Chapter 319 Insincere Apology
On a spring afternoon, Ye Rou lay on the soft and comfortable big bed, feeling drowsy and sleepy.
It’s a rare day off, so it’s really nice to be able to sleep in.
There was a soft sound of the door opening, and familiar footsteps walked into the bedroom.
Finally, he stopped by the bed, and his big hand with thin calluses gently touched the side of her face, and his magnetic low voice sounded.
"Want to get up?"
Ye Rou huddled under the quilt and called out in confusion, "Jiang Chen."
"Yeah." A kiss fell on the forehead and Ye Rou narrowed her eyes.
"There's someone out there who wants to see you."
Ye Rou blinked and regained consciousness. "Who wants to see me?"
Jiang Chen leaned over and picked them up, "Chi Tong and Meng Chunping from the military district."
Ye Rou frowned slightly, searching her memory to no avail. "Who is it?"
Jiang Chen said casually, "He's not an important person, so it's okay if we don't meet him."
The quilt was lifted and a cool breeze rushed in. Ye Rou opened her eyes and stared at someone crawling onto the bed.
"what you do?"
Jiang Chen has been sleeping on the sofa for almost half a month.
In the past, he would sleep with Ye Rou in his arms every night. It was very comfortable to hold his sweet and soft wife in his arms.
Ye Rou sleeps well and never gets mad when she wakes up. She won't get angry no matter how much he tosses and turns.
There would be a goodnight kiss before going to bed at night and a goodmorning kiss when waking up in the morning, but now all of these are gone.
He couldn't hold it in any longer and started to climb onto the bed on his own initiative.
He felt no shame at being caught.
The big man pressed heavily on the bed, using his hands and feet to tie him and the quilt tightly. He buried his big head in the crook of Ye Rou's neck and did not move.
Ye Rou, remembering who Chi Tong and Meng Chunping were, decided to go and meet them. Suddenly, she was tied up and helplessly called out, "Jiang Chen."
Someone pretended to be dead while holding his sweet and soft wife.
Ye Rou said coldly: "Next time I give you acupuncture, I can make you really unable to do it."
Jiang Chen got up immediately.
——
The outer hall is decorated in the most traditional Chinese style.
The threshold is very high, and the door is wide open with partitions inlaid with latticed patterns.
Opposite the door is my grandfather's large landscape painting, which is in a freehand style and takes up a large part of the wall.
The set of mahogany furniture is particularly elegant.
The mahogany armchair was hard and not as comfortable as a sofa, which made Meng Chunping and Chi Tong feel even more miserable.
They waited here for nearly an hour, and all they saw was an old woman with a scar on her face and a hideous expression.
It was an obvious show of force, and Chi Tong looked unhappy.
Seeing that no one showed up after waiting for a long time, Chi Tong could no longer sit still and stood up suddenly, "No more waiting, let's go."
Meng Chunping frowned, "I'm already here."
"A yellow-haired girl. If her father wasn't Liang Yushan, she would have been..."
Chi Tong was halfway through his words when he felt a chill on his back.
He suddenly turned around and saw Ye Rou looking at him with her arms folded and a beautiful smile on her face.
The man standing behind her was extremely tall, with extremely gloomy and terrifying eyebrows. All the malice in the world was hidden in his deep eyes, and the sight of him made Chi Tong feel cold to the bone.
It was Ye Rou’s man, Jiang Chen.
Both young people have first-class good looks. Ye Rou has a gorgeous appearance and a calm and gentle temperament, while Jiang Chen has a handsome appearance and a gloomy and cold temperament. Standing together, they are like black and white, with sharp contrast and a strange fusion.
Ye Rou smiled gently, with pure curiosity in her fox eyes, and continued with Chi Tong's words.
"What happened to her a long time ago?"
Chi Tong's face looked ugly and embarrassed. He opened and closed his mouth, no longer having the momentum he had just now.
Meng Chunping stood up to smooth things over for Chi Tong, "Xiao Rou, you're here."
Ye Rou blinked, "This seems to be my home?"
After choking two people, Ye Rou and Jiang Chen sat down leisurely.
Meng Chunping hurriedly handed over the gift she had prepared, "Just a little token of my appreciation."
Su Bai's slender fingers opened the box, revealing a complete set of ruby jewelry. The gems were dark and opaque, with some flaws inside, and the cutting was far inferior to the set that Grandma Song gave her.
She closed the lid without interest, too lazy to talk nonsense with the couple, and got straight to the point.
"What do you want to see me about?"
Chi Tong couldn't bring himself to say anything, so Meng Chunping said, "There was some misunderstanding at the banquet last time."
Ye Rou supported her chin and raised the corners of her lips slightly, "Misunderstanding?"
She repeated the two words, emphasizing their meaning and with some ambiguous teasing.
"How did Chi Liu scold me?" Ye Rousubai tapped her forehead with her fingers. "Oh, I remember now."
The fox eyes turned slightly, staring at Chi Tong who was present at the time, and she repeated with a smile: "Little Alpaca, you bitch dare to wrongly accuse me, Uncle Chi, that's what she scolded me at the time, right?"
These words were full of yin and yang, and completely shattered Meng Chunping and his wife's intention to destroy Taiping.
Jiang Chen narrowed his narrow eyes slightly, staring at Chi Tong and the other man with a look that seemed to be able to kill him.
Chi Tong's back collapsed when he was looked at, and he lowered his head slightly to avoid Jiang Chen's gaze.
Meng Chunping's face was equally grim. She opened and closed her lips several times before forcing out a smile. She explained, "Liu Liu has just arrived in Beijing and doesn't know the rules. We will definitely teach her a lesson when we get back."
Ye Rou tilted her head slightly, her eyes swept between the two of them, and suddenly asked, "Where is she?"
Meng Chunping didn't follow her jumping thoughts, "Who?"
"Chi Liu." Ye Rou: "You want to apologize to me, but the person involved is not here?"
Meng Chunping laughed awkwardly twice.
They actually wanted to come with Chi Liu, but when they told her, Chi Liu immediately exploded and said even more unpleasant things. They were afraid that she would say something careless and anger Ye Rou, so they didn't bring Chi Liu with them.
Hearing Ye Rou's question, Meng Chunping explained: "Liu Liu also wanted to apologize to you in person, but she fell ill before coming, so I didn't bring her with me."
"Oh." Ye Rou responded coldly.
Just as Meng Chunping breathed a sigh of relief, Ye Rou said, "Then you two please go back."
"ah?"
Ye Rou said quietly, "I cannot accept an apology without sincerity."
Chi Tong suppressed his anger and said, "I already said Liu Liu is sick."
"Sick? What's wrong? How serious is it?" Ye Rou asked him back.
How could Chi Tong know all this? He hastily made up a medical condition, "Cold, high fever, unconscious."
Ye Rou raised her chin and smiled, "As long as Chi Liu hasn't died of illness, he'll have to crawl over here to apologize to me. Otherwise, it will be considered insincere."
She smiled gently, but her words were extremely cold.
"You!" Chi Tong angrily slammed the table and stood up suddenly.
"Hmm?" Jiang Chen stared at Chi Tong, his posture casual, but his eyes were particularly sinister. "Do you have any objection to what my wife said?"
Chi Tong froze in place, as if he was being stared at by a large beast.
Meng Chunping quickly tried to smooth things over, "Let's go back and bring Liu Liu here."
She pulled Chi Tong and wanted to leave.
Ye Rou suddenly said, "No need."
Meng Chunping turned around and looked at her, "Miss Ye, do you mean to forgive Liu Liu?"
"What I mean is, there's no need for an apology, because I won't forgive her." Ye Rou stood up and walked to Meng Chunping with the jewelry box.
"You're only coming to me now to apologize because you see the Qu family's ship is sinking, and you and your wife want to find another way out. But I'm sorry, the road you're about to take is a dead end."
Ye Rou returned the jewelry to Meng Chunping and said softly, "The road was blocked by you two. It's not my fault if you can't get through."
From the beginning to the end, it was not Ye Rou who needed this apology.
But it was Chi Keke who was right under the couple's noses, but they deliberately ignored her.
In extreme circumstances, they survived by selling Chi Keke's body. Instead of being grateful, they put all the blame on Chi Keke, blaming a girl for not being able to protect herself when faced with the coercion of bad guys. How ridiculous.
Seeing Ye Rou about to leave, Meng Chunping clutched the jewelry box, her anger rising to her chest again and again, "Ye Rou, don't be so ruthless. If your father wasn't Liang Yushan, how long could you have been so proud!"
Ye Rou stopped, still looking gentle and kind.
"Okay, then let's wait and see how long I can be so proud."
The fox eyes were smiling and full of lust, but it made Meng Chunping shiver.
The mute woman kicked the man out.
Chi Tong stared at the gate gloomily.
Meng Chunping was at a loss: "What should I do now?"
Chi Tong gritted his teeth and said, "Go find Ji Yan."
He lowered his gaze to the jewelry box. "She will accept this gift."
Meng Chunping looked at the vermilion gate hatefully and left with a heart full of resentment.
