Where do you get your confidence from?

Duanmu Yan was really going to cry now, but she didn't have the guts to pull him up from the bed.

He stood beside the bed for a long time, then suddenly turned and ran out of Qianle Palace without looking back.

A trace of ridicule flashed across Gong Shengrui's lips;

It seemed that he had overestimated her.

Su Yun turned over, hugged Yuxuan and fell asleep.

One hour later …

"Yes!" Just leave it here! " Duanmu Yan commanded a group of servants to place a row of delicious food on the table in an orderly fashion.

When they were all set up, Duanmu Yan casually waved her hand, signalling them to leave.

Everyone held onto their bodies, and like a fish in water, they left the Qianle Palace.

"Emperor! Is that really okay? " Chen Xi asked worriedly. After knowing that the Emperor had angered the Prince Regent, her heart had been in turmoil.

Duanmu Yan took a deep breath, and said with an expression that said "even if you don't want to, you still have to!"

"…" Chen Xi.

"You should leave first. Otherwise, if he loses his temper, it would be hard to avoid getting angry at you!" Before entering the inner room, Duanmu Yan had a rare foresight.

"This servant is not afraid, this servant is willing to stay and accompany Emperor in advancing and retreating together!"

A hint of emotion flashed across Duanmu Yan's small face. She knew that she was the one who treated him the best in this palace.

"I don't want you to be criticized for my sake. I will take responsibility for my own actions. I also believe that I will be able to take care of this myself!" Duanmu Yan pushed Chen Xi out of the Qianle Palace and closed the door.

"Emperor …"

"Stay outside the hall and wait for my good news!" With that, he turned around and walked towards the inner room.

The moment Gong Shengrui and the rest stepped into the Qianle Palace, they had already woken up, but they did not open their eyes.

Duanmu Yan carefully walked closer to the bed. When his originally confident face touched Gong Shengrui's, even when she was asleep, a cold expression emerged on his face. In that instant, she couldn't help but retreat.

However, when she thought of the people living in the abyss of suffering, she had no choice but to rebuild her courage.

Weak reached out her hand and shook Gong Shengrui's arm.

"Gong Shengrui! "You must be hungry, right? I ordered someone to prepare a lot of delicious food for you!"

"…" Do you think that everyone is like you, a standard foodie?

Seeing that he had no intention to wake up, Duanmu Yan squatted down beside him.

"I know that you're angry with me. I've already realized my wrongs. I promise that I'll obediently listen to you in the future and not be naughty anymore. Please forgive me this time, alright?" Duanmu Yan pleaded. His small face that looked like a crystal bun was almost twisted into a ball, "Gong Shengrui! "I am truly sincere in apologizing. Not only did I personally wash my hands and make the soup, I even personally bring the food over …"

Gong Shengrui thought that since he had ignored her, she would tactfully leave. In the end, it was clear that he had once again overestimated her intelligence.

His chattering made it especially difficult for him to pretend to be asleep.

"..." "Just one mouthful, and you'll stand up and take a bite. I promise I won't bother you anymore …"

"Shut up!"

A cold voice came out from Gong Shengrui's lips, not only was Duanmu Yan not afraid, her pupils lit up instead.

"You're awake!"

"…" Under the power of your mindless thoughts, I'm afraid there aren't many people in this world that can fall asleep.

Ignoring his cold expression, Duanmu Yan happily reached out and helped him up from the bed. "I knew it!

"…" Gong Shengrui.

"I personally cooked a lot of delicious food for you. I guarantee that you will definitely like it!"

"…" Are you sure that what you make can be eaten?

How could Duanmu Yan understand what Gong Shengrui was thinking? Without a care, Duanmu Yan dragged him to the side of the table and sat him down.

After scanning through the exquisite dishes, his gaze finally landed on the two dishes in the corner.

It was hard to tell what dishes were in the plate, but people could tell at a glance what was in the other plate. At most, it was only 30% or 30%, and the most important thing was that the plate was meat, or meat with red veins on it …

Noticing where the light in Gong Shengrui's eyes fell, Duanmu Yan felt guilty and shrunk her neck back.

"Although … Although these two dishes don't look very good, I believe that their taste must be good!" Duanmu Yan said stubbornly.

Gong Shengrui smirked coldly: "Where did your confidence come from?"

"…" Duanmu Yan.

It was already past noon, and Gong Shengrui was indeed a little hungry. Picking up his chopsticks, he casually picked up a mushroom and put it in his mouth.

Duanmu Yan looked at Gong Shengrui with narrowed eyes, as if watching him eat was the best gift the heavens had ever bestowed to her.

Sensing her fixated gaze, Gong Shengrui's brows slightly knitted, but he did not say anything more and raised his chopsticks again.

Duanmu Yan watched him eat for a good while, then suddenly remembered something. She picked up her chopsticks, stood up, picked up a prawn, and placed it on the plate, then sat down very seriously and peeled off the shell bit by bit, but her skills were not good, a large prawn that was close to ten centimeters long, after she peeled it off, there was only a mere two centimeters left.

Looking at the spoils of war in his hands, Duanmu Yan happily placed the meat on Gong Shengrui's plate.

Gong Shengrui's face stiffened slightly. It was not hard to understand her intentions.

"Take it back!" The voice was cold and without any warmth, carrying an unquestionable order.

Duanmu Yan shook her head: "This is our way of expressing our apology!"

"No need!"

After Duanmu Yan heard this, her small face immediately fell, and her eyes could not help but blush red: "You still do not, will you forgive us?"

He felt wronged, his voice choked with emotions. He felt wronged.

Gong Shengrui's temples suddenly jumped, there was no doubt that as long as he did not eat this piece of meat, which had been cruelly peeled by her, she would immediately cry for him to see.

After struggling for a long time, Gong Shengrui still raised his chopsticks in the end and put the prawn meat into his mouth.

Seeing that, Duanmu Yan immediately laughed through her tears: "We knew it, you would definitely like it, we will peel it for you!"

"No need!"

"?" Duanmu Yan.

"I likes to be a vegetarian!"

Duanmu Yan nodded, thinking that he had something to say.

"There are a lot of vegetarian dishes here. If you let them go, they'll be easy to eat. But if they're not enough, I'll get someone else to make them for you!" As Duanmu Yan spoke, she took the opportunity to pick up some vegetables and placed them onto Gong Shengrui's plate. "We have personally washed these vegetables, quickly try them out!"

"…" Gong Shengrui.

Why did he have a bad premonition?

"Hurry up and eat!" Duanmu Yan's face was filled with anticipation as she looked at Gong Shengrui, waiting for his praise.

Gong Shengrui was unable to refuse, and slowly picked up a piece of vegetables from the ground and put it into his mouth. Just as he took a bite, her face suddenly changed, and he spit it out without hesitation.

Duanmu Yan was startled: "What's wrong?"

Gong Shengrui said with a darkened face, "Are you sure that you've really washed these vegetables before?"

Like a chick eating food, Duanmu Yan repeatedly nodded her head and even solemnly stretched out two of her fingers.
