Celine had been very bored recently. Ever since she became Liu Yu's personal maid, she had basically not done anything related to maids. Ah! It wasn't that she wanted to just eat for free and not work. The other palace maids could do what Celine could do here, and they could do it better than her. What she did not know how to do, other palace maids could do it just as well. This situation made Celine, who had lived for nearly a thousand years, feel that she was an extra person for the first time! At the thought of this, Celine couldn't help but laugh at herself.”
Celine, who was strolling around the East Palace, looked at the surrounding scenery while reminiscing about today's breakfast. They could eat different delicacies here every day, especially the crab roe dumplings in the morning. The taste was really memorable! How did the Chinese Federation invent these strange delicacies? Celine, who was deep in thought, accidentally smelled the fragrance of food. " Wow, I've found delicious food again!" Celine's eyes lit up when she came back to her senses. She immediately turned into a human-shaped food search radar and searched for the fragrance!
When they arrived at a side hall, Celine smiled proudly and said,"No matter how deep you hide, you can't escape my nose!”He pushed open the door and entered the hall. It was actually a kitchen. Modern cooking utensils and ancient furniture were intertwined. A young girl in a light yellow dress was wearing an apron and was seriously mixing dough. Celine, who was standing at the door, could not bear to disturb this beautiful and warm scenery! However, in front of the delicious food, Celine still resolutely greeted the girl."Hey, little maid, what are you cooking again?”
Mingyu, who was disturbed, was not angry. She only tilted her head and smiled gently when she saw the person who came."So it's Miss Liu! I'm sorry, I'm making snacks for His Highness and can't entertain you. Come in and have a seat!”
Celine did not stand on ceremony. She walked into the house and sat elegantly on a chair. She said to Mingyu,"Didn't I say it before? Just call me Celine. Don't call me Miss Liu.”
Upon hearing this, Mingyu stopped in surprise. She turned around and looked at Celine in confusion."Why? Didn't His Highness give you this name? I think it's pretty good!"
Casually putting her slender legs aside, Celine shrugged and said,"It's nothing. I'm just not used to it. Moreover, this name was given to me by that brat on his own accord! I didn't admit it."
Looking deeply at Celine, Mingyu said with a complicated expression,"Lady Liu is really an unpredictable person! You must have a lot of stories on you. No wonder His Highness was attracted to you.”
Celine smiled and said,"Speaking of which, you actually let me stay by the Crown Prince's side without worrying about a woman like me who can't be seen through?”
Turning around, Mingyu continued with her work and replied,""At first, I really wanted to capture you and interrogate you, but I realized that after His Highness was with you, the smile on his face became more and more like the smile that a child of his age should have. Although His Highness would smile in the past, I know that these smiles are heavy after being shackled by all kinds of responsibilities! I really hope that he can live a carefree life like an ordinary child.”
After taking a deep look at the girl in front of her, Celine turned to look at a gingko tree outside the window and said,"I couldn't tell that it wasn't easy for you either! But you really care about that little brat.”
After wrapping the kneaded dough with a wet towel and putting it aside, Mingyu began to mix the fillings again and said,"I'm an orphan. I don't know who my parents are for as long as I can remember, but I don't blame them! Do you know why?" When she said this, the girl's tone was very calm, and she did not even stop her hand movements. It was as if this unfortunate encounter was as boring as plain water in front of her!
"Because!" At this moment, the girl stopped what she was doing and said gently,""I met the most precious thing in my life. The moment he was born, his body was soft and his fair skin was like a small snowball. I don't know why the other palace maids always cry when they hug him, but when I hug him, they're so happy! When the Empress saw me, she always joked that I was like a long-lost little sister. Just like that, I was lucky enough to become his personal maid and be able to see him walk for the first time and speak for the first time…"
Listening to the girl's story quietly, Celine looked at Mingyu, who was immersed in her memories! She was very envious of the girl in front of her for having such a beautiful memory. On the other hand, her past was filled with lies, deceit, harm, greed, and blood. It was as if all the dark sides of human nature were accompanying her memories. It was because of this that she forgot the past and threw away her own name. She only used the code name C.C. to walk in the world, looking for redemption! At this moment, she remembered that Liu Yu had mentioned something when she named her. It seemed to be called Liu Xu? The color of snow was indeed quite suitable for his desire to forget everything!
After saying that, Mingyu smiled at Celine in embarrassment and said,"I'm sorry to make a fool of myself. I don't know why I always feel especially relaxed when I'm with Miss Liu, so I accidentally talked so much.”
"It's fine. On the contrary, I quite like your story!”Celine, who had come back to her senses, said to Mingyu. She looked at the dough on the stove and remembered that she was here."By the way, what are you cooking?”
Mingyu opened a steaming steamer, and a sweet smell immediately rose into the air along with the steam. "I'm making some pastries to send to Your Highness during lunch.”Smelling the alluring fragrance, Celine said intoxicated,"It smells so good! Can I have a taste?"
"Of course, this is just a trial product. Since Miss Liu is here, let's try it together!”As Mingyu spoke, she placed the steamer on the table and handed a pair of chopsticks to Celine.
She carefully picked up a piece of jade-like green pastry, slightly curled her red lips and blew on the pastry for a while, then impatiently sent it into her mouth. Instantly, her mouth was invaded by a sweet taste. The tip of her tongue felt the soft and smooth texture. Celine caressed her slightly red face and said,"That's great. I've never eaten such a delicious dessert before!”
However, Mingyu was a little dissatisfied." No, it's too sweet. Moreover, the texture is a little sticky. This is not good for Your Highness's teeth. We have to redo it!"”
Celine looked at Mingyu, who was frowning in disbelief. She did not understand why Mingyu was still not satisfied even though it was already so delicious. She could not help but sigh."That brat is really lucky to have such a good girl like you caring for her!”"I'm His Highness 'personal maid!" Mingyu said with a red face. These are all things that should be done."
Looking at Mingyu's blushing face, Celine said with a faint smile,"Compared to me, a maid who doesn't do her job properly, you're simply too perfect! By the way, why did you think of making pastries for him today?”
"Oh! Today, Old Master Wei plans to bring Your Highness out of the palace, so we'll settle lunch outside. I'm afraid that Your Highness won't be used to the food outside, so I'll make something that Your Highness likes to eat and bring it over.”
"Why did they leave the palace?"
"I heard from His Highness that he's going to inspect Central Continent Heavy Industries?”
Celine blinked and thought of something. She bewitched Mingyu,"Hey! It's not good to let His Highness leave the palace like this.”
"It can't be!" Mingyu said doubtfully. With Master Wei around, it won't be a problem."
Celine stood up and patted Mingyu's shoulders with both hands. She said seriously,"I'm not talking about safety. Think about it, it's a group of men going with you. How would they know how to take good care of His Highness? Moreover, if they waited outside for lunch, everyone else would be eating fast food. How could His Highness have the cheek to eat the pastries that he had carefully prepared? He would definitely treat them to a casual meal. Think about it, the fast food outside is not clean. If His Highness eats it…
As she listened to Celine's explanation, Mingyu's pretty face turned paler and paler. She had actually overlooked such a big problem. Just as Celine had said, what if His Highness really had a stomachache? Thinking of this, Mingyu stood up and said with a serious expression,"Miss Liu's words are indeed worthy of attention. As the Crown Prince's maids, how can we allow such unclean food to poison His Highness 'body? This time, we must accompany you out of the palace!”
Celine was as happy as a fox who had stolen grapes. She agreed with Mingyu's words."That's right! We are personal maids, so we naturally have to be by the Crown Prince's side at all times. Otherwise, who will take care of His Highness?”
