A few minutes later the maids come with three layers bamboo box, the steam ooze from the box creating white smokes, the maid put down the bamboo box carefully on the table while the other maids clean up the table from dirty plates than other maid brews white tea on the corner of the room elegantly, after she finishes she pours the tea and served it to the guest than she bows her head courteously and leave the room, not once the maids dare to glance at Zhao Li Xin, Lory than convince this place is another Hei Shen turf, only people who works with Zhao Li Xin who never take his temperament lightly.
"Its smelled so good, no wonder Xue An begging us to bought it for her" Ming Yue Yin inhaled the savory fragrant from the dumpling on the box than she eagerly takes one dumpling for Lory than take another one for herself just like a good niece should be.
The dumpling does like a flower, it has colorful colors from pink, yellow to blue, the shape like flower buds is almost a pity for her to eat it but when she tasted it she doesn't feel pity anymore, they tasted even better then it looks.
"Oh my god, its so good" Lory open and closed her eyes in utter delight.
"We must buy this for Xue An" Ming Yue Yin have the same expression as Lory.
"Li Xin can you send the dumpling now to Xue An, I want her to enjoy this tonight, this is too delicious to wait for tomorrow" Lory pleaded while her mouth still munches her food, so unladylike but she can't help it, the dish is too good. The dumpling is sweet and salty its very soft and tender it melts in you're mouth.
Zhao Li Xin happy Lory enjoyed the food very much, he orders more dumpling for Lory because Ming Yue Yin already hogging the second layer for herself, Yuan Shao Chuckles watching Ming Yue Yin hogging one layer bamboo box without concern with other people her expression is on utter blissed whenever she chop on the dumpling, he never knew a ruler can be satisfied this easily.
Ming Yue Yin face suddenly becomes sullen when she realizes her box empty, she wants to take another box in front of Lory but Zhao Li Xin glared at her, she retracted her hand than pursed her lips dejectedly.

"Just eat, I wait for another box to come," he said with soft laugh.
He's soft voice suddenly make her heart thump, she averts her gaze than look down while chomp her food, Yua Shao don't want to bother her so he missed the faint red cheeks on Ming Yue Yin cheeks but Lory saw it clearly she giggles than she continue eating without as if she saw nothing.
In a flash, Lory and Ming Yue Yin finish three bamboo boxes, Zhao Li Xin and yuan Shao only eat a few there more interested in watching the two ladies eating with joy. Lory feel too full, she leans on Zhao Li Xin's chest while rubbing her stomach.
"I think I need the Pu'erh tea now…" she covers her mouth quickly before she blurp.
"Count me in…." Ming Yue Yin also in the same situation, her chest feel hot from too much eating.
Yuan Shao holds his laughter with his fist, Ming Yue Yin has no energy to fight with him, the truth is she can't move without blurp multiple times, she can't let anyone see that she still have a reputation to keep. Yuan Shao feel bad for her so she orders Pu Erh tea for the two greedy ladies, who told them to eat until there drop.
"Why are you eating so much?" Zhao Li Xin sighs while stroking her arms.
"When it comes to food, I just can't hold myself" she agrees she's a little bit overboard for today.
The room becomes quiet until the maids come with Pu'Erh tea for the two overeating ladies, they never seem women eating so much in front of the men before. Should they maintain there imaged in front these to handsome men?
Lory and Ming Yue Yin hold the teacup and slowly drink the tea, Lory winced when he tasted the bitter tea. Ming Yue yin sigh when she feel better after drinking the tea. Ming Yue Tin lift the bamboo curtain to enjoy the scenery but than she saw a familiar person in the other room, the room is quite far and a little bit dark out their so she's not sure if she saw the right person.
"Hei Yuan Shao!" she suddenly called.
This is the first time Ming Yue Yin called his name so he startled a little bit, suddenly his mood rises but another words coming from Ming Yue Yin ruined his mood again.
"Is that you're fiancée…" she innocently asked.
His face turn sour "I don't have fiancée" he said firmly.
"I'm kidding, why are you so angry" she rolled her eyes than she asked again, this time she asked with a serious tone "Is that Yang Wei Lan and Yang Qiong Yan?"
Ming Yue Yin words took everyone by surprised, Lory also become curious she lift the bamboo curtain from the other window, she follow where Ming Yue Ying finger pointing at than she sees three people on the same room, she recognize the Yang Wei Lan and yang Qiong Yan but she doesn't recognize the other woman "Who is that woman with them?"
Yuan Shao frown got deepen "My stepsister, Yuan Shan," he said with disdain. It easy to see he's not fond of his stepsister.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"You're step sister closed with Yang's family?" Ming Yue Yin asked.
"Not really but Yuan Shan and Yang Wei Lan are in the same circle, they do know each other" Yuan Shao does hear Yang Wei Lan try to get closed with Yuan Shao after she failed to get close to Yuan Xue An.
"I think you're sister like that Yang young master, she keep staring at him like Yue Yin staring at the dumpling" Lory said again.
"I never consider her as my sister" he refused to accept that woman child as his family, his mother only gives birth to one sister and that's Yuan Xue An, other then her he never considers his other father children as his family.
"And yes, she does likes Marquis Yang, everybody knows that" Yuan Shao sneered.
Ming Yue Yin closes the curtain, It is better never to meet them again "You know that Yang Marquis has a lot of concubines and also the regular on drunken flower brothels" she raised her eyebrows with probing gaze.
"Is not my problem which man she wants to marry, and I don't think she minds," he said casually while pour himself some wine "Maybe he though is normal for a woman with his status have many women, as long he doesn't have an official wife she still have the chance" he mocked the stupid way of thinking most women.
"We have a name for man like that" lory also close the curtain, Yang Qiong Yan not even has a half the beauty of Zhao Li Xin "We call someone like him a 'pig' he eat anything, everything, no matter how dirty and disgusting it is"
"Can't agree more" Ming Yue Yin raised her teacup to cheers.
"I think I know what Yuan Shan get if she marry that pig" Lory sip her tea calmly.
"Really, what?" Ming Yue Yin than sip her tea too"
Lory smacked her lips than she nods firmly "Gonorrhea"
Ming Yue Yin almost spit the tea from her mouth 'D*mn!'
