Chapter 116
116 Young Master VI
Yang Ning raised her brows when Yang Jian threatened her using Yang Luoyang’s name. She scoffed in disbelief at how this little kid was trying to intimidate her with his glistening, tearful eyes.
His expressions were not matching with his threatening words and were telling a different story which made this situation funnier.
If he had said this thing in the past, she would have thought about this threat twice. But things are slightly different at the moment.
She is getting married in a week and will leave this household soon enough. What can Yang Luoyang do to her now? More than that, she has Yu Ling by her side who will ensure her safety in this household until the royal wedding.
“If you want to complain, then go ahead.” Yang Ning gestured for the little boy to go and do whatever he want. “Do you think that I will get scared if you try to threaten me like this?” She asked coldly while looking at him intimidatingly.
Yang Jian was surprised as he wasn’t expecting her to confront him in such a fearless and bold way. Does she not fear their Father anymore? How come her personality changed completely in such a short time?
As if she is a different person with the same face. How can she tell him to go ahead and complain about her rude behavior to Father?
“Also, it was your Father who permitted me to use this room while you were away. Are you sure you want to complain to him about something he decided on himself?”
Yang Jian was speechless at Yang Ning’s words and didn’t know what to do anymore. How is it possible that Father allowed her to stay in his chamber?
.....
It was his Chamber after all!
While he was standing there speechless and thinking about what to say next to save his remaining dignity, Xing Bao entered the chamber and was panting heavily.
“Young Master, you’re here. Why do you run so fast? I couldn’t even catch up to you in time. ” She said while panting heavily.
She looked up at Yang Ning with a suggestive smirk on her face and asked Yang Jian, ” Young Master, what do you want me to do then?”
“Should I ask the servants to move your luggage to this room?” She asked meaningfully.
Although she came late, she could feel the heavy atmosphere when she entered the room. There was an eerie silence in the room and she could feel that something must have happened before she came.
It was obvious that Yang Jian must have scolded and humiliated Yang Ning in front of her maid, Xiaowei. There is no way Yang Ning could fight with Young Master in terms of power and the upper hand in the household.
If she has Yu Ling who deals with everyone in the household, she has Young Master’s support who doesn’t fear anyone in the household.
Yang Ning looked at Xing Bao in surprise and pursed her lips from bursting into a chuckle to see so much confidence on her face. How can she be so sure about it?
No doubt she works for Chang Ah. Their minds work in the same way.
” Are you moving into this room? Should I ask the servants to prepare another bed for you next to mine? This room is quite spacious anyway.” Yang Ning said while looking at Yang Jian meaningfully.
The message hidden in her words was clear. She has no intention to leave this room.
If he wants to move in, the least she can do is arrange another bed for him next to hers. Take it or leave it!
Yang Jian’s eyes widened in shock upon hearing her words. How can she say something ridiculous to him?
He is a man! How can he sleep in the same room with a woman?
“You...have you lost your mind? How can a man and woman live in the same room?” He asked while looking at her in horror.
Yang Ning blinked at him innocently and answered his question, ” Aye! Who said that you are a man? You’re just a kid. A little boy.”
“Moreover, I am your older sister. We are siblings. Of course, we can share a room. Why do you have to react like this and make it sound so scandalous?” She chuckled, not understanding why he was reacting so seriously.
Don’t people in this world sleep in the same room with their siblings? Moreover, they will be sleeping on different beds.
What kind of reaction was that? She wondered. He is a kid after all. What is so wrong with it?
She didn’t even mean it. Yet they were acting as if she said something strange.
“Milady! Please don’t say anything now.” Xiaowei exclaimed in fright and held onto Yang Ning’s sleeves to stop her from speaking anymore.
She was worried that if she continued to speak like that, she would create more problems for her. How can she suggest Young Master sleep in the same room as her?
Yang Jian’s face turned crimson in embarrassment at Yang Ning’s words. How can she suggest that he sleep in the same room as her?
It’s disgraceful.
” I am not a kid but a Man! Father says that I am the ‘Man’ of the Household and should act like one. Stop saying that I am not a man but a little kid.” He frowned and shouted at her while glaring at her with his cheeks flared up.
“If you like this room that much, you keep it. Because I will never share a room with you, never!” He thumped his foot on the floor to show his rage and turned around after announcing his final verdict.
Xing Bao was confused by the way Yang Jian reacted and things were not going as she had expected. What just happened? Did he ask her to use the room by herself? Why?
“Young Master, where are you going? Didn’t you come here to claim your chamber back? How can you leave just-” She reacted hurriedly and tried to follow his small yet swift steps.
However, Yang Jian didn’t listen to her words and continued to walk. He was too embarrassed to turn around and look at Yang Ning.
No one has ever scolded him like that or called him a kid. He is a man, a man who will protect the household. How can she look down on him by calling him a kid?
It’s embarrassing!

After Yang Jian left the chamber, Yang Ning couldn’t help but burst into laughter. She couldn’t believe what just happened.
It was her first time arguing with a 10-year-old kid over a room. It is petty but fun.
“How can he be so cute? Haha! Did you see his chubby cheeks when he was angry?” Yang Ning laughed and asked Xiaowei who was still frightened and shocked by what just happened.
” I wanted to pull his chubby-dumpling cheeks. How can he be so cute?”
Xiaowei let out a deep breath and said in a low voice, ” Milady, you scare me sometimes. How can you be so fearless?”
” I wonder too.” Yang Ning chuckled and shrugged her shoulders at her question. Sometimes she also wonders how she can be so fearless.
She is living in a different world and still acts freely like her past self. Sometimes she fears that she will be killed because of her tongue which doesn’t think before speaking anything.
“Ah! Maybe it will be for the better. At least I could go back soon.” She sighed and pulled the chair for herself to sit on it and continued eating her fruits.
She tried to kill herself but she is too cowardly to properly dare to kill herself. When she was on the verge of dying, Zheng Liang saved her.
Sometimes, she wonders if she had died that day from drowning, would she have returned to her world, or would have died as Yang Ning?
