Chapter 12: 012: You're actually feeling guilty?

At the very end, Miss Feng changed into a long white dress. Although it still exposed her arms, it was much better than the previous one that showed both her arms and legs.

Moreover, Feng Liyue’s own temperament was better suited for long dresses.

Rong Xiao helped her tie up her hair, which immediately made her look full of youthful vitality.

Soon, it was time for lunch.

Although Feng Liyue hadn't eaten long ago, the dishes made by their family's chef were so delicious that she loved them too much. Without any hesitation, she sat in her usual seat, and Han Mohen sat beside her as always.

Throughout the meal, Feng Liyue showered the food with praise, eating even more than Han Mohen.

The result was that she overate!

"I'm going to the company. You stay at home and let Rong Xiao show you around to get familiar with the environment."

Feng Liyue leaned back in her chair to digest, nodding blankly: "Oh. What is a company?"

Han Mohen explained patiently: "A place where you exchange labor for money."

"Oh?" Feng Liyue was surprised and blurted out: "With a face like yours, you still need to use labor to earn money? My mother said that people who look as good as you don't need to do anything to avoid starving. Like my father, he doesn't have to do anything at all; he takes me and my mother out to play every day and we still have food and drink. Following Father means having a good life. You are truly pitiful; your good looks are wasted."

Han Mohen: "..."

Who is her mother, teaching a child like this?

"People here, regardless of their appearance, must earn their own money, especially men!"

He is a man, and he would never be idle. He has the ability to earn money, and a lot of it at that.

Feng Liyue did not know that the great father in her heart had just been looked down upon.

"Is that so?" Feng Liyue said, half-understanding, "Then I don't have any money. Do I also have to exchange labor for money? You’ve already been kind enough to let me stay here; I feel a bit bad about eating and drinking for free."

Han Mohen glanced at her sideways, "You are also capable of feeling bad?"

Miss Feng narrowed her eyes and glared at him, "What, do, you, mean!"

Han Mohen wisely stopped talking and called Rong Xiao over, instructing: "After I leave, take her to tour the castle and get familiar with the environment. Also, teach her how to use the things she needs in daily life. As for her going out, forget about today; I will take her out another day."

Rong Xiao noted everything down, "Your Highness, rest assured, I will take good care of Miss Feng."

"Hmm," Han Mohen stood up and said to Feng Liyue, "Stay at home and behave yourself. I'll be back later."

This wasn't the first or second time Rong Xiao had been surprised today. His Highness actually told someone his schedule, and he did it voluntarily!

His Highness was changing too fast; she was having a hard time processing it.

"Okay, I'll wait for you."

To Feng Liyue, these were just three words said unintentionally, without any special meaning. But they made Han Mohen pause his steps. No one had ever told him that they would be waiting at home for his return!

He gave a soft acknowledgment and left the dining room.

Rong Xiao was still struggling with all of His Highness's abnormal behaviors today, even forgetting to respectfully see off their noble Highness.

Feng Liyue watched Han Mohen’s back disappear. For some reason, for a split second, she felt as if she saw something called loneliness on him.

Feng Liyue shook her head. That was an illusion! It must be an illusion caused by being too full!

After spending the morning together, didn't she already know what kind of person he was? Typically annoying and foul-mouthed!

Well, he was still a good person. At least he was willing to take her in when she was homeless and provided her with such delicious food. Life couldn't be better!
