Marrying The Richest Man While Pregnant-Chapter 98 - Visit
Chapter 98: Visit
Before Xiao Chen entered the house, he felt a little uneasy for some reason. He rarely had moments of unsettlement. Perhaps it was because he had come to see Fang Liu for personal reasons, but there was also an inexplicable expectation.
Xiao Chen had looked at photos of Fang Liu many times, and after seeing Fang Liu in person for the first time, he felt calm and at ease. It was probably because Fang Liu’s aura was non-aggressive and gentle with a hint of unworldly naivety.
These were qualities that Xiao Chen had never possessed.
When he saw Fang Liu, his heart unexpectedly became calmer. Fang Liu’s appearance seemed to be no different from what he had imagined.
She resembled a peach blossom that peacefully bloomed. Fang Liu was bright and charming, but she was unaware of it. She was simply pure and innocent.
In comparison, Xiao Chen was like a piece of jade on the outside. His heart was dark and shut off from human emotion, as though even the brightest sun in the universe would not be able to penetrate it.
Xiao Chen smiled faintly and asked the person behind him to put down the gift he had brought.
“Young Madam Fang, I am Xiao Chen. I am sorry to have come to visit you so abruptly. Please accept this small gift.”
Looking at Xiao Chen’s gift, Fang Liu could not determine his true intentions.
Generally speaking, those who could come to the Mo family usually had a high social status. As for their purpose, they were either here to seek help from the Mo family or to plead for mercy.
Mo Yu was quick and decisive in conquering the business world. He was also a threat to many people. It was common for those people to come over and plead for mercy. 𝗳r𝗲𝙚w𝐞𝚋𝘯𝚘ѵ𝗲l.𝑐om
Fang Liu did not say whether she would accept the gift or not. She just politely invited Xiao Chen to sit down and offered him a cup of tea.
“I won’t accept a reward for nothing. I’m just the young madam of the house. If Mr. Xiao has business matters concerning my husband, it would be best to wait for him to return.”
Fang Liu cleverly avoided any trouble that might come knocking on her door.
Xiao Chen smiled faintly in his heart.
Although the woman seemed cute and naive in front of him, she was not foolish. That was a rare sight for Xiao Chen.
It should be known that women would easily go from one extreme to another. On the one hand, they would quickly behave foolishly if they were too naive, just like An Xue. But on the other hand, if they were too clever, they would soon become arrogant. Women would often lose the pure and innocent nature they were born with.
However, Fang Liu miraculously maintained a balance between the two extremes.
“Young Madam Fang, you are also the head of the Mo family, don’t underestimate yourself. Since Mr. Mo isn’t home, you can naturally make your own decisions. I’m not here to discuss any business matters. The Xiao family and the An family have some business dealings. Some time ago, the eldest daughter of the An family seemed to have offended Young Madam Fang in some way, so I’m here today to apologize on behalf of the An family.”
‘An Xue?’
The way Fang Liu looked at Xiao Chen changed slightly.
The man before Fang Liu was here to apologize on behalf of An Xue, so he must have a deep relationship with that woman.
Seeing the subtle change in Fang Liu’s eyes, Xiao Chen felt a little helpless.
He had to do what An Dong had instructed him to do. Since he had a relationship with An Xue, Fang Liu should be hostile toward him.
Fang Liu lowered her head and looked at the steam rising from the teacup. She said calmly, “Since the An family were the ones that offended me, there’s no reason for someone else to come and beg for mercy and apologize, is there?”
Xiao Chen smiled helplessly. “The An family is aware that they’ve caused trouble. Understandably, Young Madam Fang might not be willing to meet with the An family.”
Fang Liu raised her head and smiled faintly, “Since you know that the relationship between the two families has reached this stage, you should know that they’ve done something incredibly outrageous back then and are no longer worthy of my forgiveness.”
“An Xue has greatly offended and hurt me. If I was unlucky, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have survived, and I wouldn’t be talking to you right now. I don’t have the heart to forgive those people, and I won’t deliberately look for trouble with An Xue either. It’s just that there’s an old saying in ancient times, ‘Those who live by the sword, die by the sword.’ I’ll have to trouble Mr. Xiao to pass on the message.”
Fang Liu’s tone was stern yet calm. It was neither overbearing nor humble. She didn’t vent her anger on Xiao Chen but only explained her honest thoughts on the situation.
Xiao Chen pondered for a moment and nodded. “I understand. I’ve disturbed Young Madam Fang today. I shall take my leave.”
Fang Liu did not have any hostility toward Xiao Chen. Although Xiao Chen had visited in place of An Xue, he had not offended her at the moment. Fang Liu was not the kind of person who would impulsively vent her frustrations on others.
Fang Liu stood up and took a few steps toward the man. Xiao Chen then said politely, “You are pregnant, Young Madam Fang. There’s no need for you to send me off.”
Seeing Xiao Chen leave, Fang Liu did not take this matter to heart. However, An Xue had no way of seeking justice for herself. She could depend on her family to protect her, so it was likely that the An family would sweep the matters between An Xue and Fang Liu under the rug.
In the end, this world remained unfair. People who did evil would not necessarily be punished. Those with power could get away with almost anything, but those who were weak could only beg for mercy..
