As Jeongguk and Sandara argued, Lalisa was looking at them with a bored expression.

'It's only a noodle. Is there any need to make a fuss out of it?' she felt irritated with these irrelevant arguments.

She was hungry. She wanted to eat, but now everyone was busy looking at the argument between the mother and son.

She got annoyed seeing their argument.

She looked at the noodles that were getting cold and soggy by the time.

She looked at the other people in the hall who were watching Jeongguk and Sandara's face off.

She shrugged her shoulders and ignoring the intense atmosphere she decided to focus on her noodles.

She picked up her chopsticks and slurped the noodles. But as she slurped a mouthful of noodles, she couldn't help but make a noise.

"Sshh."

Though she knows table manners. It's not that she was uneducated or uncultured.

But she has never eaten these kinds of noodles. Its taste was so amazing that she couldn't help but to make a satisfactory noise while eating noodles.

And how could one eat these tasty noodles without making a slurping noise?

But as she filled her mouth with noodles, everyone's gazes turned towards her.

When Jeongguk and Sandara were staring at each other. Others were looking at them holding their breaths.

The atmosphere was intense, they couldn't even breathe loudly.

They heard the noise and everyone turned to look towards the noise, including Jeongguk and Sandara.

When they turned towards the noise, they found Lalisa, whose mouth was full of noodles.

Both of them were fighting because of her and these damn noodles and she was busy filling her stomach.

When Jeongguk looked at Lalisa, whose mouth was full of noodles, the residue soup was around her lips.

She was eating like a baby with her mouth full.

He can't help but chuckle at her childlike behavior.

It's a very rare scene seeing someone eating so happily without minding others and their surroundings.

Sandara and Eunbi was looking at her with a sense of disgust.

As she was eating, but suddenly everyone's gazes turned towards her, she got startled and started coughing loudly.

She choked on her noodles and started coughing badly.

She hit her chest with her fist several times to calm down but can't help but cough.

Jeongguk took a glass of water and passed it to her to drink.

She took the glass and gulped it down in nervousness and coughed lightly.

Jeongguk stretched his hand to pat on her back.

Eunbi's face turned black seeing his care towards her.

She looked at Lalisa and said, "Sister, his highness and mother were arguing because of you. And here you're eating noodles?"

"Shouldn't you persuade his highness to not argue with mother for the sake of peace between them and that you don't need Aunt Sojin to cook for you. After all, she is old and only cooks for the royal family."

She said righteously.

Though Lalisa deserves to be served by Sojin as she was the Empress and high in rank after Emperor and Empress Dowager.

But Sandara didn't allow Park Sojin to serve her before because she never considered Lalisa as the Empress.

Because Eunbi couldn't be served by her and Eunbi complained that how much she liked Sojin's cooking and couldn't have it as she does not hold any royal title.

So how could she let Lalisa have something that even Eunbi can't have it.

As Sandara has argued with Jeongguk, she thought she would target Lalisa rather than Jeongguk.

When Lalisa heard Eunbi's words, she furrowed her brows.

She didn't want to argue with her on the dining table when her precious noodles were waiting for her.

'They won't even let me eat peacefully. Okay, fine. You want to chat then let's chat.'

She picked up the napkin in front of her and cleaned her hands and mouth with it.

As she placed a napkin back on its place she looked at Eunbi and said, " Why would I say something between son and mother's affairs?"

She said innocently.

Eunbi looked at her in disdain and said, "Weren't they fighting because of you? I think you should say something. You should deny that you don't need Aunt Sojin to serve you, peace is more important than these noodles."

She was getting annoyed with Lalisa's calm expressions.

It annoyed Jeongguk when he heard Eunbi's words; he wanted to say something but Lalisa squeezed his hand that was on the table.

As his hand was on the table everyone saw her actions and they started whispering to each other.

By now Lalisa was also used to their one-sided narrow mind. So she ignored their whispers.

Her actions also surprised Jeongguk and turned to look at her.

She focused her eyes on Eunbi and coldly said, "Firstly, I never asked his highness to get Aunt Sojin to serve me."

"Secondly, even if she serves me, I don't see that there should be any problem. Because I am the Empress. I am also holding a royal title, so according to the rules she should serve me from the start."

"But before this, I never objected to this thing. I didn't want to look petty just because of that. "

"Now his highness wants her to serve me and wanted to give me my deserved right. I don't see any problems with it. "

"I don't know why everyone is making a big deal out of it. And I don't want to interfere between son and mother's affairs because it's not proper. That's why I keep quiet by now. "

"I don't like to meddle in other people's affairs you know," she said while folding her hands around her chest in a domineering manner.

Her face was cold and arrogant. She didn't sugar-coat her words and spoke directly.

She was not interested to continue chatting with Eunbi. If she didn't speak directly, then she will find other ways to annoy her.

And she doesn't want to show them their violent side. Because this flower cannot handle her violent and crude side.

If she was provoked badly, then no one can save this Eunbi from her claws.
