Translator: Noodletown TranslatedEditor: Noodletown Translated
What? This bamboo teapot is a proposal gift for Lingxiu Xu? Qingfeng was speechless.
He finally understood why Lingxiu Xu was so upset when he questioned the authenticity of the teapot. It was a proposal gift to her.
Qingfeng suddenly felt bad for the beauty. The proposal gift was not only fake, it contained harmful chemicals which harmed her grandfather. She must be heartbroken.
As expected, Lingxiu Xu’s face was pale and she looked sad.
Shuqing Song’s grandson, Sitao Song, grew up with her. They were very close. She did not expect him to give her a fake teapot as a proposal gift. She wanted to yell at him.
”I’m sorry, I misunderstood you just now. I apologize.”
Lingxiu Xu suppressed her sadness and suddenly bowed and apologized towards Qingfeng.
Her words were blunt because she had a bad impression towards Qingfeng and thought he was a pervert. Furthermore, he claimed that the teapot was fake and smashed it to pieces.
Now that Lingxiu Xu knew that the teapot was indeed fake and that Qingfeng had saved grandfather life by smashing the teapot, she was both grateful and apologetic.
Faced with Lingxiu Xu’s apology, Qingfeng smiled lightly and looked at the beauty with admiration.
It’s okay to make a mistake as long as one knows to correct themselves.
Even though Lingxiu Xu was displeased at Qingfeng previously, it was because she did not know him. He admired how she could realize her mistake and apologize to him.
”It’s okay, as long as you don’t ask me to pay for the broken teapot.”
Qingfeng smiled faintly and joked. His words made Lingxiu Xu flustered and lessened the sadness in her heart.
Lingxiu Xu had said that the teapot was a priceless antique from the Qing Dynasty and that Qingfeng would not be able to repay it if he smashed it. She did not expect the teapot to be fake and worthless.
Yunchang Xu stroked his beard with relief when he saw that Lingxiu Xu had become happier.
He was worried that his granddaughter would be upset. He did not expect her to relax after Qingfeng’s joke.
Yunchang Xu was becoming to like Qingfeng more by the second.
Cough Cough!
Yunchang Xu suddenly coughed and said with a smile, ”The two of you are apologizing here. Have you forgotten me?”
”Grandfather, I’m sorry. It’s all my fault that the chilly air accumulated in your body and caused your shoulders and arm to hurt for such a long time.”
Lingxiu Xu’s egg-shaped face was filled with guilt. She felt extremely guilty.
She knew that it was all because of Shuqing Song’s proposal which caused her grandfather to suffer.
”Foolish girl, it’s not your fault. Even I didn’t expect this bamboo teapot to be fake.”
Yunchang Xu rubbed Lingxiu Xu’s head and comforted her.
He knew that Lingxiu Xu was not to be blamed. It was all because of the bamboo teapot. They still needed to investigate if the person who gifted the bamboo teapot knew it was fake.
Perhaps Shuqing Song did not know that the teapot was fake and obtained it from someone else. Perhaps he knew it was fake and intentionally gifted it to him.
No matter what the case was, a seed of doubt was planted in Yunchang Xu’s heart.
”Qingfeng, thank you for curing my illness and helping me find discover the harmful teapot.”
”There’s no need to thank me, President Xu. It’s what I should do.”
