Chapter 2395: Chapter 2395: Turned Into a Glutton
The Elder’s identity is not mentioned for now, but his martial arts are definitely impressive, and Long Rui is quite sure of this.
Long Rui: "Never mind him, dear wife. You haven’t had breakfast, out so early. You must be starving, right?"
It’s quite late now; it seems it has already passed noon.
In the underground palace, there were many hazards. Xuexue had forgotten she hadn’t had breakfast. Now, when Long Rui mentioned it, she finally felt her hunger, but she hid it to avoid worrying him, saying, "It’s alright, I’m not hungry."
Just as she said it, her stomach seemed to rebel against her words, immediately starting to growl loudly.
Long Rui couldn’t help but laugh; he reached out and tapped her nose, saying, "You’re such a little fool. Hungry is hungry, why say you’re not!"
Oh dear, her stomach was really unruly. Xuexue blushed and covered her stomach with her hands.
Seeing her embarrassment, Long Rui stopped laughing, grabbed her little hand, and said, "Come, let’s go eat."
Drunken Sky Building.
Seeing the Prince and Princess Consort coming, the shopkeeper was very attentive and personally came forward to serve them.
"Prince, Princess Consort, the meal is ready. Please." Behind the shopkeeper were seven or eight waiters with trays, gradually serving the dishes, filling the large table to the brim; some dishes were even stacked.
This enthusiasm was overwhelming compared to Xuexue’s previous visit, scarcely worth mentioning.
Due to this Shichen, the restaurant wasn’t crowded, so they didn’t go to a private room, instead choosing to dine in the hall.
"Dear wife, have some bear paw." Long Rui placed a piece of bear paw in Xuexue’s bowl; this dish is quite rare and not something commonly eaten, relying on hunters capturing prey.
Moreover, bears are fierce animals that hunters rarely dare to hunt, making them even more precious.
"Hmm, thank you, Prince." Xuexue smiled gently, lowered her head, and elegantly took a bite. After a while, she looked up and saw Long Rui watching her intently, not moving his chopsticks.
"Prince, you should eat too, don’t just keep watching me." Saying this, Xuexue also placed some dishes into his bowl with her chopsticks.
"Dear wife, you’re so good to me."
Even though Long Rui wore a mask, his expression couldn’t be seen, yet his voice was filled with laughter, his mood was very pleasant.
Standing nearby, Long Yi pouted. As long as the Princess Consort was slightly kind to the Prince, he could be happy all day, really losing face as a man.
At this moment, at the restaurant entrance, a group of people walked in.
Leading the group was a tall man with rugged features and dark skin, wearing a Purple Gold Crown with Jewels for Tying Hair, with a Gold forehead band with two dragons striving for a pearl across his brow, dressed in a Red Arrow Sleeve with Two-Toned Gold and Hundreds of Butterflies, tied with a belt adorned with multicolored flowers and long tassel palace ribbons, a stone blue flowered Japanese-forged eight-clustered tasseled robe, and blue satin court boots. As he walked, his steps were firm and resolute.
"Shopkeeper, shopkeeper, quickly come and serve the Third Prince."
A servant-like figure came out from the crowd, shouting shrilly towards the hall.
It’s said that due to the Third Prince’s frail health since childhood, The Emperor sent him to Shaolin Temple to train in martial arts. Now, he has unexpectedly returned.
Long Rui didn’t even frown, and continued eating. Xuexue was about to turn her head to look, but Long Rui stopped her and added more dishes to her bowl, saying, "Dear wife, eat."
This guy sees her as a food bucket.
However, given the time spent in the underground palace, she indeed felt hungry. Xuexue buried her head in her meal; since the Prince doesn’t pay attention to the Third Prince, she has no need to curry favor with him either.
