After crossing, I was miserable.

Chapter 582 Eating

Su Sili first stood quietly aside, slowly scanning everyone with her eyes. After seeing that everyone had taken their seats, she walked slowly towards her seats.

Qian Duoduo sat in the middle between Chu Yan and Murong Yun, while Su Sili chose to sit opposite them, just opposite Qian Duoduo, which was in the middle between Chu Yan and Murong Yun.

Speaking of which, this was the first time in his life that he had dined with the royal family at such a close distance!

Although there is inevitably a little nervousness in my heart, what is more is the irrepressible excitement.

This feeling was as if an originally unknown little person suddenly received the favor of God, which made him involuntarily have the illusion of "a villain succeeding".

Thinking of this, Su Sili couldn't help but laugh at himself in his heart.

The atmosphere at the dinner table was very lively. Qian Duoduo, Murong Yun and Chu Yan sat together, chatting about random things.

However, unlike others, Su Sili always kept his head down silently, focusing on the food in front of him, and did not seem to care much about the words of people around him.

At this moment, Murong Yun suddenly seemed to have discovered something extraordinary and shouted excitedly:

"Hey, Xiao Li, I find that you look quite similar to the Fourth Prince!" This sentence was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, instantly causing ripples.

Hearing this, Qian Duoduo couldn't help but roll his eyes inwardly.

How could they be similar? She thought to herself, they are totally unrelated.

Even if you want to force yourself to find a topic to talk about, you shouldn't say something so outrageous.

At the same time, Su Sili was also shocked by Murong Yun's remarks.

He secretly complained, how could he say such words so easily? Moreover, he and the fourth prince had nothing in common.

Fortunately, Qian Duoduo reacted quickly and came out to smooth things over:

"Okay, shut up and concentrate on eating. I think you are more like Xiao Li. Stop talking nonsense and eat quickly."

Murong Yun refused to give in, raised his chin and proudly retorted: "That's incomparable. I am so handsome, how can he compare to me?"

Qian Duoduo shook his head helplessly and smiled to comfort him:

"Okay, okay, our handsome Mr. Murong, please be magnanimous and stop teasing me. Let's eat quickly. Look how scared you are of Xiao Li. She doesn't even dare to pick up the food." After saying that, he laughed, trying to ease the awkward atmosphere, and stepped on Murong Yun under the table.

"Xiao Li, pick up some food and eat."

"Okay, thank you Miss Qian."

However, despite the sumptuous dishes in front of him, Su Sili still seemed a little restrained and did not dare to easily stretch out his chopsticks to pick up other dishes to enjoy.

So he just kept his head down and silently ate the dish in front of him.

At this moment, something he didn't expect happened - a brand new dish suddenly appeared in the empty bowl.

This sudden change surprised him so much that he subconsciously raised his head to find out what was going on.

When he saw the situation clearly, he discovered that it was Murong Yun who was holding a pair of public chopsticks and putting the dish into his bowl with a smile on his face.

I only heard Murong Yun say nonchalantly:

"Don't just stare at the dish in front of you, young man, eat more. We still have a lot of things to do in the afternoon."

Hearing this, Su Sili quickly nodded and said, "Okay! Thank you, Master Murong!"

At this time, Qian Duoduo asked curiously: "Are you going to go into the mountains this afternoon?"

Murong Yun replied, "I want to go there again and take a closer look. I didn't know until I really walked into the mountains and saw that there are indeed a lot of mountain products."

Qian Duoduo then asked with concern: "Will there be any danger?"

Murong Yun waved his hand and said, "Don't worry. We are bringing guards with us this time, so our safety is absolutely guaranteed.

Besides, we have Xiao Li to lead the way for us, so there will definitely be no unexpected situations."

After listening to Murong Yun's explanation, Qian Duoduo's worries were finally alleviated a little, and they all nodded in agreement: "That's good, but don't go too far, and don't go on unfamiliar roads."

“And there are roads he’s not familiar with, you don’t even know, he can draw things in that mountain with his eyes closed.”

"So powerful?" Qian Duoduo was also surprised.

Su Sili said a little embarrassedly: "When I first entered the village, I was a little uncomfortable. It's just that I like to wander around in the mountains when I have nothing to do, so I am more familiar with it than others."

"Yeah, that's pretty impressive too."

Su Sili breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Qian Duoduo could still chat with her so naturally.

Because when they were discussing Brother Qian Yi's problem just now, he had some doubts. If he did anything bad, she would chase him away without hesitation.

so far so good.

Chu Yan sat quietly at the dinner table, his eyes slowly sweeping across the table full of sumptuous dishes, listening to everyone's conversation with his sidelong glance, an indescribable joy welling up in his heart.

Although he was taught since childhood not to talk while eating, this did not affect his love for the lively atmosphere at the dinner table at this moment.

Looking back on his childhood, due to his special status, he almost always ate alone.

He was the only one sitting at the huge dining table. It was quiet and there was no one to talk to or share with him. The time he spent eating alone was long and lonely, as if time had frozen at that moment.

As he grew older, even though he had the opportunity to dine with the emperor, uncle, or empress, the palace etiquette was strict and everyone ate in silence following the rule of "not talking while eating."

However, only Chu Yan himself knew how happy and shocked he was when he sat around the dinner table with Qian Duoduo and the others for the first time.

At that moment, he suddenly realized that he was no longer alone in facing food, but could truly feel the warmth of having someone by his side.

Although Chu Yan seldom took the initiative to participate in discussions during the dinner, and only occasionally interjected a word or two, this alone was enough to make him happy for a long time.

It’s a pity that his usually expressionless face is like a pool of still water, making it difficult for others to detect his true emotional fluctuations.

Moreover, when they chatted, they just exchanged their experiences of encountering things, or occasionally joked like today, and they didn't chat loudly, which made him feel very good, like ordinary people, warm and comfortable.
