Xia Muqing snorted and remained silent.

In the end, Xia Jingtian eased the awkwardness and brought them to the hall to eat.

Ye Qingxuan naturally sat at the head of the table. Xia Jingtian sat on his left with Xia Muqing on his right. Ruan Yu sat beside Xia Jingtian, and Xia Churan sat beside Ruan Yu.

All of them ate their meal occupied by different thoughts in mind, and Ruan Yu and Xia Churan glanced at each other with ill intentions in their eyes.

Xia Churan stood up and said, “Father, I specially prepared snow swallow soup to welcome King Zhennan today.”

Although the snow swallow soup sounded as if it was just a bowl of soup, it took long hours of careful preparation.

Seeing how bashful she was, Xia Jingtian knew what she was up to. He pondered for a moment and decided to observe the situation. After all, if Xia Churan managed to seduce King Zhennan, she would be much easier to control than Xia Muqing.

He said, “Then hurry and serve it to His Highness.”

Xia Churan didn’t move. Instead, she said to Xia Muqing, “Sister, you won’t blame me, right? This morning, you knew that King Zhennan was coming to our residence as a guest, but you refused to get up. You even lost your temper and scolded the servants who went to wake you up. I was worried that King Zhennan would blame you, so I took the initiative and cooked the snow swallow soup to apologize on your behalf.”

After Xia Churan finished speaking, she lowered her head and looked timidly at Ye Qingxuan.

Xia Muqing understood now. So she was waiting for her.

Backstabbing her was her real motive.

Xia Muqing secretly pinched Ye Qingxuan. This man only knew how to cause trouble for her.

Ye Qingxuan had originally acted as if nothing had happened. But when he felt the pain in his leg, he gritted his teeth and endured it.

He quickly grabbed Xia Muqing’s roving hand. The smoothness of her hand made him feel that it was worth it to be pinched.

Xia Muqing tried to retract her hand but she failed. She glared at Ye Qingxuan, but he ignored her.

Xia Churan was still waiting for Ye Qingxuan to reply, but the two of them started fooling around in private. No one paid attention to her.

As time passed, Xia Churan’s expression became stiffer and stiffer.

Finally, Xia Muqing drawled lazily, “In that case, bring it here. I believe King Zhennan will like it very much.”

She deliberately directed the last sentence to Ye Qingxuan. She tried to pull her hand away again.

Ye Qingxuan chuckled and gripped her hand that was struggling. “Of course I’ll listen to Qing’er.”

Their attitude infuriated Xia Churan. Did they think she was a servant?

With a stiff expression, she brought the snow swallow soup over. Unwilling to give up, she went to Ye Qingxuan. When she placed the soup on the table, she deliberately touched him gently.

Ye Qingxuan avoided her with a cold expression.

Because he avoided her, Xia Churan stumbled and looked at Ye Qingxuan with grievance.

Ye Qingxuan moved closer to Xia Muqing again and asked, “What’s that scent? It’s so smelly.”

Xia Muqing couldn’t help but laugh.

Xia Churan stood up straight with an ugly expression and said stiffly, “It’s the scent of roses.”

This was the scent she had specially put on for Ye Qingxuan today. The scent was concocted with the most expensive roses. She usually couldn’t bear to use it, but he actually said that she smelled bad.

Ye Qingxuan said expressionlessly, “Qing’er, you can’t smell like her in the future.”

Xia Muqing chuckled once again. She didn’t expect Ye Qingxuan to be so good at upsetting people. After he finished speaking, Xia Churan was too embarrassed to stay any longer.

Xia Churan wanted to leave, but when she remembered the plan they had prepared for Xia Muqing today, she forced herself to stay and returned to her seat.
