My Alleged Husband

Chapter 1027: Chapter 893: Own Memories_8

Passerby A only believed what Passerby B said after seeing Zhang Zhentian with his own eyes. He said, ”I didn’t look at him before, but now I see it’s really as you said.”

”You say this person has something wrong with his mind, why don’t his family take care of him?”

”How would I know, I’m not his father.”

......

Waves of comments saying Zhang Zhentian had something wrong with his mind bombarded him. I couldn’t stand hearing these people whispering anymore and directly shouted at them, ”Shut up, do you even know what you’re talking about? What does me standing here have to do with you? Is this road yours? Saying I have something wrong with my mind once is enough, right? Saying it over and over, do you really wish other people have something wrong with their minds that much...”

Passerby A and Passerby B stared at Zhang Zhentian in shock. They were dumbfounded as this person they thought had something wrong with his mind suddenly started speaking, and eloquently at that. They felt quite embarrassed, having mistaken someone who clearly wasn’t sick...

”No, I’m sorry, brother. I didn’t know. I saw you standing here all along, so I mistakenly thought there was something wrong with your mind. Please don’t mind.” Passerby B awkwardly scratched his nose as he spoke to Zhang Zhentian.

I unappreciatively said, ”If you don’t know, don’t talk nonsense. I’m waiting for someone here, not standing here because there’s something wrong with my mind.”

What I said made Passerby B even more embarrassed, so he had to brace himself and ask Zhang Zhentian, ”I don’t know who you’re waiting for, brother? Could you tell me?”

Thinking about what they said made me uncomfortable, and I replied coldly, ”Why do I need to report to you who I’m waiting for? And as for ’little brother,’ huh, anyone with a little brother like you is really out of luck.”

The two of them said no more and just nodded at me.

”Yes, brother, you’re right. I’ll be going now!”

I didn’t say anything and just waved my hand to signal them that they could leave.

I didn’t know that Xia Jing had watched everything I did today from the side.

I wasn’t angry because Xia Jing hadn’t shown up yet. I kept consoling myself, ”Don’t worry. Since Xia Jing promised to meet, she will surely come. If she hasn’t arrived, something must have delayed her. It’s okay, just wait here, and you’ll definitely meet her.”

However, Xia Jing thought that my anger towards the two passersby was because she was late. She believed Zhang Zhentian was venting his displeasure with her on innocent people, which made Xia Jing feel bad.

Xia Jing silently walked up behind me and clapped her hands, saying, ”Good, nice.”

Zhang Zhentian turned around to see Xia Jing had arrived and, excitedly, he grabbed Xia Jing’s hand, but she pulled it away. I said to Xia Jing, ”You’re finally here. I didn’t wait a day and night in vain.”

I spoke excitedly, but Xia Jing coldly regarded me. Seeing her attitude toward me, I thought she was still angry about the previous incident, so I quickly tried to appease her, ”Xia Jing, don’t be mad. I know I was wrong before. I shouldn’t have said those things. You’re not like that. I apologize for what I said to you before. Please forgive me.” I bowed to Xia Jing for the first time at a ninety-degree angle.

If Xia Jing hadn’t seen me lash out at the passersby, she would surely have been moved by what I said now. But now she misunderstood Zhang Zhentian because of the incident with the passersby.

Xia Jing didn’t say anything about forgiving me. Instead, her words left me feeling baffled.

”Forgive? Why should I forgive you? Zhang Zhentian, if you have any dissatisfaction with me, you can tell me. If I’ve done something wrong, you can let me know, but how can you involve innocent people?”

With a confused look, I asked, ”Xia Jing, what are you talking about? Where did I show any dissatisfaction with you?”

”Zhang Zhentian, I admit that me being late for our meeting today is my fault. If you’re not satisfied, you can tell me, but how can you get angry at innocent passersby?”
