Chapter 232 I'm Not Jealous of You Yet
"There's no need for Young Master Bai to spend money. I just came to see Nanchun." said Miss Wei.
"By the way, Nanchun, I bought you a cream cake, but I forgot to take it down in the car. Please go get it." Bai Xun said softly to Nanchun.
Nanchun's face lit up with joy: "Okay. Miss Wei, wait a moment, this cake tastes really good, perfect for afternoon tea."
The cream cake that Wang Zijin brought him last time tasted pretty good. Nanchun mentioned it casually last night, but he didn’t expect Bai Xun to remember it.
After Nanchun left, Miss Wei smiled and said, "Second Young Master, do you have anything to say?"
Bai Xun said in a deep voice: "You shouldn't have come."
Miss Wei pursed her lips and said, "Nanchun has done me a favor. Since I knew he was in Yangcheng, I definitely wanted to come and see him. Master Bai wouldn't be so overbearing as to not allow a fellow villager to come and see Nanchun, right?"
Bai Xun looked at her gravely and said, "You've seen it all. He's doing very well now. I hope you won't bother him or us again in the future."
Live your life well! Don't covet what's not yours. I'm doing this for your and your father's sake. Don't ruin the peaceful life you've finally found by being greedy."
Miss Wei stared at him with her eyes wide open.
She didn't expect Bai Xun to speak so bluntly, and there was a threat in his words.
She sneered, "Does Nanchun know your true self? The dignified and modest Second Young Master Bai, praised by everyone, is actually a double-faced, cunning man who knows how to exploit people's weaknesses and coerce and bribe them!"
Bai Xun curled his lips in disapproval: "No matter what means are used, as long as the goal can be achieved, it's good."
"Really? Then do you dare to tell Nanchun what you did? Have you ever thought about it? If Nanchun knew that it was you who had interfered and ruined our marriage, and then took over and replaced him, what kind of expression would he have? How would he look at you?
What's the point of threatening me? Weren't you the one who kept him here all this time? Second Young Master Bai, Nanchun has never seen what freedom looks like. When he knows what true freedom is like me, will he still let you deceive him, live under someone else's roof, and be this useless Second Young Lady?" Second Miss Wei said with a smile.
"Don't do anything unnecessary! You know the consequences very well!"
The corners of Bai Xun's mouth drooped slightly, and her whole face seemed to be shrouded in a layer of haze, which made her feel a chill unconsciously.
"Oh, how ridiculous! You talk as if you love Nanchun to death. But after only a few months of marriage, the eldest daughter of a wealthy family married you! You are heartless to begin with, so there is no need to pretend to be infatuated." Miss Wei said sarcastically.
Bai Xun's face looked extremely ugly.
"The truth will eventually come out." After saying this, Miss Wei Er got up and left.
Nanchun was carrying a cake upstairs when she saw Miss Wei coming over and hurriedly asked, "Why are you out?"
"The school still has classes in the afternoon. You are quite far from here, so I have to go back quickly." Miss Wei said with a smile.
"Oh, then... I'll let Xu Fei take you there. It's snowing outside and it's very cold."
"Second Young Madam, please go upstairs. I'll see Miss Wei off." Xu Shuisheng said.
"Nanchun, see you later." said Miss Wei Er.
"Hey, see you later." Nanchun waved to her.
After leaving the store, Miss Wei looked up at the sky. Snowflakes were slowly falling from the gray sky.
"Xu Fei, be careful on the road and drive slowly. Take Miss Wei to Zeren Girls' School." Xu Shuisheng instructed.
"Okay." Xu Fei felt confused when he saw Xu Shuisheng making faces.
Miss Wei was silent along the way, looking at the scenery outside the car window with a melancholy expression.
"Miss, are you the second young master's friend?" Xu Fei asked, glancing at her in the rearview mirror.
"No."
"Oh, that's the second young lady's friend. The second young lady is kind-hearted, generous to others, and likes to make friends." Xu Fei said with a smile.
"Second Young Madam? Nanchun is a man...why do you call him that?" Miss Wei was a little dissatisfied.
Xu Fei smiled awkwardly: "She is the second young master's legitimate wife, so that's how she should be called."
"Probably...hasn't anyone asked him if he is willing?" Miss Wei said lightly.
Xu Fei was speechless and regretted that he had taken the initiative to talk to her just now.
Bai's Trading Company.
Bai Xun looked at Nanchun who was enjoying her meal beside him and said, "Are you happy?"
Nanchun took a big bite and nodded: "I am naturally very happy to have delicious cream cake to eat."
"I mean... are you happy to see Miss Wei Er?" Bai Xun asked.
Nanchun thought for a moment and said, "Well, I'm quite happy."
Bai Xun's expression changed slightly and his mood became even worse.
Seeing this, Nanchun smiled and fed him a piece of cake: "Eat a piece of cake to sweeten your face. Your face looks like a bitter melon."
Bai Xun remained silent.
"Are you... jealous?" Nanchun blinked at him.
"Well, I'm jealous. After all, she has proposed marriage to you. If... I was a step late, you might not be mine now." Bai Xun said.
Nanchun grinned: "Even if I didn't marry you, it would be impossible for me to marry her."
In the previous life, his family was destroyed and his future in this life is uncertain.
How could he possibly get married?
He looked at Bai Xun.
"The engagement was just something my grandfather brought up. Miss Wei didn't agree. Moreover, after I found out, I immediately told my grandfather that I didn't want to get married," said Nanchun.
Bai Xun's face showed surprise: "Really? You... refused at that time?"
"Yes, I was punished by the family rules. Grandpa beat me up and I couldn't get out of bed for several days." Nanchun said with a sad face, "It hurt so much!"
Bai Xun hugged him in his arms.
He thought Nanchun was willing and willing to marry Miss Wei Er.
It was only because of his interference that the marriage failed.
Nanchun patted Baixun's back gently and said, "I'm really happy that she came to see me. It's not because I have any personal feelings for her. I was also responsible for the things she suffered and was forced to leave her hometown. Seeing that she is living a better life than before, I feel much less guilty.
Another reason is… because of my job as a tomb-keeper, I've had no friends since I was a child, and no one wants to interact with me. Miss Wei is one of the few people in the village who doesn't have a prejudice against me. And it's almost Chinese New Year, so suddenly meeting an old friend in a foreign land will definitely make me feel close to her.
Bai Xun hummed in a depressed tone.
Nanchun was delighted: "Gentleman, bright moon, Mr. Bai! You have so many romantic interests every day, and I'm not jealous! But you're jealous of me!"
Bai Xun kissed his ear and thought to himself: I really want to see you jealous.
