Chapter 38 is for you, all of it is for you.
"You really enjoy accommodating me that much? The guy's already at your door, and you won't even tell him to get lost. Do you have no temper? Or are you just hoping I'll kick you out so you can go back to your hometown and feed the pigs, huh?!"
He reached out and grabbed his chin, showing no mercy, causing Shi Nianzhi's brows to furrow.
“I have a temper. If you want to bring someone else back, you should send me back to my hometown first. This order cannot be reversed.”
Shi Nianzhi held Lu Jiunian's chin and added, "Don't keep pinching me, either my wrist or my chin, it hurts."
He struggled with all his might, using every ounce of strength he had, and finally managed to pry Lu Jiunian's hand off.
He took a step back and looked at Lu Jiunian with a fierce expression.
Lu Jiunian lowered his hand. "You don't like him, yet he still opened the door for him?"
"He called me and told me to come down and open the door. He said you should drink..."
Before Shi Nianzhi could finish speaking, the man coldly interrupted him, "If he doesn't like it, then tell him to get out!"
"I......"
Shi Nianzhi was stunned for a moment.
Lu Jiunian's impatient voice asked, "Do I need to repeat myself?"
"Need not."
Shi Nianzhi looked at Ding Qianqian sitting on the sofa.
He was about to speak.
Ding Qianqian stood up on her own, smiling obsequiously, "I'm sorry, Third Master, I disturbed your rest. I'll get out of here now."
As he brushed past Shi Nianzhi, he gave her a provocative look.
Ding Qianqian left quickly, before Shi Nianzhi could tell her to get lost.
Shi Nianzhi pursed his lips, took two steps back, and looked at Lu Jiunian's cold profile. "He's gone."
"Go and brew some hangover tea."
Lu Jiunian had drunk a bit too much, and he sat on the sofa rubbing his temples.
"You brought him back, and you want me to chase him away? You want me to be the bad guy? You like him so much, I think..."
What are you thinking?
The man suddenly interrupted in a cold voice.
Shi Nianzhi looked up and met his cold gaze.
He was silent for a moment, then said, "I think I can grant your wish."
There's something on your face.
"Um?"
Shi Nianzhi touched her face, feeling around everywhere, "Where?"
"Lips".
"Hmm? I don't think I touched it."
Shi Nianzhi is simple-minded and her attention is easily diverted.
Lu Jiunian raised the corners of his lips slightly, picked up the teacup on the table and played with it in his hand, his voice casual, "Go and take a look."
Shi Nianzhi actually went and took a look.
He came back and said seriously to Lu Jiunian, "I checked, there's nothing there. What's extra? Tell me."
"mole."
Shi Nianzhi touched her lips. "No, I didn't see anything."
"Bang----"
Lu Jiunian's teacup hit Shi Nianzhi's feet, startling her.
His smile turned icy. "If you know you don't have any, go down and make some hangover tea. Don't try to play matchmaker with your cheap words. Get out!"
He drank a bit too much today and wasn't in much spirits, otherwise he wouldn't have dismissed Shi Nianzhi with just a teacup.
Given his usual temperament, if Shi Nianzhi dared to say such things, he would first restrain him.
Shi Nianzhi turned and took two steps, then turned back as if suddenly realizing something, "You mean the matchmaker? That thing on the side of your lip isn't a mole, that's a wart!"
Lu Jiunian picked up a teacup again, but Shi Nianzhi had already disappeared.
Lu Jiunian slammed the teacup down on the table, feeling that he would be driven crazy by this little rascal sooner or later.
Shi Nianzhi stood in the kitchen brewing hangover tea. He followed the steps that Aunt Zhang had taught him last time. He didn't really know the dosage, but he brewed it with utmost care.
When he was about to serve the tea, he remembered the time he had spilled the hangover tea on Lu Jiunian.
My face involuntarily turned slightly red.
Shi Nianzhi brought out the hangover tea, but this time he didn't hand it to him, afraid of spilling it.
He placed the cup and saucer on the table.
Lu Jiunian lowered his eyes, picked up the glass, took a sip, and put it back because he felt it was too hot.
Shi Nianzhi stood to the side, thought for a moment, and then asked, "Did you... you know... him?"
The man who had been resting on the sofa with his eyes closed opened them, his gaze extremely aggressive. "Which one?"
"It's the one you used on me."
"I've given you so much, which one are you referring to?"
Shi Nianzhi cleared his throat. "Bed."
As if afraid Lu Jiunian wouldn't understand, Shi Nianzhi simply added, "Go to bed!"
Do you think you have the right to tell me who I sleep with or whether I sleep with them?
Shi Nianzhi said innocently, "Why don't you like me? Why won't you let me go? I can earn money to pay you back for my dad's medical expenses. I didn't mean to take your money. I've always wanted to pay you back. Give me a number of the money I spent here, and I'll pay you back, I'll pay you back everything."
Lu Jiunian knocked the hangover tea off the table; this was the second time he had thrown something tonight.
"You're such a useless piece of trash, how are you going to pay me back? Sell a few pigs, harvest a few acres of wheat? How long will it take me to get that back? I have very little patience! Listen, I don't need you to pay me back. You just stay with me obediently until I get tired of you."
"When will you get tired of me?"
"It'll be soon."
Lu Jiunian suppressed his anger, but spoke with extreme calm.
Shi Nianzhi's voice was on the verge of tears, "How long is 'soon'?"
"Maybe a lifetime, maybe two or three years, maybe tomorrow!"
The man's voice grew colder and colder as he spoke.
“When you picked me up, you told my dad that you would treat me well. My dad said that if you didn’t like me anymore, you should send me back, and you agreed.”
"How old are you? If I remember correctly, you're 19, right? Do you still treat your dad's words as gospel?"
Shi Nian was stunned. He looked at Lu Jiunian, and after a long while, his voice was soft and heartbreaking, "You lied. You said you were good to me, that was a lie. You said you didn't like me anymore and would send me back, that was a lie too. You knew that I would feel bad if you were close to someone else and brought them home, and you still did it. I may not be good at studying and I may not be smart, but that doesn't mean I don't know that what you and that man did was cheating, that was betrayal!"
After saying so much in one breath, Shi Nianzhi took a breath and said, "Our family owes you a lot, and I owe you even more. I know that, and my dad also said he wants to repay your kindness. But that doesn't mean you can cheat on me or betray me. I can stay by your side, but not as your partner."
"Fine, since you don't want this identity, then you can be a servant here."
Shi Nianzhi nodded, "Okay."
He was surprisingly calm.
Lu Jiunian was furious. Couldn't he tell that he was just saying it out of anger?
When will I finally learn to give in to him?!
Lu Jiunian's eyes grew colder and colder. "Sweep up the floor."
Shi Nianzhi turned around, then came back after a while, "Where did you put the broom?"
"You're asking me? You have to ask me about something like this? What are you good for?"
"But I can't find brooms or other tools."
Lu Jiunian's handsome face was gloomy as he sarcastically remarked, "If you can't find it, just pick it up with your hands!"
Shi Nianzhi squatted down, but before he could pick up two pieces of broken porcelain, he cut his hand.
He clutched his bleeding hand, got up to get a tissue, and tripped over the sofa.
He fell forward, his head crashing into Lu Jiunian.
