Chapter 490
Tang Zhou held out his own hand: “Give it to me. I’ll drink it myself. I’m not that picky, and it’s not like I’ve lost my hands or feet.”
However, Leng Chenmo stayed silent, but not without making clear his intentions. He ladled out a spoonful of soup, blew on it gently, and offered it to Tang Zhou, signalling him to take a sip.
Troubled, Tang Zhou pursed his lips: “I’m not a woman, I don’t need to be spoon-fed.”
“Who was it recently spouting off that Tang Zhou is a girl?” Leng Chenmo retorted without missing a beat.
Tang Zhou: “…”
Well, fuck me!
He actually dared to mock me for being a girl! But I’ve never lived my life like a girl. For the past twenty years, I’ve lived a completely manly life, tough and straightforward, not so weak, and definitely not so fussy as to need my soup spoon-fed.
Tang Zhou silently cursed to himself, but opened his mouth and let himself be fed a few spoonfuls. He initially thought that this was rather silly, but after a few sips, he started to enjoy it. The peaceful atmosphere made him feel awkward, prompting him to find a topic to chat about: “This soup tastes pretty good. You didn’t make it, did you?”
“No, but next time I’ll learn how to make soup,” Leng Chenmo replied.
“No need, why don’t you stand up for yourself instead of being so submissive, like a sponge or cotton ball?”
Having the former head of the Leng’s Family cooking for him should be thrilling, but the patriarch isn’t putting up any kind of fight. He just does whatever he’s told, making Tang Zhou feel an absence of triumph.
How many times had he wished for Leng Chenmo to lose his temper, so that he could have a proper excuse to send him packing. However…
Why can’t he bring back his authoritative aura as the former head of the Leng’s Family? Why is he always appeasing him? Not interesting at all!
Tang Zhou spoke candidly: “I think it was more impressive when you jumped out of a plane, mowing people down with your gun. Honestly, you don’t have to pander to me all the time. Show the power and dominance you once held as the head of the house. Go back to the Leng’s Family and take care of Leng Weixuan. Continue being the patriarch, so you don’t have to suck up to me, catering to my needs all the time!”
If not, I don’t see a way to send you away. How am I supposed to live my future days?
However, Leng Chenmo unexpectedly threw back the sentence, unfazed yet somewhat provoking: “I don’t feel oppressed. These days are not bad, having you watch my back. It’s quite exhausting not having anyone protect me when I was the head of the house. This is a good chance to enjoy a new life where I’m protected.”
Tang Zhou: “!!!” noveldrama
Tang Zhou: “I never thought you’re someone who can’t take a defeat. After one failure, you don’t plan to fight back? Do you plan to be subdued your entire life, to be my lackey, doing everything I ask you to?”
Leng Chenmo nodded: “Why not? You provide me with food and clothing, even a suit of the best quality.”
Well, fuck it! This guy actually plans to live off him for the rest of his life! How convenient!
Tang Zhou, irritated, stated: “I’m telling you now, I’ll pay the penalty in one year at most. After that, you can get lost! Don’t plan on sticking around for the rest of your life! I, Tang Zhou, am not stupid. Why should I provide for you with food and clothes forever? Just because you think I’ve got you hooked, you can live in comfort, with no worries for the rest of your life? Even after marriage, there’s the seven-year itch, which makes divorce inevitable. We’re just put together by the powers that be, so don’t dream anything else!”
Trying to do so secretly in a lifetime, he won’t be able to hide his secret from Leng Chenmo forever!
Once Leng Chenmo finds out about his flaw, who knows how much he’ll loathe him then!
