Cherreads

Chapter 48 - Chapter 48: The Selfish Tang San

"How is that possible?"

Hearing Xiao Wu say she didn't like the all-radish feast, Tang San's face was filled with disbelief.

"Didn't you used to eat it very happily?"

After being stunned for a long while, Tang San spoke again, asking.

"Tang San."

"You wouldn't have always treated that all-radish feast as some grand meal for Xiao Wu to eat, would you?"

At this moment, Ning Rongrong, who already had many grievances with Tang San, spoke up.

"Is there a problem?"

Tang San glanced indifferently at Ning Rongrong.

"Hehe."

"You still have the nerve to ask, 'Is there a problem?'"

"Of course there's a problem."

"And it's a big problem."

"How much does a jin of radish cost?"

"Even if it's made into that so-called all-radish feast, how much money can it be worth?"

"I heard that all of Xiao Wu's Spirit Hall subsidies, from childhood to adulthood, have been kept by you for safekeeping."

"That money is enough to take Xiao Wu to a real grand meal every year."

"But you, on the other hand, just sent Xiao Wu off with an all-radish feast."

"You wouldn't have taken Xiao Wu's money and treated it as your own, would you?"

Having finally found a reasonable opportunity to confront Tang San, Ning Rongrong naturally wouldn't let it go, her small mouth chattering non-stop.

"Nonsense."

"I've always helped Xiao Wu save her gold coins; I'm Xiao Wu's older brother, how could I possibly embezzle Xiao Wu's gold coins?"

"As for the issue of grand meals..."

"Xiao Wu's Spirit is a rabbit, so I instinctively thought she liked radishes."

Tang San didn't want Xiao Wu to misunderstand anything, so he quickly explained.

"What about Xiao Wu's clothes then?"

"Xiao Wu is so cute and pretty; she should at least buy some beautiful clothes to wear."

"But what about you?"

"All the clothes you bought for Xiao Wu are the most ordinary ones."

"Before, you had no money, so I didn't say anything."

"But you sold Hidden Weapons and earned a full five million gold coins from our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School; why didn't you take out a hundred thousand gold coins to properly dress up Xiao Wu from head to toe?"

Ning Rongrong wouldn't easily let Tang San off the hook.

"This..."

If Tang San still had an excuse regarding the food, he truly couldn't find any excuse to explain the issue of clothes.

"Rongrong."

"Little San must have put all his thoughts into cultivation and simply didn't think that much."

"Besides, Little San has only known Xiao Wu as a girl since he was little; his thoughts are very pure, and he doesn't know any tricks to please girls."

"To put it more bluntly..."

"If Little San truly knew various ways to please girls, then it would instead mean he's too experienced, and we would need to seriously consider whether it's worth being together."

Seeing Tang San speechless, Oscar quickly stepped in to smooth things over.

"Is that so?"

"Tang San himself is speechless, but you're quite impressive, still able to find excuses for him."

"It seems you're quite experienced, huh?"

Ning Rongrong coldly swept her gaze over Oscar and sneered.

"I'm not, I didn't."

"Rongrong, listen to my explanation."

Oscar was dumbfounded to see Ning Rongrong turn her spearhead towards him just because he had said a few good words for Tang San.

"That's enough."

"Explanation is just sophistry."

"I was just speaking a few words of fairness for Xiao Wu."

"Even if there's an explanation, it should be Tang San explaining to Xiao Wu."

Under Zhu Zhuqing's subtle tugging, Ning Rongrong also knew when to stop. After a few final jabs, she turned her head and began whispering with Xiao Wu and the others.

"Xiao Wu."

"Can we get off the carriage to talk?"

However, while Ning Rongrong could stop, Tang San couldn't say nothing.

Otherwise, it would definitely affect his image in Xiao Wu's heart.

"Alright."

Xiao Wu wanted to see what kind of story Tang San could come up with.

And just as Xiao Wu and Tang San got off the carriage, Shen Fan, who had been watching the show for a long time, also took out his notebook again and started writing.

"How strange."

"I remember that at this point in time, the Shrek Seven Devils' relationship should have been very good, so why are Ning Rongrong and Tang San arguing?"

"And she said it was to speak a few words of fairness for Xiao Wu."

"I just want to say, with Xiao Wu and Tang San's relationship, do you need to speak words of fairness?"

"No, that's not right."

"Could it be that seeking justice for Xiao Wu is just Ning Rongrong's excuse, and she actually wants to sow discord between them?"

"That's not right either."

"Ning Rongrong is just a bit of a little devil, but her heart is absolutely kind; she wouldn't do something like that."

Douluo I Ning Rongrong: "You have good taste."

"Speaking of which."

"Today, it's not just Ning Rongrong who's acting strangely; even Xiao Wu is a bit off."

"She actually refused Tang San's all-radish feast."

"This is truly the sun rising from the west."

"After all, for Xiao Wu, even if Tang San only gave her plain rice and no dishes, Xiao Wu would still smile and say it was delicious."

Xiao Wu: "Am I that cheap?"

"A meal of plain rice is enough to win me over?"

Xiao Wu absentmindedly responded to Tang San beside her, but she was secretly displeased in her heart.

"Forget it, I won't think about it anymore."

"Maybe this is the butterfly effect."

"Because of my appearance, the plot has deviated a bit."

"However, although I won't think about these two things anymore, I still quite agree with some of Ning Rongrong's views."

"After Tang San received the five million gold coins from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School for purchasing Hidden Weapons, he truly never thought of taking out a bit to improve Xiao Wu's clothing and meals."

"If I were Tang San..."

"The first thing I would do after getting these five million gold coins would be to take Xiao Wu to the auction house to buy her a storage spirit tool, and then give Xiao Wu a large sum of gold coins so she could buy whatever she wanted."

"I misspoke."

"I should say, if I were Tang San..."

"I would have long since taken half the gems from my Twenty Four Moonlit Bridges and given them to Xiao Wu."

"But what about Tang San?"

"Before he had money, he didn't consider Xiao Wu's feelings, and after he had money, he still didn't consider Xiao Wu's feelings."

"Didn't Tang San ever think that Xiao Wu is also a living person and needs to spend money?"

"Tang San usually spends a lot of time forging iron and cultivating; he can't be by Xiao Wu's side every minute of every second."

"At this time, if Xiao Wu's close friends invited her out to go shopping, and all the other friends were buying and buying, but Xiao Wu had no money and couldn't buy anything even if she saw something she truly liked, she could only stand there awkwardly."

"Didn't Tang San ever think about how embarrassed Xiao Wu would be at that time?"

"It's still the same saying: small matters reveal character."

"What Tang San has shown towards Xiao Wu is enough to prove that he is a selfish and petty person who puts himself first and never cares about others."
