Shu Mei felt stumped. She would never address Li fang as Xu Yuan's wife. She then went quiet for a few second hearing the footsteps coming closer, she fell on the floor in a pitiful manner. Xue Mei was confused but Li fang could already guess where this was going. As she thought of it Xu Yuan was in front of the room.
Shu Mei prepared her pitiful speech and she started giving it off. "Siste.. Mistress Xu, I didn't know you would find it so disgraceful to be called sister by me. I'm sorry if I inconvenienced mistress xu." Then little pitiful tears fell down her face. Xue Mei saw Xu Yuan at the door and instantly understood what was going on. She instantly protested. The innocent girl's chubby face was twisted with displeasure and anger. She knew Shu Mei was a bad person but this was a different level of low to her. To use such a low-level tactic..
Xu Yuan examined the room and fairly understood the situation. His eyes landed on the unconcerned Li fang and his lip twitched. Why did she act like she wasn't a part of the conversation? His eyes finally landed on the piece of paper on Li fang's hand. He went over to her to read it.
Hm, the little lady's handwriting was quite delicate.
But after reading the contents of the paper, Xu Yuan frowned. Knowing that this wasn't the original Li fang and that this Li fang seemed to have a dissatisfaction towards him, it wasn't off she wouldn't want to be stuck in a marriage she didn't want, but Xu Yuan felt... reluctant to let her go.
Examining Xu Yuan's expression, Shu Mei felt that was the time to strick the hot iron. She looked reluctant to say but her lips moved anyway "Brother Xu, I believe that you and mistress Li are not in favorable terms but i tried to talk her out of it but...she even hit me for it." "Who said the master and mistress aren't in favorable terms?! Must you muddle in another person's relationship?! " Xue Mei retorted. Shu Mei felt really indignated towards Xue Mei. This brat always had to talk didn't she?!
Xu Yuan looked at Li fang and she looked back at him not refusing or accepting the claim but Xu Yuan could hear her thoughts.
Li fang: Although I didn't slap her, it's not bad to borrow her lie a little. If the meanie knows that I hit his beloved mistress, he will for sure divorce me. Li fang felt proud of her plan but Xu Yuan had already seen through them. He sighed and went to Li fang and held her hands. "Let's have a little talk about this" His voice wasn't the usual cold voice but was a soft gentle one smothered in honey.
Everyone in the room was stunned. Even Xu Yuan personal guard, Jiang Dawei, who was at the door couldn't hold the surprise on his face when he heard Xu Yuan.
After snapping out of it, Li fang removed her hands from Xu Yuan's and felt complicated. This wasn't right. The male lead was all wrong! She bolted out the door and Xue Mei ran after her. Jiang Dawei coughed and bowed a little as they passed him.
Shu Mei was still kneeling there on the floor. Xu Yuan didn't give her any face and immediately left. It seemed like needed to ask his mother to take care of this 'mistress' she brought in.
