BXBX NOVEL Chapter 126: The Li Family!
Pouring the Teacup, she silently took a deep breath and clenched her fist.
With that, she picks up the cup and places it, in front of me, " Young master, it\'s for you, " she mutters, nonetheless, my eyes were feasting on her breast.
" Hmm! " I slightly nodded my head and looked at the Teacup, it looked like a good tea as it had a good aroma and a feeling of spirituality.
" Pl-Please, wait for some moment, Patriarch will be coming here soon, it will take around 3 to 4 minutes, " she utters while her fingers interlock, she looks at the floor and stays there like a statue.
Thak!
I placed my Tea cup on the table while producing a loud sound.
" I think I have turned deaf, can you please repeat it a little louder, I couldn\'t hear it properly," I said, while looking at her shivering body.
" Em... Pa-Patriarch said, he have a small work, he will be here very soon, " she replied with a slightly bigger voice, while her legs began to shake even faster.
" Oh! Patriarch has some work? And what might that be? " I said with my cold voice, that echoed through the room.
" H-he is with his granddaughter Li Mei, he will be here very soon, " she responded while her fingers tapped against each other showing her nervousness.
" Work? I guess unemployed or free people like me can\'t understand Patriarch Li well, hmm? What does Lady think about this matter? " I simply sat on the chair while crossing my legs and asked her.
Hearing my question, she turned and looked at me with widened eyes full of fear, " I-I don\'t know, "
" You don\'t know? Or, you don\'t wanna answer... By the way, may I know about your identity or I don\'t need to know about such matters? " I couldn\'t help but tease her even more.
" Me? I-I am Li Su, the daughter-in-law of the Li Family, and mother of your soon-to-be maid Li Mei," she responds hurriedly.
Her face turned red, while she was taking some deep breaths.
I guess she can\'t breathe peacefully here in my presence.
" Oh! Then, why are you standing... Come and have a seat, let\'s have Tea together, " - Bai Lung.
" No! I dare not. How can I be worthy of sitting next to Young Master, " - Li Su
" Cough! Cough! You honor me, but, I am not that special, since, in said you should sit here, I believe it would be appropriate for you to sit here, isn\'t it, " my ice chilling voice ran across the room.
Hearing this, she had an anxious face, " Uhmm " she nodded her head and sat on the empty chair beside me.
There were four chairs, and she was sitting in the chair far away from me.
She perches nervously on the edge of her chair, maintaining a safe distance from me while her hands are clasped tightly in her lap, betraying her inner turmoil despite her composed exterior.
Every now and then, she steals furtive glances at me from time to time, as if to check my mood or waiting for an opportunity to escape this tense situation.
Sipppp! ( Tea Sipping )
Meanwhile, I lean back casually in my own seat, while sipping the tea.
Sipp!
Sipp!
Sipp!
There was a silence, where only the sound of my sipping could be heard, nothing else.
While sipping my tea I continue to observe Li Su with a mixture of curiosity and amusement.
The silence between us only stretches out like taffy, while she just sits there in her chair in fear.
She seems really uncomfortable, keke! What will happen if I ask her to strip?
Shaking my head and removing such thoughts, I looked at her, " The tea is finished, could you please refill it, " I said.
" Eh? S-Sure, " she mutters and picks up the teapot, she once again bends over showing her cleavage to me while she pours the tea.
" Hmm! This time, I will make sure to drink my Tea slowly after all, I was a little rash previously since, patriarch Li still hasn\'t arrived yet," saying that I looked straight into her eyes, and from her eyes, I could see her trembling soul.
" I guess a big man like him doesn\'t care about the face of us youngsters, isn\'t it? "
Hearing this, her eyes widened even further, betraying a mix of fear and uncertainty.
She nervously fumbled with the teapot, causing a small spill outside the cup, as her trembling hands struggled to maintain composure.
" N-no, Young Master, it\'s not like that. The Patriarch... he values everyone, young and old, how can he not give you face," she stuttered while her voice barely above a whisper.
" OH! Then the patriarch must love her grandaughter greatly as spending time with her is more valuable than spending time with me," saying that, I wiped the tea she spilled.
After that, I picked up the cup and looked at her, " Spilling tea is a sign of a bad omen, I guess, the Li family might be in trouble soon, don\'t you think? "
Hearing this, she looked even more scared as she took two steps back subconsciously while her forehead and neck began to sweat. " Haha! The young master must be joking, how can such a thing exist?" she muttered expending a fake laugh.
" Hmm! Are you trying to tell me, I know nothing about the world? Are you suggesting that I am wrong?... Then, please enlighten me, let me hear some deep wise words from you," I couldn\'t help but respond to her words instantly.
" T-This? " she became more anxious, as she looked at the floor, " N-No! That wasn\'t my meaning, I mean... How can our Li family suffer a bad omen," she responded while she was already on the verge of tears.
" What do you mean by Li family? Even royal families suffer bad omens, Li family is just a small piece compared to it, " saying that, I took another sip of tea.
