At the gathering hall, everyone was sitting around a long table, waiting for the food. Yi Lei Fang was chatting with her family happily while treating Yi Mei like air. The only time Yi Lei Fang would talk to her is when Yi Mei would ask her a question or two, but Yi Lei Fang would give a short answer which always lead Yi Mei to feel angry and awkward.Yi Mei clenched her hands and forced a gentle smile. "Tang Jie, I heard that you cooked this morning. The servants have been talking about your food, saying that it smells very good. I hope it tastes as delicious as it smells."
Yi Lei Fang looked at Yi Mei and nonchalantly replied, "It's good," before she turned back to talk to Chief Yi Yang.
Yi Mei's hands tremble. She looked down at the floor as if she has been bullied. However, no one was paying attention to her since they were too occupied listening to Yi Lei Fang describing about the food she prepared.
"Oh! Fu Qin, I also made you a healthy chicken tofu soup! It helps replenish blood flow and it is good for the heart."
"Hahaha! Ah! I cannot wait to taste it! And what was that pig meat called again?"
"It is called sweet pork belly. Fu Qin, you cannot eat it since it is really fatty and sweet. So elder brother, second brother, and us will eat it for you. Don't worry, I also made other food as well!"
Then a strong aroma crept into the hall. Yi Cheng beamed and turn to the entrance of the gathering hall. "Speaking of food, here it comes!"
The servants entered fashionably walking in two straight lines, carrying plates of food and drink.
Once everything settled down, Yi Lei Fang opened her mouth to dismiss the servants but stopped before any words could come out as she saw the same young male servant running in the hall. Yi Lei Fang raised her eyebrows.
Chi Tao came up to Chief Yi Yang and whispered in his ear. Since the Yi siblings know martial arts, they can clearly hear what he was saying.
"Chief, His Highness, Guan Wangye is here. He is waiting at the receiving hall right now."
Chief Yi Yang waved his hand to indicate the servant dismissed. He glanced at the food on the table and sighed. Hoping whatever Guan Yu wants to talk to him about would be fast and easy so he can come back to eat the food that his had daughter made. Out of all the food she made in the past, the ones sitting in front of him are different and look more flavorful.
His face darkened as he kept thinking about the taste and aroma. He quickly shot up. "I will be back." He grumbled in annoyance when he walked out. "Stupid Highness, better not waste my time. I did not even have the chance to eat my food yet."
Madame Yu did not have time to wait around for her husband to come back. She picked up her chopsticks and said, "let's eat."
After hearing the okay-to-go from their mother, they happily grabbed their chopsticks and were about to dig in when they heard a roaring laughter from the entrance. It was Chief Yi Yang who just left and is now coming back along with Guan Yu.
"Hahaha! Wangye, if I had known that you had not eaten anything this morning, I would have invited you a lot earlier. Well, you are in luck. My precious daughter just cooked today, another recipe she came up with."
"If Chief Yi Yang did not mention about it a minute ago, I would have missed a chance to eat my future Wangfei's food."
"En, come over here and sit." He points to the head of the seat and order the servants who were standing by the side to add another plate and soup on the table.
But before Chief Yi Yang move towards his wife's side, Guan Yu politely reject his offer.
"Chief Yi Yang, you go ahead and have a seat on the main chair. Since this Benwang will soon be part of your family, it is by rights that you take this seat. This Benwang will sit down next to Fang'er."
Chief Yi Yang look at Guan Yu in the new light. At first he did not like how Guan Yu shamelessly confessed to his daughter yesterday. and that fact that the guy came over this early in the morning, taking his time away from the food that his had daughter made. Nonetheless, he came in time before the kids and his wife could even take a bite. He was happy that Guan Yu did not waste his time, but came along which he did not mind.
Not just that, he saw how Guan Yu eyes turn gentle when he see Yi Lei Fang. It is like she is the only person in his eyes. Although there were rumors about her and he had witnessed Yi Lei Fang engagement being called off, he still accepted her.
"Hahaha! Okay since you said that then call this old man father-in-law."
Guan Yu cup his hands and says, "father-in-law can call this benwang son-in-law then."
"Hahaha! Good! Good! Come on. Let's sit and eat."
When both of the men sat down, Yi Lei Fang glared at Guan Yu who then smirked back at her with a smug look.
Yi Lei Fang rolled her eyes. She turned to find Xi Ting behind her with her head down. Seeing that there was nothing else needed to be served, she waved at the maid.
"Ting'er, you guys take a rest and eat. I made sure to cook enough for everyone."
Xi Ting smile brightly and nod her head. "Thank you Young Miss!"
Xi Ting and the rest of the servants in the gathering hall were excited as they left
Yi Lei Fang turn back at the food once the servants left, she didn't care about etiquette and begin to dig in without waiting for the rest to start. Traditionally, it was supposed to be the head of the clan to take the first bite but in the Yi family they ignored that tradition.
Once everyone took their first bite, their eyes shone like stars. The Yi brothers immediately grabbed every single dish as fast as they could. When they were about to grab their sixth one, Chief Yi Yang smack their head causing them to choke.
"Eat slow or you will choke on your food."
Of course they would not have choked if their father would not have smack their head in the first place!
But what makes the Yi brother baffled is how fast Chief Yi Yang and Guan Yu where grabbing the food.
What happens to "eat slow or you will choke on your food!" Huh!
Madame Yu did not have to worry as her husband was also placing some food onto her plate, making sure she gets to eat every single dish that their daughter cook.
Guan Yu on the other hand piled up his bowl and feeds Yi Lei Fang and himself with the same chopsticks.
Yi Lei Fang reluctantly eat from his chopstick but since she saw how Yi Mei kept looking at Guan Yu like an abandoned wife, Yi Lei Fang has no choice but to cooperate. She even purposely put her lips at the end of the chopstick and skillfully used her tongue to go in between the stick and scoop up the food.
She was too busy glancing at Yi Mei's reaction and did not realize that she was also stirring up a certain someone's little brother that belongs to the person that is feeding her.
