Chapter 1382: Chapter 1181: I Want to Go Back to the Manor_1 Chapter 1382: Chapter 1181: I Want to Go Back to the Manor_1 Upon lifting her eyes, Qiao Xiaomai entered and the tip of her nose caught the familiar aroma. Yang Ye’s furrowed brows immediately unraveled, “This is good.”
He loved Buddha’s Temptation!
Qiao Xiaomai expressionlessly set the tray in her hand in front of Bei Lingsu, “Try this, should be enough for you to eat, right?”
The overpowering and dominant fragrance of the Buddha’s Temptation was always able to mask other scents. Bei Lingsu, smelling it, immediately smiled with her almond eyes curling into crescents, “Wow, I like, I like!”
She lifted the lid and saw a bowl piled high with abalone, sea cucumber, shark fin, and some vegetables, which made her even happier, “It’s enough, it’s enough!”
Such a large bowl, with so many delicacies, she couldn’t finish it even if she ate all day!
Yang Ye saw Bei Lingsu’s excited look and, smelling the rich aroma, couldn’t help but stretch his neck to look toward the door.
Seeing no one else coming in behind Qiao Xiaomai, his brows knit together again, “Why so slow?”
He was hungry!
On hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai glanced at him and coldly said, “They are cooking, so naturally it’s slow.”
“Cooking?”
“I’ve had them help me make sweets all morning; they didn’t have time to make your lunch,” Qiao Xiaomai said.
“What?” Yang Ye’s brows knitted into a frown, “What do you mean?”
“What I mean is that from now on I’ll only cook for Miss Bei, your meals are not within my responsibilities,” Qiao Xiaomai said.
Yang Ye “…”
His phoenix eyes were wide and he even opened his mouth slightly in shock.
Qiao Xiaomai, she won’t cook for him anymore?
“You don’t need to look at me with such surprise. I’m a subject of Daqi, and the ‘Daqi Laws’ have never dictated that I must cook for you, Your Highness,” Qiao Xiaomai’s tone and expression were both cold as she addressed Yang Ye.
“Also, please trouble Your Highness to find someone to send me back to the manor, I need to leave this place.”
Having said that, she immediately lowered her head to look at Bei Lingsu, “Miss Bei, I’m terribly sorry, but I must leave due to urgent matters. However, I promise that your food will be honored. After the extermination of the Tianlong Gang, you are welcome to visit me at the manor.”
Bei Lingsu, with her mouth full, “…”
Her almond eyes widened with disbelief as she mumbled unclearly, “What’s happening?”
“I suddenly remembered that there’s an emergency at home, truly sorry,” a hint of apology appeared on Qiao Xiaomai’s face.
Bei Lingsu struggled to swallow the food in her mouth and was about to speak when Yang Ye across from her started scowling, “We’re short on hands for the crackdown on Tianlong Gang, where would we find spare people to send you back?”
“Then I’ll walk back on my own,” facing Yang Ye, Qiao Xiaomai’s tone returned to being indifferent.
“Nonsense!” Yang Ye slammed his hand on the table, his handsome face filled with anger, “Have you lost your mind? This is Tianlong Gang’s territory; if you walk out, you’ll definitely be captured by them. Do you want to end up like Tong Sanlang’s mother, being taken hostage?!”
Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai’s expression remained unchanged, “Your Highness, don’t curse me with your words. Since I’ve chosen to leave on my own, life and death are fated, so there’s no need for Your Highness to worry.”
“You think it’s that simple? Don’t forget the debt you owe!” Yang Ye, still seeing her unmoved expression, abruptly stood up, “If you have issues with Tong Sanlang, go find him. Coming here and causing a scene with me for no reason – what for!”
“He’s standing right outside the door. Whatever you need to sort out with him, do it there, but don’t cause trouble when we face a great enemy!”
Yang Ye said, pointing angrily at the door.
At the doorway, Tong Sanlang’s expression was dark as water.
