Chapter 200 – I Messed Up
Fang Chi tensed. Although Yu Dong was a good woman and was assertive, she can be faintly dangerous when she wanted to, she had barely raised her voice but Fang Chi felt that she didn\'t have to, just with her eyes alone she could change the emotional temperature around her, he could feel fear like never before rising in his heart as she set her gaze on him. From what he could understand was that Yu Dong wouldn\'t get angry, she will never lose her temper but if she lowered her voice then made she was so enraged that she had to restrain in her anger.
He knew she would never hurt him but the disappointment in her eyes sat heavy in the air around them, making his heart feel stifled and Fang Chi didn\'t like it one bit what if she leave him too because he was so disappointing? Biting his lips he lowered his head as well as his knees to beg for his mistake but just as his knees were going to touch the ground, a warm hand clasped his hand and pulled him back up. Startled Fang Chi raised his head and to his surprise, Yu Dong was staring at him with so much rage that he flinched " Yu Dong, I-"
" Just what the hell are you trying to do?" snapped Yu Dong feeling insulted more than ever, when did she give him such an idea that she will hurt a mer? More importantly, a mer who was going to marry her! She would never hurt a mer damn it, so why was his first instinct was kneeling in front of her just because she showed a bit of anger? It killed her to see Fang Chi having so little trust in him, that he thought that kneeling in front of her would appease her " You think I will hurt you? Do you think that I want you to kneel in front of me to please me? Just what do you take me for?"
" No, I -"
" You what?" raged Yu Dong, she was trying to teach him not to grovel but instead he went ahead and did just that then where was she supposed to put her face? " Are you an idiot? I am telling you that I will keep you safe which means I will not only keep you safe from others but even myself! How hard is it for you to understand this huh? I don\'t want my husband to kneel in front of anyone, not even me, so why are you doing the exact same thing that I hate? Tell me!"
" I…I just"
" You just what ?"
" I just didn\'t want you to find me embarrassing and leave me" Fang Chi shouted as he covered his face, he was ashamed .. so ashamed. Even though his heart was filled with warmth because of Yu Dong\'s, somewhere in his heart he felt wronged. He didn\'t want to lower his dignity either or whatever was left of his broken dignity but he had no choice! When he was with Mu Yuxi, the latter would often tell him not to embarrass her.
She was the most wanted bachelor in the village while he was a nobody, Mu Yuxi studied in the academy in the town while he worked in the fields. She became more and more profound and he was just a simple-minded mer, she left him because he was too much of a simpleton and couldn\'t stand next to the charming her.
He knew that Yu Dong was different from Mu Yuxi and that she didn\'t go to some dignified academy but she was a capable individual as well, with just her ability alone she was able to surpass all and become this successful. Mu Yuxi was capable and so was Yu Dong, both of them had high calibre it was just him who wasn\'t good enough for either one of them. He was still the same Fang Chi, the one with no self-confidence and severe inferiority when compared to others.
Yu Dong was so surprised by his sudden outburst that all of her anger was evaporated. She stared at Fang Chi and pinched the bridge of her nose " jeez, you .." she couldn\'t say anything anymore " come here" she pulled him in her arms and started patting his back. As she drew circles on his back, a wet patch formed on her shoulder. She winced inwardly, maybe she was a bit too much " I am sorry I shouldn\'t have snapped at you like that"
But that only made Fang Chi cry even harder as he hugged her and let out all the anger, frustration and shame that had been piled up in his heart.. Because he was so distressed he didn\'t even realize that he was hugging Yu Dong who wore an \' I messed up\' expression as she tried her best to coax her crying fiancé.
