Chapter 35: 035 Fifth Lord Intentionally Puts on Airs? Instead Gets Teased Chapter 35: 035 Fifth Lord Intentionally Puts on Airs? Instead Gets Teased Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation That night, many people in Pingjiang tossed and turned, unable to sleep. Tang Wan thought she had “hurt” Jiang Jinsang and didn’t know how to make amends. She too tossed and turned in bed, only falling asleep late at night, while the instigator, on the other hand, slept well.

The next morning, when Tang Wan got up, Jiang Jinsang was standing in the courtyard idly tending to the flowers and plants. He merely nodded casually when he saw her come out.

Compared to the previous days, he was indeed a bit indifferent.

Tang Wan took a deep breath, thinking, Oh no, could he truly be angry?

“Good morning, Fifth Lord,” she said with a smile as she walked up to him. He replied with a nonchalant sound, which gave her a headache. “These flowers… where are their leaves?”

“The weather turned cold in autumn, so they all fell off.”

The Jiang Family: “…”

Clearly, it was you who plucked them bald last night.

Noticing his lack of interest and seeming unwillingness to engage with her, Tang Wan decided to head to the main hall to prepare breakfast.

The old man went out early in the morning with his birdcage for a stroll and smiled when he returned to see the dining table, “What’s the occasion today that we’re having such a feast?”

“Oh, just a whim to make a few more dishes,” Tang Wan replied sheepishly. She certainly couldn’t admit it was to please Jiang Jinsang.

After breakfast, the two of them returned to the courtyard together, and Tang Wan casually suggested, “Fifth Lord, would you like to go read in the study later? The sunlight is better there.”

“I won’t disturb you?” he asked, his voice low and gentle, yet his lips remained coolly indifferent.

“It’s no problem, please do.”

…

When Jiang Jinsang arrived at the study, Tang Wan had already prepared tea and pastries, her attempts to please him were obvious.

However, as soon as he sat down in the chair, he began reading without any intention of speaking, leaving Tang Wan to grouse and busy herself with her own tasks.

Except for the occasional chirping of the Hua Mei in the main hall, the study was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

“What are you doing?” Suddenly a voice sounded beside her, startling Tang Wan. Her hand trembled, and when she turned her head, she found that Jiang Jinsang was already standing by her side, his chin almost resting on her shoulder and neck.

She could feel his gentle breathing so close.
