Chapter 20: The Handsome Man Holds a Meeting 4
"Shh! Someone's outside—" Facing the sudden intruder, Dongfang Zhao showed no courtesy, directly stretching out his hand and tossing aside the nearest Dongdong. As it happens, he had been practicing darts since he was three years old; the throwing technique for erasers and darts is the same, aiming for the vitals, 'one move to kill' is enough!
Dongfang Zhao's first glance at Wu Ningmo was met with extreme displeasure: "What are you doing here?"
"Hehe……" Wu Ningmo smiled awkwardly, "I was just making soy sauce. I happened to see you and thought of inviting you over——" Wu Ningmo swore on the five-star red flag, although she had told countless lies in her life, but this entire sentence was absolutely true!
"Can't you read!?" Dongfang Zhao suddenly blurted out a sentence.
"Of course!" Wu Ningmo replied with an unusually guilty conscience. Her mind was full of question marks, what did it mean? Was it sarcasm or something else?
The answer was what Dongfang Zhao wanted, he didn't mince words, took a big step forward, his slender fingers stretched out and pointed to the sign hanging on the door.
Wu Ningmu followed the direction of his finger and saw a simple wooden sign with four striking red characters - "Strangers, do not approach!!!" (The three exclamation marks were also written on the sign)
It turned out that he was worried about his sudden intrusion. Wu Ning hurriedly made a second explanation: "I really didn't mean any harm! I just arrived too, and actually I didn't hear anything just now, really!"
Wu Ning's eyes were as sincere as possible, but Dongfang Zhao didn't believe him at all. He said lightly: "Heaven knows!"
"This guy has suspected her more than once, it's really inexplicable! Wu Congmeng suddenly felt a surge of anger and couldn't help but raise his voice: "Dongfang Zhao, can you please stop being suspicious all day long? Every time we meet, you put all sorts of labels on me! It was just a slight misunderstanding the first time we met, I didn't have any ill intentions, why do you keep excluding me? What's with this 'dark night' nonsense? I, Wu Congmeng, have lived for 15 years and heard it from your mouth for the first time. Please don't randomly suspect people, ok? Although I'm not from one of the four big families, nor do I have a noble identity or an illustrious family background, but I also have self-respect..."
Wu Ning had lived for so many years, but it was the first time she spoke a long string of complaints in such a loud and clear manner. After finishing speaking, her heart felt much more relieved, but suddenly she felt a little worried: the four big families were not to be trifled with! The young master Dongfang in front of her wouldn't really kill someone and cover it up just because he was unhappy, would he?
Dark night? Mo Xuan Yu, who was wiping the chalk dust off his head and body with a handkerchief, paused slightly when he heard this word, but quickly recovered.
The other five were also stunned, especially Dongfang Zhao, who had never had anyone dare to speak such harsh words to him in his life.
As far as Dongfang Zhao knew, his arrogant personality was unacceptable to the majority of people. Generally, when people didn't like him, they would secretly curse him and even hold their breath when speaking behind his back. But Wuyi Xi was absolutely the first person who dared to do so in front of him, and possibly also the last one!
Dongfang Zhao's emotions were somewhat complicated at this moment: he had a slight admiration for Wu Ningmeng's straightforwardness, which was commendable; but this couldn't erase all his doubts about her. He probably really didn't see eye to eye with her, and he couldn't help but suspect her!
Finally, Pudding stepped out to mediate: "Uh... Zhao is my friend, Little Dance is also my friend, so you two are friends too. Come to think of it, this whole thing is my fault! I went out earlier and forgot to close the door, so... you two just bow to each other, shake hands, and we'll all be good friends again!"
