Chapter 401 Impenetrable wall.
Yu Dong had expected a lot of things when she heard Xiao Hua\'s screaming voice but what she didn\'t expect was to find Xiao Hua on the verge of starting a brawl and from the looks of it he looked like he was going to win it too. As she walked to the scene of the fight, she looked around the Chen family and then turned to look at Li Hanjing who was holding Xiao Hua back while little Zimo was trying to remove all the dangerous things from Xiao Hua\'s reach, most probably he was afraid that Xiao Hua will use it as a weapon to start a war.Yu Dong originally wanted Fang Chi to stay at the house but the latter stubbornly refused, saying that he was getting stifled with all the pampering she was giving him and wanted to see what was going on —— according to him, since Shen Li and the others were not here, he was the one in charge and need to be next to be with Yu Dong no matter what as her husband. There was nothing much she could say when he put it like that, in the end, she had to bring Fang Chi along with her.
Nobody answered, causing Yu Dong\'s brows to scrunch up as she looked at the crowd that was gathered in the courtyard of the house that she bought for the mers. " Can you all not hear me? I said what the hell you are doing here? It\'s the middle of the night, why aren\'t you asleep in your houses and creating a ruckus here? Do you think that the oil to light these lamps comes from your pockets? I pay for it you are wasting my money by causing a disturbance at such an hour."
Oil was really expensive in this world, that was why instead of staying up late the people of the village would go to sleep as soon as the sun set and even if they had to use lamps at night, people would only light up a two or three and use it. But now that the Chen family has caused unnecessary trouble to them, the mers had to light up the entire courtyard in case the Chen family tried to do something to them or Xiao Hua by taking advantage of the dark.
The whole courtyard was lit up like it was a festival spot.
Yu Dong strode towards Xiao Hua while she asked the question with Fang Chi in tow and then turned around to face the Chen family. No one knew whether she did it deliberately or not but she stood right in front of Xiao Hua like a protective wall that was simply impenetrable.
Xiao Hua who was shielded by Yu Dong felt his heart go \'boom\', \'boom\' again as he stared at the tall back that was covering him completely and felt like he was going to swoon again. He clutched the front of his shirt and inwardly scolded himself—- \' What\'s the matter with you? You stupid heart? Be still! No, don\'t you go acting up again like this.\'
While Xiao Hua was busy scolding his poor heart who simply had no choice, Yu Dong faced the drunken Chen Ying and asked with a frown, " I am asking why are you here? Troubling these mers? Don\'t you have anything else to do?" Then she turned to look at the Chen parents and asked, " If your daughter cannot hold her alcohol then why do you allow her to drink? Look at the mess she causing on my property and causing trouble for people."
The Chen parents though embarrassed didn\'t say anything, they knew how stubborn their daughter was, even if they asked her to drop the idea of bringing Xiao Hua to their house, she wouldn\'t listen to them. Though they were upset with their daughter, they were even more upset with Xiao Hua, inwardly they couldn\'t help but curse Xiao Hua for being too shameless and stubborn, in their eyes he was nothing but an ex-courtesan who used to serve different women every day. Howbeit, he was famous for being viewed as the untouchable flower of the tavern for years, it doesn\'t change his background does it?
That place was dirty to begin with, even if Xiao Hua was untouchable who knows what kind of things he learned in that place and if that wasn\'t bad enough, he was also a shrew!
If not for his beautiful face and their cravings to get a beautiful grandchild, they would have never allowed their daughter to create this big of a mess.
Nevertheless, the Chen parents didn\'t say a word despite thinking something like that in their heads, they just turned to Yu Dong and smiled awkwardly.
Xiao Hua who could no longer stand the silence, burst out as he pointed at Chen Ying, " This woman, she is the one who is causing trouble for me! She turned up at my threshold and started threatening me with her life, saying that if I don\'t marry her, she will kill herself. I mean look at her and then look at me, do we even match? And there is no way I am going to be forced into a marriage, if I am going to marry, I will marry the woman whom I love!"
Li Hanjing: "…." I am sorry to break your bubble, Hua Hua, but do you even know what is love?
The same question came to Yu Dong\'s mind as she turned to look at Chen Ying and her family with a smile that was dangerous as that of a demon who was on the verge of rampaging and asked, " So whose plan was this? Like who thought that it was a good idea to turn up in front of my property and threaten the mers who belong to me at the moment?"
