A shadow flashed outside the window. Fang Zinan saw Shang Yiqing peeking out through the window with a coquettish smile and asked, "I heard that Brother Xiao is here. What are you two hiding here to talk about?"

"What, you only appeared when you heard that Big Brother Xiao had come? I don't usually see you in the study. " Fang Zinan smiled mockingly.

"Greetings, Imperial Concubine Rong." Xiao Tianyuan greeted him in all seriousness.

After seeing Xiao Tianyuan, Shang Yiqing pushed open the door and walked in.

An unmoving figure, a face as clear as a hibiscus.

When Fang Zinan saw this face, he felt a sense of joy rising from the bottom of his heart. He really liked this kind of smile. It was plain, yet also a bit surprised. It added a little charm to it.

Behind Shang Yiqing, the maidservant held a black glazed wooden tray. In the middle of the wooden tray was a blue and white porcelain plate with a lid placed on it.

"What are you holding?" Fang Zinan asked in confusion.

"I made this myself!" Shang Yiqing said proudly, "I can guarantee that you've never eaten such a thing before."

Fang Zinan turned his gaze to Xiao Tianyuan and said, "I express my doubts about what Qing'Er has done."

Xiao Tianyuan cooperated with him and smiled.

"How can you say that about me?" Shang Yiqing glanced at Fang Zinan with dissatisfaction, "He cooked delicious food with sincerity, and you actually said that to me?"

"If it wasn't for Brother Xiao coming, I'm afraid I wouldn't have had the chance to personally experience Princess Hua-Yang's culinary skills." Fang Zinan spoke in a mocking tone.

Shang Yiqing rolled her eyes at Fang Zinan and ordered the maidservant to place the tray on the table before opening the lid.

When Fang Zinan looked over, he saw a round cake covered with vegetables and minced meat. He had never seen it before, but it smelled quite good.

"What is this?" Xiao Tian Yuan was also shocked. Before Fang Zi Nan asked anything, he asked first.

Shang Yiqing was like a child who had just done a good deed and was waiting for the adults to praise him. She revealed a humble expression and said, "You guys can try it first." "Then, she handed a piece to Xiao Tianyuan.

He had never eaten such a strange thing before. Was this really delicious? Xiao Tianyuan hesitated but did not put it into his mouth.

"Big Brother Xiao, don't tell me you aren't willing to honor something that my Qing Er made? Fang Zinan was defending his wife.

"Big Brother Xiao, I made it especially for you to eat." Shang Yiqing emphasized on the word 'specially', which made Fang Zinan roll his eyes in annoyance.

Xiao Tian Yuan's heart moved as he teasingly said, "Since the wangfei has personally made it, of course I have to taste it." Xiao Tianyuan put the biscuit into his mouth and instantly felt the salty flavor of the cake fill his cheeks and the strong taste in his mouth. It was truly an unheard-of flavour in his life. Just as he was about to say something, he was suddenly interrupted by Fang Zinan, "Is it good?" "Tell me the truth!" In fact, Fang Zinan was also worried that the rice dumpling would be bad because this was the first time Shang Yiqing cooked one, and he had experienced it for himself.

Shang Yiqing also looked at Xiao Tian Yuan nervously. She did not care about any of Fang Zi Nan's attacks. She was very satisfied with Xiao Tian Yuan's praise — for some reason, his words seemed to carry a lot of weight.

"Hurry up and tell me if it's good or not." Fang Zinan was excited, he hoped that Shang Yiqing would make the food taste worse and make Xiao Tianyuan praise Shang Yiqing less.

"About this …" Xiao Tian Yuan took another bite and savored the aftertaste!

Shang Yiqing glared at Fang Zinan unhappily, then looked at Xiao Tianyuan nervously, "Is it really that good to eat?" She had just finished cooking and had yet to taste it himself. Although he was filled with confidence, when she saw Xiao Tianyuan's expression, she lost his composure.

Xiao Tianyuan frowned and revealed an unreadable expression, but he did not say anything.

Fang Zinan became anxious, he picked up a piece of bread from the plate and placed it in his mouth: "I want to try it too." After only taking a bite, Fang Zinan couldn't help but exclaim: "This taste, it's really..." "It's really …"

"What is it?" Shang Yiqing asked anxiously.

Fang Zinan forced a smile: "You should try it yourself."

"Why do all of you look like that? Is it really that bad to eat? " Shang Yiqing grabbed a piece of the plate angrily and threw it into her mouth.

"You all …" Shang Yiqing's face was bitter. "You're all lying to me?"

Xiao Tianyuan smiled, he felt that Shang Yiqing was truly adorable.

The corner of Fang Zinan's mouth curved into a smile, his bright eyes revealing a doting expression.

"You two actually lied to me!" You really deserve to be beaten! " Shang Yiqing put down the biscuit in her hands and went to beat Fang Zinan. Fang Zinan easily dodged it and just smiled without saying anything.

"The wangfei is really honest and cute." As Xiao Tian Yuan said this, he couldn't help but think back to that day when he saw Nan Yu Lan. If they met again, what would happen?

After receiving the praise from Xiao Tian Yuan, Shang Yiqing was overjoyed, smiling as she asked: "I love what you say."

Seeing his wife being praised by someone else, even if it was his best friend, Fang Zinan's eyes still showed an undetectable trace of displeasure … And his wife had liked this man. He cleared his throat, but did not speak.

"What's wrong? I'm a doctor, let me take a look for you. " As he spoke, he reached out his hand to connect Fang Zinan's pulse.

Fang Zinan only moved a little bit and let Shang Yuqing's hand slip away. Shang Yiqing chased after him again. She felt too embarrassed to point fingers at Xiao Tianyuan, so she could only go after him. Seeing Fang Zinan dodge, she kicked and dodged, but she couldn't stop him. If it wasn't for Xiao Tianyuan holding her up, she would have fallen to the ground long ago.

This caused the teaching agent's face to redden. She had never lost herself like this in front of Xiao Tianyuan.

"The wangfei has steadied herself." Xiao Tian Yuan used his hand to support Shang Yiqing and pushed him to the right. Shang Yiqing then stood there steadily.

Fang Zinan wanted to help Shang Yiqing, but it was too late. He saw Xiao Tianyuan holding his wife, and felt extremely vexed. It was not good to lose face, so he simply stopped smiling and did not say anything.

"Brother Xiao, thank you so much." Shang Yiqing said embarrassedly.

"Princess is too polite!" Xiao Tianyuan looked at the color of the sky and felt that it would be inappropriate to stay in the Residence of Prince Rong any longer. He stood up and said his goodbyes, "It's getting late and I still have matters to attend to. I will leave first."

"Why are you leaving when you just arrived?" Shang Yiqing said in surprise, "I made this cake specially for you, you haven't eaten yet."

"I've already tasted it. Next time, I'll come again to savor Princess Hua-Yang's culinary skills." As he spoke, Xiao Tianyuan left the study.

"Then we'll send you off."

"Please wait a moment."

Seeing that Xiao Tian had walked far away, Shang Yiqing turned around unhappily and asked, "Brother Xiao is leaving, why didn't you keep him?"

"He wants to do business, why should I keep him?" Fang Zinan faintly said.

"Why do I feel that you're weird!" Shang Yiqing looked out of the window in disappointment.

Fang Zinan just smiled coldly.
