The welcoming banquet began in an eerie silence.
Chi Sui ate with trepidation because she was afraid that Long Xi was really feeling unwell, so her attention was focused on the Demon King the whole time.
She didn't even eat much herself.
Kenneth looked at Chi Sui's appearance and frowned secretly.
Ruan Ruan observed his expression. She had been entangled with the third prince for so long that she had long seen through his superficial gentleness.
Ruan Ruan wiped the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief and chuckled: "Sister Chi and her brother-in-law have a really good relationship."
After these words were spoken, the atmosphere at the table became even weirder.
Chi Sui looked up in confusion, wanting to clarify, but when he remembered that Long Xi's official identity was her lover, he smiled and did not respond.
Fu Mingcheng saw Chi Sui didn't deny it, and he was furious. She was obviously his fiancée! But now she was being affectionate with another man!
Long Xi paused in his eating and saw that Chi Sui did not deny it. The gentleman's words in the book told him that this was not a good thing, but a secret joy inexplicably rose in his heart.
Long Xi lowered his eyes and looked at the dish that Chi Sui had picked up in the bowl. He felt that his behavior was not that of a gentleman. Feeling a little guilty, he began to think about why he had been having some strange emotions recently.
When Chi Sui saw that Long Xi didn't even eat his meal and was just standing there in a daze with his lips pursed, he became nervous in an instant.
Is this ancestor...about to faint again?!
After the dinner, Chi Sui asked Aole to entertain these people on her behalf. After saying goodbye to the third prince, she dragged Long Xi back to the study.
The sky was dark at this time, and the fluorite lamps on the roadside emitted a warm yellow glow.
Chi Sui pulled Long Xi's arm and walked in front, while Long Xi walked slowly behind with Chi Sui holding one of his hands.
The shadows of the two people were getting closer and closer, and Long Xi felt a little dazed.
Suddenly, Chi Sui stopped.
Long Xi raised his eyes and found that the two had arrived at the garden of the main castle, and the swing was swaying gently under the light.
A warm hand reached out, and Chi Sui touched Long Xi's forehead. Considering that the dragon's body temperature is usually slightly lower than that of humans, he could roughly tell that the other party did not have a fever just by touching him.
Chi Sui breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank goodness I don't have a fever."
Chi Sui let go of Long Xi's hand and sat down on the swing.
Long Xi stood there, the warm yellow light made the shadows under his eyelashes look very long.
Chi Sui's heart skipped a beat, and he thought, Long Xi seems to have become even more handsome since he fell ill this time.
"I'm not feeling unwell anywhere."
Long Xi walked over and sat down next to Chi Sui.
The swing sank a little and began to sway violently.
Chi Sui subconsciously reached out and grabbed the swing chain.
She looked sideways at Long Xi in confusion: "Then you were covering your chest at that time...?"
Long Xi pursed his lips. He raised his eyes, and Chi Sui's face was clearly reflected in his crimson pupils. "I don't know why, but my chest felt tight at that time."
Chi Sui frowned: "Longlong, you are not having a heart disease, are you?"
Long Xi was a little confused: "Can dragons also have heart disease?"
Chi Sui stroked his chin in thought: "As a dragon, don't you also have innate deficiencies?"
"Even dragons have congenital deficiencies, so why can't they have heart disease?"
Chi Sui felt that his analysis made sense.
So she looked at Long Xi, trying to get his approval.
Long Xi frowned and covered his chest: "Then I...maybe I really have a heart disease?"
Chi Sui hissed, "That's not good, Ao Longlong."
Long Xi was puzzled: "Is this disease serious?"
Chi Sui nodded: "Try not to have too many emotional fluctuations in the future."
Long Xi was stunned. He subconsciously touched his heart and analyzed it carefully: "I have never been in such a situation before."
Chi Sui nodded.
“But why is it so frequent now?”
Chi Sui thought for a moment and asked, "Have you had any major mood swings lately? Or is your heartbeat unusually irregular?"
Long Xi looked at Chi Sui's serious face, pursed his lips, and answered honestly: "The mood swings were too big... I didn't pay attention."
"But...sometimes my heart beats really fast."
Chi Sui frowned: "Frequently?"
Long Xi looked away: "Yeah."
Chi Sui quickly placed an order for some fast-acting heart pills on the store and handed the small gourd bottle to Long Xi: "Long Long, when you feel your heart beating fast or you feel uncomfortable, just hold this pill under your tongue."
Long Xi took the medicine bottle and put it back into his sleeve with a serious expression.
"Don't swallow it directly! Swallowing it directly is the wrong way to use it. You should hold it under your tongue. Through the mucous membrane under the tongue, this medicine can enter the blood circulation more quickly."
Long Xi nodded seriously: "I understand."
After Chi Sui finished speaking, he was still a little worried: "Okay, I'll take you back to your room. Do you still have the magic stone? Replenish your body first."
Chi Sui stood up and reached out to pull Long Xi, but found that Long Xi was still sitting on the swing.
"Why aren't you moving?"
Chi Sui bent down.
Long Xi looked towards the kitchen: "I'll go to the kitchen and make you something to eat."
Chi Sui was stunned: "What?"
"You didn't eat much tonight."
Long Xi stood up and walked towards the kitchen, asking, "What do you want to eat?"
Chi Sui stared blankly at Long Xi's departing figure until Long Xi turned around in confusion: "What do you want to eat?"
Chi Sui came back to his senses, his mind still a little distracted: "Long...Long Xi."
Long Xi tilted his head: "Hmm?"
"If I remember correctly, you only know how to make desserts, right?"
Chi Sui's brain finally rebooted successfully.
Long Xi was silent. He paused and asked again, "So, do you have any dessert you want?"
His voice was much softer this time, and he was obviously less confident.
Chi Sui showed his white teeth: "I want to eat the exploding pork chop."
"I won't."
Long Xi was silent.
Chi Sui smiled and said, "I can do it. I'll do it."
After saying that, Chi Sui skipped into the kitchen, looking very happy.
Long Xi looked at Chi Sui's obviously happy back, and the corners of his mouth curled up. He quickly followed: "Let me see what you do."
"No, this is my exclusive secret recipe!"
"I want to see it."
"No."
"Show me, I've learned it, and I'll do it for you next time."
Chi Sui was silent for a long time. Long Xi was a little confused: "Why are you silent?"
Chi Sui raised his head and smiled: "Hehehe, how about I teach you how to make braised pork rice?"
"good."
The light in the kitchen was gentle. Mary stood outside the kitchen and turned to look at Ellie with a smile: "Let's not go in yet. Give the Baroness some space."
Ellie nodded, and as they walked back, Mary smiled, "That's good."
Ellie was a little worried: "But they... have an identity problem... If that person's identity is exposed, I guess..."
Mary and Ellie walked further and further away. Chi Sui's mumbling could be heard from the kitchen: "You need to use rock sugar to make sugar color, white sugar won't work..."
The Lady Baroness paused, then lowered her voice: "What's the situation with your elven Holy Envoy of Light?"
