Chapter 412 : Something is Wrong! (2/2)
“Soon you will be.” Although Han Shanyue rebutted nonchalantly, his words attacked Ning Xuemo’s weakest point.
Ning Xuemo subtly took a deep breath, and she told herself that she was a calm and composed person and that she would not get angry or pissed… Darn it. How could she not be furious about it!
“Master Han, Mister Han, even if I were to get married to you in ten days time, strictly speaking, officially we are still not a couple yet. According to the traditions and customs of Vast Sky Empire, the fiance may not meet the other a month prior to the wedding.” Ning Xuemo tried to convince him with reason. She had to get rid of him so that she could have the chance to escape.
“I am not a citizen of the Vast Sky Empire and neither are you, so we don’t have to follow their practices. Moreover, I am not your fiance , but rather, you are my concubine.” Han Shanyue extended his leg out, resting his cheek on this palm, his finger tapping on the table. There was a certain kind of laziness in this position, but somehow there was also an unexplainable attractiveness to it. Those maids who were cleaning the furniture at the hall were all taking a quick peek at him from time to time; their eyes were almost sparkling at the sight of him.
Ning Xuemo was about to curse and swear. What concubine, darned you concubine!
“Master Han, you are wrong. Even if you are not a citizen of Vast Sky Empire, I am truly a citizen of the Empire. Since I am a citizen, we will have to respect and follow the rules…”
“Are you sure you are one?” Han Shanyue stared at her intensely.
Ning Xuemo jumped. Did he know something?
“I… I am.” This came out quite weakly.
Han Shanyue seemed to grin and did not argue with her any further. He turned to Old Zhong asking, “Is my room ready?”

Whoa. Another ploy by Han Shanyue? Hm… Is this real love? Or another ploy? Hm…
Quite obviously, my favorite dim sum thing is Xiao long bao – soup dumplings. When I found out about this novel translation site – I love their novels, by the way – I fangirled because it was called Soupy Baozi dumplings translations. Hee~
DO NOT GO TO THE DIN TAI FUNG IN SANTA CLARA IN CALIFORNIA. SO FREAKING BAD. Sorry. But like, I eat enough Xiao long bao to know what is good and what is bad, and if there’s no soup in SOUP dumplings, you know it’s bad…
