Yan Xiaoxi did not bother with Nangong Lin and continued to walk forward. Suddenly, she stopped in her tracks. Unknowingly, Nangong Lin had blocked her path and stood in front of her.
"Are you blaming This King for suspecting you?" Nangong Lin probed as he understood why Yan Xiaoxi was so angry.
"I don't care." Yan Xiaoxi turned her head and prepared to leave from the other direction.
Nangong Lin strode forward and once again placed himself horizontally in front of Yan Xiaoxi. He asked, "Did a woman compare me to Bei Bai Xi?"
"Yes." Yan Xiaoxi looked at Nangong Lin with a dull expression as she answered truthfully.
"Then which one of us do you like the most?"
"Brother Bei." Yan Xiaoxi blurted out.
That's right, Brother Bei had truly treated her very well and was very considerate and gentle. If it wasn't for the treasure, she wouldn't have come back with Nangong Lin!
Nangong Lin blushed with shame. Presumably, only Yan Xiaoxi alone would dare to say that another man was better than him in front of him.
"Why didn't the woman go with Behring?" Nangong Lin continued asking.
Yan Xiaoxi pursed her lips as she thought to herself. She was also thinking about it, but the temptation of the treasure was much greater.
When she found the treasure deposit and went to find Brother Bei, she would leave Nangong Lin and live a blissful life with Bei Bai Xi. How nice would that be!
"I've thought about it as well, isn't little Lin Lin Xi's husband?"
"Xi Er, think about it. You did think about leaving with Bei Bai Xi, but in the end, you chose Ben Wang. This proves that your heart is still with Ben Wang." Nangong Lin was filled with pride as he said this. It seemed that he still had a certain position in Yan Xiaoxi's heart.
"So what?" Yan Xiaoxi did not believe Nangong Lin's nonsense.
"This King had his doubts towards Xi Er, but in reality, I have always trusted you." From start to finish, Nangong Lin knew that Liu Zhixue was lying. As long as she was lying, she would intentionally keep her eyes open, not blinking at all.
"Little Lin Lin's heart is with me?"
"Of course." Yan Xiaoxi finally smiled when she heard the answer. She didn't know why, but her heart was filled with happiness.
However, in the next moment, Yan Xiaoxi's attitude changed as she asked, "But little Linlin still suspects me."
Nangong Lin was at a loss for words. He could not help but feel puzzled. Previously, this woman was not that smart and was easily fooled. Why did she become so difficult to deal with now?
But how could he know that to Yan Xiaoxi, when she was happy, she wouldn't care about anything and would always take a step back. If she was angry, she would definitely care about something else.
"A hundred plates of green bean cake." Immediately, Yan Xiaoxi revealed her true nature.
Only now did Nangong Lin realize that the reason this woman did so many things was because of the green bean cake.
Something that could be solved with food was not a big problem for Nangong Lin. In such a large palace, no matter how much Yan Xiaoxi ate, she would not be able to eat to death.
"Deal." The two of them clapped their hands to form an alliance, and they smoothly reached an agreement.
Yan Xiaoxi was in a great mood after receiving her meal. All the unhappiness in her mind had long been forgotten.
She suddenly grabbed onto Nangong Lin's arm, a big smile on her face as she said, "Little Linlin is really great."
Nangong Lin smiled lightly, lovingly looking at Yan Xiaoxi who had a smile that was like a flower. This woman's smile seemed to have a certain charm to it, causing people to feel happy.
"Since I have fulfilled one of Xi Er's requests, can I also fulfill one of my requests as well?"
"What?" Yan Xiaoxi asked doubtfully.
"This King is hungry." Nangong Lin spat out these words without any hesitation.
Hungry? Yan Xiaoxi drooped her head as she looked at Nangong Lin beside her. Being lifted by him, she unconsciously rubbed her belly. She seemed to be a little hungry.
That way, they could eat together.
Yan Xiaoxi truly liked Nangong Lin more and more. After the two of them had been together for so long, their stomachs had almost become one. Hungry together and eating together, how great was that!
Actually, Yan Xiaoxi really enjoyed the feeling of having someone accompany her to eat. That way, the food that came out of her mouth would become even more fragrant.
What Yan Xiaoxi did not know was that the hunger that she understood in her mind was completely different from what Nangong Lin said it was.
"Then let's go eat together." As she spoke, Yan Xiaoxi impatiently pulled Nangong Lin towards the direction of the room.
Nangong Lin smiled without a word and followed behind Yan Xiaoxi. Because his food also needed to be taken care of in the room, he couldn't help but quicken his pace as the two of them quickly moved towards the room.
Very quickly, a magnificent palace appeared before their eyes. This was the residence of Nangong Lin when he was young. Ever since he moved out of the palace, it had always been empty. Occasionally, someone would come to clean it.
"Wow, we're here." Yan Xiaoxi happily pushed open the door. She went in first, while Nangong Lin followed and closed the door.
"Did little Lin Lin Lin send someone to prepare something to eat?" Yan Xiaoxi sat down on a stool and looked at Nangong Lin expectantly.
Nangong Xiaoxiao smiled charmingly as she approached Yan Xiaoxi and stopped in front of her. "Woman, This King will feed you immediately."
Yan Xiaoxi was stunned and slightly frowned. She immediately realized that something was wrong. She pointed at Nangong Lin in front of her and asked, "Little Linlin, what are you planning to do?"
"Here's some food for you."
"Food, where is it?" Yan Xiaoxi looked around and didn't see anything to eat.
"In front of you."
"In front of me?"
Yan Xiaoxi continued to look around, but she did not see any food. She was very sensitive to food, even if she did not have to look, she would be able to smell it.
However, after she entered the room, she knew that there was nothing to eat inside, and even now, no one had entered.
Where was the food?
Suddenly, she looked at Nangong Lin who was in front of her. His tall and imposing body blocked her line of sight. There was a smile on his face and his expression was completely different from before.
"You don't mean food. "Is that you, Little Linlin?" At this moment, Yan Xiaoxi finally understood what Nangong Lin meant.
"Of course." Nangong Lin smiled mockingly. They were each other's food.
"Stop joking around." Yan Xiaoxi's entire body shrank back as she widened her eyes in disbelief.
"Do you think This King is joking?" Nangong Lin said with a serious expression.
Yan Xiaoxi shook her head and leapt up from the stool. She hurriedly took a few steps back and said, "I don't eat human flesh."
Nangong Xiaoxiao smiled charmingly as she approached Yan Xiaoxi. Her appearance was like that of a big bad wolf trying to pounce onto a little white rabbit.
