Murong Xiaowan glanced at Murong Junhua, snorted coldly, and continued eating her cotton candy.
"Defu, why don't you let me try it?”Murong Junhua's interest was piqued.
"Alright then." Helpless, Ma Xiaoshuai could only get up. Fortunately, the kitchen was already prepared.
"Wait, Zhang Defu. I'll go with you.”Murong Xiaowan clamored to follow.
"Alright, let's go." Ma Xiaoshuai held Murong Xiaowan's hand and they went downstairs.
Unexpectedly, Ma Xiaoshuai's actions shocked Murong Junhua and Wang Cheng who were behind him.
Perhaps Ma Xiaoshuai's small action was not intentional, but Murong Junhua and the other officials were extremely sharp and caught it. The dozen or so people stared at the two figures with wide eyes, their faces full of shock. Their minds were unable to react for a moment. This Murong Xiaowan was famous for her domineering nature. Even Wang Cheng knew very well who Murong Xiaowan was. She couldn't touch a tiger's butt. Not to mention holding his hand, even if she stole a glance at her, she might be broken by him. It should be known that even among the members of the Murong royal family, other than her father and mother, no one had ever touched his body, let alone holding his hand openly.
"You…did you see that? Hand…hand!" Murong Junhua, who had been greatly provoked, pointed at the place downstairs incoherently. He was shouting and yelling hysterically. Other than shock, there was also anger and indignation on his face. Damn it, even I don't dare to hold my niece's hand. You, who had beaten her butt a few days ago, actually held her hand in public? Was there any justice left in this world!
Not to mention him, even Wang Cheng had a blank expression on his face. He was nodding his head like a chicken pecking at rice, unable to say a word. The officials also had the same expression. They even forgot to smoke the cigarettes in their hands…
Ma Xiaoshuai pulled Murong Xiaowan downstairs and happened to bump into Er Gou, who was greeting the guests downstairs. This kid was commanding everyone except the kitchen today. It could be said that he had great power. Now, he was commanding a few children to come over and serve the dishes. His face was glowing with pride.
"Yo, isn't this Elder Dog?" Ma Xiaoshuai said in a strange tone.
" Humph, what is it…" Ergou nodded subconsciously, putting on an act. However, this guy who had been immersed in his cool and elegant demeanor soon noticed something strange. When he thought of his master who was familiar with this voice, he immediately broke out in a cold sweat and went limp. When he looked back, two of his three souls had run away.
"Guye! I…I didn't know…it was you.”
" You brat…" Ma Xiaoshuai laughed helplessly,""Stop pretending with me. Hurry up and get to work.”
"Alright, alright. Yes, work." Ergou stood up as if he had been pardoned. He nodded like a chick pecking at rice and ran away.
"Zhang Defu, you brat, don't play dumb with me. Hurry up and find the Cloud Candies.”Murong Xiaowan imitated him and spoke in an old-fashioned manner. However, the way she was chewing on the cotton candy in her hand made her look really strange.
"Princess, don't call me by my name in the future.”Ma Xiaoshuai turned around and said with a strange expression.
"No, I want to be called Zhang Defu.”Murong Xiaowan shouted.
"A deal? Three Cloud Candies?" It was the same old temptation.
"Ten." Murong Xiaowuan rolled her eyes and thought for a moment before extending ten fingers.
"No, five at most."
"No, at least seven."
"Six. Deal."
"Alright."
"Then what will you call me from now on?" Ma Xiaoshuai rolled his eyes and started to calculate in his heart.
"Whatever. What do you want me to call it?" Murong Xiaowan said nonchalantly as she continued to bite the marshmallow. She would occasionally fiddle with it with her fingers, as if she was calculating how many days she could eat six marshmallows.
"Call me brother?"
"No, it's unpleasant."
"Teacher?"
"…Alright." Murong Xiaowan thought for a while and finally agreed.
"Then…then listen to that cry." Ma Xiaoshuai couldn't wait.
"Teacher."
"Ah, good, good, good." Ma Xiaoshuai nodded his head with a face full of pleasant surprise. He was extremely happy inside. One should know that this little girl's " teacher " was far more valuable than a few cotton candy. Just imagine, if one day when he was working in the rear military division, this little girl came to him for food and said " teacher " as soon as she came in, and then he pretended to agree with her with a deep face, wouldn't that scare those guys in the rear military division half to death? Haha.
The more Ma Xiaoshuai thought about it, the happier he became. His face became more and more excited. Looking at the little girl who was counting how many days of cotton candy she could eat, he felt that this little girl who was a devil in others 'eyes was so cute. The more he looked at her, the more he liked her.
Feeling excited, Ma Xiaoshuai made a bold move that made him regret. This guy with a dirty smile suddenly bent down, pouted his mouth and kissed that red face.
BA Ji
Ma Xiaoshuai stood up in satisfaction and wiped the little girl who was blushing in a daze. Needless to say, this little girl's skin was really good. He subconsciously looked at the little girl's body that had faint signs of bumps and his mind started to work. Murong Xiaowan was born with a beautiful face. Although she was still young, she was still a standard beauty. It would not be difficult for her to surpass Dongfang Xueyu's beauty when she grew up. Even now, she was still a lotus flower that had emerged from the water, slim and elegant. If she could change her bad temper and be taught by him, wah, it would be so good. He didn't dare to think about it. This girl, she had to make a reservation…
The incident happened on the quiet second floor staircase. There was no one around. Fortunately, no one saw what happened next.
A snow-white shadow suddenly flashed beside the little girl. At this moment, Ma Xiaoshuai, who hadn't reacted, suddenly felt a strong force in his chest. He felt a sweet taste in his throat, and his whole body flew out under the impact of this force.
Bang!
With an extremely exaggerated posture, Ma Xiaoshuai finally got rid of the last bit of force. He fell down like mud and coughed out a large mouthful of blood. His face turned pale, and the thought of flirting had long been thrown out of his mind.
"Shameless brat, it seems like I've misjudged you. I'll kill you today.”
Other than the little girl who was stunned on the spot, there was no one around, but a cold voice echoed in the air.
Ma Xiaoshuai raised his head and felt a chill in his heart. He looked at the little girl standing on the spot and his surroundings, and his scalp went numb.
"Stop! Who told you to hit my teacher? Get lost!”
Murong Xiaowan threw away the cotton candy in her hand and shouted angrily at the surroundings.
"…Yes."
The voice was silent for a while before it finally disappeared. After that, there was no more sound.
The little girl ran over as soon as she finished speaking. She was stunned when she saw Ma Xiaoshuai's miserable appearance.
"Teacher, are you alright?"
"Ahem…ahem…no, it's fine.”Ma Xiao Shuai spat out another mouthful of blood. With Murong Xiao Wan's help, he stood up with difficulty, but he still couldn't stand properly. He looked around shakily, but he didn't find anything. In fact, when he was attacked, he didn't even see who it was. However, only he knew the strength of the punch that sent him a few meters away. Especially after he fell to the ground, the obvious killing intent in those words made him still have a lingering fear.
"Just now…who, who was it?"
"It's the dog slave who protected me. Teacher, are you alright? I didn't ask him to hit you. He did it himself. I'll teach him a lesson when I get back.”Murong Xiaowan helped Ma Xiaoshuai up as she explained, shaking her head anxiously.
"Oh…then, then it's fine. Let's go.”Ma Xiaoshuai smiled bitterly and secretly wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
"Teacher, are you alright?" Murong Xiaowan was still worried.
Nothing? How could he be fine after being hit a few meters away?
Ma Xiaoshuai couldn't help but smile bitterly. He knew that he had offended Murong Xiaowan on impulse and was attacked by the person he was protecting. It was his own fault. It was reasonable for the guard who was secretly protecting him to do this. He couldn't blame others. As for the wound on his chest, although it hurt, he could still hold on. He wouldn't be unable to walk.
"It's fine. Let's go and get the cloud candy.”Ma Xiaoshuai steadied himself and let go of Murong Xiaowan's hand.
Unexpectedly, Murong Xiaowan took the initiative to help him again." Teacher, let me help you walk."”
Ma Xiao Shuai was grateful. This little girl didn't seem to be as bad as the rumors said, but he didn't dare to accept her good intentions at this time. If he let the little girl help him, it would be a small matter if others knew that he was beaten up. If Shen Chen found out the reason and Murong Xiao Wan said that he kissed him, it would be a big matter. He would go to jail for molesting a good woman, let alone take advantage of the princess.
"No need, I can walk. You don't have to help me.”Ma Xiaoshuai smiled with difficulty, indicating that he was really fine. However, only he knew the pain in his body. As for the idea of training him, he had to give up after this incident. Who asked him to have such a powerful bodyguard? Forget about any more intimate actions, he was almost killed by this kiss. How could he dare to think about anything else?
"Then…Alright then." Murong Xiaowan thought for a moment and let go.
"Let's go." Ma Xiaoshuai tidied up and walked downstairs.
Because of his injuries, Ma Xiaoshuai didn't dare to walk too fast, and Murong Xiaowan followed him carefully.
They walked down to the private room on the second floor, which was not open yet. The two of them walked to the first floor one after another.
Even Ma Xiaoshuai who was prepared didn't expect that the first floor would be so lively. He might not be able to notice it from below, but from his higher position, he could clearly see the whole scene on the first floor. There were only dozens of tables on the first floor, but it was crowded with hundreds of people. It was a black mass, full of heads. The long benches that should be occupied by one person were mostly occupied by three or four people. Many people were also crowded in the aisle. Even the waiter who passed the dishes had to constantly shout to make way for them to move slowly.
Even so, it didn't affect the customers 'enthusiasm for tasting the dishes. Some of them were attracted by the name of the dish, while others were just here to join in the fun. Those who had a place to eat would put their arms around their chopsticks, while those who didn't have a place to eat would simply put their plates into their mouths. While eating, they would exclaim from time to time and urge their children to serve the dishes. The entire lobby was abnormally noisy.
It seemed that Ma Xiaoshuai had underestimated the effects of the food cooked by the gourmet powder and the thirteen fragrances.
It had been almost four hours since the first batch of diners entered the restaurant in the morning. Several groups of people should have left this restaurant one after another. However, judging from the current situation, there was still no possibility of stopping. This could be seen from the crowded scene outside the door.
Ma Xiaoshuai didn't expect this kind of lively scene to last for so long.
"Teacher, it seems that your dishes are very delicious.”Murong Xiaowan stood on her tiptoes and looked down. Her pink tongue subconsciously licked her lips, as if she wanted to taste it.
"You can eat with your Third Imperial Uncle and the others later.”Ma Xiaoshuai panted heavily and it was getting harder and harder for him to speak.
"Sure," Murong Xiaowan nodded her head like a chick pecking at rice, her face filled with anticipation.
The two of them squeezed their way into the kitchen with great effort. There were many sweaty waiters coming and going. However, there were also a few servants standing at the entrance of the kitchen, looking vigilant. In fact, Ma Xiaoshuai had specially arranged for them to keep it a secret. In order to prevent the secret of the gourmet powder and the thirteen fragrances from being discovered, he had specially found a few reliable servants to guard it. The cooks in the kitchen were also strictly controlled. Most of them had dealings with the Dongfang family or had received favors from Dongfang Mu. Other than the high treatment of hush money, everyone had to live in the Prime Minister's estate. Before they gained complete trust, they had to arrange for someone to monitor them in the dark. This confidential work could be said to be very strict.
A few servants saw Ma Xiaoshuai and quickly packed his luggage.”
Ma Xiaoshuai nodded and said,"Yes, pay attention."”
"Yes."
The two of them entered the kitchen and coincidentally bumped into Dongfang Xueyu, who was about to come out.
" Husband, there are so many people, we are almost…" Dongfang Xueyu was talking about how good the business was, but she suddenly noticed that Ma Xiaoshuai's expression was not right. She was shocked when she thought of his health condition," Husband, what's wrong?" Why do you look so pale?"
"It's fine, it's fine." Ma Xiaoshuai waved his hand strenuously and didn't want to talk anymore.
"Husband, what happened to you?”Dongfang Xue Yu knew Ma Xiao Shuai very well after interacting with him for a while. Seeing him like this, she became even more worried and almost cried.
"I'm fine." Ma Xiaoshuai waved his hand and said apologetically,"Xue Yu, I'm feeling a little unwell and want to go back and rest for a while. I'll have to trouble you to take care of the business. Also, you have to take care of Wang Cheng and Uncle Murong on the third floor.”
In fact, Ma Xiaoshuai's injury was not as light as he thought. After a short while, he only felt more pain in his chest, especially his throat, which was blocked by a mouthful of blood. He was afraid that Dongfang Xueyu would be worried, so he did not spit it out. Dongfang Xueyu noticed Ma Xiaoshuai's abnormality so quickly because Ma Xiaoshuai's face had already turned pale, without any blood. It was just that he did not notice it.
It was almost the end of the month, and Nangong was not afraid of the consequences of running out of manuscripts. For this reason, he hoped that those who had monthly votes could vote for " Beast: Paladin's Journey to the Other World ". Nangong was extremely grateful!
