Chapter 1026: Too Rough

Fu Zhaoning was really fed up with this kind of thing.

So even though Xiao Lanyuan called her in a low voice, intending to interrupt her, she still took over and continued speaking.

"Although you didn't say it directly, everything you did and said showed that you didn't like me. At the same time, you were reminding Xiao Lanyuan that if we didn't get along well, it was my fault. You were afraid that I would be angry or misunderstand you. You are innocent, and the responsibility lies with me."

"Including what you said just now. What do you mean by not knowing my temperament and whether I would get angry? If you were sincere, wouldn't you first ask Xiao Lanyuan, whom you regard as your junior, whether I would like you to call my name affectionately? If you were not playing tricks, wouldn't you first ask what flavor I like to eat, whether you have cured Xiao Lanyuan's illness, and whether he has a problem with eating spicy food now?"

"You don't say it directly, you don't ask it openly, you don't do it openly, and you keep playing tricks and using some rhetoric."

Fu Zhaoning's words were direct and rude, just like slapping Madam Cheng in public.

Madam Cheng has never met such a person in her life. How could someone say these words so directly?

Could it be that Fu Zhaoning's intestines grew straight? Were they completely free of twists and turns?

Also, she clearly had no evidence and nothing she said was wrong, so why could Fu Zhaoning be so sure and see through her thoughts so clearly?

Others just felt suffocated, but they couldn't tell what was wrong with her.

Lu Guo also looked at Fu Zhaoning in amazement.

It was really the first time she met a man who seemed to tear the lady apart with just his bare hands!

Both the master and the servant had never met anyone as direct and rude as Fu Zhaoning in their entire lives.

"I actually have a bad temper and no patience. I don't want to bother with this kind of thing. I think if I don't tell you, you don't know how long you'll keep using this trick. I'm tired of thinking about it. And when I see Xiao Lanyuan can't see through your tricks, I'll also be in a bad mood and feel irritated."

"Ningning, I——"

"Can you tell?" Fu Zhaoning looked at Xiao Lanyuan, raised his eyebrows and asked back.

Xiao Lanyuan was speechless for a moment.

It's hard to say that he couldn't see it at all. In fact, he also felt that Mrs. Cheng's words were a bit ungenerous and unmagnanimous, but because he felt that there should be no conflict of interest between Mrs. Cheng and Fu Zhaoning, he didn't think much about it.

In his opinion, it was his own business to be grateful for Madam Cheng's kindness to him in the past. He would not ask Fu Zhaoning to respect Madam Cheng as much as he did.

Mrs. Cheng would not spend much time with them, so she and Fu Zhaoning did not have many opportunities to get to know each other better.

In this case, it is not worth it for Mrs. Cheng to play any tricks, because in his opinion it is completely unnecessary and has no value.

Mrs. Cheng had no say in his lifelong affairs.

It was precisely because he thought so simply and directly that he did not think too much about Mrs. Cheng's behavior.

Now that Fu Zhaoning had said it so directly, he thought about it again and found that what Fu Zhaoning said was absolutely correct.

Once the truth is revealed, it becomes crystal clear.

Xiao Lanyuan felt a little guilty under Fu Zhaoning's clear gaze. He didn't even realize that she had suffered so much injustice in the past two days.

He wanted to explain, but Fu Zhaoning didn't want to hear him say too much at the moment.

"It was originally a gift for me, as agreed upon. When Madam Cheng arrived, she tacitly allowed the maidservant beside her to boss me around, not only asking me to give the gift away, but also asking you to pay the bill. If she really just doesn't know my temper, how could she be so rude at this time?"

Fu Zhaoning looked at Lu Guo, "And this girl, without your acquiescence, how dare she say all kinds of nonsense to me? Do you believe that I can make her mute with a needle?"

Luguo's pupils shrank, and his hands were faster than his brain, and he immediately covered his mouth in horror.

"Look, if I show unfriendliness and bad temper, she will know to be afraid of me, right? So wasn't her previous arrogance because you acquiesced, and you thought I would tolerate you for Xiao Lanyuan? This shows that you are not unaware of my temper, but you have guessed it beforehand, but you guessed it wrong."

Fu Zhaoning laughed sarcastically.

"You have already estimated me several times behind my back, and now you tell me that you don't know me and don't know my personality, and you are afraid that I will be angry? Do you know what you are called? Green tea, tea talk, really annoying."

Old Master Fu was also stunned.

Although he knew that his granddaughter's temper had worsened in the past two years and she was not very nice with her words, he had never seen her yell at someone like this.

Oh my goodness, this, this really won’t make Madam Cheng cry?

"Ningning, it's done." Xiao Lanyuan actually picked up Fu Zhaoning and said to Madam Cheng, "Aunt Cheng, you go back first."

He guessed that Aunt Cheng really didn't have the face to stay any longer.

After saying that, he strode out holding Fu Zhaoning in his arms.

"Eh?" Old Master Fu stretched out his hand, but felt it was difficult to stop him, so he simply said nothing.

Fu Jinchen also reacted. He straightened his expression and said to Madam Cheng, "Madam, take care."

Although Xiao Lanyuan asked her to go back first, Fu Jinchen's order was completely to leave.

It was hard to tell whether Mrs. Cheng's face looked red or green, but it really didn't look good.

Moreover, she looked clearly still dazed and unable to come back to her senses. After being ordered to leave, she walked out of the Fu family's gate in a daze.

By the time he got on the carriage, he had not yet recovered from the intense shame and disbelief.

Green Fruit was even trembling a little.

Because when Fu Zhaoning looked at her and said that he would use a needle to make her mute, his expression was so serious, so serious that she felt as if she were there, as if the silver needle in Fu Zhaoning's hand was going to pierce her in the next second.

Both the master and the servant were trembling slightly and couldn't find their own voice.

Qing Yi, however, followed out and said something to the coachman.

"Send them back to the palace first, and come back to pick up the prince later."

The driver nodded in agreement.

Qing couldn't help but let out a breath as he watched the carriage drive away.

While the princess was speaking just now, he subconsciously held his breath. He didn't know why he felt so much pressure at that time. He was afraid that after the princess scolded Madam Cheng and then the prince, she would glare at him and scold him as well.

The princess's behavior just now was really a bit scary.

Those words were like a blade, whizzing and cutting the flesh piece by piece.

"I don't know how the prince is doing now." Qing Yi murmured to himself, not daring to follow him to the backyard.
