Chapter 409 He is cat like.
Yu Dong returned home with Fang Chi, the two of them didn't speak much because firstly they were tired and secondly, there was so much going on in their heads that they couldn't think of anything. Fang Chi was worried about Xiao Hua, though he wanted the latter to find his happiness on one hand but at the same time he didn't want to share the love that his wife has for him, it was already shared down to crumbs between four mers if there was another one and someone as obnoxiously loud as Xiao Hua, then what will happen to him?From the looks of it, Xiao Hua seems to be a shrew and if he wanted then he would definitely fight for his life for the sake of getting Yu Dong's attention, and he —- he can't even hit a fly! So, how will he fight Xiao Hua? The others maybe Chen Mi will be able to do that but what about the rest? For the first time in his life, Fang Chi was regretting not knowing how to fight.
" Careful," said Yu Dong as she caught Fang Chi with her arm outstretched when he almost stumbled into the small hole on the side of the Village Road. " Chi, what are you thinking so hard about that you didn't even see this hole? What would have happened if your foot got hooked in it?"
' I am thinking about how to fight for favour', thought Fang Chi but he just smiled and shook his head. " I was just thinking about what happened with Brother Hua, it's such a pity that he was stalked and then attacked like that, I mean … How scared he must have been after all of that?"
Yu Dong hummed as she interlocked her fingers with Fang Chi, to avoid him stumbling into another pothole.

" I am not saying that he is the one at fault but he should have come straight to me instead of letting the matter fester like this, it's not like I would have turned him away, no matter what was going on with us. Of course, I would have been angry but not at him —- at Chen Ying for troubling me when I was already frustrated enough, but of course, I would have dealt with her nonetheless. I don't get what's going on in Xiao Hua's head these days."
He has been avoiding her that was something that she understood but why exactly, she couldn't make head or tails about it. It wasn't that it never occurred to her there was a chance that Xiao Hua might have something for her but then she threw the thought away when she saw him laugh his butt off the last time she choked on her overly salty drink.
It was then that she realised that if he had any feelings for her then it was—- wishing that she choked in her sleep.
And that wasn't all, these days when she visited the bar, the narrowed gaze with which he looks at her was just as hateful as his feelings for her. Every time she steps into her own bar —- he will roll his eyes, take several steps back and start muttering under his breath, she was yet to make out what he speaks with such a rapid 'hopaa hah hoo'. That was what it sounded to her because of his speed talking.
" You seem to be worried about him?" asked Fang Chi as he stepped inside the house and tucked a strand of his hair behind his ear as he looked at Yu Dong trying to decipher what was her 'feelings' towards Xiao Hua.
" Of course, I will," she said as she tousled Fang Chi's hair just to tease him and sure enough she heard him whine a second later. Chuckling, she placed her hand down and added, " He is my responsibility, when I bought him from Xiang Bei, I promised him that I will give him a better life but if he is being stalked and assaulted like that, then isn't it a slap to my promise and face?"
" Well, that's true." Fang Chi was a bit relieved sensing that Yu Dong didn't seem to have much thought about Xiao Hua at the moment. He hoped that it will remain the case until he gives birth because he finally got her to himself and didn't want to share her so soon with someone else.
The two of them headed to the bedroom and Yu Dong started changing her clothes, seeing her strip so casually in front of him, Fang Chi blushed. " You… why didn't you tell me that you wanted to change? I would have waited outside."
Yu Dong frowned as she donned another loose shirt. "Why? It's not like you haven't seen anything before?"
" I .." he was dumbstruck for a moment before he shook his head. " I can never win against you." After saying that he picked up his night clothes and went out to change into Shen Li's room.

Once he was Yu Dong walked to the bed and thought about what happened today and how Xiao Hua refused to come to her even when he was in trouble, after she thought it through —-she realised that no matter what the reason was, she was still upset about it.
As Fang Chi walked inside the bedroom and hung his clothes on the hook on the wall, she finally spoke with a frown, " You know it really annoys me that he didn't come to me."
Fang Chi who was hanging his clothes up, felt his heart jump to his throat and turned around in a hurry. He just left for two minutes, what kind of epiphany did she have in just mere seconds?
Swallowing hard, he asked, " Why? Why do you care so much?"
"It's like——" she motioned with her hands as if she couldn't make out what she wanted to say and was finding it difficult.
"It's like?"
"It's like my cat has gotten angry with me."
Fang Chi: "..." ?? Sorry, come again, please?
