“I’m sorry. I’m just too hungry,” said Luosang.

Nian Junting’s lips curled down with dislike as he said, “You’re a woman, but you eat like a starved prisoner. Any man would be frightened by your poor table manners.”

Luosang paused. She remembered that her table manners were quite alright.

Sister Lan who stood aside couldn’t help but defend her, “Young Master, if Luosang’s table manners are poor, we can all die.”

“Who told you to speak?” shouted Nian Junting. He pulled a long face and said, “Sister Lan, do you want your year-end bonus or not?”

Sister Lan rubbed her ap.r.o.n and responded, “Speaking of year-end bonus, Young Master, I leave for the New Year tomorrow. My sons and daughter-in-laws are all waiting for me at home. But I’ll be back the day after the Lunar New Year’s day. Are you going back to the family house tomorrow?”

“I need to go to the hospital tomorrow, for physical therapy, so I’ll head to the family house the day after that,” said Nian Junting, frowning tightly. “Who will cook my dinner after you left?” he asked.

“I’ll get the ingredients ready, and Luosang can cook for you,” said Sister Lan. She thought for a moment and said, “Young Master, Luosang can cook very well.”

“No, the things she cooks are disgusting,” said Nian Junting, face filled with distaste.

Luosang wiped her mouth, smiled abruptly and said, “I feel lucky that you think I can’t cook well. Because then, I don’t need to take care of you and cook for you at the same time. That would be exhausting.”

Nian Junting immediately put down his chopsticks and sneered while saying, “Yeah, I pay you so well every day, but your only task is to take care of me, that’s so unfair. Starting tomorrow, you will be responsible for all my meals after Sister Lan leaves. And you’ll have to do it according to Sister Lan’s standards: six dishes and one soup, for every meal.”

Luosang widened her eyes and showed a pained look when she heard him.
