Chapter 11 This is More Like a Couple

Chapter 11: Chapter 11 This is More Like a CoupleFor a servant to insult their master, that's an absolute taboo. In ancient times, it would have been a capital offense, even gods couldn't save them.

Even if he's her own nephew—so what? Even if he were her own mother—so what?

If he doesn't suppress this matter, doesn't deal with this idiot, then when Lu Qing loses his temper, it will already be too late.

However, what Housekeeper Li didn't expect was that, at this moment, Lu Qing spoke up.

His face was cold and furious as he pointed at the coffee on the table.

"Drink it."

Housekeeper Li didn't dare say anything else. This was already the greatest mercy Lu Qing could grant him, considering he had taken care of the old master for years.

He understood immediately. So, without hesitation, he grabbed the coffee, forcibly pried open Xiao Qin's terrified and struggling mouth, and poured it in, not caring whether it was scalding hot.

"Get out."

Seeing the outcome, Lu Qing remained expressionless. He only uttered one word before continuing to read and sip his tea.

Housekeeper Li, as though granted amnesty, immediately dragged Xiao Qin out of the room in a hurry.

As for Qin Miaomiao, she sat elegantly and composed the entire time, smiling faintly.

From beginning to end, this woman only did two things: swapped the coffee and looked at it. She didn't do anything else, yet she managed to assert authority.

This made her weight in Lu Qing's mind shift just slightly.

"So, she's no longer that useless fool? Interesting."

At this moment, Qin Miaomiao also smiled lightly at Lu Qing. Her lips curved upwards, revealing two adorable dimples, her eyes forming crescent shapes. It was the first time she smiled so brightly at him, and his gaze darkened as an inexplicable emotion seemed to rise.

Seeing this different side of Qin Miaomiao, Lu Qing's lips also curled into a slight smile as he patted the sofa next to him.

"Uh, I'll just sit over here. Um, you keep reading, go ahead and read."

Seeing Lu Qing's gesture, Qin Miaomiao suddenly felt like she was playing with fire, her face full of awkwardness.

But Lu Qing once again patted the sofa, his gaze leaving no room for refusal.

This instantly made Qin Miaomiao feel like she was sitting on pins and needles. This guy—what the hell is he trying to do?

But if she didn't go sit next to him, the servants would notice, and that would mean she broke the agreement!

This infuriating man—his gaze clearly said it all, like he was deliberately breaking the rules!

Left with no choice, Qin Miaomiao steeled herself and got up. Just then, the old master's door opened, and Qin Miaomiao felt like she had been granted a reprieve as she rushed in that direction.

This panicked, fleeing look unexpectedly made Lu Qing chuckle as he stood up and followed her.

The doctor stepped out and spoke a few words to Lu Qing, roughly about how the old master's condition was currently weak, that he couldn't withstand any stress, and must rest properly.

Nodding to show his understanding, the two entered together. Qin Miaomiao, as though out of revenge, suddenly hooked Lu Qing's arm and walked in.

The unexpected move instantly made Lu Qing extremely uncomfortable—even a bit flustered. But the more he tried to push her away, the tighter she clung to his arm.

Her face still carried an innocent, harmless smile. "If we're acting, we have to do it thoroughly, as you said. Don't blow our cover."

Revenge! This was absolutely revenge—this woman was definitely interesting.

Seeing this young couple appearing so affectionate, completely unlike the rumors before, the old master lying in bed revealed a gratified smile.

"Now this is how a young couple should look."
