Le Yao Yao dismissed herself right after Leng Jun Yuâs orders. Soon, she returned with the dinner the kitchen had prepared. She was being a good eunuch and serving on the side.
Honestly, she was very hungry.
After all, while she was in the Study, she had used a lot of brain power. So now, she was tired, thirsty, and hungry. Too bad she was a servant!
She can only eat after the two masters were full.
Tonight, the kitchen prepared a lot of different varieties. Perhaps they knew the 7th Prince and the King of Hell were picky eaters.
There was simmer fried pork meatballs, steamed bass, spicy sweet shrimp, and swallowâs nest shark fin soupâŠ
Everything looked and smelled so good! One look was enough to make a person drool.
Oh no! Her stomach was attacking itself!
Endure! Endure!
Donât look! Donât look! Then she wonât be so hungry!
Le Yao Yao was continuously trying to hypnotize herself. She had her head lowered as she stared at the tips of her toes.
Although she could control her eyes, she wasnât able to control her ears.
The sounds of chopsticks coming in contact with the bowls and dishes were very loud and clear. The 7th Prince must be doing it on purpose!
He knew she was hungry, so he was purposely eating louder!
Ahhhhh!
She was so angry!
Damn him! She hopes he chokes on his food!
Deep down, Le Yao Yao was howling. Perhaps the Gods heard her plead and felt sorry for her. Her wish actually came true.
There was a slight cough, and someone tried to suppress it. But, Le Yao Yao noticed it regardless.
She lifted her head and smiled like she was rejoicing in other peopleâs misfortunes.
She was grateful the Gods granted her wish.
Because, the hateful 7th Prince was actually choking!
Seeing this, Le Yao Yaoâs brows relaxed and she couldnât help but giggle.
âEhâŠ*cough cough*âŠ.You, You damn servant. W-what are you laughing about?â
The 7th Princeâs face was red. He was coughing and glaring at Le Yao Yao at the same time.
â7th Prince, servant isnât laughing at you!â
Humph! I am laughing at you! What are you going to do about it, punk!?!
The 7th Prince could only continue to give her death stares.
As for Le Yao Yao, she pretended she didnât see it.
So, the 7th Prince made a cold humph sound and resumed to eating his meal again.
This time, he began to relish his food and made many loud comments.
âOh God! This simmered fried pork meatballs is so delicious! And the sweet and sour spareribs taste sour and sweet. Mmmmm. It goes in smoothly and isnât greasy at all. So soooooo tasty!!â
Although Le Yao Yao tried her best not to look at Nangong Jun Xiâs face, her ears could still hear his vivid and colourful words. Her mind continued to display many different variety of dishes.
In addition, she couldnât stop her nose from inhaling the mouth watering aromaâŠ
Oh God! She really wanted to eat!
*Gu lu*
Her stomach began to respond to Le Yao Yaoâs thoughts. Furthermore, she kept swallowing her saliva. She looked so cute and pitiful.
Seeing this, Nangong Jun Xiâs smile deepened. He felt like he had won this round.
Humph! He wants to fight him? He doesnât stand a chance!
Unexpectedly, suddenly Leng Jun Yu spoke up from across the table. His words caused the two of them to freeze â
âSit down and dine with us.â
Leng Jun Yuâs voice was very light. If one werenât paying attention, they would have thought they were hearing things.
Originally, Le Yao Yao thought she was having hallucinations.
But when she made eye contact with the King of Hell, and saw Nangong Jun Xiâs disbelief expression, she realized she wasnât hearing things.
The King of Hell told her to sit and dine with them?! Oh God!
Although she was starving, she knew her position. In the Princeâs residence, her position was the lowest of the low. Yet, this man that was as handsome as an Immortal actually told her to sit and dine with them?
Although Le Yao Yao was bashful, she was also very pleased. It turned out the King of Hell could be considerate!
He knew how to be empathetic. Not bad!
âSenior brother, âheâ is only aâŠ.â Before Nangong Jun Xi could say the word âservantâ, Leng Jun Yu gave him a warning glare.
Both Nangong Jun Xiâs red lips and peach blossom eyes were opened wide.
After all, he honestly couldnât believe it!
How could his senior brother have changed so much?!
For instance, in the past, his senior brother didnât like to smile. But now, he smiles.
Also, his senior brother used to be icy cold. But now, he was beginning to care about othersâŠ.although the âothersâ was only the little eunuchâŠ
How come his senior brother was icy cold towards everyone except for the little eunuch?! Could it be because the little eunuch had some abilities and was quite attractive? His smile was cute tooâŠ.
Oh my goodness. Could senior brother like the little eunuch?!
Nangong Jun Xiâs sudden thought shocked him. Now, his peach blossom eyes were taking turns staring at Le Yao Yao and Leng Jun Yu back and forth.
The more he observed, the more it seemed like there was something going on between the twoâŠ
After all, earlier he had already caught the little eunuch secretly peeking at senior brother. And senior brother treated the little eunuch very differentlyâŠ
Except, currently, Le Yao Yaoâs attention was all on Leng Jun Yu. So she didnât notice Nangong Jun Xiâs stunned expression.
As for Leng Jun Yu, he probably sensed Le Yao Yaoâs discomfort, so he opened his mouth to ease the situation, âSit down!â
Although Leng Jun Yuâs voice was light, there was a âI wonât take no as an answerâ attitude.
Hearing this, Le Yao Yao felt like she was possessed by a devil and lightly nodded her head.
âYes, thanks Prince Rui.â
Then, Le Yao Yao quickly took a bowl and a pair of chopsticks as she sat in between Leng Jun Yu and Nangong Jun Xi.
This was the first time she was eating with the King of Hell, so Le Yao Yao felt very strange.
âIf youâre hungry, eat!â
Because Le Yao Yao was truly too hungry, all she wanted to do was fill her empty tummy. She was literally eating like a wolf devouring a tiger.
Nangong Jun Xi couldnât believe Le Yao Yaoâs table manners. His peach blossom eyes were appalled as he exclaimed, âAre you the reincarnation of a starving ghost?!â
In response, Le Yao Yao rolled her eyes at him. However, her hands and mouth never stopped. She continued to stuff her mouth with food.
Seeing this, Nangong Jun Xiâs mouth couldnât help but twitch. He had never seen someone eat with such terrible table manners his entire life.
As a noble, although Nangong Jun Xi was quite mischievous, he had a very good upbringing.
He ate, used, dressed the best. In addition, all his movements were confident and graceful. Furthermore, the people he was associated with were all jianghu people that were well respected. He had never encountered someone like the little eunuch.
Could âhisâ tiny mouth really fit so much food? He wasnât going to choke?
While Nangong Jun Xi was wondering, suddenly Le Yao Yaoâs eyes grew wide and the chopsticks fell from her hands.
