"Young Master has instructed that you are not allowed to take half a step out of the room. I am only following Young Master's orders!”He Yulang tidied up the books and walked to the bookshelf to place them properly. He cleaned up the leftovers, cutlery, and plates on the table and walked out of the house.
In the blink of an eye, more than a month had passed. Jiang Ling 'er was locked up like this. Other than He Yulang and the guard at the door who had captured her the first time, a maidservant called Qiu Ci came here. She came every three days to clean her house, change her bed, and take away the clothes that needed to be changed.
Since Jiang Ling 'er was staying here, He Yulang couldn't be the one doing all these things. It was normal for him to call a servant to take care of her. There were only these two people who came here often. Ever since He Yulang arrived here, he didn't talk to her much anymore. She didn't know if it was because she ran out as soon as she arrived, which made him unhappy. The servant girl called Qiu Ci was even less talkative. She only said' en en 'and' yes en'. The most words she said were Jiang Ling 'er asking her what her name was. She replied,"This servant is called Qiu Ci."
She seemed to understand why the young master He Yulang mentioned had prepared so many books for her. He was probably afraid that she would be silly in the room. Needless to say, these books were all very good. They added some fun to her boring imprisonment and became a good thing to spend time with.
Suddenly, the door opened. Jiang Ling 'er didn't need to guess to know that it must be He Yulang. Otherwise, who else could it be? She leaned against the windowsill and continued to read the words on the bamboo slip seriously without raising her head."Put it there for now. I'll go eat after I finish reading this part. The ancient collection in the lower left corner of the shelf is quite good. You should like it!”
This book was very interesting, and Jiang Ling 'er was in a good mood. She unconsciously said a few more words to him. Although she did not look up, the moment she opened the door, she could smell the fragrance of the chicken drumstick. There was also the sweet smell. It should be osmanthus taro and her favorite spicy fish!
Jiang Ling 'er heard the sound of footsteps and slowly walked forward. She heard the sound of dishes falling on the table and smelled a faint fragrance. That was…Jiang Ling' er raised her head abruptly and a beautiful face appeared in her eyes. There was a devilish smile on her face. It was really him. So he was the young master behind the scenes who kidnapped her. She remembered that fragrance clearly. It was his scent.
"Young Master Sorrow, look, have I gained weight?”Jiang Ling 'er didn't blurt out words like " why are you here " or " why is it you ". When she smelled the familiar scent, her heart skipped a beat. When she raised her head to confirm, she was very surprised, but after thinking about it, she wasn't as surprised.
The doubts she had before were also solved. For example, what kind of person could possess that precious wine jug, which guest of the Hundred Flower House it was…and why she was imprisoned. As for the sentence that she would starve to death in two days, she still couldn't understand. Logically speaking, he should have told He Yulang. Could it be that he was protecting her? How was that possible? She wasn't someone who treated everything as beautiful.
"You've indeed gained a lot of weight!" Imperial Dragon Keji was slightly stunned by this question. Jiang Ling 'er raised her head in surprise. Although it was only for a moment, he had already taken it in. He did not waste any time and did not speak to him in a normal way. He was sure that Jiang Yinkai had told her his identity. He had not just gained a little weight with this woman, but two times!
"This is all thanks to Young Master He's careful care!”Jiang Ling 'er put down the book and landed on the ground from the windowsill. She touched her chubby face in embarrassment. She looked in the mirror yesterday and saw that she had a double chin when she lowered her head. Her face looked like it had two steamed buns on it.
Ever since she came here, she had eaten four to five meals a day. In her spare time, she had all kinds of snacks and fruits. He Yulang would grant her all her requests and never stop her. From time to time, he would only mutter a few words like 'she really can eat' and 'she's not afraid of getting fat'.
With nothing to do all day, eating became the only choice for her to spend a lot of time. Otherwise, what else could she do? She would be dizzy from reading all day!
"You like this place?" Imperial Dragon Keji still had that devilish smile on his face. He had already slaughtered He Yulang a million times in his heart. Was he raising Jiang Ling 'er like a pig?! Fortunately, he was not fat to the point of being deformed. He was just a little more voluptuous. His face was a little rounder, but his beauty was still there. He hated ugly things the most. One more look and he would be in a bad mood for a few days.
"Chef is indeed not bad! His craftsmanship was quite good! It's better than my Blessing Spirit Building, much better than the Hundred Flower House!”Jiang Ling 'er praised him repeatedly. They were all sincere and honest, including the care she had just mentioned for He Yulang. It was also sincere. It was not necessary to say whether she liked He Yulang or not. First of all, she had to take good care of him.
"Then I'll execute him tomorrow. What do you think?”The first thing Yulong Keji did after he recovered was to visit Jiang Ling 'er. He didn't expect her to have gained weight twice. Although she was still beautiful, he felt that it was better when she was thin. He didn't know why he was unhappy. He thought that when she danced, she wouldn't be as light and graceful as before.
"I don't want to kill innocent people because of my greed!”Jiang Ling 'er knew that he was serious when she saw his expression. She didn't expect that her fat and thin body could kill people. She was worried about the chef's safety and her brows furrowed slightly.
"If you don't want him to die, then you have to slim down!”She would be his plaything in the future. How could she be a dancer from any family? She was as thin as she could be!
Yulong Keji had asked her about her condition before he came. How could she not gain weight with the way she ate every day? In his eyes, the only good thing about Jiang Ling 'er was that she danced. He had gone to the Hundred Flower House to see her once before and liked her very much. Letting Miss Yun Zhi of the Ji Nation be his dancer was a huge humiliation to her and the Ji Nation.
"Then I won't eat today!" Jiang Ling 'er looked at the delicious food on the table and swallowed her saliva. She spat out these words unhappily. Compared to killing a person, she chose to control her appetite.
"Eat it. Just be careful in the future!”Imperial Dragon Keji still did not forget the strange thing of 'starving to death in two days'. After all, he had seen it with his own eyes. Jiang Ling' er had fainted from hunger, and her breathing was weak. He knew what kind of person Jiang Yintian was. If he was so nervous, he must be dying! How would he know that it was because of love? Because he had never known the word love!
"Do you like reading this book?" After signaling Jiang Ling 'er to go eat, he walked to the windowsill and picked up the bamboo slip that Jiang Ling' er had placed there to read. He flipped through it and glanced at it."I like this book too!"
As soon as Jiang Ling 'er sat down, she hurriedly started eating. Just as she picked up a mouthful of food and put it into her mouth, she heard a voice behind her."It seems that we are of the same taste!"
Yu Long could only smile coldly. With a snort, he walked to the door and ordered someone to call He Yulang over."Go and get the remaining two scrolls!”The book was divided into three volumes. Jiang Ling 'er was reading one of them, the first volume.
Imperial Dragon Keji inadvertently glanced at the shelf and saw the crystal wine pot on it. His expression suddenly changed and he asked in a low voice,"You touched that wine pot!"
"Bam…Bam!" Jiang Ling 'er's face was filled with confusion. So what if the wine jug was touched? She saw that Yulong Keji's eyes were cold and there was some anger on his face. There was even killing intent hidden within.
"It's all this subordinate's fault for being nosy. Young Master, please punish me!”He Yulang had yet to walk out of the room when he saw that Yulong Keji had discovered it. He immediately knelt on the ground and confessed his guilt. He lowered his head and an uncontrollable smile appeared on his face.
When Yulong Keji saw this, he looked at He Yulang who was kneeling on the ground without saying a word. At this moment, the air in the entire room seemed to have decreased. Jiang Ling 'er felt that her breathing was not smooth and irregular.
"This subordinate knows that the lodge master likes to drink, and he mentioned the crystal wine pot. The lodge master made a fuss and wanted to see it, so this subordinate took it yesterday.”He Yulang felt uneasy. He wasn't sure if Imperial Dragon Keji would completely believe what he said, and he didn't know what Jiang Ling 'er would do."I didn't touch it, it was wrapped in cloth…"
"Get out and receive a hundred strokes of the cane!”Before he could finish listening to He Yulang's words, Imperial Dragon Keji stopped him with a lukewarm voice. The shock in that voice was not inferior to an angry shout, but even better.
After He Yulang obediently rolled out, Imperial Dragon Keji turned to face Jiang Ling 'er and pulled out a dagger from his waist. He walked forward and waved his sleeve, half-throwing and half-handing it to Jiang Ling' er. He said coldly without changing his expression,"Chop down whichever hand touched it.”
"I touched both my hands. Do I have to cut them together?”With a furious shout, Jiang Ling 'er threw the dagger at his handsome face and smashed it on his forehead. A smear of red seeped out, causing Jiang Ling' er to unconsciously take a step back.
From the moment she took the dagger, she had been afraid. She could feel that Imperial Dragon Keji really wanted to break her hand. This fear instantly turned into anger. Now, she was even more afraid. Looking at the bright red blood reflected on the dagger and feeling the killing intent that was about to burst out from Imperial Dragon Keji, she instantly felt her legs go weak.
"Then cut off both your hands. It's not convenient for me to help you!”Imperial Dragon Keji did not pay attention to his forehead. It was as if it was just a gentle touch. It did not hurt or itch. He did not feel anything.
He picked up the dagger from the ground and pulled it out. The sharp blade seemed to be shining. He pulled hard and pulled Jiang Ling 'er's hand over. He held it tightly and waved the dagger.
"It's just a wine pot! No matter how valuable it was, it was just a wine pot!”Jiang Ling 'er shouted as she struggled with all her might, trying to get rid of his grip. She did not want to lose her hands, but the strength of the Dragon Restrain was too great. It did not match his thin figure at all.
" Indeed... It's just a wine pot..." Imperial Dragon Keji stopped the moment the dagger was about to cut Jiang Ling 'er's arm. His expression was a little chaotic, and his killing intent instantly weakened. His movements stopped just like that, as if time had stopped.
