Chapter 344: Chapter 345: Jumping Into the Fish Tank_1

"Childhood memories?" Nan Feng shook her head, "I’ve forgotten."

"Since you’ve forgotten, why won’t you accept my Osmanthus Crisp? Are you still bearing a grudge because I caused you to fall into the water tank?" Mo Wenxuan asked again.

Nan Feng paused for a moment, then looked at Mo Wenxuan, "That incident... I didn’t want to bring it up again, but since you have now, I have to ask, what were you thinking at the time? Did you really want me dead?"

"No, absolutely not!" Mo Wenxuan declared emphatically, "I swear to God, I just wanted to scare you off so you wouldn’t always follow me. I tried many times, including warnings and pushing you down, but none of that could keep you away. Because of this, I came up with the idea to make you climb a tree and fall into the water tank, under Liu Chang and Tie Dan’s instigation. Even if Sima Guang hadn’t saved you, I would have."

Hearing this, Nan Feng looked serious, and then she chuckled, "So you tried many ways to shake me off, then why do you come to my shop now and bring me gifts? Isn’t my not following you exactly what you wanted?"

"..." Mo Wenxuan was taken aback and suddenly became nervous, "Miss Feng, I was just a kid who didn’t know any better. This past year, I’ve been tormented by my past actions and wanted to apologize to you, but I could never swallow my pride. Since we both brought up the past, can we clear the air once and for all? If you hate me, I’ll let you hit me; you can kick me, curse at me or even push me into the big water tank."

Just around the corner stood a large water tank, which the owner of the noodle shop used to store water. Nan Feng pointed at it, "You mean that one?"

"This..."

Although it was closing time, there were still quite a few pedestrians on the street. Would it not be too humiliating for a bookworm like Mo Wenxuan, who cared about his dignity, to jump into the water tank?

Nan Feng smiled and said, "See, you claim to apologize but lack sincerity. How can I forgive you? As for the box of Osmanthus Crisp..."

Just as Nan Feng was about to tell him to take the Osmanthus Crisp back, Mo Wenxuan stuffed it into her hands and ran towards the tank without saying a word.

With a "plop", someone fell into the water tank.

A usually gentle and elegant young man turned into a drowned rat after falling into the water tank, in a pitiful state. Also, it was late autumn, and the temperature was quite low. Mo Wenxuan sneezed several times when he got up.

Nan Feng stared blankly at Mo Wenxuan, wondering if he had read so much that he had become a fool. How could he just jump in as he promised?

Mo Wenxuan sneezed again and then shouted to Nan Feng, "Miss Feng, I’ve jumped into the water tank as I said. Can you...forgive my past ignorance now?"

"This..."

Seeing no response from Nan Feng, Mo Wenxuan thought his apology wasn’t sincere enough, so he immersed his head in the water again. After quite a while, he raised his head and asked, "How about now?"

Many people on the street were watching Mo Wenxuan and Nan Feng. Feeling embarrassed, plus with the weather getting colder, Nan Feng was worried that Mo Wenxuan would catch a cold from staying in the water too long, she finally answered, "Alright, alright, come out now."

"No, I want your forgiveness, not your sympathy. I won’t come out until you forgive me," Mo Wenxuan responded, burying his head in the water again.
