This Has Become a Big Deal
Jun Yue could not find the right adjective to describe the feeling she had when she saw Fang Anyu. She deeply felt that all the books she had read over the years must have been for nothing.
Of course, it was not some “little deer crashing around in her heart” kind of feeling. After all, this was not an idol drama. She simply found it strange.
No one had ever given her this kind of feeling.
Clearly, he was dirty all over, covered in mud. The fresh soil placed beside the flower rack made it obvious what he had just been doing. Even his face had been smeared with mud. But Jun Yue just felt that he was very clean.
So clean he really seemed like a white lotus unstained by mud.
Of course, normally, this kind of phrase was something she used to curse people. But using it to describe the person in front of her was not excessive at all.
What kind of men and women had Jun Yue not seen before? But staring at Fang Anyu’s bewildered and panicked face, she rarely lost focus for a moment.
He looked too clean. His eyes were too clean too. And under the overly bright lights of the greenhouse, there was somehow an unreal feeling about him.
However, Jun Yue only lost focus for that brief moment.
Very quickly, she remembered that he had teased her. With a dark expression, she pulled him up and dragged him out from behind the flower rack, her tone unpleasant.
“You saw me just now, didn’t you? You saw me and still turned off the lights? Did you do it on purpose?”
The panic and confusion on Fang Anyu’s face deepened.
He knew this person was speaking to him, and she seemed angry. But he had come out in a hurry and had not brought his little notebook.
And…
He could not hear what she was saying.
Now this was interesting.
Jun Yue had grown up this old, and apart from the family members whose hearts were biased all the way down to their hip bones, no one had ever dared ignore her words like this.
Fang Anyu pressed his lips together and stared fixedly at Jun Yue’s lips.
Recently… he had been learning lip-reading.
It was just that his memory was truly not very good. He always forgot after learning. His teachers had already been changed several times. He was… too stupid.
The more anxious and panicked he became, the less he understood. Jun Yue also spoke too quickly. He could only read meaningless words like “you” and “I.”
Jun Yue glared at Fang Anyu, furious enough to smoke from all seven orifices. Her voice grew louder and louder. “Are you deaf? Or mute?!”
Fang Anyu could tell that Jun Yue was already extremely angry. But he could not understand a single sentence. Cold sweat was about to run down his temple.
Dressed like this, Jun Yue was clearly someone attending Fang Anyan’s birthday banquet today. His mother had said that it would be best if he did not appear today, and that he must not be discovered. That was why he had hidden in the greenhouse, keeping the lights off while working with the soil. Absolutely no one would have found him.
But…
He had meant well and done something bad. He did not know why this person was so angry, yet he had no way to explain. Seeing Jun Yue step forward in anger and jab his shoulder with her hand, she said, “Are you from the Fang family? A gardener? Speak!”
It was really because Fang Anyu looked too good. Standing here like this, no one could possibly imagine that he was deaf and mute. Besides, he did not even gesture. He just stood there stupidly and listened, but kept his lips pressed together without speaking. It looked exactly like he was deliberately ignoring someone!
As for Jun Yue, this was the first time she felt like she was a monkey jumping up and down, performing an entire monkey show for someone who would not even applaud.
“You…” Jun Yue leaned closer to Fang Anyu and was about to say something else when Fang Anyu suddenly reached out and pressed his fingers against her lips.
Jun Yue: “…”
She blinked, a little stunned.
Fang Anyu truly could not understand because Jun Yue was speaking too fast. His lip-reading teacher sometimes placed his fingers against the teacher’s lips to let him feel the movement. In his anxiety, he reached out and pressed his hand against Jun Yue’s lips.
Inside the little room filled with moisture and the scent of fresh grass, Jun Yue felt warmth on her lips. Her heart jumped out of her control. Fang Anyu even gently rubbed her lips with his fingertips, his face full of doubt.
Had she just been molested?!
This man… really had quite the nerve!
Jun Yue slapped Fang Anyu’s wrist away. She used a lot of force. She wanted to say something else, only to see Fang Anyu covering his hand, looking bewildered and helpless as if he were the one who had been violated.
Jun Yue: “…”
Shouldn’t I be the one looking like that?!
“You’re insane! Just you wait!” Jun Yue was so angry at him that she stomped her foot and turned to leave. But as soon as she turned around, her phone rang.
Jun Yue answered the phone and snapped irritably, “What kind of road did you point me to?! I ran into a pervert! Where am I? I’m in some greenhouse… probably the backyard. Hurry up and come here!”
She glared at Fang Anyu and threatened fiercely, “Just you wait!”
After saying that, Jun Yue put away her phone and walked out. According to the instructions inside, once she left the greenhouse, turning left would lead to the villa’s back door. But as soon as Jun Yue stepped out of the greenhouse and turned, Fang Anyu suddenly grabbed her from behind.
In this short period of time, Jun Yue had practically been driven mad by Fang Anyu. She roared, “What else do you want?! Let go of me!”
But Fang Anyu did not let go. Jun Yue struggled, while he held her arm and pulled her in another direction.
Over there…
The soil he had just mixed was drying there. There was manure in it too. She could not walk there.
Anyone who encountered someone as strange as Fang Anyu, pulling them away without saying a word, would be scared. Forget that Jun Yue was a girl — even if she were a boy, she would still be afraid.
Jun Yue did not only struggle. She grabbed her clutch and hit Fang Anyu with it. Fang Anyu truly felt the pain and released her. Jun Yue immediately lifted her skirt and tried to run. But the moment she turned, one foot stepped on a stone. Her already slightly twisted ankle immediately gave a sharp pain, and Jun Yue pitched straight toward the ground.
It was exactly the patch of mud Fang Anyu had mixed.
By the time Fang Anyu reached out to grab her again, it was already too late. As Jun Yue flailed around, she caught Fang Anyu’s outstretched wrist. But beneath her feet was not flat ground; it was soft wet mud. She failed to stand steady, screamed, and dragged Fang Anyu into the mud with her.
She fell facing upward, so it did not hurt. It was just that her long skirt was pressed down by her own body, and her strapless gown was directly pulled down to her waist.
Fang Anyu, meanwhile, crashed on top of her. As luck would have it, his face buried itself right against the rolling softness that had developed better than girls of her age.
Jun Yue was knocked into a muffled groan.
Fang Anyu, however, made no sound.
The light by the back door suddenly turned on. Jun Yue was in so much pain she could not even raise a hand to cover herself. Fang Anyu got up, lowered his head and looked once, then met Jun Yue’s gaze as if she wanted to eat him alive. He also saw many people running over from the doorway not far away.
Jun Yue felt a little hopeless.
Fang Anyu had always reacted slowly. And what he was thinking was completely different from what Jun Yue imagined. He did not know anything about taking advantage or acting like a hooligan. But he had also read many books and watched many shows. He knew about propriety between men and women. He knew that a girl being like this was definitely not okay.
So he had no other solution. He suddenly grabbed his own clothes. There was no time to undo the buttons. He directly tore them open, pulled off his shirt, and before those boys and girls reached them, covered Jun Yue with it.
Including her head.
Jun Yue could not describe what she felt.
Anyone lying on the ground like this, being straddled, and seeing the other person take off his clothes would go insane.
When Fang Anyu tore open his buttons, one even bounced onto her face. And when she was covered by his shirt, she had just raised her hand and accurately slapped Fang Anyu across the face.
Damn it. This pervert.
Jun Yue cursed inwardly.
And so, when everyone ran over, what they saw was exactly this scene.
Fang Anyu had no fabric on his upper body at all. His cold white skin was almost dazzling under the light. But what blinded everyone even more was that he was straddling someone who had fallen into the mud. His shirt covered the person beneath him. This scene…
No matter how one looked at it, it was not suitable for minors.
But when the person being straddled pushed aside a bit of the shirt and revealed her head, then spoke to Fang Anyu, who was still straddling her, everyone’s eyeballs nearly fell out.
Jun Yue had truly been made speechless by Fang Anyu. Really. In all the years she had grown up, this was the first time she had no temper left toward someone.
After Fang Anyu was slapped, he covered his face with that innocent look. Paired with the state of him not wearing a shirt, even though the one suffering was clearly Jun Yue, she somehow felt like she was the hooligan who had humiliated a pure white lotus.
“Big brother, have you sat enough?” Jun Yue pressed down on Fang Anyu’s shirt covering her and lay in a patch of mud emitting a faint stench, gritting her teeth. “Are you not getting the hell off me?”
When Fang Anyan saw his older brother like this, he froze for a moment, then hurriedly rushed forward and pulled him up. Someone who usually loved frowning so much was too shocked to even remember to frown. Only two words repeated in his mind.
It’s over.
He had never met the girl lying in the mud before, but from the phone call just now, he knew who she was.
She was the eldest young lady of the Jun family.
Fang Anyan often heard about the Jun family at home. It was said that in Qiuhai City, there were not two families that could stand shoulder to shoulder with them.
And that scene just now — no matter who saw it, it looked like a stinking hooligan bullying a young girl…
He looked at his brother in shock, then saw Jun Yue being helped up by her friends. That shirt had been covering her the whole time. Clearly, there was nothing worn underneath either…
This had become a huge deal.
After Jun Yue was helped up, she wrapped Fang Anyu’s shirt around herself messily. There were no two buttons left, so she could only tie the bottom. Rotten mud dripped from her entire body. She was in an extremely sorry state.
She glanced at Fang Anyan and Fang Anyu behind him, then gave a cold laugh. “Your Fang family really has a unique way of treating guests.”
After saying that, Jun Yue limped toward the gate.
By this time, the commotion here had also startled the adults. Mother Fang hurried over. Seeing Jun Yue like this, she almost slipped and fell herself.
She barely steadied herself and reached out to pull Jun Yue, only to be shaken off by Jun Yue in one motion. After coldly glaring at her, Jun Yue walked straight toward the main gate.
The Fang family became famous overnight.
There were all kinds of rumours. The most widespread version was that on the day of the younger son’s birthday banquet, the Fang family’s eldest son had forcibly dragged the Jun family’s eldest young lady away and attempted something improper. When everyone discovered them, the Jun family’s eldest young lady had been lying in the mud with her clothes dishevelled. It was even said that she had been hit.
How fearsome rumours could be, Jun Yue did not know.
She only knew that when she returned home like that, her grandfather’s astonished and furious gaze made her feel somewhat baffled.
He clearly did not care whether she lived or died, so who was he putting on that heartbroken expression for?
She had not really been done anything to.
Originally, Jun Yue had not planned to let this matter go. But everything had been…
After hearing that the Fang family’s eldest young master was deaf and mute, Jun Yue roughly understood that it had all been a misunderstanding.
She had also explained to Old Master Jun that it was all a misunderstanding.
However, this matter did not seem to end just because she refused to pursue it.
Because of her identity as the Jun family’s eldest young lady, public opinion leaned entirely to one side. The Fang family not only lost all face in the circle, but recently also lost several projects. After Fang Anyan transferred schools, his classmates deliberately avoided him.
And Fang Anyu…
After being scolded by his parents, he was dragged over to apologize to Jun Yue.
When Jun Yue saw Fang Anyu again at the front gate of her own house, his little face had narrowed by two full circles compared to the other day. His skin was so pale there was no colour of blood. Yet on his lips, there was a dry cracked spot where a little blood showed. One glance was enough to tell that his mental state was very poor.
If this were not broad daylight, Jun Yue would have thought she had run into a vampire.
