Dongfang smiled slightly and nodded. “Nice to meet you.”
Ye Liu looked at Dongfang’s squinted eyes. Although he had a smile on his face, it didn’t reach the bottom of his eyes.
He relied on his senses as a man and felt that Mr. Dongfang was slightly interested in their Little Duo.
“I’m curious as to how Mrs. Ye is able to think up and draw her drawings.” Dongfang smiled slightly.
He took a sip of tea and set the teacup down. One could tell he wasn’t the typical son of a rich family, or a typical boss, from his elegant and noble posture.
It really made him curious how even animals could be portrayed in such a cute and lovable way. All the young ladies from government officials’ families, and even the princess in the capital, were crazy about them!
Liu Duo started grinning when she heard him. “This is a secret!”
What was she supposed to say?
Because I am from the future, and that’s why I know how to draw such unique drawings?
Wouldn’t this be talking nonsense? Who would believe her? It would be better not to say it.
When Dongfang heard her, he laughed and didn’t ask about it anymore. If she said it was a secret, it would naturally mean she didn’t want to talk about it.
Liu Duo maintained her composure, but she muttered in her heart, Oh my, he looks extraordinary, like a graceful prince. He is so graceful and enchanting when he smiles.
Although Dongfang Ming was also very handsome, living with the four Ye brothers had already made Liu Duo used to it. That was why he couldn’t make Liu Duo become smitten with him!
As people say, the more you are exposed to something, the more normal it becomes.
“Boss Ye, I heard you were in the business of selling bamboo shoots?” Dongfang Ming suddenly said to Ye Liu.
However, Ye Liu just smiled and replied, “Mr. Dongfang, don’t call me boss. I cannot bear the title. Our wife is the real boss. I am just a worker who doesn’t get paid and has to work forever.”
Dongfang Ming and Qin Fang were both stunned when they heard him.
When Liu Duo heard him, she immediately used her hand to pinch him underneath the table. She cast a glance at him, as though to say, You better be more serious!
It were as though Ye Liu didn’t feel any pain. Ye Liu used his hand underneath the table to hold the small hand that committed the violent act. He gently caressed it back and forth and then looked back at her, as though to say, I’m telling the truth.
Liu Duo felt so embarrassed she immediately pulled her hand back and put it on the table. This dirty bastard was really so shameless!
Dongfang Ming reacted after a few seconds passed. He smiled and took another sip of tea. “Mr. Ye is quite humorous.”
He put the teacup down and asked again, “Now that the bamboo season is over, you are in the business of selling tomato sauce, right?”
Qin Fang had told him all of these things. He was just curious how Liu Duo was able to figure out how to make these things.
Tomato sauce was something that was previously unheard of.
“Yeah, it’s only been a while since we started selling tomato sauce. We are at the beginning stage.” Ye Liu kept looking at Liu Duo with a smile at the bottom of his eyes.
They continued chatting this way until noon, and Qin Fang went to take care of lunch.
The room was left with only Liu Duo, Ye Liu, and Dongfang.
Liu Duo looked at the ice cube wall and asked, “Mr. Dongfang, did you transport these ice cubes from the capital?”
“Of course.” Dongfang Ming nodded.
Hearing him say this, Liu Duo muttered in her heart, Oh my, it didn’t melt even though it was transported from so far away? How miraculous.
“Are these ice cubes made from clean water?” Liu Duo asked again.
“Of course. They can be drank when they turn into water.” Dongfang Ming smiled. What kind of water would be used if not clean water?
Upon hearing him, Liu Duo immediately snapped her fingers. “Great, I can finally eat frozen fruit salad!”
She didn’t leave time for Dongfang Ming and Ye Liu to react. She stood up while pulling Ye Liu along and smiled, “Mr. Dongfang, we’ll be leaving for a while but we will return really quickly.”
After she finished speaking, she led Ye Liu out of the room.
