Ruan Tang grasped Austinās hand against the risk of violence at any moment. While calm on the surface, at the same time, mentally he had been watching out for how he would escape if Austin flared up.
In fact, he didnāt really need to obey the Empressās words and rush to be a fertility tool for Austin.
Itās just that the Empress has ordered him, and the disparity of status made him have to follow.
Even if it is pretend, he has to pretend to be obedient and submissive, to do as the Empress instructs, to get close to this Bluebeard Dukeā¦.. so that he can live longer and save himself and also his family.
As for whether he can achieve the effect the Empress wants after his effortsā¦ā¦
Ruan Tang can not guarantee, after all, the Duke of Austin was a crazy person without logic.
Ruan Tang grabbed his hand, with the attitude of a heroic warrior with a resolute mind and going generously to die. He showed a flattering expression on his face, trying to show the essence of seduction, āā¦Has My Lord eaten this morning? I havenāt had breakfast yet. Why donāt weā¦ ā
He didnāt expect Austin to agree to him. He only hoped he would shake him off and push his wheelchair away.
This way, he could have an explanation for the Empress and continue to live.
However, Austin looked at him for a long time, but seemed to have misunderstood something, he deeply frowned and said, āWhy? Do you need to accompany you for your morning meal?ā
Ruan Tang: āā¦ā
Ruan Tang had no idea how he managed to get from his words that he needed company to eat. He was utterly speechless.
Sure enough, a madmanās brain circuit was not something ordinary people could understandā¦
Ruan Tang was tempted to call it quits and ignore this madman, but thinking back to the quota issued by the Empress, no matter what the results were, he had to let people see his efforts.
He then immediately looked at Austin with a forced affectionate smile, āYes, I have needed someone to accompany me to eat since I was young. Whenever I eat alone, I have a bad appetite. My Lord, Iā¦ā
A look of disgust and impatience immediately appeared in Austinās eyes that Ruan Tang had expected. His eyebrows furrowed harder, like he was fed up.
Ruan Tang, in a scale of good measure, planned to take advantage of the victory to make Austin sick of him so he would brush him off and not want to see him for the next few days.
He would also have a reason to give an explanation to the Empress.
Itās not that I donāt try, but your son really dislikes me.
āReally unreasonableā¦ā Austin frowned deeply and looked at Ruan Tang impatiently, as if he was looking at some spoiled and difficult-to-care-for pet, āIāve heard that Omegas were delicate and troublesome, difficult to raiseā¦I originally thought you werenāt like this. I didnāt expect that youād reveal your true colors in just a few daysā¦ā
Ruan Tang didnāt know where he got this logic from, and was speechless, āā¦ā
He could only stare at Austin anxiously, at his impatient appearance. Just waiting for him to be unable to endure, turn on his heel, and end this matter.
āSince you want me to accompany you to eat, Iāll do so reluctantly
Ruan Tang was stunned directly on the spot: āā¦ā
I just feel like I canāt understand this crazy personās brain circuit more and more.
But Austin still didnāt think it was enough. He pushed his wheelchair impatiently and added, āIām doing it for the sake of my skin and fragranceā¦ā
Ruan Tang: āā¦ā
Ruan Tang was afraid that Seth, the rash young man, would bump into the temperamental duke, so he quietly sent a message to Seth through his personal terminal, informing him that he did not need to come to serve this morning, only then did he follow his nominal husband out of the door of his room.
Ruan Tangās breakfast these past few days had been brought to his room by Seth, and this was the first time he would have a meal in the dining room of Duke Austinās residence.
Regardless of the actual situation, as the Emperorās favorite son on the surface, the configuration of Duke Austinās residence, including the dining room, were extravagant.
The lights were turned on early in the dining room of the Dukeās mansion of Eternal Night and the whole hall was lit up.
The long dining table was filled with all kinds of breakfast cooked by various chefs, and the servants who were physically or crippled stood neatly on the side, responsible for a series of tasks such as delivering and serving dishes.
The only two people sitting at the head table were Ruan Tang and Duke Austin.
The servants of Duke Austinās residence were very well-trained; Although there were many people in the dining room, it was unusually quiet. If one didnāt listen carefully, apart from the two masters. Ruan Tang and Austin, everyone elseās breathing was almost inaudible.
Ruan Tang looked around at the silent dining room, and then at the motionless Duke Austin. He really didnāt know whether he should eat or not.
He hadnāt eaten with Austen and didnāt know if the others could move their chopsticks before he did.
If I moved my chopsticks, would it make him angry?
āArenāt you going to eat breakfast? Why arenāt you eating yet?ā Duke Austin saw him not move, but opened his mouth impatiently and asked, āDonāt you usually have breakfast on time?ā

With the permission of the mansionās owner, Ruan Tang immediately moved his chopsticks, āThen, Iāll eat first.ā
His daily routine and meal times are very punctual. Today, he was a little late, and his stomach was already rumblingā¦
Although the servants in the Dukeās residence were all disabled, they were all well-trained and Ruan Tang didnāt need to inform them; As long as Ruan Tangās eyes fell on whichever dish he wanted to eat, someone would immediately deliver the food to Ruan Tangās bowl.
Although both of them were aristocrats, the cooking skills of the chefs in the Dukeās residence were far superior to those of the chefs of an unpopular son in the Marshalās residenceā¦.
It also tastes a lot better.
Ruan Tang was quite the foodie; facing such delicacies, although sitting at the same table as the frightening Duke Bluebeard, he still ate with great relish.
As he ate, he felt thirsty and wanted something to drink.
The servants of Duke Austinās residence immediately and considerately brought him a cup of black tea.
āHe doesnāt drink black tea.ā Unexpectedly, before the black tea was delivered to Ruan Tang, Austin looked in Ruan Tangās direction and suddenly said, āGive him coffee.ā
The servant obediently removed the black tea at once and replaced it with a cup of coffee for Ruan Tang.
Ruan Tang instantly looked at Austin in surprise.
Austin, however, was already looking away from him.
The housekeeper was also surprised. He has never seen the Duke of Austin eat with people in private, pay so much attention to what others eat or donāt eat, and he even spoke to the servant.
It looked like the Duke was paying far more attention to the Duchess than they could have imagined.
āIs it delicious?ā Austin looked at Ruan Tongās face for a long time as he kept stuffing things into his mouth, he suddenly asked a question that he had been wondering about for days.
He has a slight anorexia. No matter what delicious food he eats, it is tastelessā¦ seeing Ruan Tang eat so well everyday
He was actually a little curiousāā
Was it really that good?
āItās very delicious.ā Ruan Tang didnāt expect him to ask him. He took a deep breath and chose to answer truthfully, āThe craftsmanship of your cooks are all very exquisite.ā
Austin didnāt speak, as if he was just observing something, watching Ruan Tangās mouth move continuously.
Ruan Tangās face was calm, but when he stared at him with such eyes, he couldnāt help worrying. He didnāt know what the lunatic was thinking about.
Did he want to pull out his tongue this time and collect it too?
He had even made a mental response to what he should say to escape the disaster and prevent him from being his interest in his tongue.
But Austin looked at him for a long time, but he didnāt say or do anything. He just lazily glanced at the servant standing on the side.
Immediately someone put the same food that Ruan Tang had eaten into Austinās plate.
Austin tasted it with interest and looked at Ruan Tang again:Ā Well, it does seem to taste good indeed.
