Chapter 1420: Chapter 1242: Xiao’ai, Dabao, Xiaobei

But Lanlan naturally dared not ask too much. Whatever Dabao asked her to do, she just did it.

Long Aixi could tell immediately that Dabao was indeed mad at him. Without understanding the situation, he wouldn’t let Dabao avoid him like this, so he also ordered Lanlan, "No need for all that trouble, Miss Dabao will eat right here."

Lanlan then dared not go to prepare the meal.

Dabao thought the whole afternoon but couldn’t understand why she was jealous of Zhou Xianzhi. She only knew that she really couldn’t keep mingling with Long Aixi endlessly. Otherwise, what would happen if she got used to his kindness to her and didn’t let him be kind to other ladies?

Seeing Lanlan hesitating here, Dabao then said to Lanlan, "Lanlan, I asked you to start preparing the meal, why are you still standing there? I might not understand the rules of the Dragon Tooth gang, but now you are mine, and you should listen to me, right?"

Lanlan then picked up the food box and started carefully filling it with food.

Long Aixi, however, looked at Lanlan again, "I already said, Miss Dabao will have her meal here, she’s not going anywhere!"

Lanlan now couldn’t prepare the meal or refuse to; she could only look at Dabao.

Dabao didn’t know why she suddenly felt angry. She looked at Long Aixi and snapped, "Why are you making things difficult for Lanlan? It’s true that Lanlan is a servant, but servants have dignity too, you know?"

After speaking, she couldn’t bring herself to sit at the dining table anymore. Instead, she stood up angrily and turned to leave.

But Long Aixi moved faster than Dabao. Just as she was about to reach the door, he suddenly blocked her, closed the door, and thus blocked her way.

Dabao paused for a moment, then looked at him angrily, "Why are you stopping me?"

Long Aixi just looked straight at her, "You know why."

"That’s really funny, how should I know why you’re stopping me?" Dabao said. But looking into Long Aixi’s gaze, she found she couldn’t speak forcefully anymore.

"Then tell me, why have you been ignoring me since we left the garden today? What did I do to make you mad?" Long Aixi still blocked her and asked.

Dabao’s heart tightened at that moment.

Yes, what had he done wrong? He was just being nice to her, while also being nice to other girls. But he had never said he would only be nice to her in the future.

It was less that she was mad at him, and more that she was angry at herself.

She blamed herself for being too petty.

Seeing that Dabao wasn’t speaking, Long Aixi pressed further, "Is it... do you think I sometimes get too close to you?"

He was referring to the lantern-hanging incident, where he had intentionally tested her reaction. If she didn’t shrink away, it would mean she had feelings for him. And she didn’t have an extreme reaction at the time.

When he asked, Dabao subconsciously answered, "Yes, your behavior is too frivolous, I don’t like it at all. Do you really think you’re gold and silver, thinking all the girls in the world should like you? Don’t be like that with me anymore, if you act that way again, I will dislike you. Do it with other ladies! Also, don’t be too good to me, I am two years older than you, I am your sister."

Dabao just wanted to set clear boundaries, merely satisfying a moment’s urge to speak her mind. After she finished speaking, she saw a hurt look in Long Aixi’s eyes.

Her heart softened a bit.

Did she speak too harshly?
