Chapter 31 - Meals Together

OuYang ShaoChen swiftly caught the pillow and placed it aside. He shot a glance at Murong Xue's direction and promptly left the room.

She followed his stare and realized that she was looking at her chest. Admittedly, she was still a little bit immature but she was just 14 years old and had plenty of room for improvement!

Just like the body she had in the modern times, after she became 17 or 18, people had admired her for it!

She folded back the bed covers and got out of bed. Behind the folding screen, she then wore her undergarments, dress robe and prepared herself to look presentable. Only after then did she emerge from the room.

Outside the room, there was an oak table amidst in which dishes, pastries, spring rolls and porridge were placed upon. The aroma of the enticing food was enough to send anyone drooling.

OuYang ShaoChen was standing by the washing basin cleaning his hands. The crystal clear hot spring water passed through his hands, uncontaminated. Seeing that Murong Xue had appeared, he took up a wet cloth and wiped the water beads from his hands.

"It's getting late, let's eat," he said dryly.

Murong Xue frowned. At first, it was to sleep together on the bed and now, eating together at the same table? This sounds more like a husband and wife thing to do............... wait, why did she think of it that way?

"Much thanks, OuYang your highness, but I'm not famished right now and returning to the Zhen country palace to feast then, wouldn't be too late either,"

An arm stretched and gripped her shoulder; it was as if the fingers on it were made out of jade itself. OuYang ShaoChen then directed her to the oak table.

"Yesterday, you were suffering from Cold poison and was tossing and turning the whole day. For 7 or 8 hours, you did not eat anything and even if you aren't hungry, you should at least eat a bit. Or else your body will become weaker!"

MuRong Xue's beautiful eyes glistened and squinted. Silently, she tried to escape from her constraints.

However, with just the slightest touch of OuYang ShaoChen finger which contained immeasurable power, MuRong Xue wasn't able to move! Her powers couldn't be exerted, not even in the slightest bit.

She knew she couldn't stand a chance against OuYang ShaoChen immense power and stopped struggling. She lifted her head to glare at him.

OuYang ShaoChen ignored her glare. Seeing that she had calmed in some measure, he released his touch and gracefully sat beside her. He then scooped some rice porridge, daintily placed some vegetables on top and placed a few pieces of plum cakes in the small dish in front of her.

MuRong Xue gazed at the fragrant plum cakes, shocked.

"How did you know I like plum cakes?"

"Try guessing," OuYang ShaoChen replied, his jet-black diamond eyes gleaming with a hint of humor.

MuRong Xue glared at him again.

She thought, Fine. Not like I'm interested anyway.

MuRong Xue picked up a plum cake and shoved it in her mouth. The fragrance and the softness of the cake filled her mouth.
