He had no intention of getting into trouble with this person, but seeing the pitiful and innocent look in his eyes, he felt a little soft-hearted. And for some reason, he felt that look was familiar. Before Qin Zhao could figure out where this familiar feeling came from, he blurted out, "Eat if you want."
Jing Li looked at him puzzledly.
Qin Zhao cleared his throat and explained, "I don't like to eat such sweet things."
Jing Li still looked at him and didn't dare to speak.
Qin Zhao ordered expressionlessly, "Sit down and eat all this."
Jing Li didn't quite understand why the other party suddenly changed his attitude, but he was so hungry that he didn't bother to think too much.
He moved a small stool and sat down next to the desk, picked up the pastries and started eating them happily.
The Regent looked at him, who looked as if he had been hungry for days, and began to doubt the living conditions of his servants: "Don't they give you enough food?"
"I gave it to you." Jing Li swallowed a mouthful of dessert, feeling a little aggrieved when he mentioned it. "But it's not delicious."
Qin Zhao was silent for a moment, and his first reaction was that it was time to get a new chef in the mansion.
Jing Li felt something was wrong after he said this and asked in a low voice: "Did I say something wrong?"
"...No." Qin Zhao retracted his gaze and looked at the book in his hand again.
For some reason, he couldn't stand the look in the boy's eyes.
Soft, like some small animal.
It also looks like a little goblin that can confuse people's minds.
No one in the room spoke anymore. It was quiet for a while. Jing Li took small bites of the cake, not daring to make any sound. As he ate, he looked up at the man beside him.
The Prince Regent was truly handsome. He was handsome, very dashing, yet not at all feminine. His face was even more three-dimensional under the light, his long eyelashes casting a soft shadow across his features. From his brow to his jawline, his features were impeccably beautiful.
Jing Li was so mesmerized that his eyes were so direct that Qin Zhao could no longer ignore them.
"Am I good-looking?" Qin Zhao asked him.
"No, no..." Jing Li's ears felt strangely hot. He lowered his head and said awkwardly, "I just want to ask... don't you want to eat?"
Qin Zhao was startled.
Jing Li said, "You didn't have dinner last night, right? Now you're sharing your cakes with me. Aren't you hungry?"
This was what he had just heard from the servants while hiding near the kitchen.
The Regent was busy with government affairs and often skipped meals, and today was no exception. He hadn't eaten anything since noon, and the kitchen wouldn't have brought him snacks at night.
This is also the reason why Jing Li didn't steal the pastries just now.
If he really stole all the pastries, this person would go hungry at night.
Jing Li picked up a piece of cake, broke it in half, and handed one half to Qin Zhao: "I'll test it for poison, you can eat some. If you don't eat anything and only drink tea, your stomach will be uncomfortable."
He said, taking a bite of his half pastry.
The drug test was done very professionally.
Qin Zhao took the pastry handed to him by the young man and took a bite as if possessed by some unknown force.
The fragrance of osmanthus instantly fills the tip of the tongue.
The boy laughed.
Qin Zhao looked at his smile, and something in his heart moved slightly.
It's like a warm spring breeze blowing across the water, creating ripples.
Qin Zhao's gaze shifted slightly downward, accidentally landing on the boy's neck, and his gaze froze for a moment. The boy was sitting at the table, his neck backlit. From Qin Zhao's perspective, he could only make out something seemed to be on his neck.
