In response, Dongfang Ming lowered his head and looked at the cup of tea in her hand. He didn’t have any intention of taking it.
Wang Xiangyun saw it was clear he had no intention of taking and drinking it so she said, “Brother Ming, giving you this herbal tea to drink is my farewell to you because I’m not going back yet.”
“…” Dongfang Ming heard what she said, glanced at her, and still didn’t say anything.
Whether or not she went back to the capital was none of his business and he didn’t want to know either.
The room went quiet for a while. It was so quiet Wang Xiangyun could hear her own breath. Although she didn’t like getting ignored, Dongfang Ming would always do this.
“Brother Ming, isn’t it a bit rude to ignore the herbal tea that is given to you?”
Wang Xiangyun moved the cup of tea in her hands closer to Dongfang Ming’s chest so that he could see it better and would have an easier time taking it!
Rude?
Dongfang Ming laughed softly. “Miss Wang, I believe you entered my room as you wished without my permission. I think that is much ruder!”
He didn’t even want to call her by her name right now. Calling her Miss Wang would set some distance between them and it was also polite.
Miss Wang? Hah… the corner of Wang Xiangyun’s mouth moved up and she felt a pain in her heart. However, she still held it in and didn’t get angry like an entitled young woman.
“Okay, it is my fault for not knocking and asking Brother Ming’s permission to come in. I apologize! Now, accept my apology by drinking this cup of herbal tea.”
As she spoke, she lifted it slightly higher. It was as if she would not give up if Dongfang Ming didn’t accept it.
Dongfang Ming wasn’t an idiot. He knew something was definitely up since she kept insisting that he drink this herbal tea.
After all, he had fallen for it once two years ago.
“Put it down. I won’t drink it.” Dongfang Ming turned around and wanted to walk out of the room. He wanted to go see when they could leave.
He didn’t bring much from the capital but it wasn’t little either. Some time was still needed for his things to be loaded up.
When Wang Xiangyun saw this, she anxiously went and blocked his way. “Brother Ming, this drink is my apology to you. You still need to take a sip even if you aren’t thirsty to show you accept my apology.”
She didn’t wait for Dongfang Ming to reply and continued to say, “This is just a small cup of herbal tea and not some poison. Aren’t you being too defensive around me? This hurts me.”
I am afraid it is something that is even scarier than poison! Dongfang Ming replied in his heart.
“If Brother Ming doesn’t believe me, then I will take a sip!” Wang Xiangyun said and moved the cup of tea near her mouth. She drank one-third of it and gave it to Dongfang Ming again.
Two years ago, she didn’t eat the thing she used to trick Dongfang Ming. This time, in order to succeed, she would also take it herself! Because she believed Dongfang Ming wouldn’t ignore her if she was drugged, right?
“…” Dongfang Ming felt annoyed and speechless at her persistence.
He reached out and took the cup of tea she was holding. However, he wasn’t going to drink it. “Miss Wang, I accept your apology but put this herbal tea away now!”
He then put the tea on the table and continued walking outside.
It didn’t matter if she put anything inside or not, he would not drink anything that she gave him.
Wang Xiangyun looked at his back, frowned, and showed a look like she was going to throw caution to the wind and go all out. She stretched out her hands, picked up the cup of tea, and drank it in one go. However, she didn’t swallow.
She immediately went in front of Dongfang Ming, stood on tiptoes, and wanted to feed it to him with her mouth.
Dongfang Ming reacted very quickly. He stretched out his hands to the area between them and pushed. Wang Xiangyun was pushed onto the ground and she also swallowed the tea in her mouth!
“Miss Wang, please conduct yourself with dignity! People will hate you and find you disgusting if you keep doing such shameless things!”
