Huangfu Jue suppressed the urge to vomit and lifted the corners of his lips to reveal a slight smile.
The already handsome man, who rarely smiled, made it seem like spring had returned to the earth in an instant when he did. Qian Xueying couldn't help but stare in a daze, her heart pounding rapidly.
Before, she had no real feelings for Huangfu Jue and only saw him as a stepping stone to her success, but now, she couldn't help but be moved by the man before her.
Huangfu Jue withdrew his hand, suppressing the desire to tear apart her fake face, "Would you like some water?"
"That... alright!" She lowered her eyes, her face blushing shyly, "Thank you, Duke."
Huangfu Jue looked away and quickly got up, leaving her bedside. If he hadn't arranged for Will to have another purpose, he would've preferred to look at a filthy rat rather than her deceitful face.
He slowly picked up a cup, slowly poured her water... he was doing his best to drag out the time.
