Chapter 59a: Exceptional Delicacy
As far as the condition she was going to put forward, firstly, Luo Qing Luan didn"t want him to be suspicious of what she told him. Secondly, if he truly agreed, she would gain an additional powerful helping hand.
Her request had to do with her mother"s cause of death. Luo Qing Luan"s expression also became solemn. "I would like you to help me investigate clearly the reason for my mother"s death back then."
As far as she was concerned, this matter might be problematic. After all, it"s already been over ten years. Things had already changed for quite some time. But based on Nalan Ye"s ident.i.ty and connections, it"d be much simpler to carry out the investigation.
Of course, the prerequisite was that he agreed. Nalan Ye smiled faintly. It was unknown what he was thinking. It"s just that the tone of his voice contained a trace of indifference. "Your mother already died. Why should I help you? It"s of no benefit to me."
"What benefit do you want?" She just knew that Nalan Ye wouldn"t agree so easily. Luo Qing Luan didn"t find this to be surprising at all.
Looking at that exquisite and refined face, Nalan Ye replied, "I don"t think that you can bring forth anything that will move me. Money? I don"t lack any. Power? Heh heh, I"ve already put down the highest official positions. Besides, these are also not something that a little girl like you can give me. As for your body……"
Nalan Ye"s gaze started to wander on Luo Qing Luan"s body with a deliberately examining expression as he looked her up and down, making her extremely uncomfortable. Seeing that Luo Qing Luan almost could no longer keep herself from exploding, he then laughed lightly and mocked, "Just your thin as a match body which hasn"t even developed and can"t even compare with Heavenly Dream Tower"s interesting women……"
"Nalan Ye, you"re indeed shameless!" Luo Qing Luan was so angered by his words that her whole face turned red.
Therefore, you can"t provide me with any benefit, then no need to talk."
Without caring that he"d been yelled at in the least, Nalan Ye laughed instead while withdrawing his gaze, not looking at her any longer. He even brushed his sleeves while shaking his head, as if Luo Qing Luan was truly as he stated, without a single good point, disappointing to the extreme.
She originally didn"t have to have Nalan Ye"s help anyway and merely wanted him to lower his guard, but Luo Qing Luan was now furious to no small degree. With a move of her hand, silver needles were already prepared. She wanted to stab them into Nalan Ye. Best if he could be paralyzed.
This repulsive man. She must have him know what awesomeness was!
"Forget it if you don"t agree, Nalan Ye, you think I have to beg you?"
As she spoke, she walked forward. Luo Qing Luan pretended to be both annoyed and helpless, panting with rage as she continued, "However, you"ve abducted me to this place, shouldn"t you send me back? We"ve already left the city. By having me return on my own at this time of night, you want to ruin my reputation, right?"
The distance between them wasn"t much to begin with. With merely a few steps, she already neared Nalan Ye. The silver needles hidden between her fingers had already been prepared neatly. She could make a move at any time, but right at this moment, Nalan Ye turned around.
His pitch-black eyes were hidden in depth, as if the top of his head touched the firmament. She could clearly see the corners of his mouth curve up, yet it gave her a cold feeling. His handsomely clear complexion was perfect without a blemish to be found. Under the moonlight, those thin layer by layer of moonbeams contrasted his face, as if his entire body was plated by a layer of indistinct halo. Like a pure and holy lake at the summit of a snowy mountain, free of dirt and detached from the three worlds.
Somewhat suddenly, looking at such an unusual Nalan Ye before her, such a handsome face, the blaze in Luo Qing Luan"s heart actually dissipated by no small amount.
"I have never bullied little girls. If you truly want me to help you, then just do a little something to please me." Nalan Ye stated neither slow nor swift, his voice deep and beautiful, similar to a breeze blowing gently between a bamboo grove, making a person calm and stress free.
Please him?
Luo Qing Luan wrinkled her nose. Only demons might know how to please him!
This man, all it took was one look to know that he was the kind who was two-faced. One moment gloomy and cold, while smiling at another. Basically, no one knew what in the world he might be thinking. Rather than wasting time thinking about what would please him, why not just use this time to conduct her own investigation.
Luo Qing Luan didn"t even have a chance to open her mouth and decline when Nalan Ye spoke. "I also don"t want to make things difficult for you. I heard that you"re extremely particular when it comes to food. Then how about you make a culinary delicacy right now to move me? How about it?"
After hearing Nalan Ye say that, Luo Qing Luan glared at him ferociously.
They were in the middle of a desolate countryside. There"s nothing here. Was it possible that he didn"t know the saying "even the best housewife can not cook without ingredients", this common saying? No matter how competent she was, she still couldn"t concoct chicken, fish, meat, or what not, right? As for seasonings, there wasn"t even any salt, not to mention any other oil, vinegar, and so forth. How about the pots? Knives?
He still called that not making things difficult? She simply wanted to beat him to death!
"Looks like the second Miss Luo doesn"t live up to your fame. I heard the crown prince mention your skills before and I even believed him that you"re multi-talented?" Nalan Ye shook his head with an expression like he already expected this and continued in a lightly mocking manner. "Forget it, I just won"t for you……"
"Nalan Ye, if I made something, will you dare to eat it?" All of a sudden, Luo Qing Luan said faintly.
During this split second, she abruptly thought of something. This was something she and her master discovered previously when they went out to look for herbal medicines. That night, they were sleeping outdoors on a certain mountain. At that time, master also found it by accident, was prompted by a sudden impulse, and made it for her to eat. Now that she thought of it, she figured she might as well have Nalan Ye try this taste.
It"s just that, she didn"t know if Nalan Ye would have the guts and sense of adventure for fine exotic foods.
Even though he didn"t know what Luo Qing Luan was cooking up in her mind, Nalan Ye smiled lightly. "As long as you make something and also dare to eat it, what would I have to fear?"
"Fine. Then wait here." A tinge of craftiness flashed through her eyes, Luo Qing Luan turned and headed towards the forest.
