Pointing at herself in astonishment she said, “Brother Yongheng, what did you say? I, I would be compensating?”
Mo Yongheng replied, “Who was the one who had made the first move to snatch the shoe?”
“If Zheng Yan hadn’t refused to let me have the shoe, I wouldn’t have…” Yao Yunyun said.
Mo Yongheng retorted, “And this means that you are the one who made the first move.”
“…”
Mo Yongheng took a chilly glance at the indignant Tao Yunyun and asked again, “Who had the last touch of the shoe?”
Tao Yunyun felt aggrieved once again and replied, “I have already mentioned this earlier on. The two of us were grabbing onto the shoe at the same time, and I wouldn’t have fallen down if Zheng Yan had not intentionally released her grip. Brother Yongheng, Zheng Yan is at complete fault on this matter…”
Mo Yongheng said, “And so, you are still the last one who came into contact with the shoe.”
“…”
Tao Yunyun still could not figure out what had gone wrong.
Why was Mo Yongheng suddenly helping Zheng Yan, when he was in fact supposed to be on her side? Furthermore, he did it with such ample reasoning that she could not refute his words at all.
“But the Zheng Family and the Mo Family…”
Mo Yongheng had already cast her a look of warning as Tao Yunyun was about to say something else.
His lips parted as he asked, “The Mo Family has never said that the Zheng Family betrayed us, just because they set up another brand of their own. No others are in the position to poke into this matter either. I am only going to judge who’s the one who should compensate for this shoe today, nothing else. Do you understand?”
“Yes, I understand.” Tao Yunyun trembled all over from the lectures she had received.
As she met Mo Yongheng’s slightly chilly eyes, she hurriedly whipped out her wallet and headed to the cashier for payment.
Then, she ran away dejectedly with the broken pair of heels in hand.
Compared to the unresigned Tao Yunyun, Zheng Yan continued to stand rooted to the ground and she seemed to feel way more shocked.
From the start, she had assumed that Mo Yongheng would not help her.
She would be very appreciative as long as he did not give her a hard time.
However, the moment she heard Mo Yongheng saying, “The Mo Family has never said that the Zheng Family had betrayed us just because they set up another brand of their own, and no others are in the position to poke into this matter either”, her heart suddenly started to beat rapidly.
Her hands unknowingly clenched into a ball, draped by the side of the body.
It was as if someone finally understood the grievance that she had been holding in. She felt so touched that she was on the verge of shedding silent tears, just because someone was finally willing to say something to do her justice.
However, Mo Yongheng had turned around and left with his bodyguards before Zheng Yan and Nian Xiaomu could thank him.
He was just as cold and detached as when he first arrived.
This man seemed to be emotionless and cold-hearted…
It was no wonder people who had not heard him speaking would assume that he was mute.
He was completely different from a normal human!
After the delay, that was caused by Tao Yunyun, Nian Xiaomu and Zheng Yan were afraid that Yu Yuehan had been kept waiting for too long and they got ready to leave after they had chosen another pair of shoes.
They bumped into Yu Yuehan walking back to the mall just as they reached the exit.
Yu Yuehan’s eyes returned back to its peaceful look when he saw that Nian Xiaomu was fine. Tucking his hands into the pockets of his pants, he walked forward and asked, “Are you all done with your purchases?”
“Yeah, we are done. We met an annoying person earlier on, and that explains the slight delay. Were you worried?” As Nian Xiaomu trudged into his embrace, she looked up at him and obediently took the initiative to admit her mistake.
Even though Yu Yuehan did not acknowledge her question, she could feel his worry when she had caught sight of him from afar.
“Yu Yuehan, I must have done something right in my past life to have met you in this life.”
As the saying goes, a boot-lick is always useful!
She would certainly be safe if she put in nicer words.
Yu Yuehan curled his lips and seemed to be very satisfied with what she had said. Then, he lowered his head and kissed the corner of her lips.
“Please don’t overdo it, there’s a singleton beside you guys. Friends, can’t you be at all considerate?!”
