“If you’ve been pretending to be a saint for too long, sometimes you need to show your true colors, or you’ll forget your nature.” Su Yingxue licked her lips. “Zhilan, go and have the kitchen prepare a few dishes.”

Su Yingxue placed her hand on her stomach. Although she had succeeded in making Liu Shulan and her daughter feel disgusted with the lavish spread on the table, she couldn’t neglect her stomach!

Zhilan exclaimed and hurried to the kitchen.

A figure in white descended from the sky, and Chu Yihan’s composed voice resonated, “In my mansion, I’ve recently hired a few new chefs. Honorable Miss Su, would you be interested in indulging them?”

“Your Highness?”

Su Yingxue’s eyes sparkled. “You…”

She was about to ask why Chu Yihan was here and why he moved around the Marquis’s Manor with such agility. However, given his identity and how he had snatched her jade pendant during their first meeting, she decided not to press for answers.

Her stomach rumbled. Chu Yihan’s timing was impeccable.

She approached Chu Yihan with the demeanor of an eager cat, playfully waving her hand. “Thank you for the gracious invitation, Your Highness!”

Zhilan watched as Chu Yihan carried Su Yingxue, and together, they flew out of the courtyard like a pair of rainbows. She stood with her mouth agape, exclaiming, “Your Highness treats Miss so well!”

He even noticed when Miss hadn’t eaten!

Inside the Ninth Prince’s Mansion, Su Yingxue had barely landed in the garden when she caught the aroma of roasted meat.

After touching the ground, she hurried to a pavilion and found two chefs in white robes and hats, busily turning a skewer with a pole. Her eyes gleamed with excitement. “Your Highness, your chefs know how to roast meat!”

And it smelled so tantalizing!

“It’s a whole roasted lamb,” Mo Qi said softly.

Mo Qi had been tasked with finding these chefs for Your Highness. He wasn’t sure where Your Highness had discovered them, but they were aiming to please a girl by treating her to delicious food and drink. Upon Your Highness’s order, he had located the skilled chefs.

Sending out the Shadow Guards and urging the horses at top speed, they tracked down these chefs in North Coast City. Although their dishes appeared rustic, the taste was exquisite!

Even the palace’s royal chefs might not be able to match their flavor.

Su Yingxue inhaled the tempting aroma in the air and, overwhelmed, her stomach grumbled. She was so touched that she almost started crying like a kitten deprived of its milk. “Your Highness, it smells so good! This lamb… it looks delicious!”

A colossal oven held an entire lamb, and the sizzling meat drippings created a delightful hissing sound. Some of the drippings fell into the oven, landing on the charcoal and sparking to life, making the culinary experience even more tantalizing!

Su Yingxue hadn’t been this hungry earlier, but standing in front of the roast lamb, her stomach couldn’t help but growl.

Chu Yihan placed his hand on her abdomen and turned to Mo Qi, urging him to hasten. “She’s hungry. Let’s move more quickly!”

Mo Qi conferred with the two chefs, and the chefs commenced the meat-cutting process.

They handed a knife to Chu Yihan and gestured for him to cut the first slice, a sign of respect for his noble status and the customary etiquette for starting the feast of a whole roasted lamb.

Chu Yihan passed the knife to Su Yingxue. “You can do it. Cut wherever you’d like to start.”

“Your Highness, this is the prince’s mansion. The lamb was prepared by you, so you should have the honor of beginning the feast,” Mo Qi kindly reminded.

Chu Yihan leaned close to Su Yingxue, his warm breath brushing against her ear as he said, “She makes the decisions for me. She’s the most important.”

Su Yingxue’s hand holding the knife trembled, almost slipping into the fire.

She didn’t have a ringing in her ears. She heard Chu Yihan clearly stating that she was the most important person in his life..
