Yan Feixi ignored Tang Yinfeng’s gaze and the tense atmosphere. His handsome face smiled slightly and said, “Of course, it’s an important matter.” He paused and added, “It has something to do with the Northeast.” Then he looked at the guard and smiled. “This is an important matter. It shouldn’t be conveyed by a little guard, right?”
As soon as he heard this, Tang Yinfeng broke into a cold sweat, and the tense atmosphere around him was on the verge of breaking out.
Yan Feixi definitely did this on purpose!
“Stop.” Just when Tang Yinfeng thought the two sides would fight, someone in the carriage made a sound.
Upon hearing the master’s order, the confronting guards immediately retreated.
Su Manlu didn’t lift the carriage curtain. Her voice was always cold. “What do you want to say, young master?”
Yan Feixi drove his horse close to the carriage curtain and waited, but no one came out. “I’m used to talking to people face to face.” He paused again and added, “This is the basic etiquette of talking with others. I believe Miss Su must also understand this etiquette after many years in business.”
There was a sound of gasping in the carriage, and then the curtain was pushed open, and the beautiful maid rushed out angrily.
“You——”
“Bi Luo.” A gentle voice stopped the maid. Su Manlu leaned out and looked at Yan Feixi with her beautiful eyes. Her face was calm. “What do you want to say to Manlu, young master?”
She finally looked at him in the eye.
This made Yan Feixi feel happy. His narrow eyes were curved, and his already handsome face made others unable to look away. “Are you finally willing to talk to me?”
Su Manlu was slightly stunned by his smile and words, and then her face turned cold, “If the young master just wants to tease me, then forgive Manlu for not accompanying you.”
“Wait.” Seeing that she was about to enter the carriage, Yan Feixi immediately grabbed her hand, but as soon as he touched it, Su Manlu immediately withdrew her hand and looked at him with a sullen face.
“Young master, please respect yourself.”
Her wrist was so thin that it would break if bent... The delicate touch was still in his palm, faintly scratching Yan Feixi’s heart.
And her cautious look made him laugh. “Don’t be nervous. I won’t eat you.” But it was obvious that Su Manlu didn’t find it funny. Her face was still cold.
Yan Feixi could only touch his nose and said to her, “I just want to tell Miss Su that we might not have time to enter the city today, so we will have to sleep outside tonight.”
“...Is this the important thing you want to say?” Su Manlu couldn’t believe it and felt more like being tricked.
Yan Feixi shrugged and looked at her seriously and innocently. “People’s basic needs are important in life, so of course they are important.”
“...” Su Manlu was speechless and could only stare at him, then rolled up her sleeves and entered the carriage.
Looking at the carriage curtain that the owner had lowered angrily, Yan Feixi curled his lips and smiled. He felt like the depression he had felt for the past ten days had disappeared, and he was finally in a happy mood.
Tang Yinfeng, who saw everything in his eyes, was even more suspicious. This was the first time he saw Yan Feixi teasing a woman like this.
Look at Yan Feixi’s smile, which looked like he’d caught a fish out of the pocket. He was not as depressed as before. He was obviously not in a good mood these days.
But now that Miss Su was paying attention to him and seemed to be annoyed by him, he was happy.
This... said that he was not tempted, was this true?
The carriage was parked in the forest, and several bonfires were around. The horses were tied to nearby tree trunks, grazing their heads down.
Although it was almost early spring, the weather in the Northeast was still cold. There was a heater in the spacious carriage. Su Manlu was half-lying on the brocade couch. Several gilt lacquer boxes were on the small coffee table beside her, and a pot of hot tea was also warming.
She wore a small mink fur coat embroidered in blue and white Hunan. Her black hair was not tied up and draped softly over her shoulders, and a warm silk quilt covered her knees.
Bi Luo took a thin piece of dough, and a few slices of meat from the lacquer box, put some vegetables on it, wrapped the dough, and handed it to her young lady.
Of course, when you went out, the food was not as good as at home. In addition, you were in the Northeast at this time. The food in the Northeast was, of course, not as exquisite as that in the South. They mainly used flour and meat. The most common way was to eat meat with flour cakes.
Su Manlu took the dough and took a bite. The slightly hard texture made her frown.
“Miss, are you not used to it?” Bi Luo asked while helping the young lady pour tea to make it easier for her to drink.
Su Manlu took a sip of tea and swallowed the food in her mouth. Just when she was about to speak, the carriage curtain was opened, and someone entered directly without the owner’s permission.
Bi Luo shouted angrily when she saw someone coming, “Who let you in? What are the guards doing...”
“Eat this.” Ignoring Bi Luo’s angry shouting, Yan Feixi handed the wooden bowl to Su Manlu. The smoking wooden bowl was filled with the aroma of meat.
“We won’t eat your food...”
“Do you want your young lady to starve?” Yan Feixi calmly turned sideways from Bi Luo. Bi Luo immediately choked because she saw that the wooden bowl contained not only broth but also boiled rice grains.
This food was indeed to the young lady’s taste, so Bi Luo could only shut her mouth.
Seeing that Su Manlu did not take the wooden bowl, Yan Feixi directly took the flour cake from her hand and put the wooden bowl in her hand. “Eat.” Then he bit down on the dough in his hand.
Su Manlu was stunned. “That I bit it...”
“Oh.” Yan Feixi nodded, ate the flour cake in a few bites, and poured himself a cup of hot tea to drink——using the same tea bowl that Su Manlu drank from, of course.
Su Manlu was dumbfounded and speechless for a moment.
Yan Feixi, however, had a natural attitude. He picked up a piece of meat and put it in his mouth. Seeing that she still didn’t eat it, he raised his eyebrows. “Why don’t you eat it while it’s still hot?” Then he winked at her frivolously. “Or am I so pretty that you’re dumbfounded?”
Su Manlu glared at him and wanted to drive him away, but the porridge in her hands embarrassed her to drive him away, so she had to lower her head, pick up the spoon, and eat quietly without paying attention to him.
