Chapter 333 A brute. Yu Dong didn't say anything in response to Qiao Sha's questions, what was she supposed to say? The reason her husbands were so close with one another was simple, they went through strifes and struggles together while the original Yu Dong was too incapable to take care of them.
Unlike Zhou Ming and Jiang Fenhua who were raised in families that were willing to pamper them. The two didn't suffer through any troubles together and most likely they were the ones who were causing trouble for each other, so how could they get along with each other?
Her husbands on the other hand had to go through life and death situations while supporting each other, of course, they will treat each other well, because when Yu Dong couldn't save them, the three were next to each other to share their woes as for Fang Chi, he too had his own struggles and knew how to be grateful for everything he has now —— he was content with his current life and wasn't greedy enough to hope for more.
Zhou Ming and Jiang Fenhua on the other hand look like they were nowhere content with the life they were leaving at the moment, so how can they get along with each other?
She smiled awkwardly and looked at Qiao Sha who was looking at her with anticipation not knowing what she should say to the latter.
Seeing that Yu Dong was in an awkward spot, Song Yixu stepped forward and pulled Qiao Sha back by her arm with an exaggerated eye roll. " What are you doing, asking such a question to Dong Dong? Unlike you, she dotes on her husbands equally, of course, they will get along with each other. It's not like they have to fight against each other to get her attention, how can you even compare your situation with hers?"
Qiao Sha's shoulders drooped as she sighed. " Honestly, do you think that I ignore Fenhua because I want to? Don't you know how he snuck into my bed?"
Song Yixu pursed her lips and shrugged. " If you want to act like this why do you even bother yourself by asking others about such questions, it's not like you are going to follow their advice?"
" You…"
This 'you' was much more aggressive than any 'you' that Qiao Sha has said till now. Yu Dong was worried that a fight would break between the two on the first day of the opening of her shop, so she immediately interjected and motioned to the VIP room. " Ah, lady Song, Marquis Qiao why don't you follow me? Your VIP room is ready, why not have a good time and taste the new wines and cocktails that I introduced in the bar?"
Only then did the two women step away from each other and walked after Yu Dong who secretly heaved a sigh of relief. What a close call, if she was a step too slow, fists would have been thrown.
Yu Dong was having a hard time and Shen Li and the others weren't having a good time either. As soon as Zhou Ming arrived at the second floor which was specially reserved for mers, he swept a glance at the surroundings and nodded at the classy and chic interior.
Though many mers loved the vivid and lacy things that were all cute and snuggly, Zhou Ming came from a military family, though he wasn't what others would call 'tomboyish' his tastes were a bit different from other mers, he didn't like 'cute' things but something that was a lot more fine and baronial.
Thus, this bar that was designed while keeping 'gender neutrality' in mind was much more to his liking.
" Brother Mi, I have to say that you all have done great work," said Zhou Ming appreciatively as he smiled elegantly at Chen Mi who was guiding him to his private room.
Chen Mi heard his praise and smiled like a rose blooming in a desert, if Yu Dong was here, she would have dragged him to the backroom and would have warned him not to show such a smile to others but unfortunately, she wasn't here and Zhou Ming who was smiled at was a bit dazzled by Chen Mi. " That's right, my wife and mother were the ones who worked for months designing this bar. It seems that their long discussion and quarrels finally came to fruition, with so many good reviews, now we can rest assured that we did a good job."
Yu Dong didn't know any highly skilled wood craftswoman other than Mother Chen, who happened to be her mother in law. Though Chen Mi said that the two of them quarrelled, it was more like a one-sided argument where Yu Dong was in a rather disadvantageous situation.
Zhou Ming blinked his eyes and looked at Chen Mi who was happily smiling and pointing at the wooden screens that were set up in front of each table so that each mer who booked a table at their bar could have a 'me' time without anyone disturbing him.
Though Chen Mi was describing how his mother and Yu Dong came up with the wooden screens' exquisite designs, Zhou Ming's attention was on his smile. He couldn't even remember the last time he smiled so freely after he married Qiao Sha, not even a year passed when Jiang Fenhua entered through the threshold.
Ever since his careless smiles vanished from his lips.
And maybe God sent Jiang Fenhua to test his patience because, at this very moment, Concubine Jiang who was following behind him suddenly chimed in. " That's right, Brother Mi. Your family has done a great job, this elegant furnishings are totally in alignment with Brother Zhou's taste."
Zhou Ming clenched his teeth, he was born and raised in an aristocratic family, how could he not understand the underhanded meaning of Jiang Fenhua's words? Unlike him who liked monotonous things, Jiang Fenhua was one of those mers who loved 'cute' and ' pink' things the one that was more acceptable to the mers in the current society.
In short, the bastard was low key calling him a 'brute'!
