Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel again, Yu Nian quickly acted as a peacemaker: "Let him eat, Han Chen, you should sit down too. I can't finish all these dishes by myself anyway."
Han Chen showed disapproval on his face, but before he could say no, he heard Ye Luo's lazy voice, "If you keep pushing it back and forth like this, the food will get cold."
Han Chenchen finally sat on the chair.
Yu Nian had been feeling a little hungry for a long time. She had grown up alone and had never learned any etiquette, so she didn't take Ye Luo's action of picking up the chopsticks first seriously.
Han Chen saw Yu Nian start to eat, and lowered his head and picked up his chopsticks silently.
Ye Luo only ate a few bites to satisfy his hunger and then stopped eating. He sat opposite Yu Nian, the farthest away, but he could still see her at a glance.
He saw that the woman was like a starving ghost, eating with chopsticks one after another, her cheeks bulging with stuff, and her eyes were so focused that she could only put down the food.
The man couldn't help but frown, picked up the chopsticks again to pick up the dish in the distance, and it tasted like chewing wax.
On the other hand, it was like hamsters who had been starving for three years came to buy goods.
Yu Nian's stomach was bulging from eating so much that he touched his belly and put down his chopsticks.
Han Chen also put down his chopsticks. As a guard, he didn't have much time to eat, and usually used nutrient solution instead. But today, he obviously ate too much.
After the servants cleared away the dishes on the table, Han Chen walked up to Yu Nian and bowed, "Your Highness, the bathroom has been arranged."
Yu Nian exclaimed "Ah", then remembered that the original owner had the habit of taking a shower after dinner.
She subconsciously touched her bulging belly and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go for a walk after dinner and come back later."
She stood up and walked outside, with Han Chen following behind her.
"Han Chen, you can go do some... uh, your own things. You don't have to follow me all the time." Yu Nian said tactfully. She didn't want to have someone following her all the time, as if she was being monitored.
"Yes, Your Highness. If Your Highness has any problem, please call me immediately." After Han Chen said this respectfully, he followed her request, turned around and left, disappearing from her sight.
The Crown Princess's palace is naturally the most luxurious one besides the Queen's palace.
Yu Nian walked around for a long time, but didn't even walk half a circle.
She held her waist and saw a pavilion in the garden not far ahead. She walked straight over and sat down on the armchair.
She quickly glanced around and saw that there was no one around except herself. She immediately breathed a sigh of relief and lay down on the armchair with her whole body relaxed.
"It turns out that I feel more comfortable when I'm alone!" Yu Nian stretched. She was aware of her introverted and unsociable personality.
Even when acting, it is difficult to change some small habits. For example, when she is nervous, she will pinch her fingertips to force herself to calm down.
When it was serious, she didn't even dare to look people in the eye. She was really worried that those people would find out that she was not the original owner. After all, there were significant differences in their personalities.
The bamboo forest swayed in the wind, and bursts of fragrance drifted in the air. The sound of the wind and the rustling of leaves composed a gentle lullaby, slowly soothing her tense mind.
In the exquisite little pavilion, a pretty girl was sleeping without any vigilance, blending into the sea of bamboo. The emerald green was dotted with a touch of crimson, like a painting of peaceful time.
A fluffy white cat walked with light cat steps, leisurely shaking its big tail like a feather duster, approaching the pavilion.
Seeing the sleeping girl, he jumped lightly onto the armchair, his emerald eyes slightly narrowed, as if he was looking at the girl.
The soft trembling of her thick eyelashes was like the fluttering wings of a butterfly, and her pale pink lips were slightly open, leaving the cat no doubt that she might be drooling in her sleep in a few minutes.
The white cat was instantly disgusted by its own strange fantasy, and impatience appeared in its emerald eyes.
He leaped from his armchair and with a puff—
"Oh!" Yu Nian was sleeping soundly when he suddenly dreamed that he was hit by a truck falling from the sky and woke up immediately.
The moist light-colored pupils met the emerald cat eyes.
The pain and fear in Yu Nian's eyes all turned into surprise.
"It's you! Little fat cat!" She hugged the white cat as if it were a treasure.
Meow! Who are you calling the little fat cat?
The disgust in the white cat's eyes remained unchanged. The woman held him very tightly. He meowed twice, trying to get out of this heavy embrace. However, after twisting his body twice, he found that the woman was still holding him tightly.
"hiss"
Yu Nian gasped and let go of her hand before she was almost bitten by the white cat.
"Why are you biting me, you little stinky cat? We just met in the afternoon and now you don't recognize me?" Yu Nian squatted down and kept a distance from him.
Even though she was almost bitten by the white cat just now, Yu Nian still felt that the white cat must like her, otherwise why would it run from the Queen's Palace to her palace?
The white cat walked forward a few steps, turned around and saw Yu Nian standing there again, so he sat down there and waited for the new owner to come over.
Yu Nian understood that he was leading her, so she stepped forward and asked, "Where are you taking me this time?"
Seeing that she was about to catch up, the white cat slowly stood up and continued forward.
"Are you someone's kitten?"
"Meow." No.
"Did you come here specifically for me?"
"Meow." Of course not!
"Where are you taking me? Are you hungry?" Yu Nian glanced at the primitive bag on the white cat's belly, but couldn't tell whether he was hungry or not.
"..." Noisy, cat ninja.
Yu Nian followed the white cat all the way and finally arrived in front of her own bedroom.
The white cat walked briskly and slipped in without waiting for the palace owner behind him.
Yu Nian was about to follow him when he was suddenly stopped.
"Your Highness, was there a cat here just now?" Han Chen trotted over from the corridor, stopped in front of Yu Nian, and asked in a steady breath.
Yu Nian glanced at the door in front of her, where the cat had long since disappeared. She asked tentatively in a low voice, staring at Han Chen's face, not missing a single expression, "What if I say I want to get a cat?"
Han Chen frowned tightly: "Your Highness, Her Majesty the Queen hates cats very much. Even cat-like beastmen are not allowed to enter the palace."
Yu Nian didn't remember the original text having such a setting, but she definitely couldn't betray her benefactor right now, so she said vaguely, "Of course I know, I just suddenly forgot."
"Han Chen, is the bathroom clean? I want to wash up in a while." She changed the subject.
"The bathroom is always ready for Your Highness. You can go in directly."
After Yu Nian successfully got rid of Han Chen, he immediately closed the doors and windows tightly, making sure that no one would find out, and then he whispered to the little white cat to come out.
A lazy cat meow came from the bathroom. Yu Nian pushed open the bathroom door and saw him squatting beside the bathtub licking his fur.
"Do you want to take a bath?" Yu Nian asked doubtfully. Aren't cats generally afraid of water? Why is this white cat running to the bathtub?
