Chapter 16



The butler was extremely surprised, as he never expected that Auston would change his decision to dig out his eyes because of Ruan Tang's words. He immediately bowed with gratitude and retreated.

He felt that he needed to re-evaluate this Duchess whom he had previously ignored...

After all, the Queen could decide whether he lived or died, and this Duchess, whom he had not taken much notice of before, now seemed to be able to decide whether he was in good order in the palace.

The butler was not the only one who was surprised. The other male servants standing by also showed strange expressions when they saw this, but they were afraid that they had offended Austin again, so they all lowered their eyes and restrained the emotions on their faces.

Even Ruan Tang, the instigator, had never thought that he could change the decision of the evil duke so easily.

Austin looked at Ruan Tang steadily, as if nothing had happened just now, and asked: "Why don't you continue eating? Aren't you still not full?"

"Then... I'll just keep eating." Looking at the moody Auston, Ruan Tang felt very uneasy. She had no idea what nerve she had touched just now in this madman that made him listen to her.

I don’t know if it’s because I eat so happily and have a strong appetite.

He picked up the chopsticks again, picked up the food and put it into his mouth, but maybe it was because of what happened just now, Ruan Tang couldn't eat much, and felt that these delicacies were very difficult to swallow.

But looking at Duke Austin who was staring at her, Ruan Tang did not dare to stop, for fear that she would anger this madman who had finally calmed down.

I can only continue stuffing food into my mouth like chewing wax.

"If you don't want to eat, then don't eat. No one is forcing you." Austin looked at him for a long time, and suddenly spoke after feeling that Ruan Tang looked very painful.

Ruan Tang looked at his scary look, not knowing whether what he said was true or not, whether he really didn't want to eat or was forcing himself to eat more.

But she felt that she had lost her appetite and couldn't hold on any longer. Ruan Tang immediately decided to take what he said as true, no matter whether it was true or not. She immediately put down her bowl and chopsticks and said to the male servant standing beside her: "Give me a cup of coffee, thank you."

While speaking, Ruan Tang had been carefully observing Austin. She heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that he did not react to her eating.

After experiencing the terrifying scene just now, the butler served her much more carefully than before.

Ruan Tang picked up the coffee and took a sip, feeling relieved. She felt much more relaxed.

The Duke's Mansion not only has delicious breakfast, but also brews very fragrant coffee...

Austin frowned as he watched Ruan Tang drinking coffee with relish, then he looked at the tea in his own cup and suddenly lost his appetite.

As soon as he showed his dissatisfaction, the male servant who was serving him immediately took away the black tea and replaced it with a cup of coffee, the same as Ruan Tang's...

Auston followed Ruan Tang's example and gently took a sip of the coffee. However, as soon as he took a sip, he felt the bitterness make his face wrinkle. He spat the coffee back into the cup with an unhappy look on his face. "What is this? Why is it so unpalatable?"

Seeing this, the butler who had just replaced the coffee for him turned pale with fright, trembled, and even held his breath unconsciously.

He was afraid that if he angered the Duke, he would end up like the butler and have to hurt himself. After what happened to the butler just now, he didn't even dare to defend himself.

They were afraid that the noisy noise would make the Duke even more angry and the punishment on them would be even more severe.

"I don't like adding sugar and milk to my coffee. I just like strong and pure coffee beans ground freshly... the taste is just that bad. Sorry, sorry to bother you." Ruan Tang was terrified. Seeing that what had just happened was about to happen again, he couldn't help but speak up to defend the servant.

In fact, Ruan Tang himself was not sure whether he could convince this madman, but he felt that he had to give it a try so as not to let others suffer unnecessary disaster.

When Auston heard Ruan Tang speak, he frowned unhappily, but turned his eyes away, not looking at the servant again, and just snorted: "Are all the things you like so weird?"

"This thing is so bitter, how can it be good to drink? It's really hard to raise..." He complained about Ruan Tang with dissatisfaction.

But she didn't say anything to the servant...

This means letting the servant go.

The servant immediately showed surprise on his face. He didn't expect that the Duke's anger would subside so quickly this time. However, he quickly restrained the expression on his face, lowered his head and stepped aside.

Ruan Tang looked at Auston in surprise and immediately smiled at him: "My taste is indeed a bit weird."

He suddenly felt that this crazy duke seemed to be quite easy to talk to... as long as he could find his point...

And where exactly is his point?

Austin looked at Ruan Tang, snorted softly, immediately put down the coffee cup in his hand, pushed his wheelchair and left the restaurant without paying any attention to anyone.

As a duke, Austin actually had some official business to deal with. He spent the whole morning finishing his work and was a little unsure about what to do next.

"My lord, do you need me to arrange a performance for you this afternoon, or take you to the arena or the interrogation department?" Aaron, the personal butler, saw that his master was not interested, so he stepped forward and suggested some of Auston's favorite projects in the past for his entertainment.

Auston hadn't seen such bloody and cruel scenes for several days. He felt itchy in his heart, so he opened his personal terminal and planned to go to the performance venue or the interrogation department to have some fun with those criminals.

No, as soon as I opened my personal terminal.

Ruan Tang sent a message to the butler Seth in the morning to remind him that the Duke was coming and told Seth not to come over. The message that was hidden a little bit popped up immediately.

Suddenly, Austin found it quite interesting and didn't even want to go out.

His frown suddenly relaxed, and he ordered Aaron, "No need, don't go out today, change clothes for me and take off the mask."

So, after not seeing Seth for the entire morning and half of the afternoon, the strange male servant with a disfigured face appeared in front of Ruan Tang again.

Around 3:00 p.m., Auston brought afternoon tea and gently knocked on Ruan Tang's door: "Madam, this is afternoon tea in the mansion."

At that time, Ruan Tang was staring blankly out the window at the pitch-black darkness.

Seeing Set, he immediately smiled politely and said, "Thank you, just put the afternoon tea aside."

After he finished speaking, he no longer glanced at the sumptuous afternoon tea, and instead stared out the window in a daze again...

"Ma'am, you don't look happy. Why is that?" Austin noticed that he was in a bad mood. He had a smile on his face, but the smile did not reach his eyes.

Ruan Tang thought that after spending the past two days together, their relationship was quite close, and she did not mind the servant's inappropriate questions and offenses.

He just stared out the window in a daze, "...Nothing."

"Is it the Duke who makes you unhappy? So you are unhappy?" Austin felt that as another owner of this mansion, no one except him should be able to make Ruan Tang unhappy.

Seeing that he was determined to get to the bottom of the matter, Ruan Tang had no way of telling a male servant about the pressure the Queen had put on him. She immediately looked out the dark window and said casually, "... because I don't like darkness, I like the natural climate with sunshine and night, and the Duke's Mansion only has night, so I'm not happy..."

In fact, this Duke's mansion with eternal night did make him quite uncomfortable. It was always in darkness and he could only rely on lights to see things.

He is now living a life where he has no idea what year it is.

Austin looked at Ruan Tang in surprise without saying anything. He never expected that this was the reason why Ruan Tang was so unhappy.

Tsk, I've heard that Omegas are hard to raise, and it's true. They are timid, soft-hearted, and afraid of blood. Not only do they eat weird things, but now even darkness can make them unhappy...

It's really troublesome.

What's wrong with the night? It could make him so unhappy.

Auston was feeling annoyed in his heart, but he showed nothing on his face.

Seeing that he was silent, Ruan Tang did not take the initiative to talk to him, but chose to continue staring out the window.

Ruan Tang was not in good spirits that day so he went to bed early. After falling asleep, he didn't even know whether Duke Austin came to suck him or not.

Because he went to bed much earlier than usual, he woke up very early the next day... He even woke up before Auston came to suck his spots as usual.

After opening her eyes and sitting up, Ruan Tang was completely stunned.

Because the Duke of Austin's mansion, which had been dark all the time, suddenly lit up.

The bright sunshine shone into his room through the window, not only making the entire room brighter, but also brightening Ruan Tang's heart.

Ruan Tang didn't wait for Sett or Auston. The moment she saw the sunlight, she opened the door and grabbed a male servant who was working. She pointed at the bright sunlight outside the window and asked in confusion, "What...what's going on?"

Isn't the Duke of Austin's mansion Eternal Night?

"Madam, the Duke heard that you don't like darkness. So, last night he ordered the restoration of the normal climate operation of the mansion..." The butler's attitude towards Ruan Tang was extremely cautious and respectful.

Ruan Tang was completely stunned.

He never expected that the Duke of Austin would know that he casually said he didn't like the darkness, and he never expected that he would change the weather of the entire mansion for him.

But he was not the only one who was shocked. Everyone in the Duke of Austin's Mansion was shocked...

No one had ever thought that their eccentric Duke would actually change the habits he had maintained for many years for an Omega, just because he didn't like the darkness.

It seems that the weather in this mansion is about to change.
