In the end, I still kept my promise and roasted the fish for Bai Jing. As Qi Mo was insistent, he got one of the fish and left the courtyard satisfied after eating it.
When I sent the grilled fish over to Bai Jing, Sun Rouer was still there. I had underestimated her endurance, and when I reached the entrance of the room, it was as if I had seen a living buddha saving a life. I immediately rushed over to welcome her. Jian Yi said with relief.
"What's wrong?" I was baffled.
"That Miss Sun stayed in the Duke's study the whole time and refused to leave. The Prince doesn't know how to speak, and the Miss Sun always used the excuse of discussing the Buddhist scriptures to stay in the study. The Prince told me to think of a way to get rid of him, but I had no other choice." Sword1's face was filled with deep bitterness and hatred.
I smiled and then pushed open the door and entered. Bai Jing was holding onto a book as he looked at the Miss Sun grinding to the side. Bai Jing did not write anything down, nor was he afraid of embarrassment.
Oh, Miss Sun, are you not done consulting your buddhist mantras? If you want me to say, there are so many things you don't understand, you should give up. This shows that you are not fated with the buddhist mantras. I put down the thing in my hand and said smilingly.
"Princess, why have you come again? The Princess also wants to come over to discuss things with us." Seeing her current appearance, I really would have thought that she was a beautiful, kind fairy. It's a pity, Qi Mo's words still echoed in my mind.
"I'm not someone who likes to force things. I'm just here to deliver food." I pointed to the grilled fish on the table.
Surprise flashed across Miss Sun's face. "I didn't expect that the princess knew how to cook."
"There's more than you can think of."
Bai Jing had already put down the book in her hands. She stood up and walked over to the table, and only after looking at the grilled fish did her expression relax a little. Miss Sun had an awkward expression, looking at her, she probably thought Bai Jing would invite her to stay and taste it together.
"Miss Sun must be hungry too, it's a pity that I didn't prepare for you, and it's getting late, so let's go slowly." I looked at Miss Sun with an angry face, and the Miss Sun looked at Bai Jing, not even bothering to look at him, he said to the sword outside the room, "Jian Yi, see the guest out." The moment the sword came in, it made an inviting gesture towards Sun Rouer, causing him to be unable to keep her face, and without even bowing, she ran off with a face full of tears.
"How is it? I helped you chase him away." I said proudly, leaning against the table, to Bai Jing, who was fighting with the fish spines.
"That's what you should have done. If it wasn't for you, she wouldn't have come in." Bai Jing said slowly as he bit into a piece of fish.
I was instantly speechless. How did I know that Bai Jing didn't intend to bring her in at all? He even made me use a roasted fish in exchange.
"This fish is a bit old." Bai Jing ate a few mouthfuls before speaking.
I looked at Bai Jing and really wanted to smash him to death with a hammer. He didn't feel any pain in his waist even though he was standing, and he even thought that the fish was old. It's already good enough that I can give him some. "Then don't eat it." I curled my lips.
"I want this beef in the morning." Bai Jing put down the chopsticks in his hand and looked at me. His eyes seemed to shine.
"Beef, you mean the steak from last time."
Bai Jing didn't say anything, but nodded his head. I rolled my eyes, "I won't do it." It was a very straightforward rejection.
"Are you sure you have nothing to tell me?" Bai Jing didn't get angry. He crossed his arms and leaned against the chair as he looked at me with determination.
I pondered for a while, and suddenly realised when I did not have a word to say. I had just discussed with Qi Mo about going to the restaurant together, if I wanted to start my own business, I would have to do it in vain.
"I was instantly defeated, but I was puzzled as to how Bai Jing knew. Could it be that there was a spy in the courtyard? Just as I was guessing, Bai Jing spoke again." It was Qi Mo who said this, he said he was afraid that you wouldn't dare speak, so he helped you inform me first, to let me be mentally prepared. "
I instantly clenched my fists. This Qi Mo sold me out, how could I want to open a restaurant with him? He's so unreliable.
"Well, what kind of beef will be cooked tomorrow?" The one I appointed said dejectedly.
"What?" Bai Jing looked at me strangely.
"Steaks are something to take care of. You get old when you're fully cooked, and you don't like it." I explained.
"Just like last time."
"Oh, okay, then I'll open the restaurant." I opened my mouth in anticipation.
"I still need to think about it. It depends on your performance." Bai Jing took a cup of tea and slowly sipped on it. I wanted to curse, but I had to restrain myself. After all, I still had to rely on him.
At night I had a beautiful dream. In the dream, I opened my own restaurant, business was booming, a lot of money was transferred, I became the first rich man, holding the white silver to sleep every day, I smiled happily in the dream.
The next morning, I started preparing for Bai Jing's breakfast. After all, I needed his help, so I personally chose a piece of the best beef, then prepared more ingredients for Bai Jing. I wanted to make some other fresh ingredients for him, and I haven't tried the retro oven that Hong'er made last time.
I took more flour, eggs, and other ingredients. The people in the kitchen promised us everything, saying that it was because of Bai Jing's orders. The ingredients were ready, and the next step was to prepare them.
It was still early in the morning when I first tried to make a small cake, because it was hard work for the egg to send off, and I even went out of my way to find the sword to help her. When I first mentioned it, I didn't agree to it until I was forced to use it.
"Princess, are you sure you can eat this white meat? Stop messing with me." The sword felt sore in one hand and began to question me.
"You're not even worth as much as these eggs. I've spent money to entertain you, and I'm not sick." "No," I retorted.
"Not necessarily." Sword1 muttered in a low voice.
"Do what I told you to do. If you don't, next time if you encounter a situation like what Sun Rouer did yesterday, I won't help you." I threaten Sword One.
"I'll hit him, I'll hit him, alright?" The person who had been appointed by Sword1 picked up the large basin and continued his work with all his might.
