Chapter 196 – Daddy Tucker
"You-" Mu Yuxi felt like she was slapped in the face. She could more or less understand that Yu Dong was looking down at her for abandoning Fang Chi. She was so angry that her guts turned green.
It was so easy for Yu Dong to judge her but if she had a mother like hers then she would have loved to see how she would have married Fang Chi.
And most importantly, Yu Dong wasn't marrying Fang Chi because she wanted to- No! She was marrying because she had to if the situation has been like that for her too then she too would have married Fang Chi like Yu Dong! What was so great about it?
The thing that was great was actually Yu Dong's desire to keep Fang Chi protected unlike Mu Yuxi who would think about her benefits first then her husband.
Yu Dong would look at her husband's happiness and comfort before making any decision.
It was true that Yu Dong was marrying Fang Chi out of responsibility but she was bent on fulfilling that responsibility till the end.
Something Mu Yuxi would have never been able to do nor would she able to give Fang Chi the respect he deserved.
"Yu Dong don't be too smug, don't think that only you have connections in the town. I do too!" snapped Mu Yuxi trying to assert some dominance over Yu Dong.
She hated how arrogant Yu Dong was but the thing she hated the most was the worshipping gaze with which Fang Chi was looking at her. Why? Why did Yu Dong deserve this?
It was painful for Mu Yuxi to accept that even though Fang Chi once loved her with all his heart even then he didn't look at her with that gaze with which he was looking at Yu Dong's way.
Why? What does Yu Dong have that she didn't?
Mu Yuxi was a spoiled little brat, her parents have spoiled her until her personality was kind of distorted.
She was never good at sharing her things with others even if those things were something that she no longer wanted. She would rather watch it destroy or get ruined than become someone else's.
It was the same with Fang Chi the reason she kept him hanging all along was to ensure that his reputation would suffer and no one would want to marry him.
Most importantly she made those half baked promises so that he will keep pinning on her but why – why was he moving on? Why was he looking at Yu Dong like that? That gaze should have only belonged to her.
Mu Yuxi was so lost in her thoughts that she didn't even notice that she was looking at Fang Chi blankly.
It was only when Yu Dong moved and stood between her and Fang Chi so that she was looking at Yu Dong instead of Fang Chi did Mu Yuxi realize what she was doing.
Though she felt awkward at being caught her heart was still annoyed at the fact that Yu Dong intercepted her and interfered between her and Fang Chi.
But no matter how enraged she was she still controlled her expression and scoffed. "Do you think that you are just that great that you can act like a tyrant in the village just because you have a few connections?"
Yu Dong had to do everything in her power not to scowl at Mu Yuxi, she didn't like the way the latter was staring and acting towards Fang Chi like she was his fiancée and Yu Dong was a weird lover that Fang Chi have found from somewhere.
Yu Dong was fairly familiar with that glint in Mu Yuxi 's eyes it was full of obsession and possessiveness and neither of them sat well with her.
Not willing to let Mu Yuxi get to her, she tipped her chin. "No, I am not trying to act like a tyrant. I am just trying to protect what's mine." She narrowed her eyes at Mu Yuxi not liking the way the other woman almost made a move when she called Fang Chi hers, well, well – look who was still pinning.
Not like it mattered it will never matter because Fang Chi was hers. He was her fiancé and future husband, end of the story.
"I will have you know that your mother together with the village's elders tried to corner my fiancé." Emphasizing on the word 'Fiancé',
Yu Dong continued. "When I wasn't here, I think that's a serious matter to begin with, because if a bunch of women started to round on Mers who were alone at home then what will happen to this village?"
"You -"
"Enough." Mu Xuan seemed to have finally come out of her reverie as she looked at Yu Dong with a complicated gaze then turned to look at her daughter.
"This matter ends here, she is right. We overreacted about such a small thing. There is no need to continue."
Mu Xuan's words come as a shock to both Yu Dong and Mu Yuxi who looked at her in confusion but Mu Xuan didn't say anything anymore and walked away with her head held high, though many could see a sort of gloom settling down on her shoulders.
Mu Yuxi looked at her mother's back that was getting further and further away before muttering a soft. "I will see your later." as she chased after her mother but not before giving Fang Chi a look with such a naked voracity that Yu Dong's mood swiftly changed from calm to agitated.
Though Mu Yuxi gave Fang Chi a look that was filled with nothing but longing the latter was too busy staring at Yu Dong thus Fang Chi missed that annoying gaze that Mu Yuxi was throwing his way but it didn't deter Mu Yuxi who made no attempts to look away from Fang Chi. She stared at Mu Yuxi and grounded her teeth in frustration-
Motherf*cker ..No … Daddyf*cker.
