The study room immediately quieted down. Xiao Meng Han boiled fresh water and poured the transparent water into the exquisite blue teapot. What she poured out was a sweet and cold tea soup.
It was a thorn in his side, and a flash of sadness passed through his eyes. No one would know that there was a secret passed down in the Earl family, and until now, every man that survived until now would possess the wealth and power that other men envied, as well as clan secrets that others didn't know about.
But the men of the Earl family were also saddened. They were about to have a physical intercourse with a woman and have the next bloodline, then their lives would quickly age and their corpses would not be left behind. Before this, as long as they kept their virginity, they would live a very long time.
Closing his eyes, he thought he was the saddest man in the Earl family, thinking that he would never know what women felt like, that he didn't even care about their bodies, that he just couldn't stand it, that he wouldn't give in to her, that he wanted to wait for her to give birth to the child in her womb, and then start again with her.
Xiao Meng Han placed a cup of tea on the tea table in front of Er Duotan and then looked at him quietly, ”I'm waiting for you to tell the story. From now until tomorrow noon, you have a lot of time.”
”A lot of time?” He shook his head in denial and lowered his head to taste his tea. He decided that from tomorrow onwards, he would have to drink this tea every day for the rest of his life.
There was a long sigh, and a pang in his eyes. This might be the last time they would ever meet.
”I think there are some things you'll tell Lengsha in the future that he will be the pride of the Earl family.”
”Why didn't you tell him yourself?”
”I can hide it from others, I can't hide it from you. Xiao Meng Han, do you think my body will be able to hold on until you return? This time, it will not be easy. ” This time around, she was smiling in a very coquettish manner. However, her smile made Xiao Meng Han want to give Earl Tengshan a good beating.
That day, Xiao Menghan only returned to his bedroom after the sky had turned completely white. Er Duoteng's body had also supported itself to the limit before Xiao Menghan was able to return.
He took the cold sand with him to the underground palace. He didn't know what to do until before noon when he returned to the mansion. He was already as pale as a sheet of paper and would occasionally lower his head to cough, while the cold sand in his eyes were red as if he had been crying.
”Eat, eat, then leave.” He was not afraid of death, but he was more afraid of it.
The atmosphere of the meal was very depressing, and Miao Siqing was the most at ease. However, after looking at the expressions of the people around him, he lowered his head and focused on eating.
Erdonteng almost didn't eat. He just drank some red wine. He waited until Mo Xiaoxiao put down his chopsticks and said, ”Xiao Yan, I have something for you. Can you come with me to the study room?”
”Alright.” Mo Xiaoxiao stood up and was about to leave when a pair of large hands suddenly picked her up from the chair. It was Xiao Meng Han's.
”I'll walk you upstairs.” As he stood up, the cold sand that had been silent all this time immediately rose up as well. He waved his hand, letting the cold sand continue to sit down and eat, ”I'm fine, you're full now, so prepare to eat with Miao Siqing. Here, you will eventually come back, so there's no need to be nostalgic.”
Cold Sand's eyes became watery as he looked at the last two words. He saw that Erdonton's weak body seemed to have floated up the stairs. Cold Sand unintentionally looked away from Miao Siqing's sight, and the cold sand shifted its gaze away awkwardly.
Miao Siqing originally wanted to flatter Leng Sha, but after seeing Leng Sha's sad appearance, he coughed softly and pretended that nothing was wrong as he continued to eat.
