Let's Divorce As Agreed
Chapter 1261 - Chapter 1261 Chapter 1260 Apology

Chapter 1261: Chapter 1260: Apology Chapter 1261: Chapter 1260: Apology Bai Lan really felt she was utterly foolish.

Why couldn’t she avoid it a little?

“What do you mean by that? The main thing is you’re fine,” Zhou Shengting finally stopped his movements.

Bai Lan still felt very guilty because she had ruined her father-in-law’s birthday banquet due to her own reasons.

Because the commotion on Bai Lan’s side was somewhat large, virtually the entire venue was aware of the incident.

Everyone was looking over here, and Zhou’s mother was explaining.

Zhou Shengting had held Bai Lan’s hand under the running water for a long time, until the skin on his arm no longer reddened and the burning sensation subsided.

When they returned to the birthday venue, everyone’s gaze “whooshed” their way, making Bai Lan feel somewhat embarrassed.

Seeing her, Zhou’s mother had an even grimmer expression, confirming Bai Lan’s guess.

This woman simply wasn’t fit to be seen in public.

Zhou Shengting held Bai Lan’s hand, walked up to the podium, and then introduced, “This is my wife, Bai Lan.”

The audience immediately became noisy–some knew, but a portion was unaware that Zhou Shengting was already married.

Because everyone thought that Zhou Shengting, as a famous businessman, would have a grand wedding ceremony if he got married.

But now he was already married, and no news had leaked out, so everyone guessed that he probably wasn’t very satisfied with his wife.

Because if you love someone, you would surely want to tell everyone.

But Zhou Shengting was so low-key that everyone was a bit puzzled.

However, from the incident just now, it seemed that Sheng Ting was very anxious about his wife.

From the moment of the incident until now, he had been holding her hand and had not let go.

Now seeing him introduce her so seriously, everyone finally understood that they had been discreet before, just not wanting to be disturbed.

Actually, he truly loved his wife from the bottom of his heart.

Because of this, everyone’s opinion of Bai Lan deepened a bit.

Fortunately, the birthday banquet went smoothly afterward, and the guests were very happy.

After sending off the guests, only the hosts remained.

Zhou’s mother had been grim-faced since the incident and was particularly cold toward Bai Lan.

Bai Lan gave a faint smile, having come to terms with it.

She wasn’t a currency; she couldn’t make everyone like her.

So she quietly stood beside Zhou Shengting, silent.

Zhou’s mother took the lead in rebuking, “Today was truly humiliating, so clumsy and awkward.”

“Actually, it’s not so serious; it was an accident, and nobody got hurt, which is what matters,” Zhou’s father consoled from the side.

It was actually just a minor issue, and he knew his wife was really just making a mountain out of a molehill.

But he couldn’t say much, because after so many years of marriage, he knew her character well: she was someone who didn’t like to be preached to, very assertive, and had strong opinions.

And he also couldn’t defend too vigorously, or else he would have a hard time when they went home.

“Hmph.” Sure enough, Zhou’s mother glared at him.

Zhou Shengting massaged his temples, then said, “Mom, nobody anticipated the accident, and thankfully, the injuries weren’t severe. I hope you don’t speak like that.”

“Are you blaming me now? Is it all my fault? Is that it?” Zhou’s mother suddenly lashed out.

Bai Lan quickly said, “Mom, I’m sorry, it was my fault; I will be more careful in the future.”

Actually, what Zhou’s mother wanted was just an apology from Bai Lan–she couldn’t stand how Bai Lan seemed to detach herself from everything.

Now that Bai Lan showed her stance, her anger subsided a little.

She didn’t look at Bai Lan but glared fiercely at Zhou Shengting, as if to say he was ungrateful. “I’m going home.”
