The lazy voice was mixed with the bubbles of just waking up, and sounded a little unhappy after being disturbed.
His clothes were not very tidy, his hair was disheveled and had not been tidied up yet, he was rubbing his half-open eyes with one hand, his mouth was slightly pouting, and he looked like he had not woken up yet.
"Who's looking for me so early in the morning? It's really annoying. It better be something important, otherwise I won't agree."
He flipped over and jumped directly from the second floor. Since he was not fully awake yet, he staggered when he landed.
A big warm hand wrapped around her waist, barely straightening her crooked body.
"Little thing, you better be careful." Di Shitian looked like he had gotten up early. He was holding Ling'er with one hand and a bowl of porridge in the other.
It seemed that he got up early on purpose to prepare breakfast for Ling'er.
Ling'er smelled the familiar smell and knew that the person coming was Emperor Shi Tian, so she didn't try to dodge, and just put the center of gravity of her body completely on Emperor Shi Tian. It just so happened that she was not awake yet, so she could take a nap by leaning against him.
Suddenly, his nose moved and he smelled a fragrant scent. He opened his eyes and saw the porridge in Emperor Shitian's hand.
"Tiantian, you got up so early to have breakfast?" As he said that, he put his nose close and sniffed hard.
"You know what, it smells pretty good. It must contain the best monster meat. It smells full of spiritual power." Turning around, he smiled and patted Di Shitian's shoulder, raised his eyebrows and said, "Tiantian, I didn't expect you to be so picky. Now you are so particular about eating. You are worthy of being the Demon Lord."
... ...
"I made this for you personally." Emperor Shitian remained calm and looked back at Ling'er's mischievous smile with a face full of affection.
Well, to be honest, Ling'er really couldn't get used to Di Shitian's seductive look.
But it was so charming that I was stunned for a moment.
The interactions between Ling'er and Di Shitian were all seen by Mo Lingling and her servant.
Seeing how Emperor Shi Tian doted on this broken woman, she was almost mad to death. Her hand that was originally holding the teacup kept tightening, and she felt that if she applied a little more force, the teacup would shatter.
After seeing this scene, Chunying was furious. This shameless woman, dragging her broken body, was actually entangled with their young palace master's sweetheart. It was really shameless.
Both of them were immersed in their own anger, but they never thought that they were just outsiders.
Seeing her young palace master's sad and angry look, Chunying finally couldn't help it.
He stepped forward and pulled Ling'er out of Di Shitian's arms.
Ling'er had just woken up and was in Di Shitian's arms, so she was not on guard and was pulled out by a little girl.
"Who is it? How dare you come up and touch me? How presumptuous." Ling'er turned her head and said, "It's you." The person she saw was the little maid who had provoked her yesterday.
He suddenly shook off the arm that Chunying was holding, and because he used too much force, Chunying fell directly to the ground.
"ah."
** was caught off guard and suddenly fell to the ground, his arm hitting the corner of the table, and Chunying screamed subconsciously.
Lifting up her sleeves to check, she saw a red and swollen area with her skin scraped off. Chunying's anger reached a new level and she was so angry that she almost had difficulty breathing.
He got up from the ground and immediately yelled at Ling'er: "You..."
"Shut up." Somehow, Mo Lingling suddenly spoke and stopped Chunying from throwing a tantrum in time.
Chunying turned around in confusion, "Young Palace Master." Her voice was soft and sounded a little aggrieved, as if silently questioning why Mo Lingling helped that woman.
"Haru Ying, please don't be rude. Please leave."
The master had spoken, so no matter how favored she was, she was still a servant. Helplessly, she stomped her feet like she was throwing a tantrum and retreated behind Mo Lingling.
Mo Lingling took a step forward and walked in front of Di Shitian, "I am Mo Lingling. When we met yesterday, I was deeply impressed. I am sorry for disturbing you today. I hope you don't blame me for being rude." She behaved elegantly, like a lady from a noble family, but completely ignored Ling'er beside her.
Ling'er curled her lips and smiled. It seemed that this was the bad peach blossom that Di Shitian had attracted. How long had it been since they met again? This man, these bad peach blossoms kept coming one after another. He was really afraid that she would be idle.
Emperor Shi Tian completely ignored Mo Lingling and walked straight to Ling'er.
"Are you okay?"
Ling'er smiled and shook her head, then nodded, which made Di Shitian a little confused. He didn't know what this little thing meant.
"It's okay if she gives me a hand. After all, I'm not a pampered lady. I've seen all kinds of storms and waves, so I can't be frightened by this drizzle. But it was okay just now. Now, it seems that the trouble has come to me on its own." As he said this, he looked at Di Shitian, and then raised his eyebrows at Mo Lingling on the side, "Look, your bad peach blossom has come to your door again."
His expression was cunning, and he seemed to want to tease Emperor Shi Tian. Unfortunately, Emperor Shi Tian had an icy face, and it seemed that he would not be fooled by such tricks. Not only did he not change at all, but the coldness around him became even worse.
Mo Lingling naturally heard the conversation between Ling'er and the others, and was extremely angry with Ling'er. However, due to the presence of Emperor Shitian, she could not lose her demeanor and leave a bad impression on Emperor Shitian, so she could only endure it.
"I don't know your name yet, but we are acquainted now. I can't always call you 'Young Master'." It doesn't matter if you ignore me, just keep on talking to me. In order to pursue Emperor Shi Tian, Mo Lingling really took the spirit of shamelessness to the extreme.
Fortunately, they were just outside and not with anyone she was familiar with. If this was seen by the people on the island, it would probably become big news for the aloof goddess Mo Lingling to lower her posture and pester a strange man.
Everything that Mo Lingling did today was humble enough. She never expected to be answered with a sentence, "Get lost!"
The cold words were mixed with a strange chill, like a knife, piercing Mo Lingling's heart. Although she was physically injured, she felt as if her heart was stabbed hard, and the pain was extremely severe.
Her face turned from slightly red to pale, but the pride and doubt in her heart always supported her belief.
Seeing her master being bullied, Chunying's anger rose again. She took a step forward and protected Mo Lingling behind her, "You are so ignorant..."
"Chunying, shut up." Mo Lingling spoke again to stop her.
"Young Palace Master, it's obvious that they are going too far."
"I told you to shut up and leave. It seems that I have spoiled you too much, which has made you so rude. I will punish you when I get back."
She is a darling of the high and mighty. Any man she likes should submit to her. She will not be compared to anyone, especially a woman who has a child out of wedlock.
Over the past few years, all the men who have seen her have fallen in love with her, with the exception of Di Shitian. He has seen her several times, and he not only seems to have no interest in her, but is also so cold. The flower of Gaoling makes people want to conquer her more and more.
She must definitely get this man.
She mustered up her courage and stepped forward again, "Sir, I don't know how Lingling has offended you. I came here today just to make friends. I hope you don't misunderstand me. If you are unhappy because of what happened last night, Lingling is here to apologize to you. I hope you will be magnanimous and not bother with a little girl."
"Apologize to her."
Emperor Shitian spoke again, but he did not turn around, and did not even cast a glance at Mo Lingling. From beginning to end, those phoenix eyes only reflected Ling'er's figure.
Perhaps it was because she thought that Emperor Shitian would say this, Mo Lingling was a little confused for a moment. After a moment, she understood the meaning of this sentence.
He wanted me to apologize to this shameless woman!
It seems that this woman does have some skills, otherwise Di Shitian would not protect her so much.
Never mind, easing the relationship between them is the most important thing right now, as for the rest, she will just bear with it for now.
He turned slightly and said to Ling'er, "My lady, my maid didn't mean to offend you yesterday. She didn't know that the river lantern belonged to you. She was just a maid who didn't know much. I hope you can be magnanimous and not make a fuss about it."
Ling'er turned her head and looked at Mo Lingling who was being very polite at the moment, "Mo... Lingling, right? It's okay, it's not a big deal, I don't even remember it." After saying that, she pursed her lips and smiled.
Ling'er's reaction was beyond everyone's expectations. According to her usual temper, she was not so easy to talk to. And this woman was clearly coming for Emperor Shi Tian. With her intelligence, she would not fail to see it.
I thought he would reject me outright and turn around to take Di Shi Tian away. But all this happened.
"Yes, you can just call me Lingling. I didn't know this young lady and gentleman called me that."
"It's fate that our names are quite similar. My name is Xia Ling'er, and his name is Di Shitian." Ling'er looked kind and friendly.
Xia Junyu, who had been paying attention to their situation upstairs, was a little confused at this moment. He didn't know what his mother was up to.
"It seems like we are destined to be together. We both have the word 'ling' in our names, so we are destined to be friends after fighting."
Ling'er seemed to agree with her and nodded with a smile.
"So, are we friends?"
"Of course, I didn't know if Miss Lingling had breakfast yet, I'm a little hungry, how about we talk while eating." There was no other way, the porridge in Di Shitian's hand smelled too tempting, making her stomach rumble.
"Okay, then Lingling will be honored to refuse." He didn't expect this woman to be so easy to talk to. In order to get close to Emperor Shitian, he could only pretend to be nice to her temporarily.
Chunying, who was standing aside, looked at the actions of her young master, somewhat puzzled. Before coming, she had clearly said that she was here to intimidate this woman so that she would know better and leave on her own, but now, she was even having dinner.
After a while, the waiter brought all the breakfast.
"Well, I'll eat first without hesitation, you guys can help yourself."
Just as Ling'er was about to make a move, she was stopped by Di Shitian. Ling'er stared at Di Shitian in confusion, "Tiantian, what are you doing?"
Di Shitian moved all the food in front of her away, then put a pot of porridge and a plate of small cakes over to her.
"You eat this."
Di Shitian took a small bowl, scooped out the porridge, and fed it to Ling'er's mouth with a spoon.
"I've tried this temperature, it's not hot."
Um...
Ling'er looked at the food at her mouth and felt like laughing.
This is the large-scale funeral scene that takes place every day in their home.
You don't need to look to know that at this moment, Mo Lingling probably wants to chop her to death.
Oh, damn, this is just bringing hatred to her.
I opened my mouth and took a big bite. Mmm, it smells really good.
Di Shitian fed Ling'er spoonful by spoonful, and Ling'er ate spoonful by spoonful. Soon the small bowl of porridge was finished. Then, Di Shitian took another small cake and said, "Try it. This is my first time cooking."
A trace of sweetness spread from her heart. It turned out that these were made for her by Emperor Shi Tian himself. No wonder he didn't let her eat anything else.
However, in front of a beautiful woman who has a crush on him, this is indeed a bit too cruel. It is simply killing without shedding blood and hurting the heart.
Ling'er subconsciously glanced at Mo Lingling who was sitting next to her. She looked quite calm. Of course, one had to ignore the fact that her fists were trembling slightly due to being clenched too tightly.
As expected of a lady from a noble family, she has a good mental quality and never shows her emotions on her face. It is really admirable.
"Haha, I was so busy eating that I forgot about Miss Lingling. You should eat too, you should eat too. The food here is pretty good." I just don't know if she can still swallow it in such a situation.
Mo Lingling suppressed her anger and kept a faint smile on her face. "Actually, I've already used some before I came here. You guys can just eat it. But seeing how delicious you are eating, I wonder if I can have the honor to taste the porridge made by Shi Tian."
Tsk tsk tsk, you haven't heard of outsiders yet. It's only been a while, and Shi Tian has called him. How kind. He even wants to eat the porridge made by Emperor Shi Tian himself. He really knows how to take advantage of others. He doesn't consider himself an outsider at all.
"But..." Ling'er wanted to say yes, but before she could say anything, she was drowned out by Di Shitian's voice.
"No." Emperor Shi Tian refused decisively and ruthlessly.
What a joke, he made this specially for the little thing. He was not a person who loved cooking, but he learned it specially because he knew that the girl liked food. In other words, he learned cooking only for Xia Linger, and other people who wanted to eat the food she cooked were not allowed to think about it.
"Would you like some more?"
Ling'er shook her head, "No, I have to save some of this delicious porridge for Yu'er, and I can just eat one cake."
"Then I'll have someone take it down and keep it warm on the fire." It's okay to give it to your own son. After all, he's your own child, and you still have to treat him with some love.
"Miss Lingling, I'm sorry. Because I have a son, so... you can have this, this is century egg and lean meat porridge, one of the signature dishes of this restaurant, it tastes very good, you can try it."
"Besides, who cares? My young palace master has never tasted all kinds of delicacies from land and sea. He is so stingy." Chunying muttered softly on the side. Ling'er naturally heard it, but didn't say anything.
However, Mo Lingling put her arms under the table and tugged at Chunying's sleeve, signaling her not to cause trouble for herself.
This Emperor Shi Tian was not as shallow as they imagined. If they wanted to conquer him, they had to take their time. For now, they could only rely on this woman to get closer to him.
But what kind of tricks did this woman use to make Emperor Shitian love her so much? Judging from her tone, Emperor Shitian already knew that she had a child.
Under such circumstances, Di Shi Tian was still able to remain deeply in love and without regrets. She didn't know whether she should be happy or sad.
The good news is that this man is really affectionate and friendly. As long as he can fall in love with me, we will be together forever. The sad thing is that he can actually fall in love with such a woman.
"By the way, Miss Lingling, I heard this girl keep calling you Young Palace Master. I guess Miss Lingling must be of noble status. I just don't know which family you are from. I don't think I've ever heard of such an outstanding beauty like you around here." Ling'er said while eating the cake.
"As for where I came from, I still have difficulties, so I can't say more now. But I want to make friends with you sincerely, and I hope you two will not doubt it."
"Haha, you don't even dare to tell me your identity. Well, let's not tell you. Maybe we are of low status and don't deserve to know. It doesn't matter. But in this case, we will leave first."
After he finished speaking, he stood up, pulled Di Shitian and turned around.
"Wait a moment!"
