Chapter 209 The Rice Eater



Perhaps it was because Aoqian looked so reassuring that even Meng Shu, who had been threatened by him the whole way, dared to speak up.

"Excuse me, gentlemen, could you please say something? You can continue later..."

Upon hearing this, Song Xiwei exclaimed with delight, "Okay! Go ahead!"

Aoqian also looked towards Mengshu.

"I'm hungry. Can I rest in this town for a while, eat something, and then continue my journey? The weather isn't good anyway..."

Meng Shu was very careful, afraid that the two of them would not agree.

He boldly added, "Or, I'll get off the carriage to get something to eat, and you can continue in the carriage?"

Ao Qian narrowed his eyes, looking completely different from his previous dazed and simple-minded appearance.

Song Xiwei chuckled, "Continue what? Stop arguing, he's completely defeated."

Upon hearing this, Ao Qian glanced at Song Xiwei with a somber expression, "Yes, yes, yes, I am utterly defeated, I have lost."

Song Xiwei ignored Aoqian and had the carriage stop at an inn, where the three of them asked for a private room.

When the waiter came to take our order, Song Xiwei pointed at Meng Shu and said, "You order."

Just as Meng Shu was about to speak, Ao Qian snatched the menu from his hand and rattled off a long string of words.

The waiter went downstairs happily.

Meng Shu sat there, barely daring to breathe.

Song Xiwei's mind was buzzing before she finally realized, "Didn't we tell him to order?"

Ao Qian glanced coldly at Meng Shu, "You can order separately and eat somewhere else!"

Meng Shu quickly shook his head, "I'm fine with anything, I'm not picky."

Song Xi frowned slightly. "What are you doing? You're being fierce again!"

Ao Qian sighed, "He's the one who begged us to help, and he still thinks he's some kind of prince?"

Song Xi glared at Ao Qian, “…”

Why did things suddenly explode again while we were eating?

After the dishes were served, Song Xiwei saw that the table was full of her favorite flavors.

She tasted it with delight, and it was not bad. Perhaps because she had been traveling for the past few days and mostly sleeping outdoors, although she was a master of fasting and could not do without food, the satisfaction that these delicious foods brought her had already been cultivated into a terrible habit by Aoqian's three meals a day during this period.

After taking a few bites, seeing that Meng Shu wasn't eating, she quickly asked him, "Aren't you hungry? Why aren't you eating? Is there nothing you like to eat?"

Song Xiwei wondered whether she should order some more for Meng Shu.

Meng Shu quickly shook his head, "Yes, there are many foods that I love to eat..."

As he spoke, he picked up his chopsticks to pick up some food, but before the chopsticks even touched the food, he suddenly felt a sharp gaze staring at him, making his hands tremble.

He looked up and, sure enough, Ao Qian was staring at him.

Meng Shu shakily moved his chopsticks to another dish. Just as he was about to pick up some food, Ao Qian coughed, his eyes even colder than before.

Meng Shu no longer dared to pick up any food.

Song Xiwei ate a few bites with satisfaction, then looked up and saw that Meng Shu still hadn't picked up any food. He was just shoveling rice into his bowl, and it was clear that he was really hungry. He ate the rice very quickly, and it was almost empty.

"Don't just eat rice and not vegetables, have a chicken leg, the meat is very tender!" Song Xiwei picked up a chicken leg and was about to put it in Meng Shu's bowl when an empty bowl blocked her way.

Meng Shu's eyes widened, and he swallowed hard. The fragrant chicken leg had been snatched away by Ao Qian.

Aoqian ate the chicken leg that Song Xiwei had picked up with a satisfied look on his face, nodding as he said, "Hmm, it's alright, the meat is indeed quite tender."

When Song Xiwei was about to put a second chicken leg on Meng Shu's plate, Meng Shu put down his chopsticks and said, "I'm full, you don't need to put any more on my plate."

Song Xiwei glanced at Meng Shu, who dared not move, and then looked at Ao Qian, who was eating a chicken leg with a satisfied expression.
