Chapter 13 Provocation

  • “Do you think a simple SORRY would suffice? Do you know how much this (dress) cost!? You’ve ruined my day!” Han Yiqiu continued to make a fuss and she was simmering in anger.
  • What a spoiled and bratty woman!
  • Tuan Tuan was not a guileless person either, she would feel no burden letting the lady have a taste of her own medicine. She faked a mannered smile and said, “Miss, I have given you my sincerest apology, is there anything else you need?”
  • “APOLOGY?! Your apology is practically useless! Do you know you’ve RUINED my day!?” Han Yiqiu continued to squeal and wail.
  • Tuan Tuan eyed her as though her bull-shit-meter was ticking at the red zone,
  • “Cool, if it’s useless then forget about it!”
  • And her reply made Han Yiqiu almost chocked with anger. Just when she was about to explode, she noticed another lady beside Tuan Tuan.
  • Xia Yaxin!
  • She was still marinated in resentment towards Yaxin due to the afternoon episode. And now they meet again.
  • The flames of rage licked through her once more…
  • “YOU AGAIN!”
  • Yaxin stepped forward unwillingly, she tried to be polite and said, “Miss Han, my friend here really did not mean…”
  • “Do you think apologizing will help? I reckon the two of you were deliberately trying to cause trouble!” Han Yiqiu interrupted.
  • Yaxin frowned distastefully at her rudeness. But before she could say anything, another person appeared by the doorway and walked towards Han Yiqiu.
  • It was none other than Mu Haoyu!
  • Yaxin’s stomach instantly dropped in dismay. She avoided eye contact and went stone-faced.
  • Tuan Tuan stared at Mu with an exaggerated jaw-drop as if next thing her tongue would roll out like a red carpet. She then turned her stiffened neck back and looked at Yaxin worriedly.
  • However Yaxin appeared to be calm as sea, showing no sign of care. And that left Tuan Tuan wonderstruck.
  • Whoa… girl you’re so hardboiled!
  • Mu paid no attention to Tuan Tuan and all his attentiveness was caught by Yaxin.
  • Why does she seem to shun me so much?
  • Mu felt a mood of mischief under his collar, the more she wanted to avoid him, the more he wanted to mess with her.
  • “What happened?” Mu asked Han Yiqiu gently.
  • And once she heard Mu’s voice, it was as if her personality changed. She pursed her lips and held his arms dallyingly, “Haoyu, look at how they dirtied my favourite dress from you. I cherished it so much and only wear it during important days…”
  • That pouting face and kittenish tone gave Tuan Tuan goosebumps.
  • “Oh really?” Mu redirected his gaze on Yaxin, expecting a response.
  • Yaxin however, still remained cool as a cucumber and kept her silence.
  • “Miss Han, We had apologized, what else do you want from us?” Tuan Tuan asked.
  • Han Yiqiu kept quiet but put up a discontented face.
  • Yaxin stepped in reluctantly thereafter, “Miss Han, why not we do it this way; you tell us the price of your dress and we compensate you.”
  • Han Yiqiu leered at her and answered, “This is a treasured gift from Haoyu, how can it be compensated with money?”
  • Wow! Is being a cat’s arse a profession or she was just gifted?
  • “What do you want then?!” Tuan Tuan’s tone suggested that she completely lost her patience.
  • And Han Yiqiu’s glance went past Tuan Tuan and fixed on Yaxin…
