The guard listened to his words, quickly nodded, turned around, and went off to prepare the evening al.
...
Not long after, Lu Tianfeng directly went to have dinner, while An Shen and An ng exchanged a glance.
"An ng, you go eat first," An Shen said to An ng.
The two of them must have one person watching over Lu Tianfeng. Of course, whenever Lu Tianfeng eats, they also need to follow; otherwise, if they miss the timing, they’ll end up going hungry.
Even if Lu Tianfeng is a malicious person, at least for now, things hadn’t co to an outright fallout, so technically, he’s still their master.
They couldn’t just openly eat their als without a care while Lu Tianfeng was conducting affairs, could they?
"Alright."
An ng didn’t argue, cast a glance at Lu Tianfeng, then left.
Looking at the gaze from the two of them directed at himself, Lu Tianfeng felt particularly irritated, yet he couldn’t do anything about them.
"An Shen, you should go eat as well. I’m just staying here and won’t be running off anywhere," he said good-naturedly to An Shen.
"Young Master Tianfeng, your kindness is appreciated, but Madam’s orders cannot be disobeyed. If we were to leave Young Master Tianfeng and sothing were to happen, Madam would hold and An ng accountable," An Shen replied coolly to Lu Tianfeng.
Lu Tianfeng: "..."
Accountable? Accountable for what? In such a short span of ti, what could possibly happen?
To put it another way, even if sothing could happen, it’s not like he would harm his sister-in-law’s pregnancy in this brief period, right?
If it’s his own handiwork at stake, why would he let anything happen to her now?
"Nothing’s really going on with here. If you’re still worried, I can bring in more guards from the manor to watch over . Would that be sufficient?" he said helplessly.
"No."
An Shen still shook his head.
"Aside from An ng and myself, all the others are unreliable. Unless they can prove themselves capable of defeating the two of us in combat."
Lu Tianfeng: "!!!"
Damn it, An Shen and An ng were the most skilled guards under Lu Tianlan. Capable of defeating them? The hundred or so guards in this manor combined might not even be able to handle An Shen alone, let alone in a one-on-one situation. An ng could probably knock soone down with a single move.
"Fine then, just keep watching," he said, taking a deep breath and addressing An Shen.
What else could he do? He could only try to figure sothing out when he needed to relieve himself.
Even though he had the Soul Summoning Crystal to keep watch over him, he would surely find a way to avoid the sight of these two eventually.
"Apologies for the inconvenience, Young Master Tianfeng, but this is rely part of my duty," An Shen said calmly, apologizing as he looked at him.
But anyone could tell that there wasn’t a shred of real apology in An Shen’s tone.
If Lu Tianfeng hadn’t been so good at enduring, he would probably have been angered into illness by this kind of attitude from An Shen long ago. He took a deep breath and endured again.
Shortly afterward, An ng, who was supposed to be having her al, returned. She even brought back two portions of dry rations and handed one to An Shen.
"I think eating dry rations is simpler. An Shen, from now on, let’s both stick to dry rations. Here you go," she said.
"Alright."
An Shen had no objections. He reached out for the dry rations and started eating.
Lu Tianfeng: "..."
These two were definitely trying to drive him to madness, weren’t they?
He had been feigning illness initially, but if he kept being monitored by these two, he might not even need to fake illness—he’d be genuinely sick to the core!
