As soon as he walked out of the room, Ji Yuqi saw maids in uniform serving dishes to the dining table one after another.
The large dining table is almost full of food.
Ji Yuqi couldn't help but frown.
Although he hadn't been in the Imperial Mansion for long, Pei Yucheng was always extravagant when he had dinner there. However, this was the first time Ji Yucheng had seen such a grand occasion.
That can no longer be described as extravagant and wasteful.
If wasting food would result in being struck by lightning, Pei Yucheng would be dead.
Still in the tragic form of ashes.
Ji Yuqi definitely couldn't understand the situation on the scene.
I just feel that there must be a very important person coming to the Imperial Mansion.
However, even if we are welcoming the emperor of Country Z, there is no need to be so extravagant.
Ji Yuqi glanced casually at the selection: premium king crab, French Britannia blue lobster, Caspian Sea pearl sturgeon caviar, diamond-grade Italian white truffles, Spanish Iberian ham, French foie gras…
Ji Yuqi didn't dare to look any further.
These dishes, how can they be called dishes?
It was clearly piled there with red banknotes.
One bite of those top-notch dishes would probably cost an average office worker in the capital a month's salary.
Ji Yuqi stood in the hall, watching the maid bring in the dishes, which took a full twenty minutes.
By 8:40 in the evening, there were signs of a slowdown.
It was nine o'clock in the evening when Pei Yucheng went downstairs.
Liu Tong had just come out of the kitchen, wearing snow-white gloves, and was carefully counting the dishes, fearing that anything was missed.
Ji Yuqi went back to his room.
When he came out again, Pei Yucheng was already sitting in the main seat of the restaurant.
Liu Tong stood beside him as usual.
Ji Yuqi glanced around the restaurant several times and didn't see any guests of noble status. She immediately became very suspicious.
Is Pei Yucheng dining alone?!
Wouldn't it be too exaggerated to have such a big table?!
However, Ji Yuqi was not in the mood to pay attention to him.
Her stomach hurts so much.
She just wanted to find Liu Tong and get two stomach medicine pills.
The moment Ji Yuqi appeared in the restaurant, Liu Tong noticed her abnormality and quickly asked, "Miss Ji, what's wrong with you?!"
Ji Yuqi's face turned pale.
The forehead and the tip of the nose were covered with a thin layer of sweat-absorbing material.
Everything was fine just now.
Now?!
"Manager Liu, is there any ranitidine in the mansion? Can you give me two tablets?!" Ji Yuqi was in so much pain that he had no strength in his legs.
"Ranitidine?! Miss Ji, do you have a stomachache?!" Liu Tong asked.
Ji Yuqi pressed his stomach with one hand and nodded.
Liu Tong subconsciously glanced at the man in the main seat before responding, "I'll go to the medicine storeroom and get it for you right away. You can rest on the sofa for a while."
"Excuse me, Manager Liu."
Liu Tong took off his gloves and immediately went out through the side door.
While waiting for Liu Tong to get the medicine, Ji Yuqi felt a little unsteady on his feet, so he simply walked to the sofa in the hall and sat down.
The dish is served.
There was no sign of any servants in the hall.
There were only her and Pei Yucheng.
The atmosphere at the scene was very quiet.
Ji Yuqi once glanced in the direction of the restaurant.
When he learned that she had a stomachache, Pei Yucheng not only didn't even frown, but was even playing with his cell phone.
“…” Ji Yuqi felt his stomachache getting more and more severe.
This man is really cold-blooded.
Ji Yuqi kept complaining in his heart.
Even if he no longer had any feelings for her, she was still the mother of his child. The superficial hypocrisy should still be put behind him.
result……
Ji Yuqi couldn't help but increase the strength of his hand pressing on his stomach.
While she was hesitating whether to go back to her room and lie down for a while, Commander Liu was about to come back. Since she was no longer in the hall, he would definitely send her to her room.
She really had no strength.
Even sitting is difficult.
However, before she could get up, Pei Yucheng's mellow voice suddenly sounded: "How long will it take to reach the Yu Mansion?!"
Ji Yuqi was stunned immediately.
It took a long time for the brain to react before it finally came to its senses: Pei Yucheng was on the phone.
When Ji Yuqi thought that the other party must be a powerful figure, Ning Ruyan's voice came from the other end of the phone.
Pei Yucheng should have turned on the video call.
"How long will it take to reach the Imperial Palace?!" Ning Ruyan's voice seemed a little confused.
Pei Yucheng said, "I asked the kitchen to prepare a table full of your favorite dishes, but they are almost cold."
Ji Yuqi didn’t hear clearly what Pei Yucheng and Ning Ruyan talked about afterwards.
Because she could no longer control her behavior and returned to her room.
According to the rules of the mansion, except for major traditional festivals, dinner is not allowed to be prepared after 8 o'clock in the evening.
Even if it can be prepared, it will be in the form of a midnight snack.
However, for Ning Ruyan, Pei Yucheng not only broke the family's avoidance etiquette and asked servants to walk back and forth in the main house, but also prepared a dinner that could not be described as a "gluttonous feast".
Just now, when she and Fu Sheng were chatting in the hall, she felt strange when she saw Pei Yucheng suddenly come back.
He clearly said in the morning that he had something important to do today and would not be returning home for dinner.
It turns out that for Ning Ruyan, Pei Yucheng can break all the rules and regulations...
