In the pavilion in the garden.
Enjoy the flowers, drink tea, and savor the snacks.
Shi Xi doesn't have the habit of drinking tea, and the Western-style pastries she makes are extremely sweet.
Although she was very hungry, she couldn't eat anything and could only smile and talk.
The Queen is very knowledgeable and has a wide range of interests. She talked about everything under the sun, including current financial topics, and had her own unique insights.
From her conversation with Ryan, Shi Xi also discerned that the royal family was involved in some business activities.
When the topic turned to the royal family's hotel business, the Queen asked Shi Xi a few questions.
Shi Xi had never been a boss, but the Shi family owned a hotel business, so she answered.
When asked about Bernita, she stammered and looked at Ryan with pleading eyes.
Ryan came to the rescue, saying, "Bernita is still in school, so it's normal that she can't answer."
“Miss Shi is two years younger than Bernita,” Elizabeth said bluntly.
Shi Xi forced a smile.
Is she being used as a target?
“You have a real talent for hotel management.” After testing Shi Xi, Elizabeth said, “The palace will be hosting a charity gala in three days. I can’t manage it all by myself, so you will be my assistant.”
"Huh?" Shi Xi was a little surprised. "Isn't that a bit inappropriate? I'm not familiar with the situation in the palace."
“The people in the palace will take care of everything; you just need to make the decision,” Elizabeth said firmly. “I’m tired; I’ll go back and rest first.”
Shi Xi: ?!
Hello!
I'm here to be a princess!
I'm not here to work for you!
Wait, I'm not here to be a princess!
Once the Queen left, Bernita finally breathed a sigh of relief and completely relaxed.
She glanced at Rui'an, then at Shi Xi, and said, "I just remembered I have something to attend to, so I won't bother you any longer."
After saying that, Bernita gave Shi Xi another deep look.
"What did the Queen mean by that?" After everyone had left, Shi Xi asked Ryan impatiently, "Why did you make me host some kind of charity gala?"
“I don’t know either.” Ryan’s face unusually fell. “That day was not only a charity gala, but also the Queen’s birthday. She organizes it herself every year. Why would she let you get involved?”
"Is there some kind of conspiracy?" Shi Xi didn't think she was universally loved, and asked, "If I do something wrong, will I be punished?"
"I don't know." Ryan suddenly stood up. "I remembered something, I'll be going now."
"Hey!" Shi Xi said, feeling annoyed as everyone left.
Who is it?
So what if you have legs?!
Shi Xi wondered if the Queen had just mentioned it casually?
But when she returned to her room, Shi Xi realized she was wrong.
A dozen or so people stood at Shi Xi's door, waiting for her to return.
"Your Highness, how many layers should the cake have for that day?"
"Your Highness, the flowers we ordered have been delayed. What should we do now?"
"Your Highness, there aren't enough items for the charity gala auction..."
With so much work to do, Shi Xi was still working on it in her study late into the night.
This is totally a waste of time and effort!
Shi Xi looked at the documents in front of her, feeling sleepy, and fell asleep immediately.
Shi Xi didn't wake up until a blanket was draped over her.
"Hmm?" The girl woke up groggily, rubbing her eyes. "Why are you here?"
Xie Yunzhou looked at the girl in front of him and asked, "The guard chief sent me to ask you whether we need to increase manpower for the charity gala or extend patrol hours?"
"Work again?" Shi Xi slumped back onto the table, closed her eyes, and waved her hand, saying, "Let him decide for himself."
"If you're tired, go back and rest," Xie Yunzhou said. "Don't catch a cold here."
Shi Xi, fighting off sleepiness, sat up and leaned back in her chair. "I want to go back to sleep too..."

Goodnight~
