Chapter 29: Expressing Sincerity

  After the two maidservants left, Mu Yang lay down on the bed they had made. The clothes that had been drenched earlier were also warmed up by her and were almost completely dry, so there was no need to take them off.

  Although her hands and feet had regained their freedom, no one was watching her, but she still felt weak all over, and she knew that there should be guards outside. She decided to lie down and rest her mind, hoping that Gu Qianyi would keep his promise and let her leave tomorrow.

  Because of being tormented by Gu Qianyi for most of the day, and also having a fever and falling ill, Mu Yang's spirit was not good, and he soon fell asleep.

  When she woke up again, the sunlight outside had already shone through the window glass into the room.

  She opened her eyes and saw Gu Qianyi sitting there with his legs crossed, looking at her in a leisurely and enchanting manner.

  Seeing her wake up, his good-looking thin lips lightly opened: "Awake? It seems you slept well last night!"

  "Thanks to you, I'm so weak and spiritless, of course I would sleep more soundly." Mu Yang's light tone carried a hint of sarcasm.

  "Hmph! It seems that the lesson I taught you last night wasn't enough! Last night, you just agreed with me to follow my lead and not go against me, but now that you've opened your mouth to speak to me, you're already being sarcastic and provocative?" Gu Qianyi said disapprovingly.

  "I... I'm sorry! Maybe I had a fever last night and my head is still a bit dizzy, thank you for the bedding, I slept very well last night. Can I go back to school now?" Although he rested for a whole night, Mu Yang still didn't have the energy to argue with him again, thinking that it was better to be wise and not provoke him into anger, letting him send him back first before saying anything else. As for revenge... a gentleman takes his time!

  Upon hearing Mu Yang's tone soften, Gu Qianyi finally said with satisfaction: "Don't worry! Later I will personally send you back to school! And now, you must express your sincerity to me, so that I can believe that you will do everything according to my wishes."

  "How am I supposed to express it?" Mu Yang asked helplessly.

  "Wait for me while I have breakfast!" Gu Qianyi coldly threw out a sentence and turned to walk forward.

  Muyang hesitated for a moment before quickly getting up and following Gu Qianyi.

  Last night, she was making do with everything. In order to be vigilant at all times, she didn't even take off a single piece of clothing before going to sleep, so she didn't need to wear clothes. As for brushing her hair and washing her face... it seemed like there wasn't even a bathroom in this room!

  "I say, Master Qian Yi, I have no problem serving you breakfast, but can you first find me a place to freshen up? In this state, I'm afraid you won't be able to eat your meal."

  Gu Qianyi turned his head, took a look at the disheveled Mu Yang, furrowed his brow and instructed the butler who was closely following him: "Take her to get cleaned up!"

  Muyang finally let out a sigh of relief as the housekeeper walked towards the dressing room.

  When reappearing beside Gu Qianyi, Muyang's spirit looked much better.

  "Come over! Sit in front of me and feed me!" Gu Qianyi commanded coldly.

  What? Feed him?

  Mu Yang looked at the table in front of Gu Qianyi and saw that there were about a dozen dishes on the long table, two bowls of rice porridge, and a plate of pastries.

  How extravagant! Shameless!

  In her heart, Gu Qianyi cursed him: "It's best if there's something wrong with this food and he chokes to death!"

  If she could, she really wanted to take this opportunity to give him a laxative! Unfortunately, her subordinates didn't have such things at the moment, but next time she would definitely prepare a pack and carry it with her...

  "What are you dawdling about? Don't you want to feed me?" Looking at Murong Yang's blank expression, Gu Qianyi unhappily shouted at her again.

  Reminded by him again, Mu Yang finally came back to his senses and forced a smile: "It's not that, I just saw so many dishes and didn't know which one to feed you first, Master Qian Yi."

  "Hillbilly!" Looking at Mu Yang's expression, Gu Qianyi guessed that this Mu Yang probably hadn't seen so many delicious dishes before.

  No wonder she doesn't know how to hold her chopsticks!

  "Then give each one a little!" Gu Qianyi ordered.

  The chef in his house, who cooks for him every day, has long known what dishes he likes to eat and what dishes he doesn't like. So, the dozen or so dishes on this table can be said to be all his favorite dishes. He also wants to try a little of each dish, otherwise it would be too greasy.

  When Mu Yang heard Gu Qianyi's command, she reluctantly walked to his side and sat down, picking up her chopsticks. Just as she was about to feed him, her stomach suddenly growled loudly. Her face flushing with embarrassment, she tried to cover her belly, but Gu Qianyi still looked at her mockingly: "Hungry? Then hurry up and finish feeding me. Maybe I'll take pity on you and give you some of my leftovers to eat!"

  Actually, he alone can't eat that much, preparing so much was originally for her share, but he won't say it.

  Muyang listened to Gu Qianyi's words, feeling extremely indignant in his heart. He forced a smile and said: "What is Young Master Qianyi joking about? How dare I eat the leftovers of your meal? It's better for me to go hungry, it's better for me to go hungry!"

  "Alright! Hurry up and feed me already!" Gu Qianyi was impatient with Mu Yang's explanation, and he didn't think she was tolerating it just fine either.

  Mu Yang endured the hunger in her stomach, and with chopsticks, fed Gu Qianyi the dishes on the table that looked delicious.

  "Eat! Eat! It's best if you eat yourself to death!"

  To distract himself from his hunger, Mu Yang asked while feeding Gu Qianyi, "Young Master Qianyi, where exactly are we?"

  "My home!" Gu Qianyi replied simply.

  "Your home? Why can only see you alone, but did not see other people in your family?" Murong Yang exclaimed, he actually brought her to his home?!

  Gu Qianyi coldly glanced at Mu Yang: "Is there something wrong with your eyes? Can't you see all these people serving me? How can you say that I'm the only one here?"

  "What I mean is your parents or siblings and other people like that..." Mu Yang explained, of course she could see the people waiting on him!

  "I don't have any siblings, and as for my parents, they are very busy with work, so they rarely eat at home!"

  Gu Qianyi subconsciously finished answering Mu Yang's words, and suddenly became aware of how he had answered her those boring questions.

  "Who gave you permission to ask me these things?" Gu Qianyi's face fell as he coldly rebuked.

  "I was just casually asking, you don't have to answer if you don't want to!" Murong Yang said with a pout.

  She was just casually asking, but didn't expect him to actually answer her. If he wanted to answer, that's his business, what does it have to do with her?
