Ye Jiaoyao needed to give this problem a serious thought. The birthday celebration of the old royal consort wasn't like any other ordinary birthday celebration. There were too many rules and customs involved and there should be no mistakes. She had never done anything quite like this before so she didn't just readily agree to it.

But this is a rare opportunity. If she organized this birthday celebration well, she would be famous. It would really help pave the path for her career in Jin Ling.

”Big Yaoyao, you must help me with this, you are the key to success,” Helian Jing said expectantly.

Ye Jiaoyao smiled. Little Jingjing was really nice. He was clearly the one doing her a favor. Normally, big chefs were invited to cook for serious celebrations like this. The power of the Helian Mansion was great enough that they could get any chef they want, yet, Little Jingjing was giving this opportunity to her. He was willing to believe in her and take this risk.

”Little Jingjing, this feast is very important. I've never organized a celebration of this caliber before, I don't know if I can do it,” Ye Jiaoyao told him honestly.

Helian Jing said, ”There's always a first time for everything, right? How do you know you can't do it if you don't try? This is also my first time handling something like this, and I'm very confident that we can succeed this together.

Ye Jiaoyao held back a laugh and said, ”Well, look at you, talking smartly. Okay, how about this? If you can get a copy of the celebration menu that big chefs usually put together, I'll take a look at what's in there before I decide.”

”That's a piece of cake. I'll get it for you right away,” Helian Jing said, smiling.

Helian Jing left Heavenly Residence and went to the Duke Yongan Mansion. He remembered that the grandmother of the mansion celebrated her 70th birthday last year. He knew that Zhao Qixuan would be able to help him.

However, Zhao Qixuan wasn't in the mansion. The servants told him that he was on duty. Helian Jing wrote down a note for them to pass to Zhao Qixuan.

Xia Chunyu proclaimed that he caught a cold so he retired to his home to rest. The news startled his mum and aunties and they ran all over the place calling doctors and cooking him healthy foods which annoyed him greatly.

In the afternoon, Song Qi reported that there was news in the Yang State.

Xia Chunyu closed the fan in his hand and sat upright. He looked at the maids and gave them a stern look. They left without a word.

”Speak.”

”A servant kicked out of the Ye family said that Wei Liujang was already with the second daughter of the Ye family when he went to visit them last year. She said she once caught the two of them in the garden at night. I know that she could just be saying this out of anger and thirst for revenge, but when there is smoke, there is fire...”

”Where is this person right now?” Xia Chunyu asked coldly.

Song Qi answered, ”I've already arranged for her to come to Jin Ling. She'll be here in a few days.”

”I will interrogate her personally,” Xia Chunyu said.

If it was just the second Ye daughter wanting to harm Yaoyao, he could deal with her easily. It was another thing if Wei Liujiang was involved. Xia Chunyu promised that that sorry ass excuse for a man would pay greatly along with his lover. Of course, there was also Mrs. Ye. He believed that she definitely knew about all this betrayal. There was no way that the second daughter could come up with 3000 silver pieces on her own to pay Hei Feng Gang for the abduction.

Song Qi was contemplating if he should tell the young master more.

Xia Chunyu saw Song Qi's confused look and said impatiently, ”If you have something to say, spit it out.”

”Young Master, this morning, Jing Young Royal Highness went to find Ms. Ye. It was said that the two of them are quite close,” Song Qi reported feebly.

Song Qi didn't know that Ye Jiayao was the person Jing Young Royal Highness was looking for.

Xia Chunyu sneered, jealousy coursing through his veins. He was calling her Big Yaoyao, how could they not be close?

Here was Helian Jing, permitted to stick like glue by her side, but when Xia Chunyu tried to get to her, he was kicked and almost lost his manhood.

Stinky girl! I'll let you be for a few days, but be ready when I finally come for you.

Ye Jiayao looked over the menu and sniffed.

She was looking at the Man Han's Long Life Feast. Man Han Feast was formed from the essence of the Han and Man ethnic group. It was the most famous Chinese feast. There were six parts to it, Meng Gu Feast, Yan Chen Feast, Long Life Feast, Qian Sou Feast, Nine White Feast, and Jie Ling Feast.

There were 196 types of hot and cold dishes, 124 types of dessert, and 320 soup types in total.

Her dad only made four feasts and it was all modified. It was a pity that she was in university at that time and she didn't get to see this big feast.

This conjugated the essence of thousands of years of Chinese cuisine. With that and her dedicated practice, she could become the next leader in the cuisine industry.

Ye Jiayao was confident. She was going to make good use of this opportunity to make a name for herself.

When she reached the master chef level and opened her own restaurant, earning big money wouldn't even matter that much. As long as she could buy a house beside Qing Huai River, she would be okay. In her free time, she would invite her friends to drink on the boat or go out for a holiday. She would be a free and single upper class. If Dao Bao and Er Bao could come with her, it would be even more perfect.

Ye Jiayao bit the pen, laughing dumbly. She was getting carried away, yes, but it was good to dream.

”Brother Yao, the manager wants to see you,” Xiao Lu called from outside.
