Chapter 120: Did Lady Gu Really Not Know That the Prince Was a Germaphobe?
Two hours later, in the dining room…
Rong Zhan looked at the empty table and asked with a cold face, “It’s time to eat, why aren’t the dishes served yet?”
Rong Han took the medicine three times a day, and each time he needed to take it after his meal. Moreover, the interval between each time he took the medicine could not be too different, or else the effect of the medicine would be affected.
Although the impact will not be very big, Rong Zhan was not willing to take the risk. He was always on time when allowing Rong Han to eat medicine. This was so the medicine would have the best effect.
Today, however, it was already time for dinner, but dinner had not yet been served.
On seeing Rong Zhan’s displeased expression, Liu Yi immediately lowered his head and carefully said, “Please forgive me, master. Today’s dinner is prepared by Lady Gu. I’m afraid Lady Gus a little busy, so she postponed it a little. I’ll go and urge her.”
The coldness in Rong Zhan’s eyes soon disappeared. He looked at Liu Yi and said, “No need to hurry her up. Wait a little longer.”
Liu Yi had already taken a step forward, but he did not know why his master suddenly did not need to hurry her up.
Did he not think that his master hated people in the manor who were not punctual the most? Why was he willing to wait for a little longer today?
Seeing Rong Zhan drinking tea indifferently, Liu Yi boldly speculated that His Royal Highness might not be hungry yet!
Fifteen minutes later, Gu Qingxue came over while holding Rong Han’s small hand.
“Father!” Rong Han threw herself into Rong Zhan’s arms with a smile and said happily, “I made dinner for you with the fairy. Her cooking is really delicious!”
“I’ve disturbed Your Royal Highness for a long time today, so I thought of making some dishes for Your Royal Highness to try. I hope Your Royal Highness can get used to it.” Gu Qingxue smiled very gently.
“We’ll talk about it after we’ve eaten. Serve the dishes.” Rong Zhan put down Rong Han. “Why aren’t you sitting down?”
“I want to eat with the fairy.” Rong Han pulled Gu Qingxue to sit down with him, letting her and Rong Zhan sit on his left and right respectively, enjoying the happiness of being surrounded by his two favorite people.
Gu Qingxue watched the maids serve the dishes one by one on the table, observing Rong Zhan’s reaction from the corner of her eyes.
She had cooked this meal to make Rong Zhan happy. After all, only when Rong Zhan was happy would she be able to bring up the matter of staying!
Rong Zhan took a look at the dishes on the table.
There were five dishes and one soup in total. The appearance, aroma, and taste of the dishes were all well-balanced, and the appearance of the dishes was very good.
Among the five dishes, four of them were the dishes that Rong Zhan liked to eat, which were dishes with lighter tastes such as cold salad, braised rice with chicken soup, steamed sea bass, and steamed meat with noodles. Judging from the appearance of the dishes, they were actually better than the dishes cooked by the chefs of the royal residence.
Gu Qingxue said with a smile, “Your Royal Highness, try this steamed meat with noodles first. I specially made it with pork collar butt meat. After steaming it for more than an hour, it melts in your mouth. Your Royal Highness, try it.”
Liu Yi was so scared that the hair on his back stood on end when he saw Gu Qingxue using her chopsticks to pick dishes for Rong Zhan.
Did this Lady Gu really not know that the prince was a neat freak, or was she deliberately seeking death? Other than the young crown prince, he would not touch anything that was touched by other people’s chopsticks.
Therefore, on normal days, the prince was also unwilling to eat with other people. Liu Yi felt that today, the prince was enduring for the sake of the young crown prince, he sat down to eat with Lady Gu.
This Lady Gu was already someone who was given special care by the prince, so why did she become even worse, using her chopsticks to pick up food for the prince?!
Seeing Rong Zhan staring at the piece of steamed meat without moving, Liu Yi could not bear to see Gu Qingxue getting embarrassed, so he wanted to remind her.
