Chapter 489: The Regent King Wants a Kiss 20
Su Yan had been waiting here until it was almost noon.
At the time of noon, eunuchs and maids carried meals as plentiful as flowing water to the study.
Su Yan bewildered
"Is he not coming out?"
Her voice filled with doubt.
Wei Wan spoke softly with her head lowered
"Miss, do not fret, this servant will go inquire for you."
Su Yan nodded her head.
Wei Wan approached the guards stationed at the study and whispered something to them.
Subsequently, the guard cast a glance toward Su Yan.
He then turned and walked into the study.
Shortly after, the guard came back out.
He exchanged a few words with Wei Wan.
And then, Wei Wan returned to Su Yan’s side.
She softly spoke
"Miss, today the Prince has important matters to discuss, and all senior ministers and military officials are kept here. I am afraid, he won’t be able to see you."
The reason she gave was very sound.
Any woman, after hearing such words, would surely understand.
How could dealings between men and women surpass the important affairs of the state?
However, Su Yan was not like other people.
Following Wei Wan’s words, the corners of Su Yan’s lips slightly pursed.
She pouted and gazed in the direction of the study.
Then, she silently finished the pastries in her hand.
Standing up, only then she turned to head back.
Wei Wan, following behind Su Yan, could sense that her mood was no longer as good as before.
But she did not understand the reason why.
Su Yan returned to her room.
Very quickly, Wei Wan served up the noon meal.
Coincidentally, the meal served today included all of Su Yan’s favorite dishes.
This finally brightened up her somewhat wilted spirits.
Yet she did not start eating immediately.
Instead, she commanded
"You all go out."
Wei Wan hesitated for a moment
"Miss, let Wei Wan stay and serve you."
Su Yan shook her head with determination
"No need."
In the end, Wei Wan said nothing further.
She bowed and then retreated from the room.
Once the door closed,
Su Yan’s eyes shone as she stared at the dishes, one hand holding a chicken leg, the other holding a soup spoon.
She began to eat all around the long table.
Having been by Yu Wenxu’s side for so long, being fed by him for so long,
She naturally understood the etiquette of human dining.
One should use chopsticks, chew slowly, and not make any noise.
However, she did not know how to use chopsticks.
So, she shooed them all away, by herself she could eat however she wished.
Xiao Hua saw her Host eating with joy.
She couldn’t help but flatter
"Host is so clever, knowing to close the door and enjoy her meal alone."
Su Yan nodded,
"Hmm."
While nodding, she scooped up a mouthful of soup to drink.
An hour later.
Wei Wan entered the room.
The table with five dishes and one soup was cleaned out.
Not even a chicken bone in sight.
Wei Wan was surprised and hesitant,
"Miss, everything’s eaten??"
The chicken bones were gnawed as well?
Sitting on the chair, Su Yan lightly patted her stomach, having wanted to smooth down the soft fur there, only she remembered she was now in human form.
She earnestly nodded
"Yes."
Wei Wan couldn’t help but ask again,
"Miss, are you still hungry? How about some more?"
Su Yan’s eyes lit up,
"Can I?"
Every time she ate with Yu Wenxu, he held her back.
He would always touch her belly when she was about eight-tenths full, then command a halt, forbidding her to eat any more.
She hadn’t expected that, now in human form, she could actually eat a bit more.
Contemplating, her eyes glistening,
"I would like to have another roast goose, and a roast chicken, too."
