Chapter 9: (9) The Horrifying Feeding Activity

“Master, I’ve lost my memory.” Looking at Ye Luoxuan like this, Leng Lingxue suddenly flashed an innocent smile. As she gazed at him, a glint of craftiness flickered through her eyes, though it did not escape Ye Luoxuan’s notice.

Watching Leng Lingxue, whose smile was tinged with craftiness, the corners of Ye Luoxuan’s mouth curled upward. This little kitten was exactly the kind of—prey—he favored most.

When Bai Sha arrived with Ye Luoxuan’s dinner, this was the scene that greeted him. After a moment of slight surprise, he lowered his head, a strange light flashing briefly in his eyes before vanishing.

Their King was indeed different when it came to this child.

It was just that this child’s identity was too complicated, and her origins were far too mysterious.

Bai Sha silently signaled for the dinner to be placed on the stone table in front of Ye Luoxuan. Looking at the exquisite dishes, Leng Lingxue’s stomach let out an uncooperative “gurgle” once more. The aroma kept wafting over, and not caring about anything else, she grabbed the golden chopsticks on the table and picked up the dish closest to her, popping it into her mouth.

It was truly delicious.

However, this action of hers gave Bai Sha, standing to the side, a huge fright. His heart began to pound uncontrollably, and he didn’t even dare to glance at Ye Luoxuan’s expression.

Those golden chopsticks were Ye Luoxuan’s exclusive pair; no one dared to touch them. For those who did, there was only one path to take—death.

But this time, things went beyond Bai Sha’s expectations. Even though Leng Lingxue had eaten more than half of the dishes on the table, Ye Luoxuan still hadn’t made a single move. This shocked Bai Sha, and he lifted his eyes slightly, only to be instantly dumbfounded, a look of pure shock spreading across his entire face.

It was for no other reason than the fact that the smile currently playing on Ye Luoxuan’s lips was not his usual cold-blooded, bone-chilling expression. The light radiating from his eyes was not one of cold detachment or bloodthirsty cruelty, but rather a smile filled with traces of indulgence and amusement.

“Hey, Master, you should eat something too.” By the time Leng Lingxue felt her stomach was nearly full, she finally had a change of heart. The delicious dishes on the table had been mostly consumed by her, yet Ye Luoxuan hadn’t even touched the silver chopsticks beside him. Leng Lingxue couldn’t help but scoop up a bowl of Eight-Treasure Porridge that hadn’t been touched yet and held it out to Ye Luoxuan’s lips, smiling in a fawning manner.

Although the man before her was unfathomable and she still hadn’t figured out what he was thinking, one had to bow their head when under someone else’s roof. As his disciple, she naturally had to curry favor with this difficult-to-provoke master of hers. After all, it’s easier to enjoy the shade when you’re under a big tree.

In truth, it wasn’t that Ye Luoxuan wouldn’t use the silver chopsticks; it was simply because he only ever used those golden ones...

Watching the Eight-Treasure Porridge being offered by Leng Lingxue, a strange light flashed in Ye Luoxuan’s eyes, too fast for anyone to capture. His deep gaze rested on the fawning Leng Lingxue before him, and he suddenly found it extremely interesting. He couldn’t help but gently open his mouth to eat the porridge, completely disregarding Bai Sha at his side, or whether his heart could withstand such a terrifying sight.

As if that wasn’t enough stimulation, Ye Luoxuan—right before Bai Sha’s eyes, which were about to pop out in astonishment—took the spoon from Leng Lingxue’s hand, scooped up some Eight-Treasure Porridge, and held it to her lips. Seeing this, Bai Sha felt his heart could no longer take it.

This scene was simply... too terrifying. It was even more horrifying than seeing a ghost!

Was this really their King, who suffered from severe mysophobia?

The Eight-Treasure Porridge feeding session finally came to an end just as Bai Sha’s heart reached the point of numbness from being unable to bear any more shock.
