Shao Hui stiffened. He picked up the pillow on his bed and hurled it at Mo Qiang, "Go away. I know you hate me even more now." He was not as smart as Yin Fu nor was he as pretty as Xie Jie. He didn't have anything to charm a woman.
With his bad temper and his coarse attitude, no one would like him.
"I never once said that I hated you," said Mo Qiang with a sweat drop trickling down her forehead. She walked over to Shao Hui who was sitting on the bed and said to him, "Who made you have such a misconception about me, it's inanity to think that I will start hating you for something like this when I did not hate you when you stabbed me in the back like literally."
"It was the front," Shao Hui sniffed.
"Exactly," Mo Qiang said with a twitch of the corners of her lips, finding it hard to keep a straight face as the mer was looking rather funny with his swollen eyes and bulbous nose along with reddening cheeks. "Since I didn't hate you then certainly, I will not hate you now either."
"You are lying," Shao Hui sobbed as two big fat tears crinkled out of his eyes. He sniffed and snivelled even more before saying, "You accepted Brother Fu and Brother Jie as your husbands but you don't even touch me. You only do it when I ask and then you leave me alone."
"I am your husband but I live in this house like a guest. Do you even know how worried I get sometimes? That one day you will have enough of me and then ask me to leave. I obviously don't want to leave but if you were to tell me that you want to divorce me—what can I even do?"
Shao Hui wiped his tears with the back of his hands and sobbed even more, "Which is why I act even more carefully. I was so worried when Chen Han brought the matter of those pictures in front of me."
"I thought—I thought that you would use those pictures to get rid of me and bring Fu Qi Hong home in my place as you have always hated me for marrying you and taking a place which belonged to Fu Qi Hong."
Mo Qiang didn't know what happened between her predecessor and Shao Hui but listening to his babble, she more or less understood that the previous Mo Qiang was quite upset with Shao Hui marrying her as she could no longer marry Fu Qi Hong.
'What a loser. Did she really think she had the chance to marry that mer when she was doing nothing but wallow in her self-misery?' Mo Qiang thought as she crouched down in front of Shao Hui.
Even though she was not the one who had done those things to Shao Hui, Mo Qiang knew that she needed to apologise to Shao Hui. freewebnøvel.com
"Alright, I was wrong to do that," Mo Qiang said to Shao Hui as she reached out and held his hands in hers. "I shouldn't have said those words to you and I should have never raised my hands on you either, can you forgive me?"
"I will try to make it up to you in the future."
Shao Hui looked at Mo Qiang with a surprised expression on his face, his eyes carrying a few unshed tears. "You—you will?"
"But I am not—I have nothing to offer."
