"Haven't you always wanted to escape and meet your parents? Do you want to ask them clearly?" Huangfu Qiye's expression was calm, and it was impossible to tell his true emotions.
She nodded.
What did he mean by saying that?
"I promise to let you return to the Tang family once to meet them and explain things clearly. But after that, you must obediently listen to me and marry me." He looked at her sternly, and his tone was filled with an authority that could not be rejected.
Tang Xiaowei was stunned.
Then, she remembered that she did not need to escape anymore. He had already promised to let her go out and meet her parents.
She didn't want to come back and marry him at all. This time, not only would she be able to see her parents, she might even have the chance to truly leave his side.
How could she refuse such a good thing.
"Okay, I agree. Then let's go now." She immediately agreed and stood up, looking as if she wanted to leave immediately.
Huangfu Qiye saw through her little thoughts, but he wasn't angry.
He knew that she agreed so readily. She must have thought that she would have a chance to completely leave his control after going out.
He could see that she was still too young and too naive.
The person that he, Huangfu Qiye, wanted would not be able to escape from his hands so easily.
Unless, he wanted to let her go.
Just like this time, if it weren't for his soft-heartedness and unwillingness to torture her, how could she sit safely in the dining room and wait for dinner.
At first, he had planned to let her starve for a few days.
But seeing her body so thin and weak and her leg injured, he suddenly couldn't bear to let her go.
"Go out tomorrow," he said in a deep voice. "It's dinner time now. Aren't you hungry? Sit down and have dinner with me."
Tang Xiaowei thought that she could leave now, so she didn't care about dinner at all.
Hearing him say that she could leave tomorrow, she stopped in her tracks.
She was originally hungry, but he was so angry that she didn't want to eat. Now she couldn't feel hungry anymore. She thought of his hateful look when he tortured her just now.
She shook her head. "I'm not hungry anymore. You can eat by yourself."
She turned around and was about to leave.
"SIT DOWN!" His cold voice sounded.
She felt a chill all over her body, but she didn't even look at him. She refused, "I'm sorry, I'm really not hungry. You can eat by yourself."
"It's fine if you don't want to eat. Sit down and keep me company!" He had no intention of letting her go.
Tang Xiaowei closed her eyes and still refused. "I'm really sorry, I'm not here to accompany you."
After she finished speaking, she turned around and limped away.
Huangfu Qiye did not make a sound again, nor did he chase after her. He sat quietly on the chair, his face as dark as death.
The servants in the kitchen had prepared dinner, and at that moment, they had just entered the dining room.
They placed the food on the dining table and were about to leave.
Huangfu Qiye suddenly stood up and lifted the tablecloth. All the food and utensils on the dining table crashed onto the floor.
Tang Xiaowei, who had not yet walked out of the dining room, heard a voice behind her. She could clearly feel Huangfu Qiye's anger.
He was actually this angry?
Before Tang Xiaowei could react, she felt someone approaching her. She turned around and saw that the two maids who had taken care of her the day before had already walked in front of her.
Her arms were once again held up by the two maids, one on her left and one on her right. They carried her back to where she had been sitting before releasing her and saying respectfully and gently, "Miss Tang, please take a seat."
Tang Xiaowei looked at Huangfu Qiye across from her, her expression cold. "Mr. Huangfu, I told you, I'm not hungry."
Just now, this man had not allowed her to eat. She was so angry that she did not want to eat and leave, but this guy had actually lost his temper.
Now that she had been captured, he must have ordered the two maids to do it.
Huangfu Qiye's anger seemed to subside a little after seeing her return. His expression was even colder than hers. He said in a deep voice, "I didn't ask you to leave, but you actually dared to leave?"
Tang Xiaowei frowned.
She was just about to leave, but he didn't allow it. That was why she left on her own. That was why he was angry?
Was he that petty?
"If I don't ask you to eat, you have to be hungry," he said again. His voice was filled with coldness. "If I ask you to eat, you have to be full!"
"Don't be so arrogant!" She didn't want to sit down and just stood there talking to him. However, he was so tall, and she felt a little pressured. Seeing that he even had to raise his head, she felt that she really didn't have any imposing manner.
Even if she stood face to face with him, even if he had just lost his temper in his childish way.
However, the natural noble temperament in his bearing could not be concealed from her no matter how hard she tried to ignore it.
She bit her lip and suddenly felt a little depressed.
Why did she have to face such a difficult demon?
"Do you still want to go out and see your parents tomorrow, Hmm?" He glanced at her and then sat down. He looked at her lazily and his tone sounded as if he did not care.
However, she was very clear that he was threatening her.
Tang Xiaowei really felt that he was too neurotic. One moment, he forbade her to eat, and the next moment, he wanted to force her to eat.
Sometimes he would get angry, and sometimes he would act as if nothing had happened.
No matter how angry she was in her heart, she didn't want to argue with him anymore. She could only try her best to calm down the anger in her heart. Then, she sat down calmly and said, "Okay, I'll eat."
Huangfu Qiye had been looking at her the whole time. Seeing that she had agreed to eat, his expression was no longer as cold as before.
He waved his hand, and the maid immediately went to the kitchen and brought the food back.
There were also maids who immediately cleaned up the debris on the floor.
After a while, the dining table was filled with delicious food again.
Tang Xiaowei was in a bad mood. Her mouth was dry and she didn't want to eat anything, but her stomach couldn't help but cramp. She was indeed hungry.
Dinner was Chinese food. She picked up her chopsticks and was ready to eat.
Huangfu Qiye suddenly said in a deep voice, "If you are not injured, I look forward to you serving me dinner."
Tang Xiaowei's hand that was holding the chopsticks paused.
Serving him Dinner?
Who did he think he was - the emperor?
She raised her head and looked at him incredulously and mockingly, feeling that he was really a madman.
Seeing her mocking gaze, Huangfu Qiye's gaze slightly darkened, and an indescribable anger suddenly rose in his heart.
"Tang Xiaowei, when you marry me in the future, I will be your heaven. You can only serve me." He forcefully suppressed his anger and barely spoke in a calm tone.
Tang Xiaowei had just taken a sip of the soup when she was suddenly choked by his words. She covered her lips and coughed a few times. "Cough, cough, cough..."
Only then did she respond coldly, "I'm sorry, I'm not a maid. I won't serve anyone."
"I'm not talking about the maid's service, I'm talking about the wife's service." He raised his voice.
She was stunned. Why did she feel that what he said about the wife's service was a little strange. She shook her head. Her expression did not change and she pretended to not understand. "I'm sorry, I'm so hungry now. My head is dizzy. I really don't understand what you're saying."
