Chapter 313 [Awkward Lunch]

Chen Lingling frowned, but still didn't push back hypocritically, "It's better to be obedient than to be respectful."

"Sit down, Miao Yu serves tea." Qu Jingwan greeted with a smile.

Huo Yuying carried An'er out of the inner hall, Xuanyuan Heming immediately ran over to hug An'er, "An'er, do you miss the emperor?"

"Sister Mei!" An'er struggled to get off in his arms, stretching out her little hand towards Chen Lingling.

An'er pursed her lips and wanted to cry, "I want sister Mei to hug me!"

Chen Lingling took off her plush vest, got up and walked over to hug An'er.

Huo Yuying laughed helplessly, "Why do you like being hugged by sister Mei?"

"My sister doesn't understand either. Everyone else is afraid of my sister, so why isn't An'er afraid?"

Chen Lingling hugged An'er and sat on the chair, and tidied up the clothes that An'er had messed up when she struggled.

An'er raised her head and looked at her, "Sister is suffering, suffering."

"Bitter?" Qu Jingwan laughed, "What do little girls know?"

An'er caressed Chen Lingling's cheek, her eyebrows furrowed tightly, "Sister Mei is not happy."

Chen Lingling paused for peeling the lychees, and touched An'er's face with a light smile, "An'er really knows a lot."

Xuanyuan Jiaye was sitting with a chair away from her, just looking sideways at the white-haired woman. The slender side face was very skinny, and the long eyelashes blinked. She has an unusually mysterious feeling, which is mostly related to her white hair.

The lunch was similar to what was eaten at the palace banquet back then, the only difference was that in the past, Chen Lingling drank fruit wine and Xuanyuan Jiaye drank, but now, it was reversed.

The strong wine was drunk by Chen Lingling like white water, as if it had no taste, her face didn't blush or her heart skipped a beat.

"Sister-in-law, when did you develop your drinking capacity?" Xuanyuan Heming asked in surprise.

Chen Lingling turned her head to look at him, and only then did she realize that Xuanyuan Heming had been calling her Emperor's Sister-in-Law since the first meeting, but she did not refuse. In their eyes, it seemed that this way of addressing her was a matter of course.

But now, everything has changed.

"I have always liked wine, but I don't drink it all the time. Now that the new year is approaching and the weather is cold, it's okay to drink something to warm up." She deliberately bit down on the word 'chen'.

Xuanyuan Heming also reacted immediately, lowered his head in embarrassment and stopped talking.

"Let's eat quickly, we can talk later." Qu Jingwan hurriedly smoothed things over.

Miao Yu lowered her voice and said: "Grand Concubine, Empress Empress is here."

Qu Jingwan was taken aback, then looked at Chen Lingling, "Move over there and sit beside the emperor."

Chen Lingling frowned, and before she could ask anything, the notification sounded at the door, "The empress is here!"

Xuanyuan Jiaye frowned immediately, and then quietly moved the empty chair beside him to his side.

Xuanyuan Heming also sat down on the other side of Xuanyuan Jiaye very quickly. In this way, Xuanyuan Jiaye was seated on the left and right, and Chen Lingling also sat down helplessly. She naturally understood Qu Jingwan's thoughts.

If changing seats can cause trouble for others, it’s okay to try.

When Yuan Shengmin came in wearing a phoenix robe, he saw Xuanyuan Heming holding vegetables for a man and a woman.

"The emperor is here?" she asked in surprise.

Xuanyuan Heming smiled, "Ah, Princess Qi is here, we are having lunch together, do you want to come together?"

"Miao Yu, hurry up and fill up the bowls and chopsticks. I don't know that the queen will come, so I didn't prepare anything extra." Qu Jingwan greeted her as she entered with a smile.

Yuan Shengmin was made uncomfortable by Qu Jingwan's sentence of "excessive", and his face was a little bit uneasy, but he couldn't say anything because the emperor was here.

"Your Majesty." Yuan Shengmin walked up to Xuanyuan Jiaye, glanced at the people on both sides of him, but hesitated to speak.

Xuanyuan Jiaye didn't even lift his head, and swept the wine glass in front of Chen Lingling intentionally or unintentionally, frowning once watching her drinking.

Dan'er sneered at this moment: "General Yongling, please move your seat. The empress is still pregnant with a dragon fetus, so she can't just stand there forever."
