Bai Yu said no more. She took a tissue from the box and touched his arm. But Fu Yunzhe didn't even want to touch the tissue she handed him. He wiped off the blood with the back of his hand and sneered. "Isn't this tragic? You married a blind man."
"I've never thought that before." She didn't marry him for nothing. When she recalled the condition her father had promised her before she got married, she felt that her sacrifice had value.
Fu Yunzhe said sarcastically, "Is that so? How honorable of you."
Bai Yu empathized with him, so she wanted to say something to lighten the mood. "Right, Mom has agreed to let me install french windows in the room."
Fu Yunzhe barked sternly, "Who told you to call her 'Mom'? !"
Bai Yu looked at the razor in his hand, afraid that he might stab her out of anger. "Then, how should I address her? Madam?"
"Madam? She's not worthy!"
Bai Yu didn't want to dwell on this. "Anyway, someone will come over to renovate on Saturday. It might be a little noisy, so please bear with it."
"What if I won't bear with it?"
Faced with his provocation, Bai Yu finally couldn't resist speaking her mind. "I don't get you. You're not a stinky sewer rat. Why must you spend your days surrounded by trash and darkness?"
Fu Yunzhe thought his ears were deceiving him. He roared angrily, "Bai Yu! How dare you talk to me like that!"
Meanwhile, Bai Yu had left the bathroom. Fu Yunzhe relied on his hearing to leave as well and tried to seize her. Alas, he stumbled on the steps at the door.
"Be careful!" Fortunately, Bai Yu caught him in time. A faint fragrance wafted into Fu Yunzhe's nose as she got closer, causing him to be momentarily stunned. Ever since that car accident, almost everyone left him. Even his first love fell into the arms of his enemy. Now that someone who was willing to support him had appeared, she was just here for his grandfather's reward.
With this in mind, Fu Yunzhe calmed down. He struggled free from her support and said with a look of disgust, "Bai Yu, did you think that by touching me this way, I'll do something to you?"
Bai Yu was speechless. He was the one who tried to catch her first.
Having said that, Fu Yunzhe fumbled his way to the bed. Bai Yu took a deep breath and told herself not to argue with a disabled person. Then, she followed him. "Are you hungry? Butler Zhuang sent some food over. Do you want it while it's still hot?"
Fu Yunzhe sat down before asking, "What did he send over?"
"Just porridge and vegetables..." Looking at Fu Yunzhe's indifferent expression, Bai Yu figured this wasn't the first time this had happened.
"Bring it here."
With the porridge in hand, Bai Yu asked hesitantly as she walked over, "Do you need me to feed you?"
"I'm only blind, not crippled."
Bai Yu handed him the porridge and saw him receive it cooperatively. Before she could feel happy about this, he immediately poured out the contents of the bowl.
"What are you doing?!" If Bai Yu hadn't dodged in time, her feet would've been scalded.
Upon hearing her panicked voice, a slightly twisted expression appeared on Fu Yunzhe's face. "Taking out the trash."
Bai Yu suppressed her anger and said, "If you don't like it, just say it. I'll just take you downstairs to eat something else!"
"Hah, do you think they'll let a blind man eat at the table?"
A terrifying thought appeared in Bai Yu's mind. Was Lin Jing trying to leave Fu Yunzhe in this room to fend for himself? What should she do then? She couldn't care less about the life Fu Yunzhe used to have, but now that she was his wife, if anything were to happen to him under her care, the condition her father agreed to would vanish into nothingness. With this in mind, she pulled herself together and said to Fu Yunzhe, "I'm going out for a while." Then, she left the room.
As he listened to Bai Yu's leaving footsteps, Fu Yunzhe's lips curled into a cold smile. It was the same thing again. The servants who were once loyal to him would now curse him while scattering food on him, much less this newlywed wife of his. There, her patience had run out and she left, didn't she?
In the dining room downstairs, Bai Yu appeared just in time to see the servants serving delicious dishes from the kitchen while Butler Zhuang instructed them, "The second young master is bringing Ms. Lan over for dinner, so be careful not to mistreat her."
Second young master? The one rumored to have had his leg broken by Fu Yunzhe? As Bai Yu pondered, Butler Zhuang noticed her arrival and asked, "First Young Madam, have you finished feeding First Young Master?"
