Chapter 2085: ╮(╯▽╰)╭
Ning Shu looked at Bai Feifei and asked, “You don’t want me to be your stepmother?”
“Of course not.” Bai Feifei leaned closer and whispered, “Uncle doesn’t like you. What’s the point of you chasing Uncle like this when it’ll make everyone miserable?”
Ning Shu: →_→
Of course, Ning Shu knew that Bai Feifei was deliberately riling her up and that such words would frustrate anyone.
Ning Shu didn’t have any feelings for Tang Yu. It didn’t matter to her if he liked anyone, and she didn’t want his reciprocation. She didn’t care anyway ╮(╯▽╰)╭.
She stared at Bai Feifei. With that heavy eye shadow painted on her eyelids, Bai Feifei looked as if she had been beaten by someone. Ning Shu lightly said, “Then who do you think your uncle will be happy with?”
“It’s not you, anyway.” Bai Feifei raised her chin.
Ning Shu was currently sorting vegetables, so her hands smelled of leeks. She reached out and wiped her hand on Bai Feifei’s shirt as she faintly said, “Do you mean that your uncle will be happy with you?”
Bai Feifei was so startled that she almost jumped. She felt embarrassed, as if she had been stripped naked in public. She repeatedly denied Ning Shu’s words. “Auntie, what are you talking about? I can’t imagine Uncle’s wife being someone like you.”
Ning Shu brushed her hair aside. “If not like me, then you mean a girl like you?”
“You…” Bai Feifei’s face flushed with anger at Ning Shu. “You’re a two-faced woman! I won’t agree to you marrying Uncle.”
Ning Shu rolled her eyes. “What gives you the right to disagree? You’re just an adopted daughter—the marriage between our families isn’t something you can oppose. Even though Tang Yu is your guardian and adoptive father, you still can’t oppose his wishes.”
“You…” Bai Feifei was speechless at this rebuttal, and also felt very annoyed with herself. Yes, Uncle was just her guardian, not her father. She couldn’t ask Uncle to, for her sake, go against the marriage that his family had arranged.
Bai Feifei raised her head to stop her tears from falling, but a few still escaped. Two black lines appeared on her face.
Ning Shu averted her gaze and continued working on sorting out the vegetables as she said with a faint smile, “Go wash your face, tsk tsk…”
Bai Feifei wiped her tears away with the back of her hand, which turned half her face black.
Tang Yu came downstairs and stared for a long time before he recognized the punk looking delinquent. His face darkened and he immediately ordered, “Go get changed! Who allowed you to dress like this?”
Her pale, slender thighs were on display, her hair was ruffled, and she looked as though ashes had been smeared on her face.
Bai Feifei already felt wronged, and now Tang Yu was yelling at her in front of Ning Shu. It suddenly felt like she’d lost to her.
Despite Bai Feifei’s earlier denial, she saw Ning Shu as competition. And her heart was full of ire towards Tang Yu’s future wife.
“Why are you still standing here? Go get changed! You’re not allowed to dress like this in the future. It makes you look like a bad girl,” Tang Yu ordered.
Bai Feifei wiped her tears. “I like dressing like this. Who do you think you are? Why do you care what I wear?”
“I’m your guardian. I have the right to ask you to change your clothes. You’re not allowed to dress like that in this house,” Tang Yu said, his voice low. “Now, I won’t say it a second time. Get changed.”
Ning Shu: You’ve already said it three times.
Bai Feifei was an adolescent going through a stage of rebellion. She was sensitive and, not only did she have inexplicable feelings towards Tang Yu, she had been reprimanded by her crush in front of her rival. She couldn’t stand it. “This family doesn’t have room for me anyway. Fine, I’ll just leave!”
Bai Feifei wiped her tears and rushed out of the villa.
Tang Yu frowned. He hesitated for a moment and then told Ning Shu, “I’m going after her. There’s a lot of cars on the road at this time, she could get in an accident.”
