Especially seeing her looking as if she had been bullied, he didn't even realize that the corners of his lips were slightly raised.
His tone was gentle.
What are you still standing there for?
Su Yan walked over with her head down, knowing that it was time to serve him his meal.
She stood in front of the table, picked up the chopsticks next to her, and was about to make a move.
Suddenly, a strong hand grabbed her sleeve and pulled her to the seat of honor.
Xuanyuan Yonghao's eyes swept across her face.
"Where is the sweetness coming from?"
Su Yan blinked and swallowed the candy that was in her mouth.
Then he spoke.
"I ate outside just now."
Her tone was soft, and as she spoke, the flavor of milk candy became even stronger.
In this era, there are candies, and there are also nougat.
He had eaten it before, but for some reason, it just smelled much better than what she was eating.
And so...
He tapped the table with his fingertips, and a memory flashed through his mind of the milk candy she had taken out of her purse that day.
His gaze swept over the purse tied around her waist.
He coughed, sounding weak and sickly; he probably hadn't recovered since falling into the water.
Su Yan blinked and spoke.
"This servant will get you a cloak."
He was about to leave when someone tugged at his sleeve and pulled him back.
He was sickly and harmless
"No."
As he spoke, he met Su Yan's gaze and coughed heavily again.
"The medicine I usually drink is bitter, but the candy you gave me last time was quite sweet. Do you have any more?"
Su Yan nodded obediently
"have"
As he spoke, he untied his purse and took out a piece of paper.
The sugar cubes were wrapped in oil paper and handed over.
Xuanyuan Yonghao glanced at it but didn't take it. His eyelashes trembled slightly, and a bitter look appeared on his face.
"I am weak, and taking medicine once more won't cure me."
He stared at a sickly, harmless face, and just listening to his words evoked a feeling of pity in one's heart.
Before Su Yan could speak, Xiao Hua spoke up.
"Host, the male lead is so pitiful, so heartbreaking, give him everything."
Su Yan looked at her purse, then at Xuan Yuan Yonghao.
She gripped the purse tightly. Did this person want to inherit all her candy from the very beginning?
They have no food to eat, and now they have to give away all their candy.
Su Yan lowered her head and said
"If Your Highness wishes to eat it, you can order the Imperial Kitchen to make it. They can make any kind of candy."
A soft voice, protecting its last bit of food.
A glint flashed in Xuanyuan Yonghao's eyes.
He looked a bit dazed, but I didn't expect him to react so quickly.
Just as she was about to tie the purse back on, a finger reached out from the side and hooked the purse strap.
With a gentle pull, it was dragged over and instantly ended up in Xuan Yuan Yong Hao's hands.
His tone was gentle, his eyelids lowered as he looked at the candy in his hand.
"It's just a bag of candy, you can't bear to part with it?"
He held it in his hand and weighed it.
He still looked sickly, but he was no longer as fragile as before; instead, he seemed to have a relaxed air about him.
Su Yan felt sullen; his attitude clearly indicated that he wasn't going to give it to her.
She hadn't eaten and was already weak, and then she was dragged here to be waited on, and they even took her candy.
As I was thinking, everything went black before my eyes, my legs went weak, and I fell straight forward.
Xuanyuan Yonghao was taken aback by the sudden embrace.
Holding her, it was pretty much as I had imagined; her soft body and sweet fragrance filled the air.
