Hearing that there was something to eat, Yan Xiaoxi immediately bloomed into a smile. She held Nangong Lin's arm intimately and the three of them walked towards the side hall together.

"Since you're here, there's no need for the crown prince to be polite. If you need anything, just tell me." Saying that, Nangong Lin sat down. The vigor of a family head was apparent.

Yan Xiaoxi also sat beside Nangong Lin. She had long ignored the existence of the two beauties, and could only see the delicious food on the table.

Bei Baixi turned around and saw Yan Xiaoxi drooling. Previously, he had gotten along with her at the inn and understood how persistent she was about things.

"Alright, this prince will treat this as his home."

Yan Xiaoxi looked at the two of them impatiently. She thought to herself, why are you blabbering so much, are you still going to eat or not?

She gripped the chopsticks in her hand, ready to strike.

"Please." Nangong Lin was very polite and let his customers eat first.

Bei Baixi nodded and used his hand to pick up a piece of beef. However, just as he handed the meat into his bowl, another pair of chopsticks beat him to it.

Without asking, it was obvious that this person was Yan Xiaoxi who was waiting for him.

She was so hungry that she couldn't wait for the two people in front of her to start eating.

Seeing this, Nangong Lin frowned and said, "Woman, how can you be so rude?"

"But I'm hungry." Yan Xiaoxi also knew that the imperial family was very particular with their food. She had really endured it for a long time.

Who asked them to spout so much nonsense and eat whenever they wanted? Where did all these words come from!

Yan Xiaoxi glared with her clear eyes and pouted her red lips in grievance.

Seeing this, Nangong Lin was helpless as well. He knew Yan Xiaoxi was someone who could care less about anything. However, the bottom line was that they could not touch any delicacies. Otherwise, if she were to go crazy, the consequences would be unpredictable.

"Apologize to the Crown Prince." Even so, Nangong Lin felt that he had to protect the face of Nanshui Kingdom in front of outsiders.

Yan Xiaoxi, on the other hand, didn't mind. She held the food and said, "It's alright, don't mind it. Brother Bei is not an outsider."

Not an outsider? The four words stirred up ripples in the two men's hearts.

Hearing this, Nangong Lin's face turned even worse. His whole body was like an iceberg standing on the spot, emitting an icy air current from his body, which made people shudder in fear.

Bei Baixi's attitude was completely the same. The faint smile on his face deepened. He knew that he still had a certain position in Yan Xiaoxi's heart.

Yan Xiaoxi, who was so preoccupied with food, didn't notice the changes in the two men beside her.

"Brother Bei, eat, don't just stand there." As she spoke, Yan Xiaoxi placed the Crystal Shrimp Dumplings into Bei Baixi's bowl because she knew Bei Baixi liked eating these.

"This King wants it too." Nangong Lin said in dissatisfaction. This woman was giving food to Bei Baixi, but she didn't give it to him. She was truly ignoring him.

Yan Xiaoxi was stunned for a moment, then took the opportunity to place the Crystal Shrimp Dumplings into Nangong Lin's bowl. She originally thought that Nangong Lin also liked eating Crystal Shrimp Dumplings and was preparing to split the rest of the prawn dumplings between the two of them.

However, Nangong Lin was extremely cold when he saw the Crystal Shrimp Dumplings in the bowl. He said angrily, "I don't like to eat these."

"If you don't like it, then you want me to take it?" Yan Xiaoxi asked doubtfully.

"Give This King something I love to eat."

This time, it was really hard for Yan Xiaoxi. Every time she ate with Nangong Lin, she was too focused on other things and didn't notice what he usually ate.

He didn't know what kind of food Nangong Lin was eating, so he naturally didn't know. He didn't know what kind of food Nangong Lin was eating, and he didn't know what kind of food Nangong Lin was eating.

Yan Xiaoxi swept her gaze across all the food on the table, not knowing what to do.

Suddenly, her gaze stopped at the call chicken. Would this Nangong Lin like it?

She tried to pull a chicken leg out and put it in Nangong Lin's bowl. She carefully observed his reaction, but no expression could be seen from Nangong Lin's face.

This made Yan Xiaoxi even more worried. She was wondering if Nangong Lin liked to eat chicken legs or not.

Immediately, the next moment, Nangong Lin answered Yan Xiaoxi, "This is not what I like the most.

"Then tell me what do you like to eat, I'll give it to you." Things were not as simple as Yan Xiaoxi thought. Nangong Lin just wanted Yan Xiaoxi to give him his favorite food without knowing it.

This proved that Yan Xiaoxi understood him and cared about him.

"Continue." Nangong Lin said coldly.

Yan Xiaoxi glared at Nangong Lin and looked at the food on the table. She then placed a bowl of lotus root soup in front of Nangong Lin.

This time, she was very sure, because she noticed Nangong Lin's line of sight unintentionally.

"Brother Bei, you're going to eat. I'll definitely be full after eating so much food." Seeing Bei Baixi staring at her intently, Yan Xiaoxi thought Bei Baixi was being considerate to her and gave her the food on purpose for fear that she wouldn't be full.

Bei Baixi smiled lightly and took a bite of the beef in the bowl.

"You like this too, don't let me have it." Yan Xiaoxi picked up another piece of tofu and placed it in Bei Baixi's bowl.

"Thank you, Xi." Bei Baixi immediately ate the tofu that Yan Xiaoxi brought over. These were indeed the dishes that he normally ate.

Watching the two of them interact intimately, Nangong Lin said in a deep voice, "Woman, I don't like the Lotus Root Soup."

Yan Xiaoxi blushed with shame. She really didn't understand what Nangong Lin meant. He didn't like either of them, but he didn't even say what he liked to eat.

There were so many things here, how could she guess them?

However, people had no choice but to lower their heads under the eaves.

For the sake of food, Yan Xiaoxi chose to endure.

She continued to be patient and feed Nangong Lin. After hesitating for a long time, she finally chose the fish. Although she didn't know if Nangong Lin liked it, she decided to try it first.

The moment she put the fish into Nangong Lin's bowl, she immediately heard three cold words, "I don't like it."

Yan Xiaoxi looked at Nangong Lin with her mouth agape, her face full of grievance. She didn't understand why Nangong Lin was making things difficult for her.

"Linlin, just tell me what you like. Shall I give it to you?" Yan Xiaoxi had no choice but to act coquettishly towards Nangong Lin. She thought that Nangong Lin would compromise if she did that.

However, this time, Nangong Lin was determined to carry Yan Xiaoxi to the end. He only glanced at her and completely ignored her existence. It was as if he didn't hear what she said just now and received no response.

This time, Yan Xiaoxi was angry. She ignored Nangong Lin, who intentionally caused trouble, and continued to eat.

"Woman." Nangong Lin shouted.

Yan Xiaoxi ignored him and continued eating.

It was good enough for her to give Nangong Lin so much food in front of him, but Nangong Lin kept making things difficult for himself.

His master had said that there was no longer any need to endure.
