Outside Heavenly Residence, Xia Chunyu waited for Helian Xuan. If he went in by himself, there was a chance that Princess Liu Li would think that he was there to help Yaoyao and get even madder. He wanted their meeting to appear coincidental.

“Are you sure Young Royal Highness Jing will come?” Xia Chunyu asked Song Qi.

Song Qi answered, “Young Royal Highness looked worried when I told him the news, he will definitely come.”

A short while later, Helian Xuan arrived on the back of a horse.

Xia Chunyu came up to him immediately. “Why are you alone? Where is Little Jing?”

“What is wrong with you? He’s just a chef! Why would you risk offending the crown prince and the princess for him?” Helian Xuan was puzzled and exasperated.

Xia Chunyu smiled awkwardly. “If anything happens to him, I will have a guilty conscience for a lifetime.”

Helian Xuan looked at him as if he was a stranger. “I don’t understand you anymore. You are stranger than Little Jing. What magic does that guy have? Why are you all protecting him?”

Helian Xuan only met Li Yao once before, and the only way he’d describe him was  bold.

“You will understand it in the future,” Xia Chunyu said, smiling.

Helian Xuan shrugged and said, “I asked Little Jing to find more people to help. More people can make things easier. They should arrive soon.”

As if on cue, Helian Jing arrived with other people in tow.

Helian Xuan squinted and spotted Zhao Qixuan and the usual company he kept. He frowned. These were not the people he had in mind.

Zhao Qixuan got off the horse and came up to greet them laughingly, “Hello, Royal Highness and Brother Chunyu. I heard you guys were the hosts so I immediately rushed here.”

“What happened?” Little Jing asked worriedly.


Xia Chunyu said, “Let’s talk about it inside.”

Zhao Qixuan and the others had no idea what was happening and felt that this dinner was dodgier than they were led to believe.

As the group walked into the restaurant, Manager Qian immediately recognized Zhao Qixuan and Young Royal Highness Jing. Manager Qian happily greeted them, knowing that Young Royal Highness Jing has a close relationship with Li Yao.

“Young Royal Highness and Heir-son Lord, please, come upstairs.”

Ah Xing took them to the second floor and neglected to offer the higher suite.

Xia Chunyu gave Helian Jing a meaningful look.

Luckily, Helian Jing understood and said discontentedly, “Why are we only on the second floor? I want the Fu Qu Attic.”

“I’m sorry, Young Royal Highness, though the Fu Qu Attic is empty along with other rooms, the whole of the third floor was already rented out,” Ah Xing responded.

“Who is so rich that he hires the whole floor and leave the other rooms empty? What purpose does that even serve?” Zhao Qixuan demanded. How many people in Jin Ling could be as extravagant as him?

Helian Jing added, “Yeah, who dares to be that cocky? What, do they just want to show their riches off?”

Zhao Qixuan rolled his eyes. “Let’s go and have a look there.”
