Chapter 390
Chen Ming shook his head, not waiting for Bei Yau who looked clumsy to approach him, he approached the chair the maid had prepared for him to sit down.
“Weirdo”
Bei Yau approached quickly. Still being clumsy at his strange behaviour earlier, it was such a shame, how could he think so dirty of his Prince, what a lecherous Guard Bei!
Immediately the bodyguard who was still clumsy approached and sat beside Chen Ming.
“Hehehe Prince”
“Are you really hungry to act weird like that?”
Chen Ming asked a little peeved, Bei Yau’s attitude was always strange and annoyed him, for some reason he hated him so much but on the other hand, he often missed him.
“Hehe please forgive me, my Prince, it seems like it is” a bodyguard is so great and skilled in martial arts, unable to control his heartbeat which is very fast beyond his own flying sword. He even often broke out in cold sweat when he was near the Prince, this really worried him.
.....
“What a strange person” Chen Ming grumbled.
The two of them sat waiting for the Crown Prince and Bai Ying who he said would come down and join them for breakfast.
Chen Ming turned to one of the little maids serving him. The small hunchbacked maid seemed to hide her face which made Chen Ming curious and often glanced at her. After that, the little maid raised her face immediately after placing a large bowl of ginseng chicken marinade on the table. Chen Ming just understood why the maid kept her face averted.
Chen Ming swallowed his saliva whole unconsciously.
The right side of the young girl’s face, whose age probably didn’t differ much from his, had feather-like burn marks covering almost half of her face. From her forehead to the chin. Although no part of his right side was burned, only her face.
An old maid who was the head of the kitchen pulled the girl’s hand back slightly as if to hide her ugly face so as not to disturb the appetite of the Li family’s honourable guests.
The senior servant smiled at Chen Ming as he placed another side dish on the table.
“Please enjoy the breakfast Young Master’s, the dish is complete.”
Chen Ming nodded. He waved his hand asking the servants to retreat to their positions while they would enjoy their meal in peace. Chen Ming didn’t find the bad-looking maid again among the other maids, maybe she was deliberately sent away because of her face that she thought would disturb everyone.
Chen Ming wouldn’t think too much about it. What’s on his mind now, were two great guests who took a long time to come down from their room while all the delicious food was calling his name for him to enjoy immediately.
“That fellow, what else are they doing inside, it’s been too long” Chen Ming grumbled.
Chen Ming was just about to call them when he saw two people appear at the end of the stairs.
That’s right, who else but the Crown Prince and Bai Ying.
“Be careful Ying” Luo Xiang took Bai Ying’s hand, helping him down the stairs.
His face shone with a smile like a sun that shone very brightly that day.
The Crown Prince was dressed in a beautiful white dress with gold trim at the waist, with the ends of the ribbon hanging down to the bottom of his clothes that floated lightly with his steps. Her face was radiant, with a golden crown shaped like a string of golden yellow plum leaves above her bun.
His hand gently held Bai Ying, who that afternoon was wearing a beautiful dress with dominant red and light yellow of he’s. A little accessory hanger on the hem hangs at the very bottom, which makes a sweet sound when it walks.
His movements were so gentle that the Crown Prince even held him very carefully as if Bai Ying was a thin piece of ceramic that could break easily. However, it was only because the Crown Prince was worrying too much about him.
Chen Ming and Bei Yau who were watching from below subconsciously looked with their mouths wide open, like they were watching a romantic drama show in the palace, both of them looked like the main characters.
But Chen Ming shook his head, it was just his imagination because Bai Ying’s shrill voice woke him from his daydream.
“Your Majesty, I’m fine, I can walk by myself.”
Luo Xiang insisted on holding Bai Ying’s hand to help him down.
“No, you just woke up from a long sleep, you must not be used to it, just hold on to me tight, don’t argue.”
“But Your Majesty, if like this, we are so close together, we might fall.”
Luo Xiang was excited and wanted to pinch the talkative Bai Ying’s cheeks, the boy spoiled the romantic atmosphere earlier with his loud voice, but he restrained himself, with a forced smile.
“Hehehe, my sweet boy, come on, let’s hold me and let’s go downstairs, you said you’re so hungry.”
As he walked down the stairs, Bai Ying continued to grumble.
How could he not, the Crown Prince walked so close to him that he almost stepped on his clothes, instead of helping, he could send them tumbling down the stairs.
Luckily, they arrived safely downstairs. The Crown Prince pulled out a chair for Bai Ying to sit down and he took his seat.
As he sat down, Chen Ming and Bei Yau’s eyes were still on him and Bai Ying.
Luo Xiang glared at Bei Yau who immediately averted his gaze.
The young guard was so stunned that he forgot to pay his respects to the Crown Prince.
“Eh g-greeting Your Majesty”
“Ahem, let’s eat”
The Crown Prince was still serving Bai Ying’s meal, handing him some of Bai Ying’s favourite vegetables and side dishes which soon filled his bowl.
“Eat more Ying Ying”
“Your Majesty too,” said Bai Ying who smiled so wide that his two eyes disappeared, at that time Luo Xiang couldn’t help himself and finally pinched Bai Ying’s cheek in exasperation.
“Ich this child”
“Ach Your Majesty, don’t pinch my cheeks again”
“Why are you so cute, okay let’s eat, what else do you want?”
Bai Ying pointed towards Chen Ming in front of him, where there was a large bowl of fried eel that was so eye-catching.
“This?”
Bai Ying nodded.
“Yeah, looks delicious.”
Chen Ming and Bei Yau still didn’t move in their positions. Actually, Chen Ming was already holding his chopsticks, but due to the Crown Prince suddenly becoming a servant to his younger brother, he was unable to move until they were done.
The two of lovey-dovey thought, in this world, there are only the two of them, is there no one else there besides them?
“Ahem” Chen Ming purposely voiced out.
That strange Crown Prince had never served anyone in his life, or, was that all they knew? If indeed in Luo Xiang’s world, only Hua Bai Ying could make him turn like this? Not like the Crown Prince that everyone used to know.
“Eat a lot of vegetable Ying, and rice too, look at your bones, all look very prominent, this child what have you been doing while I was not around?”
“Your Majesty, is there any further need to discuss that?”
“Of course, how did the palace pet rabbit get this thin? That’s absolutely unacceptable.”
“Your Majesty, I’m not a rabbit?”
“If not a rabbit then what? Oh yeah, I forgot, my Ying Ying is a giant hare.”
Bai Ying pursed his lips in annoyance at the Crown Prince’s taunt.
“Your Highness”
The Crown Prince lowered his head to look at Bai Ying who was eating like a baby rabbit, leaving a little crumb on the edge of his lips, he was so adorable. Seeing Luo Xiang who was watching him at a very close distance, Bai Ying stopped his mouth from moving. His pair of big round eyes looked at the Crown Prince innocently.
“Your Highness, let’s eat, why look at Ying like that?”
Unexpectedly for Bai Ying, Luo Xiang tilted his head and took the rice crumb on the edge of Bai Ying’s lips, with his lips, he kissed it in front of everyone.
Bai Ying’s eyes went wide. He pushed the Crown Prince’s chest away from him.
“Your Majesty, there are a lot of people here” he whispered, his cheeks already red with embarrassment.
Even though Chen Ming and Bei Yau let alone the servants pretended not to see the two.
Luo Xiang glanced at the surroundings.
“Who? Where are the people? There’s no one else here.”
“This majesty”
Chen Ming took a deep breath, sure enough, this world only belongs to the two lovebirds in front of them, not even seeing him and Bei Yau in front of them. Their love was too clear, Chen Ming seemed to be able to see beautiful flowers blooming on the heads of the two, he really couldn’t deny it.
“Hmm”
