Chapter 345: Chapter 346 Stop Soaking_1

Nan Feng found the whole scene utterly ridiculous. The once-arrogant Mo Wenxuan was now standing in a water tank, pleading with her for forgiveness. What could be his motive?

Was it genuinely a guilty conscience?

Or could he be regretting a called-off marriage and wanting to take her back?

Nan Feng decided that she needed to get a clear idea of the whole situation before forgiving him out of hand.

So, she gazed thoughtfully while continuing towards the shop.

Mo Wenxuan remained immersed in the water, note seeing any response from Nan Feng. As he lifted his head to look for Nan Feng, he found she was no longer where she stood, and he sneezed again.

What should he do now? Albeit, wait for her or go to the shop to find her?

Would his direct entry to the shop suggest a lack of sincerity?

Therefore, he decided to wait for her in the water tank.

Store clerks from surrounding shops stared at him in bemusement, while passing pedestrians pointed at him, making him feel more embarrassed than he ever had in his life.

However, he had already taken the plunge, so he couldn’t just give up mid-way. He had no option but to continue to wait.

Nan Feng pondered Mo Wenxuan’s motive behind this stunt whilst moving her belongings around.

Emotional matters are always more explicit to the bystanders and confusing to the involved parties. After thinking for a while, Nan Feng concluded that Mo Wenxuan’s motive was probably not because he liked her.

She remembered Wenxuan’s mother’s words: "Our Wenxuan is destined to marry the daughter of a noble family!"

"Our Wenxuan will become a champion scholar."

And then there was Mo Wenxuan’s aunt: "Being a wife is no longer an option for you, but you could become a concubine..."

Huh!

Then what was Mo Wenxuan implying?

He bullied her in the past, ridiculed her, and his attitude only got better after they entered the county town. Besides buying peaches for her once, he was nowhere to be seen. If he truly liked her, shouldn’t he be persistently hounding her?

The reality was that he probably just wanted her simple act of forgiveness. After all, he read a lot of Santos Books in the county town, and a Santos person wouldn’t allow their life to be tarnished.

So, was he here to atone for his past actions?

Nan Feng pondered while dealing with the matters at hand and, because her focus shifted to her calculations, she forgot about the situation outside until Feng Gu returned.

Upon her return, Feng Gu asked, "Sister Nan Feng, there’s a guy standing in a water tank outside. He looks very familiar, sort of like that Scholar brother who took you home last time."

Hearing Feng Gu’s words, just as she was about to finish her last calculation, Nan Feng smacked her forehead in realization: "How could I have forgotten about this?"

By her calculations, Mo Wenxuan must have been soaking in the water tank for nearly half an hour now. It was a too egregious oversight; even though he had grown somewhat taller, he was mostly neglecting physical exercise due to his academic pursuits. The long soaking could certainly make him sick.

Nan Feng hurriedly went outside. She saw Mo Wenxuan standing by the water tank, looking like a wooden chicken. A crowd had gathered around him, all urging him to get out of the tank. However, he was indifferent to their advice and only showed a reaction when he saw Nan Feng coming out of the shop.

"Mo Wenxuan, come out immediately. Don’t soak any longer," urged Nan Feng. The weather was chilly, and continuing the stunt could indeed cause some problems.

Young Miss Feng, as I said earlier, I’ll only get out if you forgive me," Mo Wenxuan’s voice trembling.

"Alright, alright, I forgive you," said Nan Feng. "You guys were just being naughty back then. As long as you didn’t intend to take my life, I won’t hold it against you. After all, it’s better to befriend someone than to make an enemy of them. Hurry up and get out."
