Chapter 68: Don’t Let Me Misjudge You Again (2/2)
“Would Young Master like to first have breakfast or wait until Ma’am is awake?” Zhide approached him and asked.
Shi Fengju could not help but gave a glimpse at the bedchamber and the thought of Sang Wan complicated his frame of mind. Waving his hand, he spoke, “Serve mine first! Have Ma’am’s——” Reaching this point, he suddenly realized that had actually no idea what she liked to eat, and what her taste buds were like. Thinking of how she carefully arranged for the dishes every time, Shi Fengju felt even more unpleasant.
“What Ma’am likes to eat, have the kitchen make for her. Also, brew a bowl of top quality bird nest. When she wakes up, serve it to her.”
The crowd was stunned: When had the young master ever cared about such trivial things?
That moment of silence made Shi Fengju extremely awkward and he gave a cough unnaturally.
The crowd was immediately brought back to their senses. Nanny Li immediately scolded with a scowl, “What are all of you still standing here for? Haven’t you heard the young master’s instructions? Go and do them!”
“Yes!” The crowd hurriedly dispersed.
Shi Fengju had his breakfast absent-mindedly. The food was like a chewy wax that had no taste at all.
“Young master, do you not have the appetite? Is the food not to your liking?” Nanny Li asked with concern.
Shi Fengju quickly smiled, “No, I, I’m done!”
“But Young Master only had so little,” Nanny Li was distressed and said without hesitation, “It must have been due to you having drunk so much yesterday that made you have no appetite today! Hong Ye, go and fetch another bowl of hangover soup!”
Hearing so, Shi Fengju felt a sense of dizziness. The taste of the hangover soup really wasn’t nice! A bowl after another for him to pour down his throat, when had Nanny become so uncaring towards him?
“No need, no need for it!” Shi Fengju hurriedly stood up, “I’ll go and see Sang Wan, my appetite will surely return later!”
Nanny Li had actually wanted to urge him further, but after hearing what he said, she stopped and gave a nod, “Last night when you were drunk to such a state, Ma’am must have tire herself out taking care of you the whole night. Accompanying her more is good!”
Shi Fengju smiled and agreed before turning and entered the bedchamber.
Sang Wan was still lying in the direction away from him. Hearing movements behind her, she gently asked, “Liu Ya?”
“It’s me.” Shi Fengju walked over to her and sat on the edge of the bed.
Sang Wan’s body turned stiff but she did not turn her head back, “Is there still something, Sir?”
“Yes!” Shi Fengju answered seriously, “I do have something I wish to speak with you.”
Sang Wan’s lips moved a little and she said calmly, “Then please speak.”
Shi Fengju repeated the words that were spiraling in his heart a few times before finally having the courage to say it out loud, “Sang Wan, yesterday night, I will be responsible for it!”
What! Sang Wan instantly sat up. Her beautiful eyes that were like the stars above a little teary. “What did you say?”
“I said, I will take responsibility for what I did last night, Sang Wan!” Having said it, Shi Fengju felt relieved. No matter what, he was at the wrong last night. To be so frivolous towards her, he could neither escape nor even more so wrong her.
“Let’s not mention the promise we made. You will always be my wife! This time around, I’ll definitely not go back on my words!” Shi Fengju quickly finished his sentence. After saying it, it was as if a boulder that had been on his heart for a long time was finally removed and he felt at ease.
“No!” With a cold glare, Sang Wan said plainly, “I don’t know what Sir’s talking about! What responsible? What do you want to be responsible for? What does that have to do with me?”
“Sang Wan, I know I was drunk last night and shouldn’t have——”
“Last night, you definitely were drunk!” Sang Wan interrupted before saying each word clearly for him to hear, “You were so drunk that you became unconscious and then fell asleep. That’s all.”
Shouldn’t she be happy instead? Hearing him say so, she would no longer have to worry about the future and the Sang family will not become a gossip of the town! But, she did not want this, she still did not want this.
Now reborn, she did not wish to for her life to be twisted and painful. What use are his touching words? Even if she did believe him, Gu Fangzi would definitely have a way to bend him to her will!
As long as Gu Fangzi remains, and if there is a Gu Fangzi in this house, then there will never be peace in her life! She doesn’t wish to spend her life fighting with her! It would be too tiring, so why bother?
“You’re still angry with me, right?” Shi Fengju got agitated and could not help but place both his hands on her shoulders, “Sang Wan, I’m really sorry! I apologize to you!”
“You didn’t do anything wrong, and I’m not angry!” Sang Wan forcefully shrug off his hands, “I only hope that Sir does not forget the promise you made with me! Don’t let me misjudge you!”
Shi Fengju’s face instantly turned white. Never had anyone spoken to him like that, never! He did not dare to gaze straight at Sang Wan’s face which was filled with conviction. He could not believe that such a sentence would actually escape from a small and red lips.
She would rather deceive herself than let him take responsibility for it. Her heart was focused entirely on wanting to leave him.
The fretful bitterness gradually enveloped Shi Fengju’s heart. He did not know what he was jealous of, only that when he heard that she still wanted to leave, he just felt wrench.
“So be it!” Shi Fengju gritted his teeth. Getting up, he folded his sleeves and left. However, he did not know that behind him, two drops of tears fell from Sang Wan’s eyes and slid gently past her cheeks.
