Chapter 1376: Chapter 1175 Grievance_1 Chapter 1376: Chapter 1175 Grievance_1 Tong Sanlang “…”
If he didn’t leave now, Qiao Xiaomai was going to call someone to throw him out…
“Do you really hate me that much…”
“Someone, throw Duke Tong out!”
Before he could finish the difficultly squeezed-out sentence, Qiao Xiaomai cut him off. With a cold face, she walked to the kitchen door and shouted to the soldiers patrolling in the Courtyard, “You there, come over and throw Duke Tong out!”
The soldiers were visibly stunned when they heard the order.
Qiao Xiaomai frowned, her tone even more impatient, “What are you, deaf? Didn’t you hear?!”
“Aiyo, we heard, we heard!” Before the soldiers could speak up, Yang Ye burst out from the house first, excitement plastered across his handsome face.
The Courtyard they were living in was not large, with the bedroom, living room, and kitchen all within one enclosure. When Qiao Xiaomai stood at the kitchen door and shouted, Yang Ye heard her instantly from the living room.
He hurriedly put down his chopsticks and came out to see what the excitement was about.
So, Qiao Xiaomai didn’t only confront him, she even confronted Tong Sanlang!
His mood instantly brightened!
“Miss Qiao, don’t be angry, I’ll drive him out right now.” He used his lightness skills to land at the kitchen doorway, smiling at Qiao Xiaomai.
Qiao Xiaomai gave him a cold glance, “Then please do, Your Highness.”
“Not at all troublesome, actually quite my pleasure,” Yang Ye said, grinning at Tong Sanlang standing inside the kitchen, “Duke Tong, will you leave on your own, or do I have to escort you out myself?”
Tong Sanlang clenched his fists in secret. His lips pressed into a straight line, he didn’t say a word and started walking towards the door.
As soon as he left the kitchen, Qiao Xiaomai immediately entered.
Watching his retreating back as he walked towards the Courtyard gate, Yang Ye called out to him, “Duke Tong, don’t wander off. We have serious matters to discuss after the meal!”
At those words, Tong Sanlang paused in his steps, then turned and went to the living room, “Let’s discuss now, and we can talk while we eat.”
Yang Ye glanced at Qiao Xiaomai, who was focused on whipping egg whites, and said, “Miss Qiao, make sure to call for me if you need anything.”
Qiao Xiaomai hummed a response.
Yang Ye, satisfied, walked towards the living room.
The kitchen quieted down, with only the sound of whipping egg whites remaining.
Qiao Xiaomai, expressionless, continued with her task. Once the egg whites were ready, she started to make a cake. There was no oven here, so she had to use an iron pot; the cake made this way would not resemble a proper cake, but could only be called a sweet pancake.
However, she added a lot of milk and sugar, so it smelled quite nice and tasted delicious.
After the cake was done, she put it on a plate, didn’t bother with chopsticks, and simply used her hands to tear and eat it.
The fragrant, soft cake melted in her mouth, the rich taste of milk and sweetness filling her entire mouth. She chewed expressionlessly, bit by bit, and finished all the sweet pancakes.
But her mood didn’t improve.
In the past, when she was upset, she would always quietly make desserts by herself. On one hand, she enjoyed hands-on cooking, and on the other, sweets made her happy. Surrounded by the rich scent of milk and sweetness, she loved that sense of bliss.
But now, having finished all the cakes, she felt even worse.
So bad that she wanted to cry out loud.
Wronged.
Very wronged.
Tong Sanlang still refused to give her an answer, but at this point, even if he gave her an answer, it meant nothing.
His actions had said it all.
She had placed him on a pedestal, giving him the highest place in her heart, he was her everything.
But she was not his everything.
