After ten minutes of waiting, the waitress finally comes back with a tray of food and a pot of green tea.
"Here you go, enjoy." She bows and leaves the room.
Meng Xiang stares at the food in front of her.
"...." Was this food worth a few gold?
There are only a few pieces!
She will never understand the world that rich people live in.
She picks up a fork and starts eating.
The moment she puts it in her mouth, she felt like she went to Heaven.
"What deliciousness!" She thought.
She shoves it all in her mouth within seconds.
"...."
She looks at the empty plate in front of her.
"??? How is it gone already!?! That was faster than me eating a slice of bread!" She cries in her heart.
Tian Yi watches her gobble down the plate of food in less than a few seconds.
When he sees her sad face after finishing it, he laughs. "Hahahaha, want more?"
She looks at him with a weird face.
She wants to eat more, yet she did not want to spend so much money on it!
"N–" She tried to reject but...
"You know Meng Xiang...." Tian Yi starts to talk.
"It's alright to be a bit greedy; you deserve it."
"Don't worry about money in front of me. If I can make someone like you happy with it, I won't hesitate to spend it all."
"You're no longer a beggar in the streets, but my personal servant." He looks at her with a gentle face.
"Although you might not understand what it means to be my personal servant at the moment... You will learn in the future."
"And when you do... Hehe" He giggles.
"So with that said, eat all you want. You've had it hard until now so it's alright to be a bit selfish..."
*Sniff*
Meng Xiang starts to cry again, but she did not want to ruin her new dress.
He looks at her and smiles.
"Come." He opens his arms wide open and nods at her.
*WAAAAAAAAAAH*
She cries and runs into his arms.
He hugs her, and she cries even more.
He pats her silky black hair, whispering in a soft voice, "That's right, let it all out."
* * * *
A few minutes later, Meng Xiang still had red eyes.
Tian Yi looks at her and then looks at his chest, filled with tears and snots.
"Hahaha... So this is what it feels like to be a mother..." He remembers when he would use to cry to his mother because his father would not let him out to play.
"Done? Hungry again?" He makes fun of her rumbling stomach.
"Un..." She nods with a red face.
"Good, let me clean this up." He waves his hand, and Pure Spirit Power covers them, washing away the dirty snots and tears.
