Chapter 1256: 159 Lonely Decade_2 Chapter 1256: 159 Lonely Decade_2 They were driving him out!
Cheng Haoxuan snatched up the Challenge Letter at his feet and leapt up with a swoosh, “I’m not leaving!
If you won’t battle my master, then you must take as your disciple and teach how to cook!”
Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow, looking at the red-faced, frantic Cheng Haoxuan before her as if he were an idiot, “Are you threatening ?”
Cheng Haoxuan swallowed, “If you think it’s a threat, then it’s a threat!
Anyway, you just have to take as your disciple; I want to learn cooking from you!”
“What if I disagree?” Lin Yuan was both amused and irritated, crossing her arms and raising her eyebrows with interest.
“Then, then I will…” Cheng Haoxuan’s eyes darted around and lit up when he saw the teacup on the table.
He grabbed the cup and stabbed it towards his wrist, “If you don’t agree, I’ll die for you to see!”
Pfft!
Xia Zheng couldn’t help but laugh out, tears almost streaming out.
Lin Yuan was also provoked into laughter by this familiar scene.
Oh right, when she went to Shande Hall to sell goji berries, she had threatened the shaless steward with a piece of broken porcelain.
But, she had used a shard that could draw blood with a light scratch, while Cheng Haoxuan was holding an entire teacup!
“Then, just die.
I’m really curious how you’re going to commit suicide with such a smooth-edged teacup,” Lin Yuan said with a wry smile, shaking her head.
She thought Cheng Haoxuan was not just childish but a spoiled young master through and through, with a laughably simple mind.
She couldn’t fathom how Madam Cheng raised him.
Cheng Haoxuan furrowed his brow, his shiny teeth biting his lip, and after a long inner struggle, he finally set the cup down with a sorrowful look, pleading, “Please take as your disciple.
Look, my mother has taken your sister as her disciple, can’t you take ?”
Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow, “Oh, Young Master Cheng, let’s get this clear.
My sister earned her spot at the Red Smoke Pavilion with her own skills, she didn’t use a teacup and the threat of suicide to get in.”
Lin Yuan narrowed her eyes and glanced at him sideways, “You didn’t ntion this, and I nearly forgot.
Hmph, you lothario, still owing a debt of love and yet thinking of coming to to ask for favors?”
Cheng Haoxuan was confused by Lin Yuan’s sudden change of topic and asked instinctively, “What debt of love?
I have no idea what you’re talking about.”
Still playing dumb!
For so reason, Xia Zheng took offense, exclaiming indignantly as if he were the one owed.
“Little brat!
Stop feigning ignorance!
You think we’ve forgotten about what happened on the day of the contest?
Hmph, Second Miss Tian’s reputation was nearly ruined by you, and you still pretend!”
While speaking, Xia Zheng pompously slapped Cheng Haoxuan on the head, smugly saying, “I’m not trying to lecture you, but a man should take responsibility.
Look at ; I’m even more handso and dashing than you, but I have never dabbled in flirtation!
My heart is only for your sister-in-law.
Even if soone stripped naked in front of , I would treat them as air!”
Lin Yuan rolled her eyes exaggeratedly; this guy just had to show off his faithfulness all the ti, didn’t he?
But even so, Xia Zheng was indeed quite the loyal man and was famously devoted among the n of the Xia family in the Capital City.
Otherwise, the proud Yao Hanai wouldn’t have settled for no one else but Xia Zheng.
Cheng Haoxuan felt both embarrassed and annoyed after being chastised by Xia Zheng.
After the contest ended that day, Madam Cheng rebuked him severely, and today’s attempt to beco a disciple led to an unwarranted scolding, leaving him with a bitter taste in his mouth.
“Hey, why does everyone think it’s my fault!”
Cheng Haoxuan stomped his feet in frustration, “I haven’t incurred any debts of flirtation.
Although I, the young master, am suave and people admire wherever I go, and won throw themselves at , I have always conducted myself with integrity.
I haven’t done anything untoward – I haven’t even looked, let alone touched or slept with soone.
I have no idea how I caught Second Miss Tian’s eye!
Hey, I was just doing a good deed by helping out!
Who knew that lending a hand would bring such trouble?
If I had known, I wouldn’t have bothered, really, it’s like attracting bad luck!”
