Upon hearing that there was food to eat, Yan Xiaoxi immediately bloomed into a smile. She intimately held onto Nangong Lin's arm as the three of them walked towards the side hall.

"Since you're here, there's no need for the crown prince to be polite. If you need anything, just tell me." After he finished saying that, Nangong Lin sat down on the seat of honor.

Yan Xiaoxi followed suit and sat beside Nangong Lin. Her eyes had long since ignored the two beauties' existences, and she could only see the delicacies placed on the table.

Bei Bai Xi turned his head and saw Yan Xiaoxi drooling. He had been together with her at the inn for a few days, so he understood Yan Xiaoxi's obsession with matters.

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

Yan Xiaoxi looked at the two of them impatiently, thinking to herself, why are you blabbering so much, are you still eating?

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

"Please." Nangong Lin was extremely polite and allowed the guests to eat first.

He nodded and picked up a piece of beef, but just as he was about to pass the meat into his bowl, another pair of chopsticks beat him to it.

Without asking, he already knew that this person was none other than the impatient Yan Xiaoxi.

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

Seeing that, Nangong Lin frowned and said, "Woman, how can you be so disrespectful?"

"But I'm hungry." Yan Xiaoxi also knew that the imperial clan was very particular about eating food. She had already endured this for a very 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 as she pouted, feeling wronged.

He clearly knew that Yan Xiaoxi was someone who would not care about anything. However, the bottom line was that she could not touch any delicacies. Else, if she were to go crazy, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Apologize to the Crown Prince." Even so, Nangong Lin felt that he still had to protect the face of the Southern Water Country in front of outsiders.

Yan Xiaoxi, on the other hand, disapproved. She took a mouthful of food and said, "It's alright. You don't need to mind. Brother Bei is not an outsider."

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

Upon hearing these words, Nangong Lin's face turned even more unsightly. His entire person was like an iceberg standing on the spot, and his entire body was emitting an ice-cold aura that would cause chills to run down one's spine.

On the other hand, Bei Bai Xi's attitude was completely the same. The faint smile on his face deepened as he knew that he still had a certain position in Yan Xiaoxi's heart.

Yan Xiaoxi was so focused on the food that she didn't even notice the changes in the two men beside her.

"Brother Bei, eat, don't just stand there." After saying that, Yan Xiaoxi placed the crystal shrimp dumpling into Bei Bai Xi's bowl because she knew Bei Bai Xi loved to eat this.

"This King wants it too." Nangong Lin said with dissatisfaction. This woman had given Bei Bai Xi food. If she didn't give him food, she had truly disregarded him.

Yan Xiaoxi was stunned for a moment before she picked up the crystal dumplings and placed them into Nangong Lin's bowl. She originally thought that Nangong Lin liked eating crystal dumplings as well and was planning to split the leftover ones among the two of them.

Who knew that Nangong Lin would be so cold when he saw the crystal shrimp dumplings in the bowl. He said with slight anger, "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 around, it was really hard for Yan Xiaoxi. Every time she ate with Nangong Lin, she would be too focused on it and she would not have the time to care about other things. Of course, she did not notice what he usually ate.

He did not know what sort of food Nangong Lin was eating, so he naturally did not know. He did not know what kind of food Nangong Lin was eating.

Yan Xiaoxi swept through all the food on the table, but she did not find any clues.

Suddenly, her gaze stopped at the Flower Chicken. Would this Nangong Lin like it?

She tried pulling a chicken leg out and placed it in Nangong Lin's bowl, carefully observing his reaction. However, after looking for a long time, she couldn't find any expression on Nangong Lin's face.

This made Yan Xiaoxi even more worried. She wondered, chicken drumsticks, did Nangong Lin like it or not?

Immediately, in 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." How could this be as simple as Yan Xiaoxi thought? Nangong Lin wanted Yan Xiaoxi to give him the food he liked without him knowing.

Didn't this mean that Yan Xiaoxi understood him and cared about him?

"Continue." Nangong Lin said coldly.

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

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

"Brother Bei, please eat. I'll definitely be full after eating so much food." Seeing how Bei Bai Xi had been staring at her, Yan Xiaoxi thought that Bei Bai Xi was being considerate towards her. She was afraid that she would not be full so she deliberately gave her food.

With a faint smile, he 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 into Bei Bai Xi's bowl.

"Thank you, Xi Er." Bei Bai 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 low voice, "Woman, I don't like the Lotus Root Soup myself."

Yan Xiaoxi blushed with shame. She truly did not understand what Nangong Lin meant. He did not like this nor did he like that, but he did not even mention what she 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 patiently feed Nangong Lin her food. After hesitating for a long time, she finally chose the fish. Although she didn't know whether Nangong Lin liked it or not, she decided to give it a try first.

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

Yan Xiaoxi looked at Nangong Lin with a dumbstruck expression. Her face was filled with grievance. She did not understand why Nangong Lin would make things difficult for her.

"Little Lin Lin, just tell me, what do you like? Shall I give it to you?" Yan Xiaoxi truly had no other choice. Thus, she decided to act like a spoiled child to Nangong Lin. She had originally thought that Nangong Lin would compromise if this happened.

Who knew that this time, Nangong Lin was determined to fight Yan Xiaoxi to the end. He only glanced at her, completely ignoring her existence. It was as if he hadn't heard her words just now, and he didn't receive any response.

This time around, Yan Xiaoxi was enraged. She no longer bothered with Nangong Lin who deliberately caused trouble for her and continued eating.

"Woman." Nangong Lin shouted.

Yan Xiaoxi ignored him and continued eating.

It was already good enough for her to put so many delicious dishes in front of Nangong Lin for him to eat. Yet, Nangong Lin kept making things difficult for himself.

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