Sweet Rustic Love: Four Brothers' Wife

Chapter 723: Miss Wang, Can You Explain Yourself?

As the shop assistant’s voice was very loud, it immediately attracted Dongfang Ming’s and Ming Yan’s attention.

When they lifted their heads to look towards the source of the voice, they saw Wang Xiangyun and Little Tian walking towards them but they didn’t seem like they intended to stop. The shop assistant, on the other hand, was chasing them from behind.

“Miss, don’t leave...,” the shop assistant shouted anxiously.

Little Tian frowned as she followed behind Wang Xiangyun. She thought, how are we supposed to face Dongfang Ming and Ming Yan?

Ming Yan glanced at his master and he looked unconcerned with what was happening and only glanced at them for a while before continuing to read the poem in his hand. When Wang Xiangyun passed by, Ming Yan felt the thing he worried about might have already happened!

“Miss Wang, the shop assistant is calling you, so why are you walking so quickly?” Ming Yan blocked their path and looked at the two parts of the painting in the shop assistant’s hands.

He frowned and muttered in his heart, Isn’t that the painting we brought to get framed?

In response, Little Tian wanted to scold Ming Yan for blocking them, but just as she was about to speak, the shop assistant spoke up first.

“That’s right. Miss, if you want to leave, you still need to explain it to Mr. Dongfang Ming that you tore up this painting.” The shop assistant’s forehead was covered with sweat.

He wouldn’t have an income if he got fired. It was also not easy to find another job.

As he spoke, he even gave the two parts of the painting to Ming Yan. “Mister, the painting you brought for framing has been accidentally torn apart by the miss. Look...”

Although he didn’t know if Wang Xiangyun did it on purpose, he couldn’t say she did, as it was he who had brought her there. He also had to take responsibility for what happened!

When Ming Yan heard her, he looked at Wang Xiangyun and Little Tian with a face full of fury. “Miss Wang, can you explain yourself? Why did you tear it apart?”

Dongfang Ming was reading his poem when he heard Ming Yan’s voice. Only now did he walk over unhurriedly.

He glanced at the painting in Ming Yan’s hand then gave a neither anxious nor angry glance at Wang Xiangyun. It was as if he was inquiring about her and waiting for her answer.

Little Tian put on a bold face and said, “Ming Yan, what kind of tone is that?! Didn’t the assistant already say my lady accidentally tore it up? Why are you interrogating us as if you are so certain!?”

Although her lady did do it on purpose, what right did Ming Yan have to speak to her lady like this?

“What kind of tone? Your lady tore up master’s painting for no reason. What is wrong with asking for an explanation?”

As Dongfang Ming listened to their mutually hostile tones, he looked at Wang Xiangyun with apathetic eyes. However, hidden inside was anger and utter contempt for her!

He didn’t even need to guess to know it was definitely the painting of Liu Duo.

“Ming Yan, go take a look if the other painting has been framed.” Dongfang Ming looked at Ming Yan with an expression that asked him to stop trying to reason with Little Tian and Wang Xiangyun. It was already torn so he should just forget about it.

He didn’t want to embarrass her and just considered it the last time he had to endure this.

After he finished speaking, he prepared to get back to where he was before. However, Wang Xiangyun suddenly went forward and blocked him. “Brother Ming, why aren’t you asking me why I tore up the painting?”

Dongfang Ming looked at her beautiful face and instead of answering, he asked, “Why should I ask?”

He didn’t want to know why she did this!

When Wang Xiangyun heard him, she felt both angry and helpless. Why couldn’t she get his attention? He treated her so coldly and ignored her like she was a stranger. They were obvious childhood sweethearts in the past. They were even engaged! They were so close that they couldn’t possibly be any closer!

“Because I am your fiance. I won’t allow you to paint any other girl besides me. You even took it to be framed!”
