He had always been polite, even when he was handing out a rejection . “I’m not interested . ”
With that, he wiped the edges of his lips and stood up . “Besides, thank you for the meal . I had enough and will be heading up now . ”
Bo Jiu glanced down . He had only eaten one piece of broccoli and emptied his wine glass . How could he be full after just one bite?
The old Butler chuckled . “Let’s not force Young Master Qin, please . ”

The old butler wouldn’t butt into their affairs but he had to remind her . “Young Lord, a girl shouldn’t be so aggressive . ”
“Alright . ” Bo Jiu took a moment before replying . “But the Almighty has to eat, I’ll come down once he is done with this plate . ”
