Chapter 120 - Fan Wars (1/2)

The next day, An Hao went to visit the Lei manor again with the aim to apologize to Xiao Ting. He did not want Lao Wang's trouble, not to mention if his father heard of him bullying a young miss it would be trouble. There's also Lei Yong to consider in the whole mess.

As for the issue with Lei Xing, he considered going to tell Lei Yong about the fact that the two girls he saw were his sister and her maid. But then after thinking about it, he concluded that Lei Yong really did not know about it. There was no reason for him to lie, unless they had done something so bad he felt the Emperor would not have let them go.

But no matter how An Hao thought about it, he could not come up with a scenario that would make Lei Yong feel the need to lie. In the end, he decided that he still needed more information to explain this if not they would just take him as a joke again.

Also, it was obvious Lei Yong was very fond of his sisters. He often lamented about missing out on their childhood, and he especially talked about Lei Xing who had apparently been very upset with his departure and they even exchanged letters often. An Hao even remembered that when Lei Yong was returning to the capital he was particularly excited about seeing his sisters again. An Hao did not want to haphazardly bring it up to him and end up accidentally stepping on his toes.

He also thought to discuss with his father to find out the results of the former investigation, but his father was even less likely to buy his story, he was apparently a very imaginative child. It was easier to just go talk to the Emperor, but then that also seemed complicated now seeing how the Emperor treated Lei Xing.

He understood that he had to tread very carefully and find out more first. So he came up with the bright and simple idea of Xiao Ting. She was the younger sister, not to mention the fact she spent more time with Lei Xing than Lei Yong, so she would know more about her than anyone. He would not know as he was an only child, but they say siblings are close.

With all this in mind, An Hao chose a gift on his way and arrived at the Lei manor. Lao Wang quickly showed up and narrowed his eyes at him. An Hao promptly informed that he was here to apologize to his younger miss and so Lao Wang smiled and happily led the way.

They had just began walking when they ran into Tung Mei who promptly arrived at their front. An Hao frowned and mumbled, ”Why is she here again?”

Tung Mei narrowed her eyes at him and threw the question back at him, ”Why are you here again?”

An Hao raised his head and smugly responded, ”You're a guest here too, so you can't question me on my intentions.”

Lao Wang glared at An Hao and An Hao looked up at the sky. Lao Wang then smiled at Tung Mei, ”The young master came to apologize to the younger miss for yesterday.”

Tung Mei raised an eyebrow and looked An Hao over and her eyes settled on the box in his hand, ”Ahh...I see.” She then reached out for the box and An Hao immediately moved it out of her reach and glared at her, ”It's not for you.”

Tung Mei snorted and then sighed, ”In that case, I'll take him to her. Lao Wang, I'm sure you're busy. You can leave.”

Lao Wang wanted to protest, but Tung Mei quickly said, ”Follow me.” And started walking away. An Hao sighed in annoyance but still followed. He was here to make peace so he had to bear with it, but he really did not like this girl, she irritated him on sight.

Tung Mei led him to a pavilion and then sat down, then looked at An Hao who was awkwardly standing there and said, ”Sit.”

An Hao frowned at her, ”I'm here to see Lei Yong's sister, not you.”
