Chapter 86 Little Squirrel
When Xiao Xixi ran out again, she found that Concubine Bai and Liu Xu were gone.
She thought it was a good thing that she left, so she wouldn't have to give an extra portion of the roast duck to Concubine Bai.
Xiao Xixi said happily: "Baoqin, I just checked, the roast duck is ready, can we eat it now?"
"Please wait a moment. I will go and prepare it."
Baoqin went to the small kitchen to busy herself.
Soon she brought out the sliced roast duck. In addition to the roast duck, there were also many side dishes, sauces and pizza.
This was what Xiao Xixi specifically requested. She first picked up a small pancake, put a piece of roast duck meat on it, then put some side dishes on it, applied sauce on it, and finally rolled up the pancake.
She opened her mouth and was about to eat when she caught a glimpse of the prince sitting across the table, staring at her quietly.
Xiao Xixi could only shut her mouth and reluctantly handed over the freshly wrapped duck roll.
"Your Highness, would you like to try it?"
Luo Qinghan reached out and took the duck roll.
This was the first time he had eaten duck in such a strange way.
He tried a small bite.
Xiao Xixi asked expectantly, "Is it delicious?"
Luo Qinghan slowly finished eating the duck roll in his hand, and then said, "It's okay."
It seems like every time I ask him if it tastes good, he gives this answer.
For a moment, Xiao Xixi couldn't tell whether he liked to eat it or not.
She asked tentatively, "Do you want more?"
Luo Qinghan nodded.
Xiao Xixi resigned herself to her fate and continued to roll the duck meat, then handed it to him when she was done.
After rolling three duck rolls for Luo Qinghan, he finally said he didn't want any.
Xiao Xixi happily picked up the chopsticks and rolled herself an extra-large duck roll.
She held the duck roll in both hands, opened her mouth wide, and took a big bite.
His mouth was filled with food, and his cheeks bulged.
Her chubby cheeks moved as she chewed.
Luo Qinghan looked at her and couldn't help but think of the squirrel he raised when he was a child.
He waved his hand to dismiss the palace maids and eunuchs who were serving him.
They were the only two left in the room.
Luo Qinghan said nonchalantly.
"I once had a squirrel, and you look a lot like it."
Equally greedy, equally cute.
Xiao Xixi asked while eating, her voice a little unclear: "Your Highness also keeps pets."
Luo Qinghan never told anyone about these things, not because he didn't want to, but because he couldn't find anyone to talk to.
At this moment, he was in a relaxed mood and thought it would be okay to talk about it, so he spoke.
"That happened when I was six years old. I found a squirrel in the imperial garden. I don't know how it got into the palace. It was injured. I was soft-hearted and took it home to raise."
At that time, Luo Qinghan was still young and unable to live independently, so he lived with Queen Qin in the Pepper Palace.
Luo Qinghan said slowly, "My mother doesn't like small animals. I was afraid that she would find the little squirrel, so I hid it in my room. I usually have to go to the Imperial College for classes and can't stay in the room all the time, so I asked Chang Xi to help keep an eye on it and make sure it doesn't run out and get discovered."
Xiao Xixi swallowed the food in her mouth and asked curiously, "Then what?"
"One day I came back from the Imperial College and was told that the little squirrel was dead. My mother had someone throw it to death, and she punished me for it."
Xiao Xixi paused while eating.
She asked cautiously, "Were you beaten?"
Luo Qinghan: "No, my mother never beat me. She just made me kneel in the yard for a whole night."
Xiao Xixi was stunned.
Is it so cruel?!
Big Fruit: Xixi, please help me ask for votes from the readers!
Xiao Xixi: Zzzzzzzzz……
