The Apocalypse of the Book: So What If I'm Just a Cannon Fodder? I Can Still Have Fun

7: Clear up the misunderstandingSu Mianmian felt that Butler Li was a bit too enthusiastic. She smiled at him shyly and casually said, ”I’ll eat whatever’s available, no need to make anything extra.”

She thought it was too much trouble to ask someone to make something else.

In her previous world, she was just an ordinary person. When she lived with her grandparents in the countryside as a child, she had eaten all sorts of things. She declared that she wasn’t picky.

When Butler Li heard Su Mianmian’s considerate words, he almost shed tears of old age.

A while ago, Su Mianmian had caused them a lot of trouble, not just with food, but also with clothes and even her movements; she was extremely fussy.

Comparing the current Su Mianmian to the previous Su Mianmian, Butler Li practically adored the current Su Mianmian.

He hoped the current Su Mianmian would stay forever.

Su Mianmian, unaware of Butler Li’s thoughts, indicated that she was truly hungry. Just now, her stomach rumbled again.

This was the third time... Su Mianmian felt like she was going to die of embarrassment.

She didn’t know if Butler Li had heard it, but she was already so awkward that she wanted to find a crack in the floor and crawl into it.

Perhaps due to his overwhelming happiness, Butler Li didn’t notice Su Mianmian’s unusual behavior. He enthusiastically led her to the dining room and personally arranged a very lavish breakfast for her.

When Su Mianmian saw so much delicious breakfast on the table, she almost couldn’t control herself from letting her true nature show.

Fortunately, at the last moment, she realized who she was now, otherwise, she might have started eating with her hands.

Su Mianmian managed to finish breakfast under Butler Li’s eager gaze. As soon as she finished, she used the excuse that she still needed to talk to Shi Xu about something and ran off.

Hearing her say that, Butler Li looked at her retreating back with a worried expression, continuously praying that the two of them wouldn’t argue.

It would be best if they reconciled quickly.

The Old Residence was already aware of their situation.

Butler Li was very worried about what measures they might take if they found out.

He couldn’t manage these things. He shook his head, feeling that he was worrying for nothing.

If the sky fell, Shi Xu would hold it up. Butler Li trusted Shi Xu greatly.

Su Mianmian ran back to her room. As soon as she entered and before her heart, which was pounding from running, could calm down, she encountered something else that made her heart race uncontrollably.

”Shi Xu, why did you come out without clothes?”

”Is it really okay for you to be like this?”

Su Mianmian looked at Shi Xu, who had just emerged from the bathroom wrapped only in a bath towel, with a shocked expression, and her face instantly flushed.

She didn’t know what to say.

In the end, she just flushed red and only dared to question him aloud.

Shi Xu didn’t expect Su Mianmian to react like that, and the corners of his mouth couldn’t help but turn up.

He actually hadn’t expected Su Mianmian to come back so quickly. He had thought she would dawdle for a long time before returning.

This was indeed something he hadn’t anticipated, but he still found it quite amusing that Su Mianmian had such a big reaction.

”This is my room too. I’m just wearing a bath towel here, it shouldn’t be illegal, right?”

”If you think I’m guilty, then it’s my fault.”

”I won’t argue.”

Shi Xu found today’s Su Mianmian unusually entertaining. When he came back today, he had thought they would end up arguing again, just like before, but he didn’t expect her to give him a surprise upon his return.

Su Mianmian felt that Shi Xu was acting out of character. She looked at him with a surprised expression, as if she had never seen him before.

As Su Mianmian scrutinized him, Shi Xu gradually felt that he seemed a little different himself.

He quickly regained his original expression and looked at Su Mianmian calmly, saying, ”Alright, I’ll pay attention in the future.”

When Su Mianmian heard Shi Xu say that, she nodded with satisfaction.

She felt that this was the Shi Xu she knew from the novel!

The Shi Xu from just now, she felt, was a bit off from the Shi Xu she knew in her heart.

”You wait a moment, I’ll go in and change my clothes.”

Su Mianmian nodded. She subconsciously walked to the side with her back to the bathroom.

Shi Xu looked at her subconscious action and couldn’t help but shake his head helplessly.

When Shi Xu came out again, he had already changed into a set of loungewear.

When Su Mianmian saw him, she felt that he looked very different from when he was in a suit just now.

The current Shi Xu seemed to have a touch of everyday life about him.

”Shi Xu, let’s first talk about why I wanted to divorce you a while ago.”

”I heard something recently. I heard from others that you cheated.”

”You know what kind of person my father is. What I hate most is cheating.”

”So...”

Su Mianmian briefly explained the situation.

She felt that taking the blame for the Original Body’s Owner was truly too difficult.

When she was just speaking, she almost wanted to crawl into a hole.

So awkward... Shi Xu was looking helpless at this moment. He hadn’t expected their argument to be over such a baseless matter.

He looked at Su Mianmian helplessly, wanting to say something reproachful, but then he thought that it was already a difficult feat for her to talk to him today. If he blamed her, she might become even more unhappy.

Shi Xu was still very concerned about Su Mianmian. After thinking this through, he organized his words in his mind before saying to her, ”Mianmian, I can tell you seriously, I don’t have any other women outside. I don’t know where you heard that news, but none of that is important. What’s important is that you just need to believe what I say.”

Su Mianmian had thought Shi Xu would complain about her overthinking things, but she didn’t expect him to react with such an attitude.

She couldn’t help but admit that Shi Xu was indeed a very good man.

If other men knew that their wife was making such a fuss with him because of a baseless matter, he would definitely be furious.

In this light, Shi Xu was indeed an emotionally stable man.

”It’s all because of my ’good’ ’best friend’! I only realize now, how is she a ’good best friend’ at all!”

”Shi Xu, I’m sorry. I misjudged people.”

”I won’t have any more dealings with her in the future.”

Su Mianmian also took the opportunity to let Shi Xu know that that woman was not a good person. She didn’t want Shi Xu to have any more dealings with that woman because of her in the future.

After hearing Su Mianmian’s words, Shi Xu gave her an amused look.

He had told her before that that woman was a bit complicated and that she should have less contact with her, but... never mind, no need to bring it up.

Shi Xu felt that the current Su Mianmian must already be quite unhappy, so it was better not to say anything that would make her even more upset.
