Chapter 69: Want to drink tea you brewed
Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
But in the ears of Huang Yue Li, those words became the opposite of their original meaning.
After eating her tofu, must this man use such a disliking tone to state she did not catch his interest!
Good. Very good. Extremely good!
Standing up, her finger pointed towards the door. With a smile that wasn't quite a smile, she said: "Since it is like this, why did you come? My back courtyard is very lacking and poor. I expect that it also won't amount to much in your eyes?"
Raising her chin, her tone was frosty while her eyes burned with anger. But it was because of this that astonished people.
Staring into that pair of brilliantly coloured eyes, the man felt bewitched by them.
He constantly felt that gaze was oh so familiar. Like he had been bewitched by those eyes, many years ago. Lost by her crafty and enticing smile.
Henceforth, he yearned it even in his dreams.
Even crossing the jade bridge of the yellow river, he would not be able to escape…...
But clearly his first meeting with this girl was only a couple days ago.
As the the man was distracted, his gaze towards Huang Yue Li turned even more profound.
On the other hand, Huang Yue Li became further enraged by his staring.
What was hidden within that lecherous gaze? Seeing this man's posing, could he really be a bit of a pervert? ?
After quite some time did the man regain himself. His eyes travelling over her taut face, his mouth hooked.
"It seems that you are really unwelcoming of this Lord?"
Huang Yue Li chuckled in response, "If the Lord Owner did not burst into my room during the night, humming and speaking unintelligent drivels, I would be quite welcoming."
Lazily, he replied: "How can you blame this Lord? It is you who does not the proper etiquette of treating guests. It has been quite some time since this Lord arrived, yet you have yet to even pour a single cup of tea. How do you expect this Lord to inform you of the news?"
Huang Yue Li said: "That is simple. Cai Wei….."
Raising her voice, she wished to ask Cai Wei to go brew a pot of tea.
Before the words could leave her lips, a warm and white as jade finger landed on her lips, silencing them.
Leaning forward, the man closed in and smirked: "Why are you calling the maid? This Lord.....wants to drink tea you brewed."
The dominating smell of a man assaulted her nose. His clear lips where in such proximity of her face, that a single incline of his face and they would kiss.
Instantly, Huang Yue Li cheeks were dyed red. Her breathing irregular.
Slapping the man's hands away: "Brewing tea the is fine, why was there is need for you to move your hands? But I must tell you, I only have cold water here. If you want to drink tea, you can only drink cold tea."
If not for the fact that she still needed to rely on him to increase her cultivation, she...endured!
But this debt she will remember. Sooner or later she will return it to him!
Watching her fake composure, he already guessed his thoughts.
But he had nothing to worry about. This little fox was destined to never leave his palms.
If in the future they are together and this little wanted to stretch her claws from boredom, he wouldn't mind playing with her. Making his Imperial Consort smile was worthwhile.
Following Huang Yue Li's hand movements, he leaned back to say: "Is there a problem?"
Eyes twinkling, the slender and boney hands landed on the the teapot lid. Soon after, hot steam began to rise from the spout.
It was clear to see that the water within had turned into boiling water.
Chapter 70: The taste isn’t bad
Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
Retracting his hand, the man smiled at Huang Yue Li, "The tea is hot now."
Unable to say anything, Huang Yue Li could only pour out a cup of tea. Once done, she pushed the cup towards him.
"For you, to drink!" She said in an ill tone.
He didn't take up the cup. Raising his eyebrows, he questioned: "What? This is the attitude that you give to guests? Speaking in such a rude tone, to outsiders it would seemed like you have some sort of grudge with this Lord!"
Eating so many benefits from her, how would she not a grudge?
Rolling her eyes are him, Huang Yue Li saw the the frivolous curve on his face. She couldn't help but want to give him a big slap!
But the man saw through her intentions, his gaze carrying traces of ridicule. Though his body was relaxed, his spirit encompassed the entire room. Every single detail and movement of Huang Yue Li's would not be able to escape his notice.
Biting her teeth, Huang Yue Li told herself to be level headed.
Looking straight at the man, she said in a unhappy voice: "Lord Owner, please drink the tea!"
The man still did not move.
Huang Yue Li was further angered and asked: "What is the matter now?"
"Inviting someone to drink tea, shouldn't you use both your hands and hand the teacup to them? Pushing and shoving the tea like this, isn't that too rude? And you are esteemed young lady from the Manor!"
Huang Yue Li smirked, "Is that so? My apologies, I did that incorrectly. Let me try again."
As she spoke, her hand went to pick up the teacup. But as she neared the man's face, she splashed the tea out towards his face!
Though the man was momentarily mesmerized by Huang Yue Li's smile, he still reacted when she moved.
Just as Huang Yue Li's hand began to tilt, her wrist was securely caught.
The slender jade hand with a strong as steel-like grip enveloped her tender hands. Firmly trapping them.
Huang Yue Li wished to retracted her hands. But even after several rounds of struggling, she was unable to move an inch.
Amused, the man continued to exert pressure. Bit by bit, little by little he pulled her hand and the teacup closer towards him.
Under the hateful gaze of Huang Yue Li's, the teacup and her hand arrived at his mouth. Lightly, he took a sip of tea.
Purposely or accidentally, his lip brushed with Huang Yue Li's fingers. His tongue gently slide over, leaving a faint damp feeling.
"The taste isn't bad." The man couldn't help but smile.
"You!"
As soon as her hand was free, Huang Yue Li vigorously wiped her hand on her clothes.
He smirked: "What's the matter? Was the tea too hot and burned Third Young Miss' hand? Let this Lord see it? This Lord has some ointment for burns, how about applying some?"
Hearing his words become more and more excessive, Huang Yue Li's patience ran out. With a loud 'bang' she slammed the cup onto the table.
"Okay, you have already drunk tea. You have also put up the necessary airs, what information do you need to pass on?"
Seeing her exasperated manner, he smiled secretly.
But he knew that this little girl's methods were many. As fun as provoking this little fox may be, she was only holding back due to some apprehensions.
If he really pushed her to her limits, forcing her hands, perhaps he would suffer a bit.
More importantly, the purpose of his visit was to provoke his future Imperial Consort a bit.
So, it should be about time he stopped. It was enough.
