No one dares to speak to Beichen Rui in this tone; in the servants' eyes, Beichen Rui is notoriously temperamental.
Whenever possible, they wish to avoid him entirely; nobody wants to walk into the line of fire.
Of course, Jingxi is an exception. The little guy is not only unafraid of Beichen Rui but also dares to oppose him.
Surprisingly, although Beichen Rui looks fierce outwardly, he never lays a hand on the child.
He might be stern with him, glare at him, but he doesn't resort to physical punishment.
Just like now, even though Beichen Rui is clearly displeased, he sits sulking on the side.
Housekeeper Lin watches all of this, sincerely happy for this father and son pair.
Even though they disdain each other, it's obvious that the Young Master spoils Jingxi, and the little guy also relies a bit on Beichen Rui.
They just haven't realized it yet.
