Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 1220: Chapter 1220: Shattered Plates Everywhere Chapter 1220: Chapter 1220: Shattered Plates Everywhere Jian Yufei wore an indifferent expression and did not speak.

The woman glanced at her with disdain and said, “From now on, you can’t eat with us. You’ll have to wait until we’re finished. Also, no making separate meals for yourself. By nine in the morning, you must have breakfast ready for us. Lunch must be ready before one in the afternoon, and dinner by seven in the evening.”

“I understand,” Jian Yufei responded faintly before turning to leave.

The humiliation from Ruan Tianling came so violently that she feared this was just the beginning.

Jian Yufei looked up to the second floor of the main building, unsure which room was his.

What she didn’t know was that the windows on the second floor were one-way mirrors.

Those inside could see the people outside, but those on the outside couldn’t see in.

Ruan Tianling was standing in the study on the second floor, looking at her through the window.

The Butler stood behind him and respectfully spoke, “Young Master, everything has been arranged as per your instructions.”

The man slightly curled his lips and said faintly, “From now on, report everything to me.”

“I understand.”

“You may leave.”

“Yes.” The Butler respectfully departed and closed the door behind.

Ruan Tianling stared at Jian Yufei standing under the eaves of the opposite building, his face somber, his eyes cold and dark, unfathomable in thought.

…

The servants had finished eating and were coming out to work.

There were precisely twenty servants in this place.

Working for Ruan Tianling meant good treatment for the servants, but it also meant a lot of work.

For example, the swimming pool had to be cleaned every day, the garden needed daily pruning and care.

The floors required dusting several times a day, and the furniture had to be kept shining like new…

Every corner here was spotless, even more meticulous than a seven-star hotel.

Jian Yufei was only responsible for the work in the servants’ kitchen, but her tasks were not light.

A meal involved forty plates, twenty bowls, and twenty teacups, not to mention all the other cookware.

Jian Yufei stood in the spacious kitchen, looking at the leftover food on the table, feeling utterly without appetite.

She could go without eating today, but could she do the same in the future?

But these dishes… were all leftovers from others, and she truly couldn’t stomach them…

Rolling up her sleeves, she resignedly began to wash the dishes.

After dumping the leftovers, she stacked the plates high and carried them toward the sink.

Someone had carelessly spilled oil in front of the sink, and when Jian Yufei stepped on it, she suddenly fell backward–

She tried to steady herself, but the plates still fell to the ground, shattering with a crash.

She also fell hard on the floor, her lower back painfully jarred.

It hurt…

Jian Yufei lay on the floor, unable to get up until the sharp pain had passed and she caught her breath.

Looking at the broken plates scattered on the ground, she didn’t know how to react.

Anger, grievance, or just swallowing her pride?

Jian Yufei stood up and eventually, with resignation, swept away the broken pieces and continued with the dishes.

Missing several plates, her work did not become any lighter.

After cleaning the dishes and cookware, she had to mop the floor.

By the time she finished all her tasks, it was already four in the afternoon.

She remembered she had to have dinner ready before seven, and a meal for twenty people wasn’t easy to make.

She had to start preparing immediately.

Washing vegetables, cutting vegetables, stir-frying…

Hours passed before Jian Yufei barely managed to prepare a full meal.

When the time came, the servants came to eat; since everyone was a servant, there was no question of attending to one another.
