Ming Ansheng’s eyes swiftly darted across Su Yue’s tiny face .
Su Yue had turned around as well, but she kept her head bowed . Her thick and long eyelashes hid her emotions .
Ming Ansheng assumed that she was still angry at him for yelling at her at the shopping mall . He strode over and smiled at her . “Little lass, are you still angry?”
He managed to conceal his longing and desire for her . He acted normally .
Su Yue raised her head and retorted, “Who is angry at you? I don’t even care at all . ”
She averted her gaze and looked at Xuxu . “Third sister-in-law, we need to go . I told Jiaojiao that I’m meeting you,” said Su Yue .
Ming Ansheng and Xuxu assumed that she was still angry judging from her attitude and tone .
Xuxu smiled helplessly at Ming Ansheng . “Su Yue and I will make a move first . ”
Ming Ansheng nodded and said, “See you later . ”
Su Yue promptly dragged Xuxu away .
After some distance, Xuxu turned back to glance at Ming Ansheng . Ming Ansheng was talking to his assistant, and then she spun around to look at Su Yue . “Yueyue, you shouldn’t just make assumptions to conclude a matter . ”
“What?” Su Yue avoided Xuxu’s gaze .
Her hands were clenched tightly into fists and her palms were perspiring .
She didn’t dare to meet Ming Ansheng’s eyes . She couldn’t let anyone know that she liked Ming Ansheng, not even her third sister-in-law .
She wanted to forget Uncle Ming quietly and secretly, and she wanted to be with Jiao Chen .
“When Ming Ansheng lectured you that day, he was trying to protect you . ” Xuxu grabbed Su Yue’s arm and patiently explained . “You injured Tang Feiling and she had to get stitches . The police officers were all ready to apprehend you if Ming Ansheng wasn’t there . ”
She wasn’t trying to explain and defend Ming Ansheng . What she wanted to tell Su Yue was that sometimes she has to delve deeper into a matter .
If Xuxu didn’t mention that, Su Yue wouldn’t have understood why she wasn’t arrested despite injuring Tang Feiling .
She wouldn’t have mulled over the reason she wasn’t arrested by the police at the scene .
Indeed, these questions never crossed Su Yue’s mind .
Xuxu’s explanation seemed to tug her heart and she stood there in a daze . She gloomily muttered, “But he was so fierce . ”
She felt that she was no longer important to Uncle Ming . But what bothered her the most was the fact that she had fallen for Uncle Ming .
She couldn’t meet him anymore, as someone else might find out about her feelings for him . Being angry at him was a perfect excuse to ignore him .
Xuxu was perplexed . She replied, “If he wasn’t, how would he be able to appease Tang Feiling?”
He wouldn’t be able to console Tang Feiling hadn’t he berate her in a harsh way . She would definitely want to seek revenge .
“Anyway, this is just your conjecture . ”
Su Yue didn’t feel like talking about it anymore . And so, she pulled her arm away from Xuxu’s grip and walked hastily .
It startled Xuxu when she retracted her arm so abruptly . She stood on the spot as she gazed at Su Yue who seemed to be in a hurry .
Su Yue hastened her footsteps, and by that alone, it was evident that she was upset .
“What’s wrong?”
Xuxu heard Ming Ansheng’s voice behind her .
She turned to him with a smile . “This girl is really feisty . ”
Ming Ansheng chuckled and joked, “She listens to every word you say . Why would she be angry at you?”
