Chapter 62 - 63: His Punishment 1
He lazily leaned back on the sofa, exuding an inviolable dominance and nobility from head to toe.
Everyone in the hall was shocked by this aura that only came naturally to nobility.
The maids’ eyes sparkled with admiration and astonishment.
Only Nangong Yaoling could perfectly embody a blend of wickedness and aristocratic elegance on his own.
Even in his rage, even when wielding demon-like power, he was impossible to hate.
His exquisite appearance and inherent arrogant demeanor stirred the hearts of those before him more intensely than anything else.
It was simply incomprehensible why the young lady would oppose such a perfect man.
Xia Xiaonuan was completely unaware that even if Nangong Yaoling tortured her, others would still see it as her fault.
Just like the star effect—being handsome means being forgiven by fans for any wrongdoing.
Being ugly would lead to scathing criticism!
Stars are like this, let alone someone who holds wealth, status, and looks all in one like the King of Eurasia, Nangong Yaoling!
And Xia Xiaonuan, going up against Nangong Yaoling, was like a domesticated kitten fighting with the king tiger of the forest.
She felt like she was about to go mad.
If she had a knife now, she wasn’t sure she wouldn’t rush up and stab him right in the heart.
She closed her eyes and reopened them.
"Honorable President Nangong, shall we go upstairs?" To appease him, it couldn’t be done in front of so many people, right!
"Right here, in front of everyone." His cold voice instantly shattered her fantasies! His lips curled up, Honorable President Nangong?
This woman is really quick to change face!
Xia Xiaonuan: ...
"I’m a bit thirsty." Nangong Yaoling glanced at the water cup in front of him, speaking nonchalantly.
Yun heard him and instinctively wanted to step forward to pour water for him. But as soon as she moved, she was frozen in place by Nangong Yaoling’s icy stare.
Helplessly, Xia Xiaonuan stepped forward and poured a cup of cold water for Nangong Yaoling, placing it before him.
"It’s too cold." He merely touched it and then coldly pushed it away.
Xia Xiaonuan poured out half the water and added some hot water, placing it back in front of him.
Nangong Yaoling raised an eyebrow and glanced at her sideways: "Feed me."
Xia Xiaonuan: ...
Endure, must endure. Xia Xiaonuan told herself, not for her own sake, but for the innocent Yun and all the servants of the Nangong Family; she couldn’t lose her temper.
She picked up the cup and placed it at Nangong Yaoling’s lips.
Nangong Yaoling suddenly grabbed her other hand, catching her off guard, nearly making her fall.
The man’s body was very warm, making her feel like she was combusting just by being near him, making her uncomfortable.
The water in the cup splashed out, drenching the carpet and the coffee table, some even spilled on Yun and several maids nearby, but no one dared move, merely stood silently with their heads down.
"Let go of me!" Xia Xiaonuan wanted to struggle, but Nangong Yaoling grabbed her cup, drank a sip of water, then yanked her face towards him.
Xia Xiaonuan knew what he intended, so she tightened her lips.
However, he had many ways to make her open her mouth.
As expected, within moments, she had a mouthful of water, nearly choking.
Xia Xiaonuan felt her throat was dry and itchy, suddenly pushing Nangong Yaoling away, continuously coughing.
