Chapter 46 Eating in the Clouds



"Jiaojiao, since we're already out, let's go for a walk on the street! We can just go straight to the restaurant later," Chu Tianling quickly suggested.

He didn't want to talk about Zhao Ruyue any further, and touched his nose, realizing that he had indeed gone a bit too far.

Shen Jiaojiao nodded.

Without even needing to be told, Zhou Tianqi had already found a spot to park the carriage. Ah! How considerate I am!

No wonder he was well-trained by the butler; he learned the essence in just three days. He's just as good as me.

The two were walking slowly down the street when they suddenly saw Wang Haotian and Chen Baozhu picking out hairpins in the distance.

Wang Haotian was dressed rather plainly before, but today he was dressed in a flowing white robe, which made him look exceptionally noble, like a wealthy young master.

He wore a gentle smile and softly echoed the woman beside him, making them look like a loving couple from a distance.

Chen Baozhu, on the other side, was wearing a light yellow embroidered butterfly dress today. The hem of the dress swayed gently, making her look very charming and radiating a delicate and bright aura.

Shen Jiaojiao pulled Chu Tianling around and walked towards another block.

Last time she said she had her eye on Chu Tianling! This time she's fallen for someone else.

She rolled her eyes at Chu Tianling.

Chu Tianling also saw the two people in front of him. He didn't know that the man was Wang Haotian, otherwise he would have broken his legs.

All I saw was Chen Baozhu, the silly girl who made Jiao Jiao laugh last time, but this time she was met with Jiao Jiao's disdain.

She pouted and said to Jiaojiao, feeling wronged, "Jiaojiao...why are you looking at me like that? I didn't do anything! I feel so wronged!"

Zhou Tianqi automatically stepped back and moved further away.

Shen Jiaojiao was amused by his antics and stopped being angry. She comforted him, "Okay, be normal. We're on the street. I don't want to be stared at!"

Chu Tianling regained his composure and said, "Oh! By the way, there's a rather unique restaurant up ahead called Yunshangtian. You haven't eaten there yet, have you? Let's go there today."

Shen Jiaojiao became curious: "How unique is this? Let's go take a look!"

Zhou Tianqi heard this from afar and silently quickened his pace to shorten the distance. I was curious too, hehe.

Yunshangtian is located at the very corner of the street. Usually, this location is remote and has few customers, but this restaurant is different.

It looks unremarkable from the outside, but the constant stream of customers going in is quite strange.

Until the curtain of the gate was lifted, all that could be seen on the ground was a misty white fog. I wondered how the ancients were able to create such an ethereal atmosphere.

That's amazing!

Moreover, there was a faint, cool fragrance in the air, which smelled exceptionally pleasant.

Each dining table is separated by a classic screen, providing exceptional privacy.

I felt that I unconsciously walked softly and spoke in a low voice when dining in such a place.

Shen Jiaojiao looked at this place, which resembled a fairy palace, with curiosity and said expectantly, "This place is indeed special. I can't wait for the dishes to be served!"

Chu Tianling put his arm around her and sat down at a window seat. He said to the waiter, "Waiter, bring out all your signature dishes. Set up two tables and put the bill on me."

The waiter turned and left. Zhou Tianqi's mouth was practically hanging out. Without waiting for instructions, he sat down on the left side of their table.

Ah! It's so wonderful to be with His Highness the Crown Prince! Every second is filled with joy and happiness!

Seeing how self-aware Zhou Tianqi was, Chu Tianling nodded inwardly, "Not bad, not bad, he has good judgment."

The food was still cooking when two familiar faces walked in through the door.

You can't see the person on the other side clearly through the screen, but Chen Baozhu's voice is so distinctive that you'll remember it after just one listen.

"Haotian, what do you think? Isn't this Cloud Heaven quite special?"

When Wang Haotian first stepped into such a luxurious place, the shock in his eyes was impossible to hide.

Although he tried to appear calm, his eyes betrayed him.

For some unknown stroke of luck, Chen Baozhu pulled Wang Haotian to sit on the other side of Shen Jiaojiao and the other woman, separated only by a screen.

Shen Jiaojiao sat up straight and pricked up her ears to listen to the conversation next door.

Chen Baozhu stared intently at Wang Haotian, her eyes revealing undisguised affection.

Ah, he looks even better in this new outfit. It was definitely worth it to make him wear this today.

Anyway, we're rich, so supporting another man isn't difficult.

Wang Haotian felt a little embarrassed by the intense gazes, and his ears secretly turned red.

Feeling a little awkward, she asked, "Baozhu, why are you staring at me like that?"

I think you're pretty! Hehe!

"Cough cough!" Wang Haotian took an uncomfortable sip of water.

The dishes were served quickly. Chen Baozhu picked up a piece of roast duck and put it in his bowl, saying considerately, "Try this roast duck, it tastes so good, it's my favorite dish!"

As soon as Wang Haotian put the roast duck in his mouth, a crispy sensation came over him—it was the skin. Then the meat inside slowly melted, releasing a fragrant aroma that wasn't greasy at all.

It was really delicious, and he couldn't resist picking up a piece himself.

Seeing how much he liked it, Chen Baozhu felt they had found common ground again, and she immediately became happy, unable to resist praising him.

"Haotian, I didn't expect we have the same taste! You know what? This duck is special."

"These are ducks specially raised in the resort. They eat corn every day, drink spring water, and there are even people specifically responsible for bathing them every day."

"The resort strictly controls the ducks' daily schedule, down to what time they get up to eat, the distance they exercise each day, and they are also given special playmates to ensure that every duck grows up happily."

"When killing them, we give them wine first, and then kill them after they are drunk, so that the ducks will not suffer when they die. That's why this dish is particularly expensive, costing 100 taels!"

Wang Haotian was stunned. Looking at the roast duck on the plate, he thought, "This amount is less than a whole duck, isn't it?"

This costs a hundred taels?

My family's annual income isn't even enough to buy a plate of roast duck.

Suddenly I felt a little inferior. I felt like a weed by the roadside. Could I really make her marry me?

Despite Wang Haotian's inferiority complex, his hands never stopped moving; he was just showing off.

When Chen Baozhu tried to take a bite, all that was left of her favorite roast duck was the broth on the plate.

She was a little unhappy and pouted.

Seeing that things were going badly, Wang Haotian immediately lowered his voice and pretended to be weak, saying, "Baozhu, I have never eaten such delicious roast duck in my life. I am so grateful to you."

"You are like a treasure sent to me by God. Every moment since I met you has been filled with happiness."

"I feel that the meaning of my life might be to meet you, my baby!"

Chen Baozhu had never heard such a sweet confession before, and her initial displeasure had long since vanished.

She felt that the man in front of her was radiating a captivating light, making her want to take him home as soon as possible.

Besides Shen Jiaojiao, a man in blue upstairs also noticed this scene.

His face grew increasingly dark as he slowly walked down the stairs.
