Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 556

Chapter 556: Anger, Doubt, Provocation
Xiao Yiguan felt a dull pain in his chest and took a deep breath to suppress the uneasiness in his heart. After a while, he finally entered the house and saw several vegetable gardens in the yard.

Although he didn’t like this person, he had to admit that his skills in growing crops were good. The vegetables are lush and look delicious, much better than what they planted in the barracks.

Entering the living room, Xiao Yiguan saw Pan Meijia walking into one of the rooms and walking out with a jar in her hand. Then, she walked to the cabinet and took out a bamboo plate and three bamboo cups.

Seeing that she was so familiar with this place, he felt bitter in his heart. It seems that she often visits this man’s house.

Pan Meijia saw him standing at the door in a daze and said, “Comrade Xiao, please sit down.”

Hearing her call him that, he was anxious and wanted to explain, “Meijia, I…”

But before he could say anything, Li Lingyun entered the living room with a pot of hot tea and said, “Comrade, please have a seat.”

After a while, Xiao Yiguan finally walked toward the table and took a seat while Pan Meijia filled the bamboo plate with banana slices, and Li Lingyun filled the bamboo cup with tea.

Li Lingyun saw his girlfriend sitting opposite Xiao Yiguan and the corner of his lips lifted for a second before it returned to normal as he sat next to her. He picked up the cup, took a sip of tea, and looked at his girlfriend.

Pan Meijia noticed his gaze, thought for a moment, and asked, “Comrade Xiao, I wonder what brings you here today? Did something happen to Qingqing?”

Xiao Yiguan clenched his fists under the table, glanced at the man sitting beside him, and made up his mind, “Meijia, can we talk alone? I have something to tell you.”

Hearing his words, Pan Meijia was stunned for a moment, while Li Lingyun narrowed his eyes dangerously.

After Pan Meijia came back to her senses, she held her boyfriend’s hand under the table and said, “Comrade Xiao, this is my boyfriend, Li Lingyun. He is not an outsider, so you can say it here.”

Xiao Yiguan looked at her and asked, “Meijia, can’t you treat me like before? Do you have to keep a distance from me like this?”

Looking at him, Pan Meijia asked calmly, “Isn’t this what you want? You tell me that you never want to see me again and sever all friendships between us. Since we are no longer related to each other, why are you coming here and asking me to treat you like before?”

As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Yiguan said anxiously, “Meijia, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have said these words to you. I know I hurt you and misunderstood you. I apologize to you now. So, can you forgive me? Can we go back to the way we were before?”

When Li Lingyun heard what he said, he immediately felt anger surged in his heart and wanted to beat him.

Gritting his teeth, he thought, ‘Just a word of apology and he wanted Jia Er to forget the pain he had caused her? This man really thinks too highly of himself and deserves a beating!’

Pan Meijia noticed that her boyfriend’s face darkened at Xiao Yiguan’s words and the muscles on his arms were tense. She gently stroked the back of his hand to comfort him. When she felt that her boyfriend had calmed down, she said, “Comrade Xiao, I accept your apology, but I can’t go back to the way we were before.”

When Xiao Yiguan heard what she said, his face suddenly turned pale and he blurted out, “Meijia, I know you still have me in your heart and you are angry with me right now. I like you and I am willing to wait until you forgive me. So, please don’t tell me that it’s impossible for us to go back to the way we were before.”

This time, Li Lingyun completely lost his patience and interrupted him, “Comrade Xiao, are you treating me like a dead person? Did you forget Jia Er is my girlfriend now?!”

Xiao Yiguan glared at him and retorted, “Meijia has loved me since she was a child. We grew up together and are childhood sweethearts. It is impossible for her to like you after only knowing you for two months. The person she loves is me, and you are just a tool to make me jealous and angry!”

Before Li Lingyun could stand up and hit Xiao Yiguan, Pan Meijia grabbed his arm and said, “Brother Yun, calm down!”

Sensing the worry in her voice, he turned to look at his girlfriend and asked, “Jia Er, are you worried about him right now? Is what he said true?”

“Brother Yun, please calm down and listen to my explanation, okay?” Pan Meijia asked.

Although he was almost crazy with jealousy after being provoked by Xiao Yiguan’s words, Li Lingyun still believed in his girlfriend and sat down while breathing fire through his nose.

Seeing that her boyfriend was furious, Pan Meijia sighed, turned to look at Xiao Yiguan and said, “Comrade Xiao, I admit that I have feelings for you.”

As soon as she said this, the two men looked at her in unison. While Xiao Yiguan was delighted, Li Lingyun was in disbelief. Even though he had doubts in his mind, it still hurt to hear his girlfriend admit it.

Before the two of them could react, she continued, “Before, I thought liking you meant love, but after meeting Brother Yun, I realized what love is. I love you as a friend and as a brother, but not as a man.”

“I love my boyfriend and I don’t want him to feel uncomfortable or sad because of another man, so I can’t go back to the way things were before. Thank you for liking me but I can’t return your feelings. I’m sorry,” she added with a smile.
