Beastly Fēi That Goes Against the Heaven: Coerced by the Huáng Shū - Chapter 180

The tight control exercised by Xiao Chen over the palace didn’t terrify Jing Yue until this moment.

Holy crap, where did all these guardsmen come from?!

Mama…what a misery!

On the third day, Jing Yue determined to give up the thought to escape. She couldn’t go out anyway, so Jing Yue decided to cook meals with Yin Qiao instead of staying at home for nothing. She picked more than half of the lotus flowers which were in full bloom in the Lotus Garden.

Xiao Chen stretched himself with a sigh of relief after dealing with the affairs. “What is Her Majesty doing?” He looked at Xing Yi beside him and asked.

“Her Majesty is…” Xing Yi was going to say something when suddenly he heard the yelling of Jing Yue outside the study.

“Xiao Chen… Xiao Chen!!” Jing Yue walked in joyfully with her hands holding a bowl of something. After a while of pause, Xiao Chen found that Jing Yue had come over and put a bowl of colorful food on his table.

“This is…?” Xiao Chen was a little confused. He looked up at Jing Yue with the eyes full of confusion, wondering what was inside the bowl.

“This is the lotus porridge made by myself. Have a taste.” Jing Yue looked at Xiao Chen and said excitedly.

Hearing Jing Yue’s invitation, Xing Yi who was standing next to Xiao Chen grew green with terror.

“Really? You made it for me?” Xiao Chen smiled at Jing Yue, his eyes slowly shining, on hearing her words.

“Of course!” Jing Yue smiled back and nodded to Xiao Chen firmly.

Xiao Chen looked surprised and began stirring the colorful lotus porridge with a spoon. Before stopping to eat, he looked at Jing Yue again. Jing Yue looked quite excited seeing Xiao Chen’s movement, with an expecting expression on her face. She waved her hand and instigated him to have a taste.

On the contrary, Xing Yi was terrified by Xiao Chen’s movement, yelling in his heart.

‘Your Highness, don’t eat! Your will die of it!’

Unnoticing the expression of Xing Yi, Xiao Chen put a spoonful of porridge in his mouth calmly with a pleasant smile hanging at the corner of his mouth and his eyes full of happiness. However, the smile at the corner of his mouth froze after three seconds. Then his look turned very weird.

“How about it? Does it taste good?” Jing Yue stared at Xiao Chen expectedly.

“Cough…cough…cough” Xiao Chen put down the spoon tremblingly. He tried hard to refrain from vomiting and to swallow the disgusting porridge.

“Good…It tastes good” Xiao Chen said in a trembling voice.

“Really?! I know my cooking skill is unparalleled!” Jing Yue was so excited that she immediately took the spoon used by Xiao Chen just now, scooped up a spoonful of porridge and said, “I haven’t eaten it myself. Let me have a taste.”

“Don’t…” Jing Yue had already put the spoon into her mouth before Xiao Chen trying to stop her.

After three seconds…

Jing Yue’s face suddenly changed; she hurried out of the study and began vomiting with her hands holding the railing.

“Why does it taste like shit?!” Jing Yue kept throwing up. Xiao Chen couldn’t stand it anymore and retched as well. Standing aside and watching them throwing up, Xing Yi, whose heart was trembling, felt himself so lucky that it wasn’t him who ate the porridge.

The porridge on the table was way more poisonous than poison to him now.

From then on, Jing Yue was prohibited from entering the kitchen. However, Jing Yue herself didn’t give up trying. She was determined to cook a bowl of delicious lotus porridge. In the next few days, Jing Yue picked all the left lotus flowers in the Lotus Garden.
