Xiao Xun hurriedly followed up and said in disagreement, “Young Madam, Young Master only likes to drink coffee and not tea. Have you really not known this for such a long time since you married?” She asked with a skeptical look.
Upon hearing this, Luo Xi’s face immediately fell. She looked at Leng Minxing and complained, “If you don’t like drinking tea, why didn’t you say so earlier? I’m exhausted brewing tea every day.”
“Who said I don’t like it?” Leng Minxing’s lips twitched slightly as he spoke against his conscience.
“But she said you only like to drink coffee!” Luo Xi pointed at Xiao Xun, feeling wronged.
When Xiao Xun heard Leng Minhang say he liked tea, her expression changed.
Leng Minxing glanced at Xiao Xun indifferently. Although he seemed expressionless, Xiao Xun felt an invisible pressure.
Suddenly, she broke out in a cold sweat.
Although she didn’t understand why the usually cold and unfeeling man would change in front of this woman, she knew that her previous actions had annoyed him.
“It’s Xiao Xun who overstepped. Please punish her, Young Master!” She stepped back two steps and lowered her head respectfully.
It seemed she still knew her place with Leng Minxing, although she was somewhat dissatisfied with Luo Xi.
Luo Xi clicked her tongue. She wanted to test just how bold this woman was. But she was just a paper tiger, afraid of the strong!
If it were another maid, she could easily dismiss them, but this woman had someone backing her up. It was the person who had taken care of old lady for thirty years. At least, Luo Xi understood that the relationship was far deeper than her own as a granddaughter-in-law who had just married in a few months!
Ah, the old lady meant well but always ended up causing trouble.
She thought that her people were all loyal to her, so she kept bringing people in. She didn’t realize how many hidden troubles she was inviting.
In the previous life, Xiao Xun came late, as the kidnapping incident had not occurred at that time.
Xiao Xun was brought here for Bai Yaya’s use.
Because of her arrival, Bai Yaya often came here under the pretense of visiting a friend.
Additionally, being Sister Li’s daughter gave Xiao Xun a lot of privileges. She was respected both in the Leng family and here, making her seem more like a young lady than a maid.
Even Leng Minxing was slightly gentler with her.
Generally speaking, Leng Minxing wouldn’t care about such matters.
Just as this thought crossed her mind, she heard the cold voice of the man beside her: “She should be punished.”
Luo Xi: …
Xiao Xun’s eyes instantly turned red.
Sister Li, who was standing nearby, couldn’t bear to watch. From her view, her daughter hadn’t done anything wrong. She was only concerned for the young master.
But why should she be punished for such a small thing?
Even the old lady wouldn’t do this!
She stepped forward a few paces and gently said, “Young Master, Xiao Xun is new here and still adapting. She is just worried about your previous habits, which is why she spoke up. I hope you can forgive her this time, it won’t happen again. I will definitely teach her well.”
Luo Xi looked at Leng Minxing.
This Sister Li was not someone to offend. Otherwise, you might face difficulties.
“Auntie Li, you might not understand why I am punishing her.” Leng Minxing said coldly.
Sister Li paused and quickly realized what he meant.
Her expression turned unhappy. It was only the second day, and she was punished by the master. Wouldn’t that be a source of ridicule if it got out?
Looking at Luo Xi, who showed no change in expression, she quickly adjusted her posture and scolded her daughter.
Both mother and daughter are idiots 🙄 so what if they have the so-called backing of the older madam. At the end of the day he’s still their boss and still has the last say. They’re just maids they should know their place.
