The moment Xiao Yan entered, the three of them enthusiastically invited him to sit down and eat. Su Ye dragged him in and Ji Wanwan handed him a pair of chopsticks. Su Qingqing even picked up a piece of stir-fried vegetables that had turned black and smiled brightly. “Ninth Uncle, quickly try it. My mother made this personally. It’s very delicious!”

Su Qingqing emphasized the last few words. She was afraid that Xiao Yan would fail and say that it wasn’t delicious. Then, they would be in trouble.

“Qianqian made it herself? Then 1 have to taste it well.” Xiao Yan looked at the charred green vegetables as if he had seen some exotic delicacies. His smile was extremely bright as he picked up his chopsticks and placed it into his mouth with a smile.

Creak! Creak!

Those who didn’t know would think that Xiao Yan was gnawing on rocks. This eerie chewing sound made the three of them fall silent. They kept praying in their hearts that Xiao Yan wouldn’t despise Su Qian’s cooking.

Even Su Qian couldn’t help but feel nervous.

She didn’t know why, but she actually cared a little about what Xiao Yan thought of her food.

Under everyone’s gaze, Xiao Yan praised without changing his expression, “It’s delicious.”

“Really?” Ji Wanwan, Su Ye, and Su Qingqing asked in surprise.

At this moment, they all suspected that Xiao Yan had no sense of taste. Otherwise, how could he remain calm?

“It’s really delicious.” After saying that, Xiao Yan gracefully picked up his chopsticks and continued eating.

No matter what he picked up, he would eat it with a smile. Xiao Yan would praise it with almost every bite, and it was the kind of praise that came from the heart. He could even tell what ingredients were used in the pitch-black dish. He was very attentive.

Ji Wanwan, Su Ye, and Su Qingqing were stunned by this scene.

They suspected that Xiao Yan had no taste buds. Otherwise, how could he remain calm?

However, thanks to Xiao Yan’s large appetite, the three of them didn’t eat much.

Even so, Ji Wanwan’s delicate stomach could not withstand such devastation. She could not be bothered to talk about proper matters after the meal and hurriedly left.

Su Ye and Su Qingqing couldn’t hold on either. They quickly found an excuse to leave and take some medicine to prevent diarrhea at night!

In the end, only Xiao Yan was left in the dining room, drinking tea with Su Qian.

“Your Highness, are you here today for something?” Su Qian asked as she put down the teacup.

“In a few days, there will be a gathering in the underground city. I want to ask if you are interested in attending.” Xiao Yan said patiently, “You just came back. Perhaps you don’t know much about the underground city. It’s the largest black market in the imperial capital. Things that can’t be obtained through legal means and rare things are all available there.”

Hearing this, Su Qian’s eyes lit up. “1 wonder if there are any Dragon-repelling Fruit in the underground city?”

“Dragon-repelling Fruit?” Xiao Yan seemed to have never heard of this medicinal herb.

“It’s a rare herb. I’ve been looking for it, but I haven’t been able to find it. If the underground city has it, I’ll definitely make a trip there,” Su Qian said with a burning gaze.

“I’ve never heard of this herb in the underground city. However, if it doesn’t exist in the underground city, it won’t exist anywhere else in the imperial capital.” Xiao Yan asked back, “Is this herb very important to you?”

“It is very important. I’m willing to do anything to get it, so if Your Highness has any news about this herb, please tell me immediately.”

Su Qian wanted these herbs for Su Qingqing.

Therefore, this medicinal herb was especially important to her. Even if she had to sacrifice everything she had to exchange for it, she would not hesitate.

Su Qian’s firm attitude surprised Xiao Yan. “Okay, 1 will ask someone to inquire about it for you in the next few days.”

“Thank you, Your Highness,” Su Qian quickly said.

“There’s no need to be so polite between us.” Xiao Yan looked deeply at Su Qian. “What’s mine is yours. If you need anything from the Ninth Prince’s Residence, you can ask at any time.”

Su Qian felt that Xiao Yan’s gaze was too deep, causing her face to heat up. She couldn’t help but cough twice. “It’s better to settle the accounts clearly, so I will still have to thank Your Highness. Your Highness, I’m a little tired. Why don’t 1 get my men to send you back?”

“No need, I’ll go back on my own.” Just as Xiao Yan was about to leave, Su Ye quickly walked up and stood behind Xiao Yan.

“Mother, let me send Ninth Uncle out. You stay and accompany Qingqing.” Su Ye’s smile was warm and bright as he pushed Xiao Yan. “Ninth Uncle, let’s go.”

Xiao Yan nodded and Su Ye pushed him out.

After leaving the dining room and coming to the long corridor, Xiao Yan gave Dong Yan a look, and Dong Yan obediently retreated.

Seeing Xiao Yan dismiss him, Su Ye stopped in his tracks. “Did Ninth Uncle know I have something to say to you?”

Su Ye was indeed looking for an opportunity to ask Xiao Yan some things, but he did not show it. He did not expect Xiao Yan to see through his thoughts.

“You and Qingqing are inseparable. You suddenly came to look for me alone. Of course, there’s something going on.” Xiao Yan glanced at Su Ye. “Tell me, what’s the matter with finding me?”

“Ninth Uncle, do you like my mother?” Su Ye looked at Xiao Yan and asked.

“Yes,” Xiao Yan thought for a moment and said.contemporary romance

Su Ye was very satisfied with this answer. “1 knew it. My mother is beautiful, kind-hearted, and capable. No man can resist her. But Ninth Uncle, 1 can tell that my mother doesn’t seem to like you.”

Su Ye’s words were too direct, instantly piercing Xiao Yan’s heart. “Then tell me, what should I do?”

“Ninth Uncle, the most important thing when pursuing a girl is to be bold, meticulous, and shameless. You figure it out yourself. However, I have to make it clear to you in advance. If my mother doesn’t like you, us siblings won’t acknowledge you as our new father.”

Su Ye really liked Xiao Yan, but what he and his sister valued the most was their mother’s happiness.

After saying that, Su Ye quickly ran away.

That night, Gu Qingyou personally made a trip to the Su Residence and found Su Qian. He reported to her word for word that the First Elder of the Blood Demon Pavilion had looked for him during the day.

In the room, Su Qian lay on her side on the soft couch with a lazy and charming expression, like a tired cat. “So, it turns out that Ji Wanwan is indeed the daughter of the Pavilion Master of the Blood Demon Pavilion?”

“Yes, but Ji Wanwan’s identity is rather awkward.” Gu Qingyou paused for a moment before continuing, “The Blood Demon Pavilion was originally Ji Wanwan’s mother’s family. However, the Old Pavilion Master valued Ji Wanwan’s father and passed the position of Pavilion Master to him. Ji Wanwan’s mother also passed away of illness shortly after Pavilion Master Ji took over the position of Pavilion Master. The next year, Pavilion Master Ji married a new wife and gave birth to a son. Therefore, although Ji Wanwan was the Eldest Miss of the Blood Demon Pavilion, she was always suppressed by her stepmother and stepbrother.”

“No wonder she wanted to save the sub-branch Pavilion Master.” Su Qian nodded in realization.

The sub-branch Pavilion Master, Qi Yao, was the Old Pavilion Master’s legitimate son and Ji Wanwan’s uncle. However, Qi Yao had been poisoned many years ago, so the Old Pavilion Master did not pass the position of Pavilion Master to his son but chose to entrust it to his son-in-law. Now, it seemed that the Old Pavilion Master had not chosen the right person.

“Master, what do you think about Ji Wanwan?” Gu Qingyou asked curiously as he glanced at Su Qian..
