Return to the Noble Family, Eight Brothers Exclusively Dote On Me

Xiao Xi is a pitiful little girl who was abandoned. She could only survive by scavenging tr*sh and living in a shack.

One day, a distinguished and aloof CEO, with red eyes, said: “You are m...

Chapter 142 Lady Shangyi Testifies (1/2)

Xiaoxi took out the dishes she had just researched at Zuixianlou.

Individual hot pot.

She had just finished researching it that morning and originally planned to launch it for tasting at the restaurant that evening, but then Changjie Zhuige forgot about it.

She had just tricked Awang and Acai into coming in, and from the steamed dumplings she thought of food, and from food she thought of the small hot pot in the corner of her storage bag.

Xiaoxi immediately brought out three exquisite little stoves with silver charcoal, a cute little hot pot, and a variety of dishes that were generously provided for the three of them.

The side hall was dark, so Xiaoxi took out the energy-saving lamp she had bought at the supermarket, and also took out the energy panel.

Feeling that wasn't enough, they folded tables and chairs, and eventually even brought out a heater.

That feels good now.

After all, the winters in the underworld are cold and damp, and this is a side hall. Xiao Xi took out so many things just to make herself comfortable, even though she wouldn't be staying here for long.

"Eat up! I brought out enough for three people, with you all in mind."

The two of them didn't dare to eat, so Xiaoxi started eating first.

She now possesses the skills of a royal chef; the flavors are so enticing they could lose their souls.

The boxed lunches served by the servants in the flower hall were all cold; nothing compared to the tempting hot pot.

These are things that don't exist in the underworld.

They couldn't resist and started eating ravenously.

Xiaoxi wanted this effect: firstly, people would feel obligated to eat her food, and secondly, eating delicious food would lower their guard, plus it was a three-person meal.

Before long, they treated Xiaoxi like an acquaintance, and they spoke freely and without reservation.

Xiaoxi finally got the information she wanted to know.

It turns out the young man in black is the younger brother of King Chujiang; no wonder he's called the Little Prince. His name is Li Heng.

That lady was Lady Shangyi, a female official. She was not Li Heng's biological mother. Li Heng brought her back from outside this year and recognized her as his godmother.

She wasn't initially a female official, but later King Chujiang discovered her great knowledge and appointed her as a female official. The Lady Shangyi was in charge of books and education.

Having obtained all the important information, Xiaoxi was 80% certain that Madam Shangyi was her mother.

No wonder Mom hasn't woken up yet, she's in the underworld. Sigh, is it amnesia again? Xiaoxi is so fed up with the word "amnesia" that she's completely exasperated.

At this moment, Awang and Acai started talking again about how good the young prince was to them.

"Fine, why can't you come into the palace to serve me?"

The two men said somewhat awkwardly that they were not the fathers-in-law, but rather that the young prince had bought them from outside.

The young prince said that he was an incomplete person and needed to accumulate some good karma so that he could release them in the future and let them live normal lives.

An incomplete person? No wonder she's so fair-skinned?

Their master and servant shared a deep bond, but Xiaoxi didn't want to hear about it.

"Since your master treats you well, what happened when she said she would die after losing the shumai last time?"

Ah Wang Ah Cai said that it was because Lady Shangyi liked to eat siu mai that their master cared so much about anything concerning Lady Shangyi.

"Alright, alright, everyone disperse!"

After eating and drinking well, Xiaoxi had learned almost everything she needed to know.

Xiaoxi quickly changed things and packed away everything.

If it weren't for the lingering smell of hot pot in the side hall and their overflowing bellies, one would think it was all an illusion.

Xiao Xi slowly walked back to the main hall where the banquet was being held. Before she even stepped across the threshold, she heard ghostly wails and howls coming from inside.

Xiao Xi was stunned. These things from the underworld were indeed perplexing. Wasn't today their King Yama's birthday? What was going on?

Xiao Xi stepped into the main hall and "whoosh" appeared beside Ye Xingxian. "Brother, I found out!"

Suddenly, they noticed that Fifth Brother's expression was not good, and the entire hall suddenly became unusually quiet. They all looked at Xiao Xi.

Xiaoxi looked at the person kneeling in the middle.
