The Little Husband Who Became the Ghost-Faced King

Hearing what the Night King said, Xiji was very happy. He climbed up from the bed, hugged the Night King's waist, kissed him hard on the face, and praised him repeatedly: My lord, you are so nice!

The Night King looked at Xiji's brilliant eyes, his pupils slightly deep, without saying a word.

Because of Xiji's request, what was originally supposed to be a meeting between the two parties turned into a welcoming banquet.

Especially since the banquet is tomorrow, everyone in the mansion has been busy since the Night King spoke, vowing to make tomorrow's banquet a success and make the guests unforgettable. Fortunately, after Xiji came to the Night King's mansion, he always cooked, and was not stingy in teaching the dishes he knew to the chefs here. Now the chefs' skills in the mansion have not improved by leaps and bounds, but they have also improved.

Therefore, even though this banquet seemed a little hasty, it was still well organized.

The one who felt the most about this was Xiji, who was sitting on the main seat and could not interrupt. After all, he could not talk about his own affairs when the Night King and the others were talking about business. He could only talk after they finished talking about business. Now he could only listen to their conversation with his ears perked up, eat the dishes in front of him, and comment on the taste. When he ate a dish that suited his taste and was not bad, he would nod to express his appreciation.

Xiji's attitude was not only seen by the Night King who was talking absent-mindedly at the side, but also by the messengers who came from below.

Chapter 141 Borrowing Food

They came here to ask for help, so they had naturally inquired about the Night King's preferences before entering the door. From the pile of complicated information, they easily got a piece of news, that is, there is a boy who is very favored by the cruel Night King. Therefore, when they saw him today, even if they were amazed at the boy's beauty, they dared not look at him for a moment, so as not to offend the noble and make the Night King unhappy.

But they didn't dare to look at Xiji, which didn't mean Xiji wasn't interested in them. When he saw them for the first time, Xiji felt that these people were somewhat similar to the people in the frontier areas of his previous life, with high noses, curly hair, deep facial features, and typical foreign looks. Therefore, Xiji ate the food, listened to their chat, and looked at those people a few more times, as if he was eating them with his meal.

Finally, it was the Night King who couldn't help it first. After a few hypocritical greetings, he turned to look at Xiji and asked directly: What are you looking at?

When the Night King asked this question, Xiji was biting on half a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs and had not yet swallowed it. There was still deep red on the edge of his lips, and he looked very innocent.

Seeing this, the Night King stopped talking. After he swallowed the remaining half, he grabbed the towel from the maid standing by and wiped the corners of Xiji's mouth rudely and with disgust.

The people below looked at the scene in front of them and glanced at each other. It seemed that this guy was more favored than they imagined.

After Ye Wang wiped Xiji's mouth and saw that his lips had returned to their beautiful red color, he said with disdain: "Are you still a child? How come you get your mouth full of food when you eat?"

Xiji listened to the Night King's criticism, smiled foolishly, and did not refute.

The Night King looked at his slightly flattering smile, and the anger that had just risen suddenly subsided. After calming down, he still remembered the question he had just asked, and looked at him lightly and said: What were you looking at just now?
