Chapter 1769: Chapter 1769 I Have No Appetite
“…” Qi Ruigang clenched his fists, his chest heavy, feeling somewhat uncomfortable.
“I know I treated you badly before, but now I’m treating you well. What else are you dissatisfied with? Do you still wish I treat you poorly?!”
See, the kindness he offered her felt like charity.
“If you truly care about me, then don’t restrict me. Let me do whatever I want; otherwise, being constantly caged by you makes me feel like a pet.”
“I’ve told you, I’m keeping you out of this for your own good!”
“I won’t get involved, I just want to understand the situation.”
“You want to understand the situation, I’ll tell you every day. There’s no need for you to find out personally!” Qi Ruigang still showed no sign of giving in.
Mo Lan felt frustrated, “In short, can I make a phone call or not?!”
“No!”
“Qi Ruigang, get lost!” Mo Lan forcefully pushed him aside, wishing he would vanish from this world.
Why does such a domineering and unreasonable man exist?
Who does he think he is, to restrict her freedom?
Mo Lan’s gaze turned icy; this sort of man, she would never consider all her life.
Qi Ruigang’s face grew dark; her cold attitude was what he despised the most.
But when it came to the Nangong Family’s issues, he avoided them as much as possible, and if she got involved, it would only endanger her further.
No matter how angry she got, he would not let her get involved.
“Let me tell you again, you are not allowed to meddle in their affairs. From now on, you can’t even contact Qi Ruisen. I’ll have someone watch you; I mean what I say!”
Qi Ruigang said angrily and stormed off in fury.
Mo Lan frowned; was he intending to imprison her?
If Yufei needed the ring to save her life, and she couldn’t give it, what would happen?
Mo Lan sat on the bed, not knowing what to do.
Unable to go out, she’d miss the best timing.
…
Mo Lan didn’t eat dinner that evening.
Upon learning this, Qi Ruigang’s face turned terrifyingly grim. He sent the servants to persuade her to come down and eat, but they returned unsuccessful.
“Go again! Tell her, if she doesn’t eat, you’ll all have your salaries docked for a month!”
The always unlucky servants begged to be spared!
The servant went back upstairs to knock on the door: “Madam, the master said if you don’t eat, we’ll all have our salaries docked for a month. Our salaries don’t matter, but your health is what truly matters; please eat something?”
Mo Lan opened the door: “I have no appetite, tell him I can’t eat.”
“But…”
“If he cuts your salaries for a month, I’ll make up for it. Don’t let him know.”
Servant: “…”
Madam, are you using your private money?
Mo Lan closed the door, and the servant had to go down to report back.
“Master, Madam said she really has no appetite…”
Qi Ruigang’s face turned even darker and more dreadful.
Mo Lan was the most considerate towards the servants because they treated her well and had accompanied her for many years.
Usually, threatening her via the servants worked perfectly.
However, now, this tactic was ineffective!
Qi Ruigang threw his chopsticks down: “If she doesn’t want to eat, then fine, if she’s got the nerve, let her go without food for her whole life!”
Standing up, he left the untouched dinner table behind.
…
Mo Lan took an early bath and went to bed.
Qi Ruigang pushed the door open and saw she was already lying down.
He glanced at her and went to the bathroom to shower.
Previously, he and Mo Lan each used a separate bedroom, though they were a couple, they rarely slept together.
