Your Highness Yh Chapter 54 (2/2)

Eight treasure rice, osmanthus flower cake, sweet fermented sticky rice ball, angelica sinensis stew chicken….there were desserts and meat dishes!! Lin Shan’s eyes gleamed. She was drooling.

Seeing the food, Lin Shan instantly recalled how she hadn’t eaten lunch yet. Her stomach started to growl.

Du Hao is such a jerk! He tells me to come for a meal, yet he isn’t here. Does he want me to suffer from looking at this?

Lin Shan hesitated for a bit longer. But after awhile, Du Hao still hadn’t arrived. She was unable to resist the temptation in front of her, and she bravely took a few steps forward. Like a thief, she reached out and took the closest walnut cake to her.

The cake was rich in flavour and soft to eat. Lin Shan couldn’t help but silently praised: Delicious!

She quickly gobbled the rest of the walnut cake. Seeing how Du Hao still hadn’t arrived, she decided to head for b.u.t.ter cookie platter. She took a bite. It was sweet, yet non greasy; loose yet crispy. So heavenly!!

Lin Shan was enjoying herself so much that she didn’t realized a person had stopped behind her. His mouth was curved into a smile as he watched her eat without the least bit of apprehension.

Lin Shan was half way through her b.u.t.ter cookie when the person behind her spoke up: “Does it taste good?”

That one line frightened her so much that she gulped the whole thing in her mouth. She nearly choked.

*cough cough* After coughing vigorously, Lin Shan turned around and glared at Du Hao. She noticed that he had switched to a greenish black gown. His complexion was completely opposite of it was when he struggled in the waters.

Wow, he’s definitely the Crown Prince. Even his healing abilities are stronger than a regular citizen. Lin Shan thought to herself.

Du Hao opened his mouth: “Why aren’t you eating?”

Eat your sister! I was nearly frightened to death by you!

Lin Shan pointed at Du Hao angrily and gave him a warning stare.

This reaction did not bother Du Hao. Instead, he pulled out the chair next to her and said: “Come. Sit down and eat slowly.”

At this moment, Lin Shan’s mind was flas.h.i.+ng the words: Conspiracy!

Lin Shan was quite sure she knew Du Hao’s personality by now. Treating her to a meal? Helping her pull out a seat? Thanking her for saving his life? You’ve got to be kidding me.

She was very skeptical as she sat down. The moment she sat down, Du Hao sat on the right seat next to her. They were sitting very closely together.

There’s so much s.p.a.ce! Sit further! Lin Shan silently fumed. She leaned her b.u.t.tocks towards the left side. For the longest time, she didn’t lift her chopsticks from the table.

Du Hao didn’t force her. Instead, he picked up his own chopsticks and started eating on his own. The dishes were definitely one of the finest. The standard was even higher than the Imperial kitchen. Lin Shan could tell just from the aroma. Seeing Du Hao enjoying himself, she could barely restrain herself.

Umm.. so what if he has a conspiracy? I still need to be full in order to fight back! Thinking this, Lin Shan grabbed her chopsticks and started eating.

The moment Lin Shan started eating, Du Hao stopped. He poured himself a gla.s.s of wine and silently observed her. Although he was alright, he did nearly drown. He was mentally exhausted and his eyes looked far less intimidating from his usual self.

At this moment, Lin Shan’s mental strength increased substantially.

Since I have decided to eat, I don’t give a s.h.i.+t if you watch me! The more you watch, the more I shall eat! Plus, I’m not paying for the bill anyway!

This was definitely the first time Du Hao witnessed a woman eating so ridiculously. It was as if she did not give a d.a.m.n about the rest of the world. The rules in the Palace did not apply to her. The way she ate was truly a gruesome sight. Yet, it was very interesting. The way she focused on the fish was comparable to a kitten. It was rather cute.

It wasn’t just cuteness. Du Hao had experienced so much emotions from her. She stunned him. He missed her. He was disgusted by her. He was conflicted because of her. He wanted to push her away yet couldn’t stay away. Sometimes, she made him laugh his a.s.s off. But sometimes, she made him so angry that he was speechless. It was as if he had used all his emotions on just her alone.

The feeling was too difficult to describe. However, he was certain of one thing. He truly liked her; regardless if it was the past or now.
