Peerless Heiress - Chapter 46
I shivered and involuntarily touched the body that his gaze had swept over, subconsciously feeling a pain as if I had been cut by a knife.
What kind of perversion is this? It's actually possible to hurt someone with just a glance?
An Ye withdrew his gaze, ignoring me, and with a flick of the reins, prepared to gallop away.
I panicked and lunged at him, grabbing his arm.
Just kidding. It's not easy to run into you, so I must find out the truth about things that my master can't investigate.
I should get close to you first, no matter what.
"Let go." Dark Night lowered her eyelashes, her voice icy.
I glanced at An Ye, then at the arm around him in my arms, and tightened my grip even more. I shook my head: "I won't let go."
"What else do you want to do?" Dark Night suddenly raised his eyes, staring at me with a piercing light, as if trying to see right through me.
I smiled ingratiatingly and said, "I... I'm hungry."
Dark Night was taken aback by my sudden remark, paused for a moment, and then said, "There are rice troughs over there."
"I have no money," I said matter-of-factly.
"So you should treat me, you owe me," I added.
An Ye stared straight into my eyes for a while, and I just kept chuckling, looking at him indifferently.
"Take it."
Suddenly, a bright pearl appeared in his hand.
The bead was huge and perfectly round, shimmering with iridescent colors in the sunlight.
Although I stole a bag of jewelry from Rong's mother when I first arrived in this timeline, and there were quite a few valuable items inside, compared to this, it was simply insignificant.
Even if I am completely ignorant about jewelry, the preciousness of this bead is still obvious and readily apparent.
They just casually tossed this to me?!
I was speechless with astonishment.
This guy is really rich.
only-
"I don't want it." I tossed the pearl in my hand aside casually. I continued to stare at him without even frowning.
An Ye's expression suddenly darkened. Before I could even see what he was doing, my arms were suddenly free. The arms that I had been holding tightly were suddenly released and then gripped my chin tightly.
It's the chin, not the neck.
Thank goodness.
I secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but was also furious.
Damn it, can't you be a little more civilized? You're always grabbing people. Damn it!
Are assassins so great?
Chapter 104: Water Mirror
"You don't want it? You don't even want something this priceless? Then what do you want from following me like this? Hmm?" His voice suddenly turned extremely cold, and the color in his eyes deepened, making his expression unreadable.
"Ouch, it hurts so much! Let go! I want you! I want you to treat me to dinner! I'm hungry, I want to eat, let go!"
This guy, why is he so paranoid?
Although I always act a little strange when I appear in front of him, it's not on my own, is it? Every time he appears, he scares me half to death.
The grip on my jaw was released, and I finally recovered, coughing desperately.
Without uttering a word, An Ye spurred his horse toward the rice stalk he had just pointed to.
"Please come in, sir." The waiter at the shop entrance greeted us with a fawning smile, bowing and scraping as he took the reins from our hands and ushered us inside.
An Ye remained silent, his face grim. Yet, the noble and aloof air he naturally exuded commanded respect. The waiter, observing his demeanor, smiled and said, "Please follow me, esteemed guests. This is a private room upstairs."
"No need, we'll just stay in the lobby." I casually found a prominent spot and sat down.
It seems that An Ye really dislikes showing his face in public, or rather, he doesn't want people to see him. Is he afraid of being recognized?
That's perfect! I'll just sit in the lobby; the more attention I draw, the better. I smiled sweetly and patted the seat next to me, calling out loudly, "Brother, sit here. I've checked, it's very clean here."
An Ye glanced at the noisy lobby, his lips twitched, stared at my bright smile, and finally slowly sat down.
"Sir, what dishes would you like to order?" the waiter asked with a smile.
I chuckled and took the menu from the little boy, flipping through it casually: "Are all the dishes you can cook on this?"
"Yes, sir. If there's anything else you'd like to eat that's not on the menu, feel free to ask. Our chef at Sui Ke Lai Fan Zhuang is a master chef who came from the palace. He can basically make any dish you can order." The waiter said with a boastful look.
"Really?" I suddenly laughed. "As long as I can point it out, he can do it?"
"Yes." The waiter puffed out his chest proudly.
"Hmm, in that case, give us two bowls of Crossing-the-Bridge Rice Noodles." I rested my chin on my hand, raised an eyebrow at Dark Night provocatively, and smiled.
Yunnan's Crossing-the-Bridge Noodles are a dish I love to eat in my own world. But I've never heard of it in this time and space. As I expected, the waiter was completely dumbfounded when he heard my words.
