Chapter 13 - Was He Telling Her that She’s No Better Than His Dog? (2/2)
Luosang was hungry already. Smelling her favorite kind of noodles, she now felt even more hungry and even heard her belly rumbling.
However, she kept her eyes straight, because her parents’ teachings wouldn’t allow her to look hungry.
Nian Junting threw a sideways glance at her, then coldly quirked up the corners of his lips and said, “Sister Lan, your culinary skills are a lot worse than before. I lost my appet.i.te the moment I saw this.”
Steward Wu, who was holding the beef rice noodle and preparing to feed him, paused and asked, “Young Master, then this rice noodle…”
“Discard it. I have no appet.i.te when looking at it.” Once he finished this sentence, he saw Luosang’s calm face move slightly, so he elegantly grinned and asked her, “What’s wrong, Luosang? Do you want it?”
“No…” Luosang shook her head and responded. “But I think it’s quite wasteful to discard it.”
Nian Junting remained silent and thought for a while, then said with a smile, “It’s wasteful indeed. Steward Wu, go bring Xiaosi here from the backyard. This morning, he’ll have beef rice noodles for breakfast.”
Xiao Si…
Luosang paused, suddenly thinking of the well-groomed man who visited the night before last.
‘Does he live in Nian Junting’s backyard?’ she wondered.
When Steward Wu came back with a black and white Alaskan malamute, Luosang realized that she was wrong.
Nian Junting named his dog after his close friend.
It was so awful.
‘How can this kind of person have friends? It’s inconceivable. His friends are so unlucky,’ Luosang thought.
Xiaosi seemed to be well-trained. Once he received the order from Steward Wu, he nimbly hopped onto a dining chair and squeezed his giant body together, looking very fitting.
“Give him a fried bread stick too,” said Nian Junting while glancing at Luosang again. Seeing her face twitch slightly, he was very delighted. “Ah, don’t forget Luosang’s steamed bread,” he added.
Had he been clearly telling her that she was no better than his dog?
Luosang was used to this.
Steward Wu was speechless.
