Warlord: Starting with Subduing Little A Qiao

Feng Chengcheng didn't say the second half of the sentence.

She had intended to say that she would repay Ye Bai, but when she thought about the current situation, she swallowed her words.

After all, she had just run away from home and was temporarily penniless and had nothing.

How can I possibly claim I can repay the other person?!

But at this moment, her eyes clearly conveyed this meaning.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Aqiao felt a little uncomfortable.

Her gaze fell upon Ye Bai, who was sitting in the main seat.

He remained impeccably composed, his expression calm and serene, clearly indicating that he was still clueless about matters of the heart.

But looking into Feng Chengcheng's eyes, it was clear that she had already fallen in love and was just one step away from saying she would give herself to him!

It just goes to show that you're throwing your eyelashes at a blind man.

And isn't this scene a reflection of her own feelings?

To think that Ye Bai, despite having a beauty like her by his side, remained unmoved...

Little Aqiao was already feeling incredibly disappointed in him!

Thinking back, Lu Ruping applied to stay temporarily at the Paramount Mansion a while ago, and now Feng Chengcheng has come again...

So you think the Paramount Mansion is a hotel?

Unbeknownst to her, Xiao Aqiao's inner turmoil had piled up like a mountain, but she never showed it on her face.

However, sensing the sadness on Feng Chengcheng's face, Xiao Aqiao suppressed her own thoughts and slowly responded.

"Then Miss Feng, please feel at ease staying here with us."

As she said this, Xiao Aqiao straightened her back and adopted the demeanor of a matriarch.

After all, there were very few women at the Paramount Mansion.

Aside from her servants and subordinates, she was the only one left.

The task of entertaining female guests naturally fell to her.

As soon as Xiao Aqiao finished speaking, Feng Chengcheng vaguely sensed Xiao Aqiao's intention.

However, at this moment, she was filled with immense gratitude for Ye Bai's agreement to let her stay.

Turning to look at Xiao Aqiao, she also bent down slightly.

"I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you all from now on."

And that was the end of it.

The next day.

When Xiao Aqiao got up early to arrange the affairs of the mansion, she saw that Feng Chengcheng had also gotten up early.

Xiao Aqiao had just finished giving instructions to the maids and servants in the mansion when she saw Feng Chengcheng walking gracefully towards her.

"Sister Qiao, what do you usually do?"

A gentle, soft sound, like a wind chime, rang out.

This seemingly ordinary statement made Xiao Aqiao ponder it deeply.

What do you usually like to do?

It may seem like an ordinary question, but it can clearly reveal a person's environment and even their taste.

Little Aqiao couldn't help but mutter to herself.

Feng Chengcheng in front of him really dug a hole for herself.

Thinking this, Xiao Aqiao glanced at her recently painted nails and answered casually.

"I, Xiao Aqiao, do all sorts of things on a regular basis. I just do whatever Brother Ye needs me to do."

This statement seems to say everything, yet it also seems to say nothing at all.

However, the central theme throughout the entire story is Ye Bai.

It's nothing more than that everything she does and says revolves around Ye Bai.

When these words reached Feng Chengcheng's ears, her smile indeed froze slightly for a moment.

Her original intention was to see what Xiao Aqiao usually did and, by the way, to find out Ye Bai's hobbies.

But to everyone's surprise, Xiao Aqiao's words were perfectly tactful.

Just like a panacea, it clearly couldn't get any information out of her what she wanted to know.

At that moment, Feng Chengcheng's slightly startled expression also caught Xiao Aqiao's eye.

A glint flashed in her eyes, and she opened the feather fan in her hand, fanning herself lightly before changing the subject with a smile.

"What do you usually like to do, Miss Feng?"

"I?"

When Xiao Aqiao asked about her hobbies, Feng Chengcheng answered without hesitation.

"I like reading."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Aqiao looked somewhat puzzled.

She had assumed that a rich girl like Feng Chengcheng must enjoy eating, drinking, and having fun.

Thinking this, she asked the question aloud.

"There are so many amusement parks in Shanghai, doesn't Miss Feng go to play there on weekdays? And there are so many shopping malls, doesn't Miss Feng go shopping when she has free time?"

As soon as she said it, Xiao Aqiao saw Feng Chengcheng shake her head without hesitation.

"These places are too crowded. I'd rather stay home and read."

It seemed that her interests had been touched upon, and Feng Chengcheng smiled and began to elaborate.

"For example, I recently read a book called *Crime and Punishment*, which tells the story of a poor college student who commits murder..."

As Feng Chengcheng told the story of the book, Xiao Aqiao gradually became engrossed in listening.

Watching Feng Chengcheng talk about books with great interest, Xiao Aqiao felt as if she were experiencing the radiance of the woman in front of her from a new perspective.

She is knowledgeable and intelligent, gentle and generous, strong and beautiful.

This is what a true scholarly young lady should look like.

Looking at herself, Xiao Aqiao pursed her lips, a rare occurrence for her.

Just as one was speaking earnestly and the other was lost in thought, a familiar voice suddenly rang out.

"What are you doing?"

Chapter 113 Xiao Aqiao and Feng Chengcheng are evenly matched!

The two looked back and found that Ye Bai had unknowingly walked right up to them.

He was asking them about the topic they were discussing.

Xiao Aqiao looked at Feng Chengcheng beside her and covered her mouth with a smile.

"Miss Feng is telling me about a book she recently read. It's very interesting; it tells the story of a poor college student. The title is..."

Halfway through her speech, she seemed to forget the name. Xiao A's bright eyes darted around, and she immediately turned to Feng Chengcheng beside her.

"Let Miss Feng speak first. Look at my memory, I've completely forgotten the name."

The topic shifted, and upon hearing this, Feng Chengcheng, who was standing to the side, immediately blushed and became slightly shy.

She could talk freely in front of Xiao Aqiao just now, but now, for some reason, when Ye Bai stood in front of her, she seemed a little shy to speak.

Seeing that Xiao Aqiao and Ye Bai's gazes were fixed on her, Feng Chengcheng took a deep breath and began to speak rather quietly.

The book is called Crime and Punishment.

As soon as the book title was mentioned, Ye Bai suddenly nodded and spoke up.

"Was it written by Dostoevsky?"

This is clearly the author of the book "Crime and Punishment"!

In other words, even if Ye Bai hadn't read the book, he must have heard of it!

Upon thinking of this, Feng Chengcheng's eyes lit up instantly, and the smile on her lips became even more pronounced.

873 "Mr. Ye, have you read this book too?"

The next second, Ye Bai nodded slightly.

I know a little about it, but I haven't seen much of it.

At this moment, Ye Bai's behavior was seen as humility by Feng Chengcheng.

A sudden inspiration struck her. She glanced at Ye Bai, then lowered her head somewhat embarrassed.

When she looked up again, she asked with a hint of caution.
