Zhao Junyao found her brimming self-confidence both amusing and exasperating.
"You even know how to rid the people of a scourge? Truly clever!"
Xia Ruqing was full of pride.
"That's because... I am indeed very clever!"
Zhao Junyao was speechless. This little thing! He really didn't know what to say to her!
He patted her shoulder and said with a smile, "Get up. I'm hungry. Accompany me for some supper!"
Xia Ruqing's eyes instantly lit up.
"Supper? Great!"
When it came to food, she was always so excited.
The displeasure that had been accumulating in Zhao Junyao's heart all day was dispelled by just a few words from Xia Ruqing.
Li Shengan stood at the doorway. He heard food being ordered inside and Xia Jieyu serving the Emperor, their meal clearly a lively and enjoyable one.
