Chapter 662: Slag mer
Xiao Hua snorted as he looked at the woman who was shamelessly claiming to love him. " I think you are forgetting something, I don't think that its surprising given that you are getting so old but I will relay it down to you since it slipped your memory —— you knocked me out, you hit me when I tried to stop you from taking me away and even then when I did not agree with you, you stomped on my stomach and then carried me into this carriage like I was some sort of rice sack. I don't know about you but Yu Dong will never think about hitting me like that just because I denied her something."
He turned to look at Gu Li and sneered, " So do us all a favour and stop comparing yourself with my Yu Dong, you are disrespecting her by mentioning her in the same breath as you."
The second Xiao Hua mentioned being hit, Gu Li's eyes for only a moment flickered with shame but the second he called Yu Dong, his, those feelings vanished and were replaced with a hard glare. " I did not hit you because I took pleasure in your pain, It wasn't what I wanted to do but you did not agree with me, and I had no choice but to use force if you only listened to me like you did in the past then——"

He was innocent damn it, it was this woman who was out of her damn mind, so why was he being questioned like this? It was not like he was the one who was sick in his head right?
Gu Li looked at him like she was rather hurt because of his choice of words and that only caused Ye Liu to stare at him even harder causing Xiao Hua to start sweating as he looked at the woman in front of him. In fact, the way the woman was looking at him made him even rethink everything that he did in his entire life, it was only when he was completely certain that he was innocent, did he cross his arms in front of him and then looked at the woman and said, " I have never done anything that you are accusing me of!"
" Of course, you have, when I can to the tavern and I used to tell you how my sister has harmed me, you did everything to cheer me up! When I used to ask you to sing for me then you will sing, if I asked you to sit by my side you will stay next to me till the end and continue to keep me company! You were the only bright light in my life!"
When Gu Li retired from the army, she had nothing and no one to take care of, it was during this time that she found the tavern where the women came to take their stress out and found Xiao Hua who was like a sweet little honey pot who cared for her more than anyone else did in her entire life and this was why she fell for him.
Ye Liu was speechless after listening to what Gu Li said, he turned to look away from this stupid woman and left Xiao Hua to take care of her. It was all right, he was not the one who provoked this woman, the one who did was the one who was responsible for this mess.
Xiao Hua was even more speechless than Ye Liu, it was true that he did all that but that was all business! Gu Li was not the only one whom he kept company, there were many women who came to the tavern and he would keep them company.
As long as they paid him with silver and gold taels, he will stay next to them and listen to their babbling because that was his job! Just because he was doing his job and keeping this woman company for the sake of money, he ended up in a one-sided relationship with her. What kind of logic was this?
" And I did the same for others as well, if we start counting like this then I will have thousands of lovers on my side!" Xiao Hua replied as he looked at the woman in front of him in exasperation.

" It was my job!" Xiao Hua was going crazy thinking about how he got into this mess no wonder his daddy said that the tavern was really the worst place. He was right, all sorts of weird and dangerous creatures came to that place!
" But we were different!" Gu Li insisted pursing her lips in a thin line. " I know that we were different and you were only dazzled by Yu Dong, this is why I had to do this to bring you on the right path and everything that I did was necessary because there was no other choice in front of me!"
Did she really think that she was talking in human language? Xiao Hua looked at the woman and then said, " You are right, you had plenty of sane choices but you only picked up the insane ones. Admit it you do not love me, you are just obsessed with the idea of keeping me by your side until you grow bored of me just like you grew bored of all those mers whom you killed."
" They were just mere distractions until you came with me," Gu Li's gaze went hard as she stared at Xiao Hua while the carriage started to pick speed again. " I was waiting for you but then those mers got sticky and noisy so I had to kill them all."
" And the only way was to kill them?" Xiao Hua questioned back as he looked at Gu Li. " You could have always thought of another way!"
" And you could have thought of coming home with me!"
