Chapter 14: How Can I Swallow This

“Where’s Chi Yi?”
He asked Aunty Lin.
“Missy said that she already had her dinner with her classmate. She won’t be having her dinner with us.”
The man mulled over her words with a frown. However, he did not say anything more.
Late at night, Chi Yi felt her tummy growling helplessly. Finally, she could bear it no longer and thinking that her uncle should be asleep by now, she tiptoed her way out of her bedroom and sneaked to the ground level.
To be on the safe side, she decided not to switch on the lights for fear of waking up the man on the upper level. Slowly, she crept to the kitchen in the dark.
Luckily for her, the refrigerator was stocked with all kinds of food. She buried her head inside, and aided by the dim light inside the fridge, she grabbed and stuffed the toast into her mouth with one hand, while gulping down the milk that she held with the other. It was such a carefree way to enjoy her food!
Alas, the good times did not last.
“Why are you squatting over there?”
A husky voice boomed over from the door out of the blue.
She was munching on her bread when she heard the voice and froze.
At the next instant, the lights were turned on with a click and flooded the kitchen space.
She hastily hid behind the two-flap kitchen doors, trying to cover her face guiltily. “Oh… erm, I had my dinner too early and am feeling a little hungry now. So I came down to find something to eat…”
“Really?”
He squinted his sexy-looking eyes doubtfully.
Slowly, he strode over to her.
Her heart pounded frantically at his approaching footsteps. Finally, with her throat tensing, she let out a holler as he was about to reach her. “Wait a minute!”
“…”
Chi Zuxu stopped in his tracks.
“You… don’t come any closer…”
He did not proceed further and instead, inserted his two hands lazily into his trousers’ pockets, stared down at the spot where she was hiding and demanded, “Be honest with me and I won’t pursue the matter further.”
Looking at her stuttering behavior, he knew she must have done something to antagonize him again!
She was vexed; why couldn’t she hide from his searching eyes?
“Really? Will you not pursue the matter after that?” She kept her head low behind the fridge door warily and refused to pop her head out to look at him.
“Yes, for sure.”
“Then you must keep your promise!”
With that, she obediently revealed her head from behind the door.
His brows knitted into a deep frown when he saw her badly-beaten face. With a sinking look, he ordered, “Come over here!”
The girl, who had been hiding behind the refrigerator door all this time, could not help retracting her neck when she heard his command.
“Come over here!” His voice had turned a few degrees cooler at his next command and he warned this time, “Don’t let me repeat myself.”
He was not the patient type!
Unwillingly, she got up and dragged herself over to him. “Third Uncle, I can explain…”
“Alright, go ahead!”

“I didn’t want to get into a fight, really. But Li Chenyu, that b*stard, badmouthed me behind my back! I can disregard the fact that he cheated on me, but he went on to insult me. He said that I was an idiot and a fake. The girl he got together with was worse, she called me a b*tch and threatened to beat me up! How… can I swallow this? Uncle, your face… you look terrible…”
Her voice had softened into a whisper close to the end of her speech.
This was because she realized that the expression on his face had turned bad and ugly as she complained…
Did I say anything wrong just now?
