Chapter 288 That's called beauty

When Helian Yue first heard what Li Sheng said, he thought there was nothing wrong with it.

Eating spicy food will indeed make your mouth swollen.

But his intuition told him after he glanced at Si Linglong and the strange expressions on the two maids beside her.

There's something going on here.

He pretended to be confused and asked Li Sheng, "Did Concubine Lang Gui tell you this? Why did you mention this?"

There wasn’t any spicy food on Yutai Mountain before.

Little Li Sheng nodded and was about to answer, but Si Linglong would never give her a chance. She stretched out her hand and simply covered the little girl's mouth, quickly explaining, "She was a little curious about chili peppers before, and I was afraid that she would eat something that upset her stomach, so I told her this to scare her."

As he spoke, he picked up little Li Sheng, said he was going to change clothes, and ran away.

Unfortunately, no matter how fast she ran, her heartbeat still reached Helian Yue's ears uncontrollably.

[Oh dear, if you keep talking like that, I’ll lose face. 】

[It's all Helian Yue's fault! If it wasn't for the last time... that caused my mouth to swell, would I have bothered to use such words to get rid of the little guy?! ]

Helian Yue was stunned at first, but when he realized what she meant by "last time", he couldn't help but chuckle.

He didn't laugh often. Most of the time, his smile was fake, unlike now, when he was smiling with a rare carefree joy.

Fu Tai, who was standing by, was completely dumbfounded.

This is something I have never seen before.

But why doesn’t he understand the emperor’s sense of humor?

What was so interesting about it that made the master smile like that?

Oh, I guess he is old.

At dinner time, Si Linglong deliberately handed little Li Sheng to Shu Hong and the others, and came over to accompany Helian Yue for dinner as if nothing had happened.

However, when he saw the hot pot on the table, his eyes twitched uncontrollably.

Si Linglong looked away and calmly sat there, "Actually, I've been avoiding spicy food lately."

"Ha." Helian Yue couldn't help laughing again.

As Fu Tai had already seen this once, he said he was very calm at this moment.

The emperor's sense of humor today is a little strange.

Si Linglong's eyes widened as if she saw a monster.

【What is he laughing at? 】

【He laughed at me?】

[He smiles... He looks so good when he smiles! Damn, I can't stand it! ]

Helian Yue didn't know what kind of dog Yan Gou was, but he was used to all kinds of dogs. He waved his hand to signal Fu Tai and the servants around him to leave, and waved to Si Linglong, "Come here."

Although he stopped smiling, the slightly raised curve at the corner of his mouth had not yet faded, and even the gesture of calling the puppy seemed to have become more intimate. Si Linglong subconsciously walked to the seat next to him and sat down.

"What did the emperor just laugh at?"

Helian Yue glanced at her and asked, "I smiled?"

Si Linglong nodded seriously, "Smiled."

Helian Yue said, "My beloved concubine is mistaken."

Si Linglong's mind immediately flashed with several question marks, "Are you doubting my 1.0 vision?"

She glanced at Helian Yue secretly again, thinking, "You didn't just laugh just now, you also did this, and snorted."

Si Linglong imitated the feeling of his laughter just now in her mind and let out a very evil and seductive laugh.

Helian Yue had just brought a cup of tea when he nearly choked on it because of her imitation of the evil laughter. He couldn't help but glare at her.

Am I such a frivolous person?!

Helian Yue ignored her and said, "Prepare the meal."

Fortunately, this was not the first time Si Linglong had accompanied the man for dinner, and she knew the man's arrogance and did not take it to heart.

[Well, because you look good eating. ]

Helian Yue:? ?

According to his preference, Si Linglong put the meat slices into the pot first. The tender red beef rolled in the red soup for a few times and was quickly brought up. Si Linglong smelled the spicy aroma and felt like drooling.

He quickly picked up a few slices for Helian Yue, and then very naturally put a few slices into his own bowl.

However, before she could sit down again to eat, she saw Helian Yue suddenly stretched out his chopsticks and, with a normal expression, took away all the beef slices in her bowl.

Si Linglong:? ?

Helian Yue met her puzzled gaze, his face completely calm, and said, "Didn't my beloved concubine just say to give up spicy food?"

Si Linglong was a little confused, she was right when she said that just now.

But……

Looking at the table full of spicy dishes, she couldn't help but ask, "What do you want to eat?"

Helian Yue pointed to a plate of bean cakes not far away and said, "That one, or, just watch me eat it."

As Helian Yue spoke, he picked up a piece of beef wrapped in red oil and put it into his mouth, snorting in his heart.

Aren’t you here to watch me cook?

The word is beauty to behold!

If you call this an appetizer, then you are the one who eats it!
