Shi Yaoguang listened to the butler’s words, her face full of confusion, "Butler, what are you talking about?"
The butler, however, looked at her with an "I know everything, there’s no need for you to explain" gaze, "Madam, I can understand how you feel, but I hope that for the sake of how well the Third Master has always treated you, you won’t do anything to hurt him. Even if it ans I’m begging you, okay?"
Shi Yaoguang frowned, "When have I ever wanted to do anything that would hurt him?"
She thought for a mont and asked, "Is it Quan Sicheng who said sothing again?"
According to her, the only one who would deliberately slander her at this ti was Quan Sicheng.
Unexpectedly, the butler shook his head.
"The Fourth Master didn’t say anything; it was who ca of my own accord." He stiffened his neck, his face resolute as if ready to face death, "It’s that I have issues with what you’re doing."
Shi Yaoguang was even more confused, she hadn’t done anything, so why would the butler have issues with her?
The butler sighed, his expression one of feeling aggrieved on behalf of Quan Jinbei, "Madam, even if your reputation is not good, the Third Master has never mistreated you. But how have you treated him?"
"Don’t you think that what you’re doing is too excessive?"
Shi Yaoguang, with a blank face, "What did I do? How am I being excessive?"
"You still won’t admit it?" The butler was sowhat annoyed. He pointed at Wei Jinyan who was standing aside with gifts, watching the drama and enjoying the show, "What’s with him? Don’t tell you can treat him as if he’s thin air?"
Shi Yaoguang shook her head, "How can I treat a living person as thin air?"
The butler revealed an "I knew it" expression, "I knew it, Madam. How can you do this? Are you really treating the Third Master fairly?"
Shi Yaoguang: "..."
She pressed her forehead, her expression indescribable, "Butler, don’t you think there’s a problem with the way you speak?"
The butler looked confused, "What’s wrong with the way I speak?"
"Your way of speaking..." Shi Yaoguang coughed slightly, trying to spare his pride, "I feel that I don’t understand a single word you say, but maybe that’s my problem."
Speaking of this, the butler felt angry.
He looked at Shi Yaoguang, his expression full of disappointnt, "Madam, you’ve really gone too far. You can’t just act recklessly because the Third Master is willing to indulge you!"
Shi Yaoguang: "..."
This was clearly not going to be a fruitful conversation.
The butler seed to have a very big issue with her behavior.
But.
She herself didn’t even know what she had done.
Wei Jinyan watched the butler and Shi Yaoguang talking at cross purposes for quite a while, and he also felt sowhat speechless, "Your butler..."
As soon as he started to speak, the butler glared at him, "You be quiet!"
When he spoke, his tone was fierce.
Wei Jinyan instinctively shrank his neck, "Why are you being so fierce?"
The butler glared at him, "I’m fierce?"
Talking about this made him even angrier, "Look at you, you look like a decent human being. How could you do such a thing? Aren’t you ashad?"
Wei Jinyan was completely baffled, "Ashad? Why should I feel ashad?"
After saying this, his gaze fell on the gift he was holding in his hands.
The gift box was sothing Shi Yaoguang had shoved into his hands.
No, to be precise, she had lent it to him.
Shi Yaoguang had asked him to temporarily treat this gift box as a eting gift. Later on, he would need to return it.
There was a loan and there would be a return. Although lending gifts was a bit strange, it wasn’t sothing incomprehensible, right?
How did this beco shaless?
Wei Jinyan was utterly confused.
The butler was extrely annoyed, "Look, just look!"
He said to Shi Yaoguang, "Madam, look at this guy, all grins and shalessness. Does he even compare to a single hair on Third Master’s head? Tell , what do you see in him?"
At this point, Shi Yaoguang finally understood.
The butler had been rambling on because of a misunderstanding.
Wei Jinyan was also at a loss for words, as he seriously began, "Butler, you’ve misunderstood, we——"
"Shut your mouth!" the butler glared at him. "I’m usually very amiable, but my amicability is selective. I can’t be bothered with soone shaless like you!"
Having said this with pompous pride, he eagerly turned to Shi Yaoguang, as if expecting praise.
Shi Yaoguang: "..."
Wei Jinyan: "..."
After a mont of silence, his expression aged with weariness, "Do I really not look like a good person?"
The butler huffed, "Could anyone who degrades themselves to be soone else’s pretty boy be a good person?"
Wei Jinyan said, "I’m not a pretty boy."
"If you’re not a pretty boy, then am I one?" the butler retorted irritably, "One can live without achievents but not without pride! Is the rich lady’s al that tasty? Is being a pretty boy that easy?"
"Don’t just look at our madam being young and wealthy, but she is also..."
The butler thought about it and couldn’t co up with any negative points.
Truth be told, Shi Yaoguang was all rits.
As for flaws...
The butler couldn’t think of any at the mont.
In fact, if it were really about being kept, Shi Yaoguang, as a major sponsor, definitely had nothing to fault.
Not to ntion finding faults.
Being with her, even if it ant paying for it, there were still plenty of people willing.
Realizing he couldn’t find any faults, the butler also felt awkward for several seconds.
In the end, his concern for the Third Master outweighed the embarrassnt itself.
He forced a calm look and continued to earnestly implore Shi Yaoguang, "Madam, please be kinder to Third Master for the true feelings he has for you."
eting the butler’s hopeful gaze, what could Shi Yaoguang say?
She could only nod stiffly to show...
Okay.
Seeing her agreent, the butler was overjoyed.
When he looked at Wei Jinyan, he even trembled a bit.
Putting on airs, he squinted condescendingly at Wei Jinyan, and with a snort from his nostrils, he disdainfully said to Wei Jinyan, "Heard that? Our lady says you can buzz off!"
After finishing, he even made a dismissive hand gesture, "Take care, don’t let the door hit you on the way out!"
As he spoke, his eyes fell on the gift box in his hand.
"What’s this you’ve got here? Since it’s from the madam, just take it as a parting gift."
Having said that, he sighed with self-proclaid benevolence.
Looking at him like this, the three of them were at a loss for words.
These three included Quan Jinbei, who had maneuvered his wheelchair outside.
Upon seeing him, a look of tense concern imdiately crossed Shi Yaoguang’s eyes, "Why have you co out?"
Although she knew that Quan Jinbei’s "illness" was the work of Heavenly Dao, a plot device.
But, seeing how frail Quan Jinbei looked, Shi Yaoguang still didn’t want him to be out in the wind.
Quan Jinbei pressed his fist to his lips, coughed lightly, then glanced over at Wei Jinyan and asked Shi Yaoguang, "And who is this gentleman?"
