Game World: Am I a toy of the system?
Chapter 230 The taste of happiness!
Chen Shu returned to his mansion and went to the back house to talk to his wife and visit his children before getting up and walking towards the backyard.
He had transformed the mansion's backyard into an herb garden, and there were several rooms for storing and making medicine.
Pushing open the door of the medicine room, a dim oil lamp stood in the corner, and several figures in black robes were sitting in the room, as quiet as ghosts.
Seeing them, Chen Shu was not surprised at all. He closed the door, lit the oil lamp, sat down on the left, and poured himself a cup of herbal tea.
"The city guards won't move, and I've got the token to leave the city. When are you going to leave the city?" Putting down the teacup, Chen Shu asked casually.
"The master has his own arrangements, and we just need to obey his orders. Sorry to trouble you this time, Third Master." A man lifted up his robe and put on his hat. It was Batian who had been thrown out of the shop before. No one knew when he got here.
Chen Shu smiled, looked at him sideways, and asked, "Don't try to hide it from me. Is he going to leave only when Master Jun comes?"
Batian: "Since Third Master already knows, why are you still asking?"
Chen Shu was playing with the cup on the table, his face suddenly became serious, and he said, "Can you tell me what Mr. Gongzi's plan is, so that I can be mentally prepared."
Batian sighed helplessly: "We can't guess what the master is thinking. These three masters should also know it."
"That's right. Young Master Jun acts casually. Even Bai Xiaotao, who knows him best, can't figure it out." Chen Shu put down the cup, picked up the teapot, poured a cup for Batian, and asked with a strange look: "What's the matter with that girl?"
Batian picked up the teacup and drank it, then shook his head and said nothing. He didn't understand why his master suddenly became interested in a woman like that.
Given the master's conditions, if he wants, he can find any woman.
Chen Shu had a playful look in his eyes and said with a smile: "Haha, interesting, really interesting, I must get to know this sister better later."
Gongzijun is so famous that everyone in the world knows him.
Everyone who knows him well knows that apart from Bai Xiaotao and his family members who are by his side, he is only special to that woman who is equally famous throughout the world.
Now there is another one, and she is an unknown woman. How can people not be curious?
After finishing the tea, Chen Shu stood up and said, "You guys can rest here for a while. If you need anything, just tell the servants."
Batian and several other men in black robes who had never appeared before stood up to see Chen Shu off. After Chen Shu left, they turned off the lights and rested.
Chen Shu rarely came back, so naturally he went back to his room to be intimate with his wife.
Under the silent night, no one knows what dirty things have happened in the quiet capital.
A tall figure in black stood on the wall of the inner city of the palace, looking at the sleeping city, lonely and silent.
His large hands with distinct joints were pressing on the hilt of the sword at his waist, and his thin lips were lightly pursed together, ruthless and indifferent.
"When did Jun Ye come to Chen Kingdom? Why didn't you inform me in advance?" A man in a luxurious red robe walked up to the top of the city wall and asked with dissatisfaction in his tone.
"You are Gongzi Huan, the second prince of Chen country. Why does Jun Ye need to report to you when he does things?" Yao Jun said calmly.
Chen Huan sneered: "Jun Ye, have you forgotten that we are in a relationship of sharing weal and woe?"
Yao Jun turned his head and looked at him. The ruthless indifference in his eyes made Chen Huan frown. He felt very uncomfortable in his heart, as if in his eyes, he was no different from the untouchables in the city.
"I am just reminding the Second Prince that Jun Ye and you are only in a cooperative relationship, and it is limited to Chen Country. There is no need to report everything to you."
Chen Huan was very wary of the mysterious Jun Ye, but in order to fight for that seat, he would naturally do whatever it took. Moreover, he was known for his benevolence and righteousness, so he was not afraid that Jun Ye would cause him trouble.
"Is Xiao Luo doing well with you? I'm really reluctant to give her to you. My lady has been nagging me all day." Although he said it with reluctance, Chen Huan's tone was very calm, as if Xiao Luo was just a commodity to be used, as long as she could bring him value it would be enough.
"Not bad, obedient, sensible and knows the rules." Yao Jun commented.
Chen Huan: "That's good. What are your plans for this visit?"
Yao Jun looked up at the dark sky and chuckled, "To be honest, I was just wandering around. I didn't expect to meet such an interesting person, so I decided to stay a few more days."
"Chen Xi." Chen Huan said the name confidently, turned his head to look at Yao Jun, and asked with inquiry in his eyes: "Do you want her?"
"The food she cooks is delicious and very much to my liking." Yao Jun admitted it directly without hiding anything. This information was no secret to the controller of the capital of Chen State.
Chen Huan frowned. This reason could not convince him. But other than that, what else could Chen Xi have that could attract this man?
love?
Chen Huan is a person who puts profit above all else. He doesn't believe that someone would risk their life for their lover. There must be some interests involved that he is not aware of.
"Leave as soon as possible. After all, the power is still in the hands of the father. No one knows what he is thinking now."
Chen Huan left after he finished speaking. If he didn't come here to ask about Chen Xi, who would be willing to come here in the middle of the night to get some fresh air? Wouldn't it be better to just stay home and hug his beautiful wife?
Not long after Chen Huan left, the patrolling imperial guards came back, and Yao Jun had already left and his whereabouts were unknown.
In the next few days, Chen Xi, who announced that she was sick, began to live the life of a trainee cook.
She didn't need to buy any materials she needed. She just had to tell her grandfather, and then ask her grandfather to tell the guy who was helping to run the tea stall and they would deliver them.
This fellow was handsome and very smart. He told others that he was a distant relative of Grandpa Chen and that his family was in trouble so he came to seek refuge.
But Chen Xi knew that he should be Jun Ye's man just like Batian.
Chen Xi also asked Xiao Luo about Jun Ye. She didn't know much. She only knew that Jun Ye was a very mysterious organization. The people in it hated the nobles and used brutal methods.
Another seven days passed, and the city gate that was strictly prohibited from entering and leaving was suddenly opened this morning, and the murderer who killed Prince Lie has not yet been caught.
After asking around, Grandpa Chen found out that Young Master Jun would be arriving soon, at the latest tomorrow, or at the earliest in the evening.
Chen Xi knew that it was time for her and her grandfather to leave, so at noon, she prepared a large table of dishes as a farewell to their first stop in ancient times.
Lion's head, fried meatballs, boiled lamb, fried steak, a big pot of milky fish soup, and some green vegetables.
The tea stall had been closed down, and Grandpa Chen did not plan to set it up again in the afternoon in order to prepare for his departure.
Because there was too much food, two tables were put together and only four people sat down: Yao Jun, Chen Xi, Grandpa Chen and Xiao Luo.
Yao Jun picked up the wine jug beside him and poured a bowl of wine. Then he picked up the chopsticks and picked up a lion head as big as a baby's fist and put it into the bowl.
Fresh, sweet, tender and juicy, it looks like a light dish, but when you put it in your mouth, the taste is very mellow.
"Delicious!" Yao Jun praised without hesitation.
Seeing that he liked it, Chen Xi squinted her eyes happily unconsciously, with a smile on her lips filled with happiness.
For a chef, it is the greatest happiness if the dishes he makes are liked by the customers, but this is what Chen Xi reminded himself in his heart.
But in the eyes of Grandpa Chen and Xiao Luo, this is clearly another taste of happiness.
Chen Xi blushed and said, "Then I will do it for you often in the future."
Yao Jun nodded: "Okay!"
