Chapter 141: He Apologizes for Not Lending Flowers to Others (Part 2)
Jiang Fuyue!
Even though she had her hair down and was wearing a hat, leaving only her back to him, Xie Dingyuan still recognized her.
"Stop." He said solemnly.
The woman pretended not to hear anything, and not only did she not stop, she even quickened her pace.
The man's eyes darkened, and he chased after her, overtaking her and stopping her: "...Why are you running?"
Jiang Fuyue stopped and slowly raised her eyes: "What a coincidence, we meet again."
Xie Dingyuan was annoyed by her half-hearted response: "Why do I feel like you don't want to meet me?"
"Oh, you found out." He didn't feel embarrassed at all, and was justified in his disdain.
Xie Dingyuan: “…”
"Nothing else, I'm leaving now."
"Wait…why are you here?"
Jiang Fuyue: "Come out and play."
The man's scrutinizing gaze swept over her exposed arms, the tight suspenders wrapped around her small waist, and her delicate collarbone was faintly visible under her long hair.
Immediately, his brows furrowed.
"If I remember correctly, you are here for summer camp training."
"Can't we go out and play just because we're in training camp?"
"Don't take it lightly just because you're smart." The man said meaningfully.
Jiang Fuyue thought about it, then nodded seriously: "I also think I'm quite smart."
Xie Dingyuan's mouth twitched, and he said softly: "...not modest."
There was a smile flashing in his eyes.
Even he himself didn't notice it.
"I'll take you home." He said as if possessed by some unknown force.
Jiang Fuyue waved her hand: "No, I called a taxi."
Xie Dingyuan: "You can cancel the order."
"?"
"Why are you looking at me like that?" It was neither a joke nor a teasing. The man frowned, with confusion written all over his face.
Jiang Fuyue spoke frankly: "Don't you think you're weird?"
The man's eyes darkened slightly: "What's strange about that?"
"Inconsistent and inconsistent." The last time Zhong Ziang offered to give her a ride, this man acted unattainable, but now he took the initiative to ask to give her a ride.
Obviously, Xie Dingyuan also thought of it.
He pondered for a moment and then said, "I won't lend my flowers to others."
Zhong Ziang wanted him to send Jiang Fuyue off with just one sentence. The car was his, the gas money was his, and even the strength had to be paid for.
If this isn’t “borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha”, what is?
Even uncles and nephews have to settle accounts clearly. If Jiang Fuyue had been given away at that time, the favor would most likely be attributed to Zhong Ziang. Why would the dignified Ninth Master help others?
If anything is to be delivered, he should be the one to pick it up.
You have to accept his kindness as well.
It's best not to even think about Zhong Ziang's little plans in front of him, as it would be useless even if you do.
Yes, he is so stingy, picky, and fussy.
Suddenly, the look in Jiang Fuyue's eyes when she looked at him was... hard to describe.
but--
"No need for you to send me off."
Xie Dingyuan frowned: "The reason."
She laughed: "Why do you think that if I don't accept Zhong Ziang's favor, I will accept yours? What's the difference between you two? He is still my classmate, and Mr. Xie, who are you to me? Why give it to me?"
The man's Adam's apple rolled slightly: "...your classmate's uncle?"
Jiang Fuyue didn't bother to pay attention to him and turned away.
She had not forgotten that this man had thrown her out like pulling a carrot. Although she later threw him back with an over-the-shoulder throw, this man's attitude was extremely bad.
It was already the limit for her to be able to speak to him calmly for a few words, and he still wanted to send her off?
You wish!
"Sorry." Xie Dingyuan suddenly spoke.
The man stood still and did not catch up like before.
Jiang Fuyue paused, suddenly very curious about his current demeanor. Was it hypocrisy or condescension?
Or is it a momentary softness of the strong towards the weak? A pity and charity?
After all, this guy has a criminal record.
When I first came to apologize to her, I acted so high and mighty, like a mortal being fit only to lick my toes. But now...
Driven by curiosity, Jiang Fuyue slowly turned around——
In a long and narrow corridor, a man stood under a lamp with his hands hanging down, his thin lips pressed into a straight line, his dark pupils were cold, but sincerity could be seen deep in his eyes.
Even when he apologized and expressed his submission, he never lowered his head, as if the word "arrogance" had long been integrated into his bones and blood.
Facing Jiang Fuyue's scrutinizing gaze, he stood still with his back straight, like a silent green mountain. From a distance, it was foggy, vast and hazy; from a close distance, it was angular, steep and dangerous.
She smiled, her red lips raised: "What do you have to be sorry about?"
The man's Adam's apple twitched twice: "...It's Zhong Ziang who has been pestering me. It has nothing to do with you."
Jiang Fuyue raised her eyebrows, but he didn't beat around the bush.
"So, what happened to change your mind? Hmm?"
The ending sound rises, like a furry little tail.
"Ahem..." The man coughed lightly, "Last time at King, you rejected the two boys in front of you. When Zhong Ziang proposed a kiss, I saw you clench your fist..."
Jiang Fuyue's eyes twitched.
"If I'm not mistaken, you want to beat him up."
"As an uncle, aren't you going to stand up for your nephew?" Just like the last time he threw her at the school gate.
A hint of embarrassment flashed across the man's eyes, mixed with a bit of awkwardness and embarrassment.
He just said, "He deserves it."
Jiang Fuyue: “…”
Zhong Ziang, who was caught in the crossfire, responded: "Who am I? Where am I? Am I being pushed out to be slaughtered like a pig?"
Damn uncle, you don’t want to have anything to do with people!
Second update is here! 2,000 words.

The third update is scheduled, at what time... I don't know either, I'll update it after I finish coding.
