Since he could tell I was careless, I wasn't so embarrassed anymore. Ah Fu behind me coughed softly, and I stepped back obediently. Song Heng also gently let go of my hand and said, "Let's go in and have lunch."
I nodded and stepped aside to his side - Song Heng, this is the person I want to travel with.
After Song Heng and I sat down, a waiter tried all the dishes on the table to confirm that they were all right and then left. Then Ah Fu, Xiao Tao and Xiao Cui naturally left the room and closed the door.
It's broad daylight, is it really that serious...
Now, Song Heng and I were the only ones left in the room, sitting face to face at the square table. Song Heng stood up and moved a few dishes. I was confused for a moment, then I realized that the dishes in front of me had been replaced with some of my favorite dishes recently.
"You and I didn't want to waste too much, so we didn't make so many dishes." He said as he put down a plate.
At a glance, there were six or seven dishes. Although they were all small plates, I felt that it was quite a lot. Of course, compared with the 108 dishes introduced in the books about some emperors, it was indeed much better.
I nodded, agreeing very much: "That's right, save food, waste is shameful."
"Well, Shuang'er, you should eat more later." Song Heng picked up the bowl and spoon while smiling.
Seeing Song Heng start eating, I was no longer restrained and picked up the wooden chopsticks to pick up the Kung Pao Chicken in front of me. Just as the spicy and fragrant chicken fell into my bowl, Song Heng placed a bowl of seasonal vegetable soup in front of me.
I stopped putting the chopsticks into my mouth, and he said to me in a gentle voice: "Drink some soup to warm your stomach first." His tone was gentle as if he was coaxing a child.
Then of course I am——
She put down her chopsticks obediently, nodded, and took it with both hands, then smiled sweetly at him: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
After drinking it, he naturally handed me a silk handkerchief to wipe my mouth. I took it and wiped the corner of my mouth before I realized something was wrong——
Are you really used to being served by Xiao Cui and Xiao Tao?!
Who was that person in front of him? The Emperor of Song Hua! The Emperor above all others!? The people serving him food lined up from the palace gate to the city gate, endlessly!
What am I doing? Am I seeking death by overstepping my bounds?!
Stiffly putting down the silk handkerchief, I met Song Heng's still gentle gaze with a guilty conscience: "Your Majesty... let me serve the food for Your Majesty."
He paused for a moment and then curled his lips slightly: "Okay."
He looked at the dish in front of him: "Fish-flavored eggplant."
The food was right in front of me. I picked up a bowl, picked up a few pieces, and then stood up and handed the bowl to him. As soon as I stood up, he looked at me and said, "You eat."
?
I pointed at myself in a daze: "Me?"
He nodded.
I ate a piece with trepidation, but the power of food is really enough to comfort the heart, and by the end of the meal I was really in the state of savoring the food.
After finishing it, I suddenly realized: "Your Majesty...?"
“Kung Pao Chicken.”
I quickly grabbed it and asked, "Is this much okay?"
He seemed to think seriously for a moment before saying, "Hmm."
When I handed him the dish respectfully with both hands again, he smiled softly and said, "You eat it."
I was stunned, but he continued to ask: "Is this enough?"
I looked at the bowl, which contained exactly the right amount of diced chicken, and nodded.
"Then eat." He said to me with his right hand supporting his face.
As I was eating, I realized that he had no intention of letting me serve the food, he just wanted me to eat.
When I put down my bowl and wanted to ask him to eat some, he seemed to understand what I was thinking: "This time, I'll have the sea bass."
After he said that, I naturally stopped talking and picked out the most tender and delicious parts, put them on the plate and served them with both hands.
He smiled and said, "I'll eat, you feed me."
I opened my eyes and smiled in my heart - I will feed it.
After confirming that it was boneless, I picked up a piece of fish and passed it to his mouth. My eyes naturally fell on his thin lips.
Alas, you must keep your mind clear, Mu Chenshuang.
He opened his lips and took a bite. The fish meat was soft and could be swallowed with just a light chew.
After trying several times, I finally picked up all the fish from the plate.
"Shuang'er," he lowered his eyes, "Your hands are very beautiful."
"Your lips too." I replied subconsciously.
Song Heng:?
I:!
I put the plate down with a thud, a storm already swirling in my head: "I mean—"
He looked up at me slightly, and I looked down at him, and time seemed to stand still.
Finally, he chuckled and lowered his head to look at my hands that were resting on the table: "I think your hands are beautiful. I really want to touch them with my own hands."
"Since you think my lips are beautiful," he looked up at me again, "why don't we just go our separate ways."
? !
The only person who can say such frivolous things so politely is probably the one in front of me!
"...I'm not full yet." The truth is always flawless, even if it may ruin the atmosphere.
"Okay." But there are always people who can calmly and easily control any atmosphere: "Shuang'er, eat slowly, there's no rush."
I sat back down opposite him, and now both of us were in the perfect state of “eating without talking”.
Feeling a little guilty, I glanced at Song Heng while picking up the food. He looked calm and composed, his slender knuckles holding the long chopsticks as he leisurely picked up the food.
As I was concentrating on eating, I heard the sound of Song Heng putting down his bowl and chopsticks, and then I saw him wiping the corner of his lips with a handkerchief beside him.
Tsk, what I just said was the pure truth.
I finished the food in my bowl in a few bites. After wiping it with a silk handkerchief, I heard Song Heng ask in a gentle voice, "Have you finished eating?"
It was just an ordinary question, so I didn't think much of it. I put down the handkerchief and said "hmm", sighing from the bottom of my heart: "The dishes in the imperial kitchen are becoming more and more delicious."
