife, I need to give him a piece of my mind!”
Su Wanwan explained cheerfully, “Grandmother, it’s more convenient for me to come directly from school, so I didn’t ask him to pick me up.”
In fact, she didn’t inform Huo Jingshen at all.
She hadn’t forgotten about the incident a few days ago when he secretly let Xiao Yebai take Mo Weiyi away behind her back.
Traitors must be punished!
Grandmother Huo laughed, “The meal will be ready in a moment, have some strawberries first. They were just delivered this morning by Wang Zhengwei from next door, they’re very sweet.”
“Alright.” Su Wanwan sat on the sofa.
As she watched the entertainment news on TV, she picked up a large strawberry and took a bite.
Um, it is indeed very sweet.
Before she had finished eating one, a sound of footsteps rang out.
Immediately after.
“Miss Su.”
Su Wanwan’s face sank.
Chu Jingyi?
Why does she encounter her every time she comes to the old house?
Like a lingering ghost.
Grandmother Huo also heard the voice and came out of the kitchen. Seeing Chu Jingyi, she hurriedly looked at her granddaughter-in-law on the sofa.
She couldn’t help muttering in her heart, ordinarily she doesn’t make such frequent visits, why does Chu Jingyi show up every time her granddaughter-in-law comes back? Is there an inside informant?
“Grandmother Huo.” Chu Jingyi was very enthusiastic, “Oh, there are guests today. That’s great, my grandfather asked me to bring some crabs to supplement your meal.”
“She’s your sister-in-law, not a guest.” Grandmother Huo firmed her face and spoke sternly.
Sister-in-law?
The smile on Chu Jingyi’s lips froze.
This yellow-haired girl was a full ten years younger than her and still a student. She hadn’t even stepped into society yet and she’s supposed to call her sister-in-law?
Grandmother Huo said seriously, “Of course, Ashen is the oldest among your generation, and all of you call him elder brother. So, naturally, Wenwen is your elder sister-in-law. Remember, don’t address her as Miss Su anymore, remember to call her sister-in-law.”
Su Wenwen had already come over by this time. She smiled and locked arms with the old lady, “Grandma, it turns out my status is so high?”
“Of course, you’re our Huo family’s eldest daughter-in-law. In the future, when you have a child, you’ll be our Huo family’s …”
“Is Jingshen here?” Chu Jingyi abruptly interrupted.
Grandmother Huo frowned, “What do you need with Ashen?”
Chu Jingyi’s red lips curved into a smile, “Nothing much, I just have something I want to give him. Since he’s not here, I’ll find another opportunity to give it to him. Goodbye, Grandmother Huo.”
Without waiting for Grandmother Huo to reply, she turned around and left.
Grandmother Huo frowned deeply.
This Chu Jingyi, she’s becoming less cute than when she was a child.
Seeing the slight discomfort on Su Wenwen’s face, she quickly explained, “Wanwan, don’t overthink it, she rarely comes over usually.”
In front of her elders, Su Wanwan, naturally wouldn’t appear petty. She resumed her sweet smile, “Grandmother, I really didn’t overthink, don’t worry.”
Grandmother Huo didn’t want to dwell on this topic anymore. She glanced at the TV and remarked, “Oh, this actress looks quite familiar.”
