Chapter 94: Soft-spoken And Submissive
Translator: Paperplane
Nangong Ba thought about it for a moment, before he turned to Liu Rushuang. “Baby, after we get something to eat, I’ll take you out. I’ll buy you anything you want,” he said with an affectionate voice.
Liu Rushuang shot a glance at Nangong Ba. “Do I have the power to decline?” She asked flatly.
Nangong Ba was stunned for a second, but then remembered how Liu Rushuang was no ordinary woman, so he accepted her response.
“You can’t decline. I’ll take you out and who knows? There might be something you want to buy, Baby,” he said in a gentle, loving voice.
Liu Rushuang was speechless.
What’s Nangong Ba playing at by pulling a captivating smile like that?
In the room, the maids were dumbstruck as they watched just how Nangong Ba tried to win Liu Rushuang’s affection. Where did their arrogant and condescending master go?
They all became a little jealous of Liu Rushuang, and wanted him to treat them like that too.
Liu Rushuang’s lips twitched. Why did she feel a chill in her bones?
Nangong Ba stared at Liu Rushuang’s perfect side profile, then fawned, “Baby, what would you like to eat? I’ll get someone to bring it up.”
All of a sudden several women dressed in red lost their footing. Among them, were noble daughters from wealthy families and even ladies of goverment officials. They only went to the Nangong Ba’s mansion and became a lowly maid just for a chance to marry him.
But they’ve become maids for so long now, and yet they’ve never seen Nangong Ba ever say anything in a soft-spoken and submissive manner.
To their surprise, he’s trying to win the affection of a woman he had only just met, and yet he’s afraid to upset her?
They questioned their own beauty. Although they weren’t flawless like this woman, they were also beautiful maidens.
Couldn’t their master see them?
Liu Rushuang wore an emotionless look on her face, Then, without a care, she said, “You can decide.”
Nangong Ba grinned slightly with his eyes still transfixed upon Liu Rushuang. With a cold tone of voice, he ordered the maid, “Prepare the usual.”
The maid who was responsible for dining looked visibly annoyed but replied, “Yes, milord.” Although she was jealous of that woman, she didn’t dare ignore her master.
In less than fifteen minutes, several maids gracefully placed dishes of food on the table.
Liu Rushuang’s hands were tied in front of her, but she was still able to pick up her chopsticks. Without any intention of being polite, she picked up some food and started eating. When she came across something delicious, she would eat a little more.
Nangong Ba watched as Liu Rushuang moved a little awkwardly and couldn’t help but serve some food into her bowl.
Liu Rushuang was stunned for a moment, as she watched Nangong Ba put food into her bowl. Although she really liked eating the food, what did Nangong Ba mean by this?
He made her feel a little uncomfortable. Did he actually want her to eat?
After thinking it over, she picked up the food with her chopsticks and ate it. Afterall, it wasn’t poisoned, so she couldn’t just waste food like that.
Nangong Ba was given an inch and wanted a mile. He picked up more food and put it into Liu Rushuang’s bowl.
Liu Rushuang ate it anyway.
But on the fifth time that Nangong Ba was just about to put food into Liu Rushuang’s bowl, she stopped him with her chopsticks. As she looked up at Nangong Ba, she slightly furrowed her brows and said with all honesty, “Sir, I don’t like it when you put food in my bowl, so stop just stop it.”
Nangong Ba looked her right in the eyes and immediately flashed a charming smile. “Okay. This’ll be the last one. Baby, you have to eat well. Look at how skinny you are,” he said with an extremely gentle voice.
Liu Rushuang couldn’t help but blank out, as she felt her whole body turn numb. After she heard what Nangong Ba said, she put her chopsticks down.
Nangong Ba flashed a beaming smile, then put the food into Liu Rushuang’s bowl.
