Chapter 602: I’m Fine
Ling was her husband. What made Li Chuni think she could order him about?
Furthermore, he was writing!
Although Ye Xuan could surely read the scales, Liu Duo did not even want to talk to him, much less get his help.
And Li Chuni was not familiar with Ye Xuan, so clearly she did not ask him for help.
Ye Ling heard his na being called. He cast a glance at them before making his way there.
Ye Xuan, who had been keeping an eye on Liu Duo, could sense her dissatisfaction with Li Chuni.
“Brother Ling, thanks for coming over to help us with the weighing.” Li Chuni smiled at Ye Ling when he arrived.
Ye Ling shook his head. “You don’t have to thank .”
He glanced at Liu Duo before taking over the scale and weighing the tomatoes for them.
Li Chuni was quite an attentive helper, for she said, “Brother Ling, let help you.”
Liu Duo found her smile particularly stinging!
When Ye Ling reported the readings of the scale, Liu Duo took up her brush and recorded the amount. Before she could finish what she was doing, she heard a scream. “Ah...”
Liu Duo instantly looked up. Ye Ling had fallen on Li Chuni.
Liu Ran looked their way too. The others who were working elsewhere in the house ca out to check on things. What happened? Who scread?
In a panic, Ye Ling hastily stood up, his handso face bursting red. He did not know how he had fallen, or how he had landed on Li Chuni.
Liu Duo quickly pulled him up. “Ling, are you alright?”
Several villagers ca and saw what happened by coincidence.
“I’m fine,” he said as he eyed Li Chuni, who had also gotten to her feet.
“Chuni, I’m so sorry. I don’t know what ca over...Are you alright?” Ye Ling murmured nervously.
The rain might have stopped, but the ground was still wet. Li Chuni felt around the parts of her body that had been drenched, including her back.
Blushing, she glimpsed at him too. “I’m alright, Brother Ling. Don’t worry.”
Ye Yang walked over to them. Ye Ling could tell from the look on his face that he wanted to know what had happened.
He frowned and shook his head. He did not know either!
He was just making a casual turn around when he suddenly tripped over sothing. The next thing he knew, he had fallen on Li Chuni.
The woman beside them thought she was whispering to Li Chuni, when in actuality, everyone in the yard could hear her words! “Chuni, if this gets out, how are you ever going to marry?”
The villagers who had just arrived remained quiet, but they looked from Li Chuni to Ye Ling again and again.
Liu Duo frowned. Although Li Chuni had not said anything, the woman’s words simply infuriated her!
Ye Yang looked at the woman too. He frowned, which was a rare sight.
Frightened, Ye Ling was afraid Li Chuni would demand that he bear responsibility, so he burst out frantically, “Chuni, I’m really, really sorry about whatever happened. I don’t know how I fell and landed on... I’m just really sorry!”
Worried he might fall ill again, Liu Duo and Ye Yang ca over to him. One gently patted his shoulder while the other took his hand and consoled him.
“Ling, stay calm. This is just an accident. Li Chuni said it’s not a big deal.” Liu Duo looked at Li Chuni, then at the other woman.
“Li Chuni, even though it was an accident, I would like to apologize on behalf of my husband. He should have stayed indoors and practiced his writing.”
And then she pretended to bla Ye Ling by glaring at him.
Li Chuni was not an idiot. She could tell what Liu Duo really ant. If she had not called Ye Ling to help, none of this would have happened, which ant she only had herself to bla?
