Chapter 39: Evading Responsibility
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
There were no outsiders in the house. The servants and nannies had worked for them for a few years and were as reliable as their family. The only one who was suspicious was her!
Wu Shu immediately guessed that it must be that b*tch with the surname Chi who complained to Li Qianming. Seeing Chi Yaoxi angrily walk towards her, Wu Shu was the first to complain. She loudly pointed at Chi Yaoxi and said, “Qianming, don’t malign me. I didn’t do anything. She’s the one making the desserts! Chi Yaoxi!
“She’s alone in the kitchen. The entire process of making the snacks was controlled by her alone. If there are any problems, you should be asking her!”
Chi Yaoxi stared coldly at Wu Shu, watching her find all sorts of excuses to act. It was really a loss for this woman not to become an actress.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Wu Shu thought that her words had worked and acted even more pitifully, “Qianming, you’re really too much. I only have time to come once in a long time, yet you still want to malign a good person.”
Chi Yaoxi couldn’t watch this any longer. She pointed at Wu Shu and sternly said, “What are you thinking! Chenchen is allergic to cashew nuts, you just want to cause trouble on purpose. You won’t even let a child off, how vicious!”
Wu Shu shot a fierce look at Chi Yaoxi.?It was all this hateful woman’s fault for not accomplishing what she wanted! She actually dared to scold her infront of Li Qianming. Come on then, I’m not someone to be trifled with!?“Chi Yaoxi, don’t slander me! You have to have evidence when you speak! What cashew nuts? I’ve never eaten or seen them before! How would I know that a child is allergic to cashew nuts!”
When Chi Yaoxi heard this, she was also a little stunned. Wu Shu did not understand Chenchen. Then did she know that the little guy was allergic to cashew nuts?
Just as Chi Yaoxi was hesitating for a while, Wu Shu seized the opportunity to approach Li Qianming and prove to him that Chi Yaoxi was behind all this.
“Since lunch, Chi Yaoxi has been alone in the kitchen. I saw a few nuts on the counter. I wanted to help her, but she rejected me.”
Li Qianming’s face was gloomy. He was silent and did not speak. Wu Shu continued to push the blame on Chi Yaoxi. “Chi Yaoxi just doesn’t want me to discover any secrets. I didn’t even see the nuts on the plate clearly. She knows the child better. She’s the one who poisoned the child!”
“You! Wu Shu, you’re simply full of nonsense! There’s no one else in the family, only you, an outsider! If anything happens, it’s you who did it!” Chi Yaoxi couldn’t say anything that was more advantageous to her. She knew that the more Wu Shu argued, the more it proved that she had a guilty conscience. It was just that she couldn’t find any proof.
The moment this woman, Wu Shu, appeared, she would not be able to rest in peace. This time, she actually dared to have designs on the little fellow. She was truly shameless to the extreme.
Wu Shu was still chattering non-stop to defend herself, pushing the blame onto Chi Yaoxi. Li Qianming really could not listen to her anymore.
His eyebrows were tightly knitted together and his gaze was cold. He impatiently glanced at Wu Shu and sternly said, “Stop! Get out now!”
Wu Shu, who was sitting on the sofa and trying her best to defend herself, didn’t understand what Li Qianming meant. Before she could finish speaking, she suddenly heard Li Qianming saying to get out. Wu Shu immediately shut her mouth and glanced at Chi Yaoxi, who was opposite her. She pointed at her gloatingly and said, “You! Why are you still standing there! You’re really thick-skinned. Did you hear him? He told you to get out immediately!”
Chi Yaoxi stood quietly on the spot, looking at her coldly, unmoved, her face showing disdain.
When Wu Shu saw Chi Yaoxi’s self-righteous appearance, she was furious. She stood up in anger, pointing at Chi Yaoxi’s nose, berating loudly. “What? Didn’t you hear what the owner said? He told you to get lost! Hurry up and leave!”
Was she still a woman? What a shrew.?Li Qianming felt even more disgusted with this arrogant and despotic Wu Shu. He no longer had the patience to listen to this shameless woman spout nonsense.
Li Qianming was worried that she was still too stupid to understand human language. This time, he directly pointed at Wu Shu and said sternly, “You, get out now!”
What?!?Wu Shu’s eyes widened in shock. She stood rooted to the spot, unable to figure out what was going on. Li Qianming’s hand was clearly pointing towards her.?Was he asking her to go out? Was there a mistake? After explaining for a long time, Li Qianming still did not believe her!
Wu Shu wanted to explain further, but Li Qianming immediately added, “Stop talking nonsense, get out now!”
Could it be that Chi Yaoxi had some evidence??Wu Shu still felt a little guilty.?Why was Li Qianming so sure of it to tell her to get out?
Chi Yaoxi! You’re awesome! Li Qianming, this man, had limited intelligence. He was coaxed by Chi Yaoxi, an actress, and listened to everything she said!?Wu Shu glared fiercely at Chi Yaoxi and snorted. She picked up her backpack and walked out indignantly.
Chi Yaoxi had expected this result. Even though she didn’t interact much with Li Qianming, she still knew that he was intelligent and principled when it came to handling matters. He wouldn’t allow that lying woman to throw a tantrum.
Finally, it quieted down. Auntie Wu, who was working at the side, heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, her master did not like that fierce woman and directly chased her away. Otherwise, her life would not be easy.
Chi Yaoxi went to the dining table to get some snacks for Li Qianming so that he could try if there was cashew in it.
Li Qianming ate a few pieces and Chi Yaoxi looked at him expectantly, waiting for his reply. She saw that the man’s face gradually calmed down and was no longer as cold as before.
“How is it?” Chi Yaoxi asked, hoping that he could confirm if there was the smell of cashew nuts.
“It tastes good.”
Chi Yaoxi was almost amused by the man’s words. She quickly continued, “I’m asking if you tasted any cashew nuts in it?”
Li Qianming paused for a moment and nodded. He couldn’t help but smile, his eyes glowing with a strange light. He had only cared about the snacks and ate a few pieces at once. He did not notice the specific taste.
During dinner, the little fella was very happy to see his daddy and mommy accompanying him. He even took the initiative to pour juice for them.
Seeing that his mommy had picked up some sweet and sour pork ribs, the little guy knew that his mommy liked it so he blinked his eyes hard and signaled his daddy to pick up some food for his mommy.
Li Qianming was watching the news while eating and did not notice the little fellow’s intentions.
The little fella was a little anxious. He tugged at his daddy’s shirt and reminded softly, “Daddy, Mommy loves sweet and sour pork ribs. Hurry up and express yourself.”
Li Qianming did not say anything. He directly picked up a piece of pork rib with the common chopsticks and put it in Chi Yaoxi’s bowl. He then picked up another piece and gave it to the little guy. His actions were very practiced and natural. Then, he continued watching TV.
