Chapter 117: The Haughty Spoiled Princess (2) (1/2)

When Chu Lian saw that the maid was about to serve this world’s terrible sencha, she grimaced. She quickly stopped the maid and said, “Princess, this dessert doesn’t go along with sencha; it’ll spoil the taste.”

Hearing that, the princess lost her usual noble bearing as she rolled her eyes at Chu Lian. “Chu Liu, you’re just saying that because you don’t like to drink sencha, right?”

From the shine of Chu Lian’s eyes, she could see that she was just trying to make up an excuse.

The corner of Chu Lian’s mouth twitched speechlessly; this princess was way too clever.

Princess Duanjia’s personal maidservant laughed in response. “Third Young Madam, please be at ease. Our princess doesn’t like sencha either. This servant will be pouring honey water, not sencha.”

Chu Lian sheepishly chuckled. How awkward.

Princess Duanjia picked up a matcha-flavored cookie and asked curiously, “Chu Liu, can you tell me how you made this ‘cookie’?”

Inwardly, Princess Duanjia was thinking to herself, ‘Chu Liu must have come up with the name herself. It’s so weird, and so inelegant. Hmph, all she knows how to do is eat!’

Chu Lian was quite surprised. In the past few days, she had made quite a number of delicacies which exceeded the current standards of the Great Wu Dynasty. Although every dish she made had received tremendous praise, since the people here guarded their secret recipes even more preciously than their own lives, no one had ever straight out asked her for the recipe. That is, until she met Princess Duanjia!

Chu Lian didn’t quite know how to react for a moment. “Princess, do you really want to know?”

“Of course, do you think I’m kidding!?” Princess Duanjia rolled her eyes at her again.

Chu Lian’s eyes were wide open by now, and her thick eyelashes trembled as she blinked. “Since you’re that curious about how the cookies were made… Well, it’s hard to say. It could be hard for some and easy for others.”

“Then make it easy for me.”
