Li Shengfeng went forward and handed the gift in his hand to Grandpa Chu. He smiled guiltily. “Grandpa Chu, I came to see you. This is a small gift. Please accept it.”

Grandpa Chu pushed the gift back and said coldly, “I won’t accept your gift.”

“Grandpa Chu, you must accept it. I should have come to see you long ago, but 1 was too busy and delayed until now. Please forgive me.” Li Shengfeng sent the gift forward again, but it was still pushed back. For a moment, the situation was extremely awkward.

Grandpa Chu said calmly, “Li Shengfeng, just tell us what you’re here for today. Our family is busy with business now and doesn’t have much time to talk to you.”

Business? What kind of business?

Li Shengfeng subconsciously asked, “What business does your family do?” n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Grandpa Chu said coldly, “Our family is in the ice cream bar business now. Do you see the house being built in the village? It’s mine.”

When Li Shengfeng entered the village, he saw a big group of people building a house. He was originally wondering who was so rich as to build such a huge house. He did not expect it to be Chu Rong’s house. It was surprising.

Grandpa Chu looked at Li Shengfeng and was somewhat annoyed. “Our family is quite busy. If you don’t have anything to say, you can leave.”

Li Shengfeng came back to his senses. This was the first time he had been treated so coldly since he joined the army. He felt upset, but since he was in the wrong to begin with, he had no choice but lower his attitude. “Grandpa Chu, 1 still have a few words to say.”

As he spoke, he knelt in front of Grandpa Chu. “Grandpa Chu, it was my fault. Please forgive me.”

This caught the Chu family off guard. He actually knelt down!

Chu Qingzhi raised her eyebrows. It seemed that this guy valued his career very much!

Grandpa Chu’s face was still cold as he mocked, “It’s not your fault. It’s our fault. It’s Qingyue’s fault to wait for you.”

Grandpa Chu slowed down. “Get up. You’re an official now. How can I let you kneel to an old man like me?!”

Li Shengfeng quickly denied it, his attitude especially humble. “No, no. In front of you, I’m just a junior. I’m here to apologize. 1 violated the oath I made back then. I didn’t take responsibility and delayed Qingyue. It’s my fault. If you want to hit me, hit me.”

Grandpa Chu smiled coldly. “You are being serious. How would we dare to hit you? It’s just that what you did is really disgusting. It’s not like Qingyue won’t marry anyone but you. If you had told us in advance, you wouldn’t have made her so sad.”

Grandpa Chu was really sad. “Think about it. If your own daughter encounters such a thing one day, what will you do?”

When Li Shengfeng heard this, he lowered his head. “Grandpa Chu, I’m sorry. Qingyue, I’m sorry. It’s ail my fault. I’m here to give you an explanation today. I don’t ask for your forgiveness. I just hope that you can forget about this matter and pretend that I don’t exist. Don’t be affected by me.”

The Chu family could not tell what he was implying, but Chu Qingzhi knew that he was here to draw the line. He was indirectly telling the Chu family not to reveal the relationship between him and Chu Qingzhi.

At this moment, Chu Qingyue said calmly, “You are no longer you.”

There were two meanings to her sentence. One was that she no longer liked Li Shengfeng. The other was that for the sake of power and wealth, he had no bottom line or principles. He was shameless.

Li Shengfeng understood the meaning of these words. His face instantly turned red… He felt a little humiliated.

There was nothing else to say. Grandpa Chu waved his hand in disappointment. “Li Shengfeng, go back. Don’t come again in the future. You and Qingyue have nothing to do with each other.”

He did not care about Li Shengfeng. His grand-daughter’s reputation was more important than anything else.

Having achieved his goal, there was no need for Li Shengfeng to stay. He got up. “Grandpa Chu, Granny Chu, Uncle Chu, Aunt Chu, Qingyue, I’m sorry. It’s all my fault. Take care.”

With that, he quickly turned around and left.

Chu Qingyue said, “Wait.”

Li Shengfeng stopped and frowned. He turned around and asked, “Is there anything else?”

Chu Qingyue picked up Li Shengfeng’s gift and stuffed it in his hand. She looked at Li Shengfeng’s eyes and said, “This is yours. Our family doesn’t want it. Take it with you.”

Li Shengfeng was extremely embarrassed. Then, he did not stay any longer and quickly walked away.

Chu Qingzhi originally wanted to cast a spell on Li Shengfeng that would make him unlucky. She felt that it would be fun. However, after seeing that Li Shengfeng would have bad luck anyway, she didn’t make a move. There was no need for her to do anything. Li Shengfeng would soon suffer the backlash of karma.

The central room was silent for a while. Grandpa Chu comforted, “Qingyue, it’s all over. Li Shengfeng has also come to apologize. Let this matter go.”

Chu Qingyue nodded gently. “Grandpa, 1 know.”

Li Qingyu walked over and held Chu Qingyue’s hand. “Qingyue, go back to your room and rest for a while.”

Chu Qingyue said, “Mother, I want to go to work.”

Li Qingyu said worriedly, “Don’t worry about the work. Rest for a day and you can go when you are in a good mood, okay?”

Chu Qingyue shook her head. “Mother, I want to go.”

Chu Qingzhi said, “Mother, I’ll accompany Second Sister to the county city. On the way, 1’11 comfort her. She’ll be fine.”

With Chu Qingzhi around, Li Qingyu was relieved. She agreed. “Qingzhi, tell Qingyue to move on.”

Chu Qingzhi nodded. “Okay.”

Third Uncle’s eldest brother, Chu Lianghong, shouted in surprise, “Aiyo, what a miracle!”

Third Uncle drove his donkey cart to the foot of the mountain to get water. When he heard this, he stopped. “What happened?”

Chu Lianghong pointed at his sugarcane field. “Chu Laipi and Chu Peipei are actually watering my sugarcane field. Do you know?”

Third Uncle was also very surprised. “Did you say they watered your sugarcanes? Haha, you must be joking with me. It’s more like they ate it, right?”

Chu Lianghong said, “They’re really watering it. I didn’t believe it either in the beginning, so 1 stood at the side and watched for a while. They’re indeed watering it, and more than half of it has already been watered.”

Third Uncle looked over at the sugarcane field and pondered. “Have they changed?”

Chu Lianghong said, “I don’t know. 1 went over to ask them, but they chased me away and told me not to disturb their work.”

Third Uncle was puzzled. “That’s strange.”

Chu Lianghong waved his hand. “Ignore them. In any case, they’re not stealing sugarcane to eat.”

Third Uncle joked, “I’m afraid they’re planning to raise your sugarcane before eating it.”

Chu Lianghong’s hand paused. “No way.”

Third Uncle smiled and said, “Whether they will or not, you can’t stop them. It’s better to let them eat a few than to destroy them all. Let them be. They won’t be able to eat much anyway.”

Chu Lianghong said, “That makes sense..”
