Chapter 316 Mistress seriously?

Chapter 316 Mistress seriously?　　Lang could understand how her husband was feeling at the moment, she too was severely disappointed in her family when they kicked her out of the family after she got sick and could no longer work. She was the breadwinner of her family and her sister was nothing but a good for nothing lazy bum but because her mer gave birth to a proper son, her parents doted on her the most and despised her branch of the family. She had worked hard until she couldn't even move a single one of her fingers but what she got, in the end, was nothing but a stab in her back.

She hugged Zhu Qian and let him cry out his grievances, her husband was too upset because of what happened to their son and had no chance to let out his own sufferings. Being betrayed by those whom you trusted —— this kind of betrayal was something that Lang didn't wish even her enemies would ever face. 

Once Zhu Qian was done crying, he hiccuped and pulled away playing with the strings of Lang's shirt. " I will wish you good luck, remember not to show any mercy even on my account. They touched our son, and should pay for their sins accordingly."

" I won't" promised Lang but just as she was trying to pull back, her gaze fell on Zhu Qian's bunny red eyes and her heart soften. She raised his chin with the tip of her finger and kissed him hard until he was breathless.

" Wife you——"

" Don't show such expression to me, it makes me want to bully you," said Lang as she turned around and strode out of the house, leaving a completely speechless Zhu Qian.

He was just crying! How come he showed an expression that made Lang bully him?

Of course, he would never get the chance to question her and even if he did, Zhu Qian was afraid that he might get bullied even more if he dared to ask it.

" I would like to offer you some tea or something but I don't think you would want that, so I will go straight to the point and bite the sword, why are you here?" asked Xiang Bei as she faked a smile at Lang, she didn't know what she did wrong that the troublemaker Yu Dong's servant who was equally just as troublesome came to her tavern. " And before that, I would like to know why didn't you use your hands and knocked on the door before barging inside? I would have appreciated it."

Xiang Bei was having the time of her life with the newly recruited mer, she was this close to getting a taste of the mer and seeing for herself whether or not he was just as sweet as he looked but then the door of her office barged open and came in Yu Dong's troublesome servant with a look that demanded all her attention. And of course, Lang had all her attention given that the mer who was on her lap scrambled outside with a terrified yelp.

" I used my hands to take care of the bodyguards that you stationed outside your office," said Lang as if it was the most obvious thing to say.

When Xiang Bei heard her answer, her face hardened and she turned to look at the mammy who was standing beside her. The latter already had her head lowered and didn't look Xiang Bei in the eyes which caused the latter to crouch down and tilt her head uncomfortably before wriggling her finger. " Raise your head, raise your f*cking head and look at me properly."

The mammy had no choice but to raise her f*cking head and look at Xiang Bei whose entire face was full of incredulity. " This is the best batch of bodyguards you could find?" She deadpanned as she pointed at Lang who was calmly sitting in front of her like she wasn't the one who was being talked about at the moment. " Look at her and then look at all those mammies you hired for taking care of me, a single woman!" She emphasised. " A. SINGLE. F*CKING . WOMAN took care of those mammies in minutes! Are you serious?"

" Mommy Xiang, I swear the slave trader said that they were the best——"

" The slave trader said that they were the best, blah, blah, blah." mimicked Xiang Bei with a childish voice. " What do you mean by said? You should have checked the batch before purchasing them!"

" How was I supposed to do that, mommy?"

" What do you mean by ' how'" said Xiang Bei with a frown " Your old bones are so sturdy you should have just taken a few hits and checked it, was that too hard?"

The mammy: "…." Too hard? Of course, it was hard! She was already in her fifties, what did she want her to do now? Tweak her long pants into shorts and wrestle with the youngsters?

" Excuse me?" said Lang as she interrupted the argument that was going to break at the moment. " If you are done, can we talk about business?"

Xiang Bei wanted to shout 'what business? I am not going to do any business with you!' But then she remembered that she had no bodyguard to defend herself and she was alone with a crazy freak who can take ten sturdy mammies at once. So, she swallowed her words and faked another flattering smile as she spoke, " Business, what kind of business? Can you explain it in detail?"

Lang didn't explain in detail instead she raised her hand and started to take out something from her cloth bag that she was carrying on her back. Seeing this Xiang Bei jumped and shouted, " What now? Didn't I just agree with you? What are you taking out now?"

Surprised by her shout Lang waved the portraits in her hands. "They are just pictures….."

Xiang Bei: "….." well f*ck.

The mammy who was so embarrassed that she hid her face with her hands: Mistress seriously?
