453 Chapter 453. Unintentionally Offended
Mo Su thought she was being frank and forthright, but she had never considered it carefully. If she acted rashly, she might end up doing the opposite! Mo Qian had not taken the initiative to talk to her about this matter. He had even stopped her when she had such thoughts. He was hinting that the time was not right yet.
That was indeed the case. Aunt Feng looked at Zhuang Xian’s expression and realized she had misunderstood her. She quickly tried to explain, but before she could speak, Zhuang Xian interrupted her.
“It seems that you understand what I mean. That’s great! I may not have spoken nicely, but I meant every word I said. Mo Qian knows my attitude and thoughts the best. If there is anything inappropriate, please, grandma Mo should forgive me. In the future, if grandma Mo has any questions, she can ask Mo Qian first. Since things have come to this, you don’t have to send me off anymore; hurry back! I’ll go back first!”
After Zhuang Xian finished speaking, she smiled slightly, glanced at Aunt Feng, nodded, and left.
Aunt Feng was taken aback by the sarcasm in Zhuang Xian’s words. Seeing that Zhuang Xian was about to leave, she hurriedly said, “Miss Zhuang Xian, you’ve misunderstood the old Madam. She doesn’t mean what you think! Can you listen to my explanation?”
Zhuang Xian did not stop walking. After hearing Aunty Feng’s anxious explanation, she replied without turning her head, “Perhaps I’m overthinking it. You don’t have to explain anything; I don’t want to hear it now. That’s not important. Don’t disturb my teammates ‘Sweet dreams in the middle of the night.”
When Aunt Feng saw the rejection on Zhuang Xian’s face, the words she wanted to explain were stuck in her throat, and she felt a little uncomfortable.
Zhuang Xian’s steps were firm and calm as if she did not care if her words would offend old Madam Mo and Aunt Feng.
Li Qin was sitting in the dormitory. When he saw that it was getting late and the lights in the building had been turned off, he took his coat and went downstairs to wait for Zhuang Xian!
As soon as he came downstairs, he saw his sister Xian being pestered by an old woman. He immediately said, “Sister Xian, you’re back! What took you so long? I was worried that you might be afraid of the dark at night, so I came down to wait for you!”
As he spoke, he glanced at Aunt Feng, following behind Zhuang Xian, and asked softly, “Who is she? Why does she keep bothering you?”
Li Qin had met Aunt Feng before, but seeing a lousy atmosphere, Li Qin tactfully pretended not to know her.
When Zhuang Xian heard this, she did not immediately reply to Li Qin’s words. Instead, she silently passed the first aid kit on her shoulder to him and walked back to the dormitory building, leaving behind an anxious and regretful Aunt Feng.
Li Qin sized up Aunt Feng before catching up with Zhuang Xian.
As she watched Zhuang Xian and Li Qin leave, Aunt Feng knew that she had screwed up this time and could not help but feel a little anxious!
The old lady had told her to test Zhuang Xian’s intentions, but she had to be careful with her attitude and ask about Zhuang Xian’s intentions slowly. She could not cause any unnecessary misunderstandings!
However, Mo Su didn’t know that her words had come true. What she was afraid of really happened.
This matter could only be blamed on Aunt Feng for taking it for granted. She was used to how the family did things and felt that in this world, there was no one their young master was not worthy of, let alone just an adopted daughter of the Zhuang family!
Auntie Feng had to admit that Zhuang Xian was a good girl. She was pretty, polite, and had unique cooking skills. She would never starve to death anywhere.
However, no matter how powerful she, Zhuang Xian, was, her status and background were clear for all to see. She was just an adopted daughter; how could she compare to a real lady from an aristocratic family?
Even though the old Madam was full of praise for Zhuang Xian and was eager to help Mo Qian settle into this marriage, Aunt Feng felt they were incompatible regarding social status. However, she could not disobey her master’s wishes.
She thought that since she couldn’t change the minds of the Masters, she might as well make things clear to Zhuang Xian. After all, with the Mo family’s background and wealth, who could reject them?
Zhuang Xian was good, but how could she reject a noble like Mo Qian?
