Evil Prince, Come Play With Me

Chapter 801: Bring the Beauty Back

Although she could only drink the tofu soup, Mo Qian’er was still satisfied with the meal.

It was hard to imagine how someone could make something as ordinary as vegetable and tofu soup so delicious.

She was even better than the chef at Prince Zi’s residence.

Lu Fenying ate more than half of the chicken and fish head. It was obvious that the two dishes were to his taste.

After eating and drinking to his heart’s content, Lu Fenying finally decided to show some concern for the girl whom they rescued. “Doesn’t she have a broken leg? How can she cook?”

Red Wolf replied, “She cooked on one leg. She said that she wants to repay Your Highness for saving her life.”

Lu Fenying thought for a moment. “When we’re in town, have her father return to the crown prince’s residence with me.”

If the daughter’s skills were this good, the father was definitely better. It just so happened that Lu Fenying wanted such a chef.

Red Wolf withdrew.

Mo Qian’er didn’t say anything and lay down after drinking tea. Since she couldn’t do anything to help with digestion, she decided to rest.

That woman was both beautiful and could cook – it made sense that Lu Fenying wanted to bring her back.

Whether he wanted to bring her back to be his chef or to keep in his courtyard, that wasn’t something she could decide.

The maid brought over the medicinal concoction and Mo Qian’er quickly fell asleep.

Soon, the carriage entered the town and went straight to the restaurant.

To everyone’s surprise, however, the restaurant was in a mess. Tables and chairs were scattered everywhere, and the tiles outside had been smashed.

There were a few pools of blood in front of the store.

“Xiu’er, you’re back. Why did you come back? Those people killed your father. Hurry up and run.”

A lady came out of the store next door.

The beauty dropped to her knees at the shop entrance. “Auntie, what happened to my father?”

“After you disappeared, that bunch of thieves came. Your father was killed, and they kidnapped your mother and little sister… You should run.”

The beauty’s face turned pale and she cried wretchedly as she knelt on the ground. “Father, I’m sorry…”

She took a pin out of her hair and cut her face.

The woman next to her hurriedly stopped her. “Xiu’er, even if you scratch your face, your father won’t come back to life. It’s better for you to find a patron and then avenge your father.”

Mo Qian’er’s heart ached when she saw the beauty’s tears.

Lu Fenying gave Red Wolf a look, and Red Wolf went forward and whispered something into the beauty’s ear. The beauty looked at Lu Fenying gratefully, and even Mo Qian’er’s heart jumped.

How could this woman be so beautiful?

She exuded a charm which people fell for unconsciously even when she didn’t have any expression at all.

Red Wolf said something, and the beauty was helped back to her feet.

Mo Qian’er guessed that Lu Fenying might be planning to save the damsel in distress.

Her father was dead, and her mother and sister were nowhere to be found. The only person she could count on was her savior.

Her beauty and cooking skills were enough for Lu Fenying to help her.

To Lu Fenying, dealing with a few thieves was nothing.

The carriage left the town and reached the border city at night, before it entered Heavenly Wind Empire the next day.

The closer they got to Heavenly Wind Empire, the warmer the weather got.

Heavenly Wind Empire’s court rested on the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month. However, the royal court was still very lively this year as their crown prince was going to ascend the throne that day.

But while they had prepared everything, there was no sign of the person who was supposed to ascend the throne…
