C61 Punishment (1/2)
In the main hall of the Residence of Lin.
Nangong Lin expressionlessly sat on his seat and his hawk-like eyes firmly stared at Yan Xiaoxi. His strength was so strong that it seemed as if it wanted to skin him alive.
”Little Linlin.” Yan Xiaoxi smiled coquettishly as she hugged Nangong Lin's well-built arm, trying to curry favor with him.
If she wanted that, she could agree to it. In any case, she did not hate that feeling, but if she wanted to make her starve, she might as well kill her. This way, at least she would not be tortured.
It was precisely because Nangong Lin knew this that he wanted to use this method to tame Yan Xiaoxi.
”Woman, you're really too reckless and reckless.” Even though Nangong Lin knew why Yan Xiaoxi was angry, he could not help but feel astonished at how brazen she was.
According to Yan Xiaoxi's fearless personality, if something happened and he wasn't by her side, how would she respond?
Even though he knew that Yan Xiaoxi wasn't a pushover, he still couldn't help but worry over her.
It was unknown when, but Yan Xiaoxi's every move and gesture had begun to affect his emotions.
”I really don't dare to.” As she spoke these words, Yan Xiaoxi sheepishly stuck out her tongue, as if even she didn't trust her own words.
She stared at Nangong Lin with innocent eyes and looked at him pitifully, wanting him to let her off softly.
However, Nangong Lin just calmly looked at Yan Xiaoxi, not moving at all.
”This King will never take back the words he said.” Nangong Lin's tone was as cold as ever.
Yan Xiaoxi took a look and immediately understood that Nangong Lin was serious this time around. With her understanding of him, once he was serious and made a decision, no matter who it was, it would not change.
As she thought of this, Yan Xiaoxi suddenly felt wronged.
The scene of Nangong Lin and Liu Zhixue embracing and hugging each other in the cold palace appeared in her mind. She was unwilling to imagine what happened after that.
In an instant, her original apology was gone.
That's right, she hadn't considered the consequences and had thought about her status as an imperial concubine before committing inappropriate actions. But why hadn't she stayed in the estate and left her home? Wasn't she blaming him for everything?
Home? That's right, Yan Xiaoxi had already treated the Residence of Lin Wang as her own home.
Nangong Lin once again witnessed the series of expressions on Yan Xiaoxi's face. With his intelligence, he was naturally able to guess what she was thinking.
”Xi Er.” Nangong Lin originally wanted to explain, but just as the words were about to leave his mouth, he swallowed them back.
”Right.” Yan Xiaoxi agreed.
”I'll only punish you to not eat for three days.” In the end, Nangong Lin chose to give in.
When Yan Xiaoxi heard this, she was stunned. She did not expect Nangong Lin to say this. He was still so stubborn. He wanted to punish her for his nonsense.
What about him? What punishment should others be punished?
”So what if I don't eat?” Yan Xiaoxi stood up angrily and returned to her room.
She stayed in her room all day, not taking a single step.
Nangong Lin was afraid that his heart would soften towards Yan Xiaoxi. He did not return to his room and instead stayed in his study.
When it was time for dinner, Yan Xiaoxi's stomach was growling in hunger. Originally, playing the zither at Hundred Flowers Restaurant and dancing had consumed a lot of energy. Furthermore, she hadn't eaten yet, so Yan Xiaoxi felt that she was about to faint from hunger.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind, and she withdrew the 10,000 silver on her body, then a brilliant smile appeared on the corners of her mouth.
Hmph, she was rich, so why did she have to stay at the mansion to eat? Why didn't she go to a restaurant to eat?
As she thought of this, Yan Xiaoxi's worried expression turned into a smile.
In the next moment, Yan Xiaoxi walked out of the room and headed straight for the door.
