48: Misunderstandings Always Catch You Off Guard
Wu Liang never would have guessed that Ning Shuang and Milenty could chat so congenially.
Glancing at Ning Shuang walking excitedly beside him, Wu Liang suddenly felt a great pain in his stomach.
How did these two hit it off so well, just exchanging glances and then adding each other on WeChat? Encrypted calls??
But then again, it’s good in a way, at least he managed to send that crazy woman away.
“Wu Liang, is Miss Milent also a maid in your household? What does she do?”
Ning Shuang playfully elbowed Wu Liang in the ribs, inquiring about Milent.
Who would have thought that Miss Milent, of all people, would also be a maid in Wu Liang’s home? That guy really is something else.
To have so many beautiful maids at home, and if I’m not mistaken, there seems to be another stunning maid by Wu Liang’s side.
But that maid and Miss Milent are completely different; one is as cold as ice, the other as warm as fire.
And I don’t know if it’s just my imagination, but I always feel like that maid looks at me strangely.
It’s not just the coldness; it’s as if there’s something else mixed in her gaze that sends shivers down my spine.
“Are you really that interested in Milent?”
Pulling out his shoes from the hallway cabinet, Wu Liang sighed helplessly.
I don’t know if he has some misunderstanding about the word ‘trendy,’ but he just can’t understand Ning Shuang’s over-the-top makeup.
“Of course.”
Ning Shuang said, shaking her head and swaying, the passionate Milent had left a very good impression on her. Who wouldn’t love such a cool and pretty older sister?
“If you ever ride in her car, you wouldn’t think so.”
Wu Liang chuckled coldly. Milent indeed was a beauty, both in figure and face, she could be considered top-notch.
But Milent’s fiery personality is not something the average person can handle. I really wonder who the unlucky guy will be that ends up marrying Milent.
Speaking of which, considering Milent’s carefree nature and excellent physical condition.
An average person, even if they drank kidney tonics like water and ate leeks for every meal, might not be able to withstand Milent’s fervent onslaught.
“Um… sorry… could I interrupt you two for a moment…”
A timid male voice sounded from behind Wu Liang. Turning to look back, several burly boys stood hesitantly in front of him and Ning Shuang.
As if they had something on their minds, the leader of the group stuttered, appearing very nervous.
Ning Shuang pulled out a lollipop from her pocket and bit into it, casting a stealthy glance at Wu Liang beside her.
Could it be that this guy has stirred up some trouble again? It’s known that we’re short-handed right now.
If a fight breaks out, Wu Liang and I are definitely at a disadvantage.
“Is there something wrong? If you’ve mistaken us for someone else, we’ll be on our way then.”
Quickly assessing the difference in strength between them and the other group, Ning Shuang took Wu Liang’s hand, ready to flee the scene.
There’s no way we could win; they have seven people, all around 1.85 meters tall and muscular.
These guys are clearly students from the sports college. Although Wu Liang can hold his own in a fight, there’s no chance against these brutes.
We need to get Wu Liang out of here quickly. Just a bit further down the corridor is the school building, and surely these guys wouldn’t dare to make a move there.
“It’s okay, let’s hear what they have to say.”
With a slight tug, Wu Liang pulled Ning Shuang, who was about to leave, back to his side.
These people shouldn’t be here to cause trouble; there’s no malice in these students.
But then again, are these really high school students? How come they look like thirty-something gangsters?
Wu Liang was speechless in front of these muscular hunks, their pectorals well-developed.
Should I say it’s worthy of a game world? Drawing women as men, and uncles posing as students, they really have a knack for it.
“Excuse me! Please wait a moment, I definitely haven’t recognized the wrong person!! I just want to sincerely apologize to you!”
Hearing Ning Shuang trying to leave, the leading student hurriedly ran to Wu Liang’s side, speaking anxiously.
It was his mishap that caused Wu Liang to be hospitalized, and he should have come to express his apologies yesterday.
“Apologize?”
Wu Liang raised an eyebrow; he didn’t remember anyone needing to apologize to him.
No one had offended him in the past few days, wait a minute… could it be…
“My father had visited you before, but you were not awake at that time, and your maid… your maid was quite assertive…….”
“Actually, I wanted to come to you as soon as I heard you returned to school yesterday, but I’m a bit of a coward, so I……”
The man stammered, glancing back at his buddies.
If it weren’t for these buddies comforting him, he wouldn’t dare to come to Wu Liang alone to apologize.
After all, Wu Liang’s ferocity was well-known throughout the academy; he was practically a demon.
And his errant shot put, by some ill fate, hit this devil. When he learned that Wu Liang was hospitalized and unconscious, he even felt like dying.
Even if his own family was powerful and influential, it couldn’t compare to a fart from the Wu family, and because of this incident, he lost a good 20 pounds in just a few days.
“So it was your shot put that hit the mark, quite accurate, are you an archer too?”
“Let’s skip the apologies; instead, I should be the one thanking you.”
Wu Liang said half-jokingly, he indeed should thank this man in front of him.
If it weren’t for the other party waking him up, Wu Liang would have died a year later due to the plot, making him the most tragic transmigrator in history.
“Eh? Thank me?”
The boy was stunned for a moment, somewhat confused, how could he be thanked for putting someone in the hospital?
“In any case, don’t worry too much about it, I apologize for my maid’s refusal of your father, she was a bit impolite.”
“I’ve fully recovered, and I haven’t taken the incident to heart, so you don’t need to be so humble.”
Wu Liang smiled indifferently, presumably, it was Yao Shi who had refused this boy’s father.
But he truly didn’t take the matter to heart, after all, if it weren’t for this boy, he might have died without ever regaining his memory until the plot killed him.
“Wu Liang… I’m very grateful that you can forgive me!!!”
Upon hearing this, the boy’s legs gave out, and he knelt on the ground, tearfully grateful.
To receive forgiveness from this villainous young master was something he didn’t even dare to dream of.
It seems there’s been a misunderstanding about Wu Liang, who is actually not as terrifying as the rumors suggest.
“So, you don’t have to do this…”
Just as Wu Liang was about to help the boy kneeling and sobbing before him, his outstretched hands froze mid-air.
Seeing the disdain on the faces of He Xue and Han Yu ahead, Wu Liang suddenly felt as miserable as if he had eaten something foul.
“Um, I think I need to explain…”
