Ming Ling waved his hand impatiently. "Enough, stop talking nonsense!"
Before Cheng Qi could continue speaking, Ming Ling had already strode to the cloakroom, changed into a set of formal attire and left.
… ….
The dark room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Only after a long while did he hear Su Nuan Nuan's relieved breathing, as he breathed out the heavy pressure in his chest.
Ming Ling did not enter the room again, and his tensed up nerves finally relaxed.
Was she being too hypocritical today?
Since she had already signed the contract, and had already made up her mind to be Ming Ling's woman, shouldn't she pay the price of a mistress?
However, she was truly very afraid. This had nothing to do with hypocrisy. It was a fear that she could not control.
Forget it. If he was angry, then so be it. There was nothing he could do to make up for it.
But coming back to it, she really didn't understand why Ming Ling didn't mind the child in her womb.
Moreover, he had never even asked who the father of the child in her womb was.
Also, did he not suspect that the child in her womb was Tian Yi Lan's?
After all, she had dated Tian Yi Lan for three years. Even though the two of them had never even kissed, they were still official male and female friends.
What a strange and incomprehensible person he was to have a pregnant woman as his lover.
Su Nuan Nuan sorted out the matter, and still did not manage to sort out any clues, as she fell into a deep sleep.
The next day she was awakened by the sound of the room.
Opening his eyes, he saw Lv Zhu sweeping the floor.
Su Nuan Nuan sat up in a hurry. Lv Zhu was sweeping the floor for glass fragments, which were left behind by the table lamp the day before.
Su Nuan Nuan quickly got off the bed.
Lv Zhu said, "Miss Su, be careful not to hurt your leg, just wait for me to clean up the broken pieces first, you can get up."
"It's fine, it's fine, where's your Young Master?" Su Nuan Nuan got off the bed wearing her shoes and asked Lv Zhu.
"Young Master went out yesterday and hasn't returned yet." Lv Zhu replied.
Out?
Su Nuan Nuan was slightly surprised.
No wonder it was so quiet all night. The man hadn't come back for the whole night.
"Oh, so that's the case..." Su Nuan Nuan pursed her lips.
… ….
Su Nuan Nuan was wearing the white dress that Ming Ling had prepared for her yesterday. Under the arrangements of the servants, she was bored out of her mind after eating breakfast.
Originally, Lv Zhu wanted to go out for a walk but she told her that it was cold outside and not to go out.
It was just Ming Ling ordering her to watch over her.
Since she had nothing to do, she could only read in her room. In a blink of an eye, it was already noon.
She took out her cell phone and flipped through it. Her original expectation was instantly dashed.
She didn't go back for the whole night and disappeared. Unexpectedly, no one found out that she had disappeared. There wasn't even a text message. There wasn't even a WeChat. There wasn't even a phone call.
Suddenly, she realized that she was the only person in the world who cared about her. No one would care about her safety.
Even if she disappeared from this world one day, she wouldn't know.
A desolate feeling spread from the bottom of his heart.
That's right, in Bai Wan's heart, there was only Big Brother Su Mo, and he would only think of her if something happened to his. In Tian Yi Lan's heart, there was only Dai Xiu Xiu, and Father, was unable to save herself right now …
Daddy!
If she angered Ming Ling yesterday, would he go back on his words and not help her save her father?
Su Nuan Nuan was suddenly at a loss.
"Miss Su, have some snacks." Just as she was thinking, Butler Cheng Qi came in with a dessert and placed it on the table in front of her.
"Thank you." Su Nuan Nuan put down the book and smiled faintly.
"Miss Su, although our family's Young Master has a weird temper, it's not difficult to get along with him after understanding his temperament. If he's in a good mood, some things will be easier to handle." Butler Cheng Qi suddenly said to Su Nuan Nuan. His wrinkled face had a smile on, and he looked kind.
Su Nuan Nuan was curious, "What personality does he have?"
"Young Master has always lacked love since he was young. He is a little eccentric and his temper is also prone to get angry. As long as you slowly curry favor with him, anything will be fine." Cheng Qi gave Su Nuan Nuan a piece of advice and then left.
Ingratiate?
Su Nuan Nuan picked the main point.
That's right, she had to do something for her father.
At night, Ming Ling returned.
Su Nuan Nuan was sitting on the sofa in the living room and playing with her mobile, and upon hearing his voice, she stood up and took the initiative to go forward to pick up his jacket. Lv Zhu came over to pick up the tea in her hands, and Su Nuan Nuan went up to take it.
"You must be tired. Have some tea." She spoke to him.
Ming Ling shifted his gaze away from the financial newspaper, his deep eyes glanced at her, and took a sip of tea, before continuing to read the newspaper.
The atmosphere was cold and cheerless. He was clearly ignoring her.
Su Nuan Nuan bit her lips as she tried to think of a way to break this awkwardness.
"About that …" He wanted to find a topic to talk, so he cleared his throat and asked, "What do you want to eat today?"
"Didn't you cook in the kitchen? Cheng Qi! " Ming Ling threw down the newspaper, frowned and said.
Cheng Qi immediately came over, "Young Master …"
"I won't be cooking if I'm not in the kitchen. How are you guys doing this!" Ming Ling reprimanded.
Cheng Qi hurriedly admitted his wrongs, "It was my negligence, I will immediately order someone to do it …" He hurried to the kitchen.
Su Nuan Nuan awkwardly stood at the side, wanting to interrupt, but she couldn't. She wanted to say, that was not what she meant.
It wasn't because she was hungry that she asked him that. She just wanted to ask what he wanted to eat, and she would cook it for him.
He didn't expect that the other party would misunderstand his intentions, so he immediately reprimanded him.
Looking at Cheng Qi being lectured, Su Nuan Nuan felt really bad in her heart.
Su Nuan Nuan wanted to say something, but seeing the cold lines on Ming Ling's face, she was unable to find any words to say.
"Let the kitchen cook whatever you want to eat, don't be so timid." Ming Ling scolded towards her again.
"I didn't mean that."
"Then what do you mean?"
"Eh …. "I …" Su Nuan Nuan wanted to say something to please her, but she was unable to say it out loud. She swallowed her saliva, and finally said it out loud: "I originally wanted to ask you what you like to eat, I'll make it for you."
Make some for him to eat?
Ming Ling's hand that was holding onto the newspaper suddenly stopped, a subtle change flashed across his eyes, it was so fast that no one could feel it.
He then shook the newspaper and continued reading, "We have a lot of cooks in the Ming family, which cooking skills aren't as good as yours?"
"Yes …" "That's right..." Su Nuan Nuan was thwarted once again, by what he said, feeling a little awkward.
The Ming family's land was worth every inch of money. Since they were rich, what kind of chef couldn't they invite? It was her turn?
Not long after, the dishes from the kitchen were served.
Ming Ling took a bite, and immediately spat out, "Pui! What kind of rotten vegetable was this! It tastes so bad! "
"I'm sorry Young Master, the original chef took a day off from work. Today, this chef is temporarily acting as a substitute, I will immediately find a new chef."
"Come back!" Ming Ling called out to Cheng Qi, "There's no need, let her do it." He pointed at Su Nuan Nuan with a look of command.
