Fang Chi finally heaved a sigh of relief, turns out that Chu Chang wasn't here to ask him to forgive Mu Yuxi. But when he looked at the property papers, he suddenly felt like someone was throwing a hot potato in his hands, what was he going to do with this shop front? He didn't have any talent for business, at most he was good at gardening and raising flowers but other than that there were no other skills he knew about. " Chu Chang, I know you mean well but I can assure you that I don't need this shop. I don't even know how to write business."

  The mer in their country weren't allowed to study in an academy, this privilege was only given to men and women——the mers being the inferior gender, weren't allowed to study or leave the house. Fang Chi only knew a few extra words and how to calculate the monthly budget of his house. Other than that he had no idea how to take care of a business.

  "It's fine, your wife is an excellent woman she will know what she needs to do with the shop." said Chu Chang, however no matter what Chu Chang said, Fang Chi, didn't take the papers that he was holding, in the end, he placed the papers on top of the table as he said, " You don't have to think too much about it, I am not here to take advantage of you or anything. Nor am I trying to pit you, I only came to apologise because I know how much Mu Yuxi has wronged you, so you don't have to stay on guard with me——"

  "Daddy, this is really sweet. Ran Ran likes it." Chu Chang was still in the middle of his apology speech when Mu Ran tugged on his sleeves and pointed at the empty bowl of fruits. From her messy hands and the berry juice that was coating her mouth, it was clear who the culprit was behind eating all the strawberries and blueberries.

  Chu Chang's face turned awkward as he looked at the four mers who were just as shocked as him. They started talking just five minutes ago and yet this girl already finished eating a bowl full of strawberries and blueberries in just five minutes! What a great appetite!

  "I am really sorry about this."Chu Chang sincerely apologised before turning to look at Mu Ran and lightly scolded, " Ran Ran, you can't just eat anything you want, at least take permission before eating, these belonged to this nice uncle here and you ate them all."

  Mu Ran also knew that she was in the wrong, but the fruits were so appealing that she couldn't stop herself and ate the red one. After she finished eating the red one, the greedy monster in her stomach roared to life and she once again snatched one fruit from the bowl and before she knew it, she finished everything. She bowed her head in embarrassment as she wholeheartedly apologised, " I am sorry, uncle. I liked them very much and ate everything."

  Fang Chi would naturally not quibble with a child. "It's alright, if you liked them then there is no need to apologise. But do remember not to take delicious things from strangers in the future."

  Seeing that Fang Chi wasn't angry, Mu Ran heaved a sigh of relief and even Chu Chang's stiff face relaxed. He clasped Mu Ran's wrist and stood up. " then I will see you around, Fang Chi."

  After saying his goodbye, Chu Chang left. He didn't even take the property papers with him.

  Fang Chi who became the boss of the shop all of a sudden stared at the papers and then turned to Shen Li. " Brother Li, in any case —can you put it away where I can't see it?"

  Yu Dong was dragged around the courtyard with an extremely excited Aunt Wang. She didn't even know how many times she has to bottom-up with the villagers today, however by the time the wedding banquet ended, Yu Dong was so drunk that she couldn't even remember her name. Even with her spiritual energy working hard and fast to make her sober, Yu Dong was still stumbling. And when she turned around to go back inside after sending the guests away, she nearly fell on her face because she tripped over a rock, thankfully she managed to catch herself on time.

  " Shit, I shouldn't have drank so much," said Yu Dong as she steadied herself. Then slowly walked inside the house with fumbling steps, thankfully her spiritual energy was working fast and she was slowly starting to get sobered up, if not —— Fang Chi would be heartbroken.

  However, as she stumbled inside the house and somehow managed to walk inside her room, Yu Dong stopped and took a deep breath. As soon as she took three steps inside the room, the figure sitting on the bed raised his head. A smile crept over her face as she strode forward and hooked her fingers in the veil of the person who was sitting on the bed. " Were you waiting for me?"

  The figure on the bed nodded as he shyly fiddled with his fingers. Yu Dong's smile brightened as she lifted the veil off Fang Chi's head. The red veil swiftly skimmed over Fang Chi's head revealing his face that was flushed vibrantly. He blinked his phoenix eyes at Yu Dong with a shy smile playing on his face. " You are drunk."

  Yu Dong coughed, maybe she should have washed before coming inside. She raised her arm and took a sniff, Uhm, she did smell of alcohol, what a sin. " Wait a bit, I will go and wash myself. I too think that the scent is unbearable."

  Her words were swift and concise since she was in a hurry but just as she turned around— a pair of hands circled around her waist and pulled her back.

  " Don't go," said Fang Chi as he hugged her from behind. " I don't mind the scent of wine, so stay with me."
