Chapter 185: Chapter 186 Vinegar

"Of course, I spent over two hours in the kitchen making this." Qiao Liang smiled triumphantly at Will, "Since the Duke has work, let’s eat in the living room!"

With that, he steadied Gan Yuan’s wheelchair handlebars and pushed her out into the living room.

Unable to stop them, Will quietly glanced at his master, the Duke, and sure enough, saw his brow furrowed and him rising from his chair.

Gan Yuan placed the insulated container on the coffee table, and Qiao Liang immediately unscrewed the lid, took out a small bowl, filled it more than halfway with chicken soup, and brought it over to her.

"It’s just off the stove, might be a bit hot."

"Thank you."

Gan Yuan took it, politely expressing her gratitude.

Holding the bowl in one hand and gently supporting the soup with a spoon in the other, she caught a glimpse of Huangfu Jue walking over, her expression turning to one of amusement as she looked at Qiao Liang.

"Come sit, why are you standing there?"

"Sure!"

Qiao Liang laughed and sat down on the sofa beside her, as Huangfu Jue strode over to Gan Yuan’s side, bending behind her and reaching out to steady the hand that held the bowl.

Before Gan Yuan could react, he lifted the bowl along with her hand, tilted it slightly, and brought the soup to his own mouth.

Like a warrior drinking liquor, he polished off the soup in the bowl in one gulp, and then delivered his verdict.

"Too salty."

Before Qiao Liang could reply, Gan Yuan had already begun speaking with a smile, "It’s alright, I like strong flavors, I prefer to drink something with a rich taste. Qiao Liang, please serve me another bowl."

Qiao Liang took the bowl and filled it up halfway again for her.

"I’ll cool it down for you!"

After cooling down the soup, he brought it back to her.

Huangfu Jue straightened up, and his arm seemed to lift inadvertently, brushing against Qiao Liang’s arm, causing the bowl to tilt and its contents to spill out completely.

Huangfu Jue grasped the handles of Gan Yuan’s wheelchair and pushed her towards the door.

"Will, assist Mr. Lu with his clothes."

"Yes, sir!" Will immediately stepped forward, blocking Qiao Liang who was standing up from the sofa, "Mr. Qiao, please take off your coat, let me clean it for you."

Standing on the couch, watching Huangfu Jue who had already pushed Gan Yuan outside the guest room, Qiao Liang raised the corners of his lips.

"Littleyuan, tell me what you want to eat, and I’ll make it for you."

Gan Yuan was about to turn her head when one of Huangfu Jue’s palms pressed down on it, immobilizing her.

Lifting her hand to pull his palm off her head, she stood up from the wheelchair and stepped onto the carpet in the hallway.

"Huangfu Jue, you are going too far!"

Accustomed to her freedom, she couldn’t stand being controlled this way.

Frowning at her feet on the carpet, he spoke in a gentle voice.

"Come back!"

Ignoring him, she turned and took a step forward.

The two bodyguards immediately came over in the corridor and blocked her path.

"Get out of my way!"

Huangfu Jue growled, and the two bodyguards hurriedly stepped aside, clearing the way.

"Be good, your leg is injured, you can’t walk."

She ignored him and turned forward.

"Gan Yuan!"

Huangfu Jue took steps to follow her, but she quickened her pace into a run.

Watching her limping away, he felt both anger and heartache and stopped in his tracks.

"I won’t chase you, go slower!"

Watching her rush into the elevator from afar, he just scowled in frustration.

Behind him, footsteps approached lightly, Qiao Liang walking up with a smile and stopping beside him.

"If you truly like her, you shouldn’t force her."

"My affairs are none of your business," Huangfu Jue turned his face, his piercing blue eyes landing sharply on Qiao Liang, "If you don’t want the Lu Family’s business empire to crumble in your hands, stay away from her."
