Chapter 498: Apology
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The woman in the green army uniform clearly found Xia Wan’s proposal hard to accept, but she dared not retort rashly. She could only huff and puff, showing her dissatisfaction.
The woman in the plain s.h.i.+rt seemed calmer.
She sized up Xia Wan seriously and then said, “Both sides are at fault. Let’s just leave it at that.”
Liu Hua tugged at Xia Wan’s sleeve.
Xia Wan turned to listen and heard Liu Hua whisper: “Let it be! They probably didn’t do it on purpose.”
Liu Hua always advocated for peace in dealing with issues.
She had endured bullying silently for years, both in the village and at school.
Xia Wan was not one to swallow her anger like Liu Hua, especially when the other party was at fault.
“Not on purpose?” Xia Wan scoffed, “If I hadn’t caught you, you might have been knocked to the ground bleeding by now.
“And it was you who pushed us. Even if you apologize now, we won’t accept it.”
Xia Wan’s words were clearly directed at the woman in the dress who had remained silent.
The woman in the plain s.h.i.+rt glanced back at her friend who was still browsing the books, her eyebrows furrowed.
After a moment of thought, she said, “Since no one is injured, I’ll apologize on behalf of my friend. Or, if there’s any book you want to buy, I’ll give it to you as a gesture. How about that?”
Xia Wan raised an eyebrow, “We don’t need your charity. We can afford to buy our own.”
Hearing Xia Wan’s words, the woman in the green army uniform suddenly burst out laughing.
Liu Hua was angered by the mocking att.i.tude: “What are you laughing at!”
The woman in the plain s.h.i.+rt also hit her companion’s arm hard, signaling her to stop provoking further.
The companion rolled her eyes in dissatisfaction but reluctantly kept quiet.
Xia Wan, uninterested in their internal matters, focused on the woman who seemed oblivious, “Over there, your friend is ready to apologize for you, and you still act as if nothing happened. Is that appropriate?”
The woman in the dress, as if just realizing Xia Wan was speaking to her, turned to Xia Wan in surprise, “Were you talking to me just now?”
“I thought my friend accidentally offended you.”
Liu Hua couldn’t help but show a mix of laughter and disbelief at the woman’s att.i.tude.
Xia Wan, accustomed to such behavior, just looked at her calmly, “With your att.i.tude, are you saying you weren’t the one who shoved my friend?”
“Ah, did I do something just now?” The woman widened her eyes in surprise, “Maybe I was too excited to find the book I wanted and didn’t notice someone was blocking the way. I just subconsciously pushed away what was blocking me.”
“If you insist I hurt your friend, then fine, I apologize!”
Liu Hua was initially stunned, then realized the woman’s words implied she wasn’t considered a person in her eyes!
Liu Hua’s face turned red with anger, her previous restraint vanished: “How can you talk like that?
“It was you who were unreasonable first, how come it’s now us forcing you to apologize?”
“I didn’t say that,” the woman still looked innocent, blinking her eyes as if wronged, “I’m just saying, if you think I should apologize, then I’ll apologize.”
“You don’t have to keep harping on about it with my friend here, disturbing others in the bookstore.
“This is supposed to be a quiet place. By arguing like this, how can others choose books peacefully? In the end, you’re even affecting the bookstore’s business. ”
With these words, the woman not only s.h.i.+fted all responsibility away from herself but also blamed Xia Wan and Liu Hua for causing a commotion in public, even affecting the business.
Xia Wan’s eyebrows twitched slightly, finding the situation somewhat amusing.
She had never personally witnessed such tactics before in her previous life and didn’t expect to encounter it today.
The commotion also attracted the attention of others around them.
The woman in the green army uniform, seeing this, also started complaining loudly, “See! This is bullying us because we’re nice!”
“Forcing us to apologize!” “Where’s the justice in this!”
