Chapter 25 Dislike?

"Everyone, get up."

Xiao Jinyan's gaze stayed on Shen Chuwei for a while before he retracted his gaze and strode in.

Eunuch Liu said to Chunxi, "Hurry up and serve the meal. Your Highness has not eaten anything for lunch today, so he must be hungry now."

"Okay, I'll prepare it right away." Chunxi walked happily to the small kitchen.

Eunuch Liu ordered two young eunuchs to go and help.

Tao Chenghui couldn't wait to follow His Highness in small steps. This was the first time she had such close contact with His Highness since entering the palace, which made her a little nervous.

"Your Highness, I will make tea for you." Tao Chenghui began to look for tea leaves clumsily.

Xiao Jinyan refused coldly: "No need."

Tao Chenghui responded and stood aside waiting.

Shen Chuwei walked in slowly, straightening her clothes, and glanced at Xiao Jinyan. His handsome face and noble temperament were impossible to ignore.

It also makes people difficult to approach.

She stood aside and waited consciously.

Chunxi brought the dishes to the table one by one, six dishes and one soup, all of which were delicious.

Xiao Jinyan glanced at the dishes on the table. Although there were some unfamiliar items, they made him very hungry. He raised his eyes and looked at Shen Chuwei, "You guys take a seat too."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Tao Chenghui originally wanted to sit next to Xiao Jinyan, but when she saw Shen Chuwei sitting far away, she moved a little and sat next to Shen Chuwei. She always felt that it was right to sit next to her.

Chunxi brought three bowls of fragrant rice and placed them in front of the three masters, then stepped aside and waited.

Xiao Jinyan picked up a piece of potato with the silver chopsticks, put it into his mouth and took a small bite. It melted in his mouth and tasted good.

Shen Chuwei kept staring at Xiao Jinyan, and only picked up her chopsticks and started eating after she saw him eat. The dishes were all her favorites.

Tao Chenghui picked up the chopsticks and glanced at Shen Chuwei first. He saw that she was eating happily. Although her eating manners were not ugly, she did not behave like a lady at all.

Uh! Isn't Shen Fengyi afraid that His Highness will dislike the way he eats?

After hearing this, Xiao Jinyan raised her eyes and looked at Shen Chuwei. Although her eating manners were not very ladylike, she was not disgusting in any way.

When Tao Chenghui looked over, Xiao Jinyan had already retracted his gaze and saw that the prince was eating slowly and did not seem to care whether Shen Chuwei's eating manners were appropriate.

She picked up a piece of eggplant and put it into her mouth. She originally wanted to just take a few bites, but when she put it into her mouth, she found that the dish was super delicious, much better than the ones made in the kitchen.

Shen Chuwei saw Xiao Jinyan had a second bowl of rice. She specially put some stir-fried beef on the plate in front of Xiao Jinyan and said, "Your Highness, please eat slowly."

When Eunuch Liu saw this, he wanted to remind His Highness Shen Fengyi that he didn't like spicy food. But before he could say anything, he saw His Highness pick up the piece of beef, put it into his mouth, and eat it slowly.

Well, this is the legend that he is willing to do anything for his concubine.

After Eunuch Liu reacted, he took a cup of warm water and placed it on the right hand side of His Highness.

Xiao Jinyan calmly picked up the water cup and put it to his lips and took a few sips. He raised his eyes to look at Shen Chuwei, only to see that she was moving her mouth non-stop. He reminded her coldly: "Eat slowly, be careful not to indigestion."

Tao Chenghui thought His Highness was reminding her, so she rushed to answer for fear of being too late, "Thank you for the reminder, Your Highness. I'll remember it."

But I felt very happy in my heart. Your Highness is so nice!

Xiao Jinyan: “…” Am I talking about you?

Shen Chuwei raised her head slightly, and when she found that he was not talking about her, she felt relieved and continued to eat.

She wanted to eat her fill before His Highness finished eating.

Xiao Jinyan looked at Shen Chuwei and found that she was still concentrating on eating. She had eaten most of the plate of stir-fried beef without even drinking a sip of water.

The pink little mouth looked as red as if it had been smeared with rouge after eating the chili pepper.

Xiao Jinyan realized that he had been staring for a little too long, so he withdrew his gaze awkwardly and continued eating.

Tao Chenghui ate her meal in small bites, and looked up at His Highness from time to time. His noble and handsome face, with an expression that kept people at a distance, made her give up the idea of ​​speaking.

She usually only eats one bowl of food to lose weight, but tonight she couldn't help but have a second bowl, mainly because the food was so delicious.

Xiao Jinyan put down his chopsticks after eating two bowls of rice, and Chunxi immediately handed him a wet handkerchief.

Tao Chenghui had only eaten one-third of his second bowl of rice when he saw that His Highness had already put down his bowl and chopsticks, so he had no choice but to do the same.

Shen Chuwei saw the rice in Tao Chenghui's bowl and was glad that she ate quickly tonight, otherwise she would be like Tao Chenghui~

She put down her bowl and chopsticks contentedly, and wiped her mouth with the wet handkerchief that Chunxi handed to her.

After dinner, Tao Chenghui did not stay long. He found an excuse and left Xiyun Pavilion.

On the way back, Ding Xiang asked in confusion: "My lady, His Highness didn't tell you to leave, why are you in such a hurry to leave?"

Tao Chenghui smiled and explained: "You don't understand this, right? People should be content. I have been in the East Palace for so long, but this is the first time I have come into close contact with His Highness and the first time I have spoken to His Highness. If I stay here with a smug look on my face, I will really be disliked."

Ding Xiang suddenly realized, "My lord, you are right. I am the one who is stupid."

"However, the food in Xiyun Pavilion is really delicious." Although Tao Chenghui felt it was a pity, there were still many days to come and there would be plenty of opportunities to eat for free.

*

Shen Chuwei saw Tao Chenghui leave as soon as he said he would, and then looked at Xiao Jinyan who was sitting on the throne and drinking the new tea brewed by Chunxi, and had no intention of leaving.

No way, are you planning to stay overnight?

Xiao Jinyan put down the teacup in his hand and said calmly, "Shen Fengyi, please take a rest first. I will go back now."

Shen Chuwei's eyes lit up when she heard that. She smiled and bowed: "Farewell, Your Highness."

When Xiao Jinyan stood up and passed by Shen Chuwei, he lowered his eyes to look at her. Even with his head lowered, he could see the corners of her lips curled up. Was she so happy that he didn't stay overnight?

"Shen Fengyi."

Shen Chuwei: "Your Highness, I am here."

Xiao Jinyan: "Tomorrow you will attend the welcoming banquet for the eldest prince with me."

Shen Chuwei only heard about the welcoming banquet, which must have lots of delicious food, but she couldn't quite hear who was welcoming it.

"I'll remember that."

Xiao Jinyan stared at her for a while before walking out of Xiyun Pavilion.

When Chunxi saw His Highness leaving, she ran over and asked in confusion, "My lady, why didn't you keep His Highness?"

Shen Chuwei looked at Chunxi with the same puzzlement, "Why do you want to stay?"

Chunxi chuckled twice: "Oh, if His Highness stays, the young lady can sleep with him. Doesn't that mean we will have a young lady now?"

Shen Chu shook his head slightly, "Sleeping with His Highness is both troublesome and tiring. It's better to sleep alone, which is comfortable and free."

They slept together twice, and both times she was terrified, fearing that Xiao Jinyan's bestiality would unleash upon her.

She can't hit anyone unless she wants to die.

As for salted fish, do whatever makes you feel comfortable.

Chunxi thought of the erotic scene as soon as she heard it. She covered her face and said, "My lady, how can you say such words to me? I am so embarrassed."

Shen Chuwei looked at Chunxi's shy face and realized that she had misunderstood the meaning of her words and thought of them in a sexual way.

She was too lazy to explain that if a man and a woman slept in the same bed, they couldn't wash themselves clean even if they jumped into the Yellow River.
