Chapter 60 Dual Identity (5)
"...I have nothing to say. I am just carrying out my mission. Young Master has promised me something. Shouldn't I interfere at this time?"
In the inner fear and struggle, Huan Ling's palms were sweating and he bit his lip while speaking. After listening to Huan Ling's words, Feng Qinghan just finished drinking the tea in the cup and put it back on the table as usual. The usual here may only refer to the action of putting it down...
"Phantom——"
"If you just want to talk about this, then I'd better take my leave first."
"Then try to step out of this room first."
Just when Huanling stood up and turned around, Feng Qinghan's words rang out, and Huanling subconsciously stopped, or rather stood there in a daze.
"Sir, are you doing this just for that woman?"
"It doesn't matter who it was for or why. What matters is that someone violated my principles."
As Feng Qinghan spoke, he picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea. However, Huanling felt as if a sword was on his neck, and his whole body trembled slightly...
"I...will not hinder you, sir."
"Very good, remember what you said."
"...Yes, Phantom, take your leave."
Filled with anger and unwillingness, Huan Ling disappeared into the dark room, leaving Fen Qinghan alone to continue drinking tea.
The next day, I was supposed to go to see Han Ji, but it was Han Ji who came to greet me first?
"Sister Han Ji——"
"I heard that you sent me a lot of supplements when I was feeling unwell yesterday, so I came to thank you when I woke up this morning feeling better."
"How can this be so embarrassing, I——"
Yin Yin was so surprised by Han Ji's arrival that she didn't know what to say.
"Well, to thank you, I specially prepared some nourishing meals. Speaking of which, Maiden-sister Wu isn't feeling well, so do you mind eating together?"
"Of course I don't mind."
Yinyin was so happy that she didn't have time to mind. It was just that it was so sudden that she seemed a little flustered. Han Ji gestured for the maids to put the food on the table. In a short while, the table was filled with delicious food. After the food was placed, the maids left...
"Please come, Prince and Master Feng, if you don't mind, how about Xiuying coming too?"
"Ah, I won't need it--"
Xiuying seemed a little overwhelmed by Han Ji's sudden request and hurriedly declined. Zhou Yan came with Han Ji, and Feng Qinghan came before them. If Zhou Yan hadn't said anything, it would be normal for Feng Qinghan, as a diner, to dine at the same table with her. Xiuying was Yin Yin's maid, and as a servant, how could she sit at the same table with her master? Although she could always be with Yin Yin in private, she should always be careful in this kind of occasion and other public occasions.
"It doesn't matter. We are all family anyway, and you haven't had breakfast yet, right?"
"How can this be possible? How can a person of my humble status sit at the same table with the prince and princess? Please don't mind me. I will go eat by myself later."
"Hey, sister , you should tell me."
Xiuying repeatedly declined, and Han Ji was not the kind of person who would be so persistent and indecisive , so she had to let Yinyin, the master, speak.
"…Although it's a little bit uncomfortable, but since Sister Han Ji said so, Xiuying, you should come with us."
"But--"
" No buts. Princess and Yinyin have said so, so just do as they say."
It seems that Yinyin's words did not make Xiuying nod. Zhou Yan, who had already taken his seat, suddenly spoke. As soon as he spoke, he seemed to attract special attention. Not only that, Zhou Yan's words were simply an irresistible order to Xiuying...
"Yes, then thank you, Prince and Princess--"
Unconsciously feeling Zhou Yan's invisible pressure, Xiuying had no choice but to give in. "Then please take a seat."
"yes."
Although Xiuying was a maid, she was not actually a real maid, so she would not appear panicked like the real maids. After helping Yinyin to her seat, Xiuying sat on her left, with Han Ji on her right, Zhou Yan on her right, and Feng Qinghan on Xiuying's left.
"Let's get started. It's easy to get cold in this weather."
Han Ji said, Zhou Yan was the first person to start eating without any hesitation. It should be said that there was no need to be polite. Yin Yin and others also started eating. Everyone had a bowl of white porridge in front of them. Of course, there were additives in the white porridge...
"Oh, it tastes really good. Is it longan and lily porridge?"
"Well, sister, you really know it. Ah, I almost forgot that your cooking skills are also very good. It's great that it suits your taste."
Yin Yin blurted out somehow, as if she had always known everything about diet. As for the reason, of course she herself didn't know. She knew about diet because she liked to cook by herself.
"Huh? Can I cook meals, too?"
After hearing Han Ji's words, Yin Yin was surprised. She had always eaten food prepared by others, and she thought that it was because she was a noble that she would know something about meals. She didn't expect that she could actually cook it?
"Yes, I remember that the five princesses of the world gathered together to celebrate the Zhou Kingdom's festival. After that, when we went on an outing together, my sister showed off her cooking skills. I still remember how delicious the dishes she made were."
Just hearing Han Ji talking about the past, Yin Yin began to look worried.
"princess!"
Noticing Yin Yin's strange behavior, Zhou Yan immediately called out to Han Ji, obviously asking her to stop talking.
