Ling Xuejiu’s face turned red as she glanced at Leng Xuan, feeling a bit annoyed. She had wanted to prove that even without Leng Xuan at ho, she and Xiao Jie could take care of themselves. Yet, she hadn’t expected that cooking dinner would turn out to be so difficult. Sighing, she went out with Li ngjie.
Shaking his head, Leng Xuan began preparing dinner for the two young ladies. Before long, a sumptuous spread of delicious dishes was on the table, overwhelming the senses with their aroma. The young ladies, particularly Miss Li, who was starving by then, were tempted by the enticing scent, and eagerly picked up their chopsticks to eat.
Leng Xuan didn’t have much else to do, so he sat at the table, watching the two young ladies finish their dinner, ready to wait for them to eat and then clear the dishes.
Li ngjie, while wolfing down her al, said cheerfully, "Cold Bodyguard, it’s often said that to conquer a man, one must first conquer his stomach. This seems to apply to you as well. You’re almost conquering our stomachs. Don’t you agree, Xue Jiu?"
Ling Xuejiu’s face flushed, and she huffed, "You’re the only one who could be conquered. If he doesn’t disdain you, then you might as well marry him."
"Uh-huh! Sure!" Li ngjie actually nodded, turned toward Leng Xuan with a mischievous smile, and asked, "Cold Bodyguard, would you be willing to marry ?"
Caught off guard by her words, Leng Xuan felt awkward. Although he was aware of Li ngjie’s quirky nature, responding in front of Miss Li was not appropriate, or else he would definitely have flirted back. Wisely, he chose to remain silent, coughing twice as if he hadn’t heard.
Seeing his reaction, Li ngjie imdiately put on a pitiful look and said to Ling Xuejiu, "Xue Jiu, what does your Cold Bodyguard an by this? I’m practically throwing myself at him, and he’s still not interested. I’m quite the beauty, isn’t this a blow to my self-esteem?"
Ling Xuejiu’s cheeks colored slightly. Xiao Jie, that cheeky girl, must be doing this on purpose, right? What does she an by ’your Cold Bodyguard’? It sounds quite ambiguous, doesn’t it? She glared at Li ngjie and spat out, "What does that have to do with ? Humph, no one thinks you’re mute if you don’t talk." With that, she paid no more attention to Li ngjie, hastily ate a few bites, and went upstairs. She was truly afraid that Li ngjie might say sothing even more embarrassing, and every ti Leng Xuan was ntioned, her heart would flutter uncontrollably. She didn’t know why.
As soon as Ling Xuejiu left, Li ngjie beca even bolder. She smiled and said, "Cold Bodyguard, it seems like Xue Jiu is interested in you."
Leng Xuan felt much more relaxed and teased, "Whether Miss Ling has feelings for , I don’t know, but I know you have feelings for ."
The usually bold Li ngjie didn’t back down and asked, "So, would it be okay for to marry you?"
"Sure!" Knowing the young girl was joking, Leng Xuan played along with a laugh, "As long as you dare to marry, I dare to take the plunge."
Hearing this, Li ngjie rubbed her forehead in distress and said, "But Xuejiu and I made a pact. We would marry the sa man; she would be the first wife, and I’d be the second. How about you make an effort to secure Xuejiu first? That way, you could kill two birds with one stone."
Leng Xuan was suddenly at a loss for words. Miss Li really had a way with shocking statents! However, deep down, he was surprisingly not averse to the idea. After all, what man could truly resist the prospect of the two girls Ling and Li marrying him at the sa ti? Such stunning young ladies were hard to co by, and there were two of them together no less?
Of course, Leng Xuan took Li ngjie’s words rely as a joke; he didn’t believe that the two young ladies would actually have feelings for him.
