126 Something Must Be Wrong!
Xiao Juan called someone in to clean up the dishes.
The person who came in was Meng Xizhou. When he saw the empty bowls and plates on the desk, he could not help but be stunned.
Didn’t Duke Lang never eat in the Mirror House?
Why was he making an exception today?
Something was wrong!
Meng Xizhou was very nervous.
He asked carefully as he studied the change in Duke Lang’s expression.
“How do you feel, Your Highness? Are you feeling unwell?”
How could Xiao Juan not see through Meng Xizhou’s thoughts?
However, he could not explain and could only reply simply and roughly.
“Stay out of things that don’t concern you. Hurry up and clean up.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMeng Xizhou immediately shut his mouth, not daring to ask again.
He quickly cleared the dishes and slipped away with the food box.
Xiao Juan straightened his expression. “Miss Yu, come over. I have something to tell you.”
Yu Niaoniao stuck her head out from behind the screen. “What’s the matter?”
Xiao Juan had no choice but to turn to look at her.
“I’ve seen all the paintings you drew in the interrogation room today. You’re very good.”
Yu Niaoniao smiled. “Hehe, I know I’m good at drawing too.”
Xiao Juan was speechless.
This woman really didn’t know what politeness and humility were!
He continued calmly, “Lo Pingsha suggested a plan to me. He wants to be able to implement your kind of painting in the Justice Department. I need your help with this.”
Yu Niaoniao said, “You want me to teach painting? That’s not a problem.”
Xiao Juan was a little surprised.
Any skill was precious these days.
However, Yu Niaoniao seemed to be completely unaware of this.
Whether it was cooking or painting, she could easily teach others. She was not worried that her disciples would cause her to starve to death after mastering her skills.
He really didn’t know whether to call her generous or silly.
Fortunately, Xiao Juan was not the kind of person who liked to take advantage of others. He said honestly.
“Having you teach people how to paint is an extra job. I’ll make it up to you separately. What do you want?”
Yu Niaoniao said without hesitation, “Money.”
Xiao Juan fell silent again.
This woman really did not hide her greedy nature at all.
Yu Niaoniao rubbed her fingers. “In terms of numbers, the more the better.”
Xiao Juan took out a stack of banknotes.
“Is that enough?”
Yu Niaoniao straightened her arm and took the banknotes. She tapped them. There were a total of 320 taels.
She quickly folded the banknotes and stuffed them into her arms, a bright smile on her face.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Enough, enough! Thank you, Your Highness. You’re really a generous superior. It’s my fortune to work under you.”
Xiao Juan looked at her miserly expression and chuckled.
“It’s my blessing to have a subordinate like you.”
Yu Niaoniao looked at him in a daze. “Eh? Did you smile just now?”
Xiao Juan said indifferently, “You’re wrong.”
With that, he turned back to his work.
Yu Niaoniao said, “You were smiling just now! I saw it. The corners of your mouth were like this.”
As she spoke, she poked the corner of her mouth with her finger, forcing a strange curve.
Xiao Juan glanced at her from the corner of his eye and saw her strange smile. He instantly felt uncomfortable.
Although he rarely smiled, it was impossible for him to smile like that!
It was simply blinding!
Yu Niaoniao said, “Baby, give me another smile. I want to see it.”
Xiao Juan said perfunctorily, “One hundred taels for each glance.”
Yu Niaoniao gasped. “Why don’t you go and rob! The most popular top host in the Imperial Capital is not as expensive as you!”
Xiao Juan was speechless.
