Chapter 402: Despicable
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Wei Liao had just tasted the wonderful feeling of being envied by a group of people. He hadn’t had enough yet.
If Zheng Changle also had a fan, he would never be able to show it off to others in the future.
How could he accept it?
Yu Niaoniao did not know what Wei Liao was thinking.
She just thought this guy was ridiculous.
She couldn’t be bothered with him. She prepared to walk around him and go downstairs.
Wei Liao extended his arm and blocked her way again.
“Did you hear what I said?”
Yu Niaoniao rolled her eyes and said angrily, “I heard you. No, please move!”
Wei Liao said, “You promised me before that the fan you gave me would be unique in this world. Don’t tell me you want to go back on your word?!” So that was what he was worried about! Yu Niaoniao was enlightened.
This fellow was even stronger. He did not even want anyone else to have the same fan.
Yu Niaoniao said, “Don’t worry. Even if I draw another fan for others, it will be another pattern. It will be completely different from the pattern on your fan.”
Hearing this, Wei Liao felt a little better.
But his tone was still tough.
“Can you not draw a fan for someone?”
Yu Niaoniao asked, “How can I earn money if I don’t draw fans for others?”
Wei Liao looked disdainful. “It’s just a thousand taels of silver.”
Yu Niaoniao laughed in anger at his tone.
“A mere thousand taels? That’s all? Brother, do you have a gold mine at home? A thousand taels is actually nothing to you. If you’re really so rich, why don’t you take out some money to help the poor?”
Wei Liao said slowly.
“I don’t see any poor people in the circles I usually interact with.”
Yu Niaoniao said, “I’m sorry, but I’m an out-and-out poor person standing in front of you. Can you give me some money?”
Wei Liao didn’t understand.
“You’re the Princess Consort of Duke Lang. Doesn’t he give you money to spend? He doesn’t look like such a stingy man.”
Yu Niaoniao immediately defended Xiao Juan.
“It has nothing to do with him! I want to earn money with my own abilities. I don’t want to be a rice worm that only knows how to ask men for money.” Wei Liao looked suspicious. “You don’t look like a self-reliant woman.”
Yu Niaoniao gritted her teeth.
“What do you mean? Are you looking down on me?!”
Seeing that she was angry, Wei Liao smiled.
“Don’t be anxious. I’m just telling the truth. You look like the kind of lazy person who doesn’t have any ambitions. You won’t sit if you can lie down. You won’t stand if you can sit. You just want to eat and wait for death every day.”
Yu Niaoniao was speechless.
Damn it! She couldn’t argue.
He was indeed talking about the life she had dreamed of!
Wei Liao took a step forward and bent down to stare into her eyes.
“You’re in such a hurry to earn money. Do you have some unspeakable secret?”
This fellow was indeed the Vice General of the Sky Wolf Guards. His thoughts were indeed very sharp.
Yu Niaoniao subconsciously tensed up. “I don’t have any unspeakable secrets. I’m upright. Don’t judge me with your dirty thoughts!”
Wei Liao smiled.
“You’re feeling guilty.”
Yu Niaoniao denied loudly, “I didn’t!”
Wei Liao rubbed his ears. “Keep your voice down. You’re going to deafen me.”
Yu Niaoniao pushed him hard.
“A good dog doesn’t block the way. Move!”
Wei Liao took the opportunity to stand up. “I’ll say it one last time. You’re not allowed to draw fans for others. Otherwise, I’ll tell everyone the truth that you’re Master Wang at the Village Entrance and let everyone in the Imperial
Capital know that the Princess Consort of Lang County secretly earns money by drawing third-rate novels.”
Yu Niaoniao said angrily, “I’m not drawing a third-rate storybook!”
Wei Liao said, “The setting in The Record of Phoenix Cry Nation is so exciting.
If the Chinese court officials find out that it was you who did it, guess what they will say about you and Duke Lang?”
Yu Niaoniao was immediately speechless.
She was not afraid of being criticized, but she did not want Xiao Juan to be used as a topic of conversation.
It was a long time before she spoke again.
“How dare you threaten me with such a thing. You’re despicable.”
Wei Liao wasn’t ashamed. Instead, he was proud. “Thank you for the compliment. I’m a bad person by nature. The more you call me bad, the happier I am.”
Yu Niaoniao felt that this person was most likely seriously ill.
She said angrily, “I’ll promise you. I won’t draw fans for others.”
There were so many types of comics around. Even if she didn’t draw a fan, she could still make other things, such as pillows, dolls, hands, screens, and so on.
Having achieved his wish, Wei Liao finally stopped blocking her and stepped aside.
When Yu Niaoniao walked past him, she really could not hold back the anger in her heart. She suddenly stretched out a foot and stepped on the back of his foot!
She stepped on it quite hard.
However, she was only a woman and had never practiced martial arts. Even if she used all her strength, it would be nothing to Wei Liao.
What Wei Liao really couldn’t stand was that this woman stepped on his instep and jumped up.
She was shorter than him, so her head bumped into Wei Liao’s chin!
This time, it really hurt!
Wei Liao covered his painful chin and reached out to grab Yu Niaoniao.
In the end, he missed.
Like a loach, the woman darted far away.
Wei Liao strode after her.
He had to teach this woman a lesson today!
When Yu Niaoniao heard footsteps behind her, she immediately ran even faster. Her two slender legs moved vigorously, like two rapidly spinning fire wheels.
In the blink of an eye, she was near the theater door.
Just as she was about to rush out the door, a large hand suddenly grabbed the back of her collar from behind.
She was forced to brake.
She turned around and saw Wei Liao staring at her angrily. His chin had clearly turned red.
Wei Liao gritted his teeth. “Run! Why aren’t you running anymore?”
Yu Niaoniao was a little afraid. After all, her strength was far inferior to the other party.
But on second thought, there were people coming and going around. He probably wouldn’t dare to really attack her.
So she mustered her courage again. “Men and women shouldn’t touch each other. Let go of me.”
Wei Liao sneered.
“Ha, now you know that men and women shouldn’t touch each other. Why didn’t you think of that when you lifted your hand to attack me just now?”
Yu Niaoniao retorted, “I didn’t lift my hand on you!”
Wei Liao said, “You didn’t lift your hand, but you lifted your foot! You even used your head!”
He really had to hand it to this woman. As the Princess Consort, she actually dared to fight with a man and was so shameless.
He wondered how Duke Lang could tolerate her?!
Wei Liao pondered over how he could teach this woman a lesson.
No woman had ever dared to provoke him like this. He definitely could not let her off easily.
However, she was the Princess Consort of Lang County after all. He could not use violence against her in public.
Just as Wei Liao was thinking about what to do next, he saw a figure from the corner of his eye..
