“ShenDai JianRen, since you didn't touch him, I showed mercy and only cut your sleeve, if you touched him, I'll break one of your arm, if you dare to hurt him.. I'll take your worthless life!”

“Miss…?”

Feeling the killing intent coming from ShenDai Ying, ShenDai JianRen trembled, and could not help but kneel dumbly on the floor as he saw ShenDai Ying walk into the hall, and still did not have the strength to stand up.

On the other side, Xiao Hua walked up to him and looked down at him from above, muttering nonchalantly.

“Ah, JianRen, you really are a fool, you usually bully the weak by relying on the lady's influence, the lady has been fed up with it for a while, and it was only because the master could not bear to drive you away, but you actually provoked the lady's precious lover today… you really don't know your place!”

Xiao Hua shook her head repeatedly and said.

“JianRen, you know what? Even I wouldn't dare to offend that poor boy so easily. If I touch him, the lady will skin me alive… but you? You're not only unrepentant, but you also brought out the master to threaten her, the lady is too kind for not chopping off your dirty hands!”

“What did you say… lover?”

“Hmph, you won't understand even if I tell you, you'd better hurry up and scram back home and don't embarrass Miss again.”

Saying that, Xiao Hua pulled out a handful of gold coins from her pocket and threw them at his wretched face, then took two steps back in disgust and turned around to run off to find ShenDai Ying.

With ShenDai JianRen's intelligence, there's no way he could understand the status of Lin Xiao in ShenDai Ying's heart. The more fleeting and unattainable their relationship was, the more maddening and irrational it made them.

ShenDai Ying had no way to get together with Lin Xiao, so she cherished every second she spent with him, but this fool, ShenDai JianRen, actually tried to take advantage of his position to bully Lin Xiao, which was like touching one of her only sore spots, not killing the fool on the spot, was already a demonstration of great restraint.

Filled with concern for her lady, Xiao Hua also followed her into the banquet hall, but of course, her presence was always very faint, and no one noticed her…

Finally, the banquet officially started!

The guests went to one of the square tables around the hall and sat down according to the seats that had been arranged.

ShenDai Ying walked all the way to the front of the hall and sat at the most prominent table, sitting beside her was the handsome Prince Cesar, with Princess Pelle right next to him, and as for Cesar's follower…

The table was decorated with exquisite tableware, plates of delicious food were served one after another, the aroma of food wafted through the air, and the atmosphere of the venue became much more cordial.

The king was slow to show up, and although the banquet had already begun, no one was in a hurry to eat, so they simply exchanged pleasantries with their table mates and raised their glasses.

The nobleman's banquet was not just about eating, drinking and dancing. It's more of a means of connecting, a way to enhance relationships, make friends and grow in power in the name of drinking. Dukes, nobles, officials of all sizes, everyone has their own agenda and wanted to take this opportunity to obtain more information.

Like everyone else, ShenDai Ying and Cesar exchanged polite whispers and occasionally chatted with people at their tables as they awaited the king's arrival.

During the conversation, ShenDai Ying looked a little distracted, faking a smile to cope with the conversation while stealing glances at another youth, wanting to know how he was doing.

Unlike those rich kids, Lin Xiao, a commoner, was placed in an out-of-the-way corner, sharing a table with some young children of the nobility.

He was not unsatisfied about that.

Sitting in a corner and not drawing attention to himself was the result he wanted most, saving him a lot of trouble, and most importantly, he could eat carefree without worrying about anyone else's line of sight!

This table was full of true royal cuisine!

The best roast meats, exquisite dishes, fragrant pastries, gourmet food, the fine liquor, along with an accompanying maid, it was simply heaven on earth!

“Elena, how wonderful it would be if someday you could make such a sumptuous meal for me too!” Lin Xiao looked at the table of delicacies, his eyes glowed, and he had long since left behind the unpleasant encounter he had just had!”

As the saying goes, to capture a man's heart, you must first capture his stomach, and this is something that ShenDai Ying can do ten thousand times better than Elena.

Not only is she a good cook that can make delicious dishes for Lin Xiao, she can even invite him to the royal banquet to taste first-rate dishes made by national-level chefs. In contrast, Elena can only buy ordinary ingredients from market vendors with her tight pocket money, and then use her poor cooking skills to make a table of dark dishes that can almost poison people.

It's clear which is better and which is worse.

“Hmph, isn't it just cooking? As long as I learn seriously, I can do it well too!” Elena stood behind Lin Xiao and muttered with disdain.

Because of her low status as a servant, she did not have a seat and could only stand beside Lin Xiao, like the servants of other nobles, always at the command of their master.

“Oh? You can do it if you're serious?”

When everyone else was reserved and didn't start eating, Lin Xiao stabbed a roast chicken leg with his fork first, took a bite, and then smacked his mouth.

“It's really good, much better than the chicken legs we buy at the market!”

“Oh, is that so.” Since Elena was not qualified to be at the table, she did not have cutlery and could not eat, so she could only watch him, and her tone was very unkind.

“Really! Taste it if you don't believe me, you love roast chicken legs, don't you? I'm sure you'll like it.” Lin Xiao smilingly proposed.

“Taste? How, I don't have any cutlery…”

“That's okay. Here, this is for you.”

Lin Xiao stabbed his own bitten chicken leg, ignoring the baffled stares of his table mates, and raised his hand to hand it to Elena.

Elena was stunned, thankful for Lin Xiao's gesture of sharing the food, and did not bother to be polite with him, reaching out to take the fork and preparing to enjoy the food.

The roasted chicken leg is her favorite food, she used to frequent the roasted chicken store in Winterless City, but compared to the ordinary roasted chicken bought outside, the royal family's secret roasted chicken leg must be even better! So, what exactly does that taste like? How good is it, really?

Just as Elena reached out expectantly, Lin Xiao suddenly took his fork away.

“Don't take it away… Come, I'll feed you.”

Hearing this, Elena's face blushed red!

“What did you… say?”

Peh!

Elena gritted her teeth in anger, but didn't dare to flare up due to the occasion, so she could only poke Lin Xiao in the back of the head with an icy stare.

“Elena, this is my fork, it's my cutlery, if you take it, what am I going to do? So, just take a bite and taste it.” The first time Lin Xiao acted like a master, refusing to share his utensils with a lowly maid, and instead chose to 'feed' her.

He said, while shaking the chicken leg on his fork, gesturing for Elena to open her mouth to take a bite.

“Tsk… damn pervert!” Elena cursed in her mind.

This guy didn't really want her to taste the food, he wanted to tease her on purpose!

The public feeding play and whatnot is really in bad taste!

But… but, that chicken leg looks really good!

The smell of the sauce was overflowing, the grease shimmering, and just by putting her nose close to it, Elena smelled a rich meat aroma, several times better than the chicken legs she usually buys on the street, making her fingers tingle, so it must taste several times better too!

Elena originally wanted to ignore him, and she didn't want to bend over and play a shameful feeding game with him, but she couldn't control her appetite, and finally she couldn't resist the temptation, and her mouth took the lead and bit into it!

“Okay then… you better hold it steady.” The first time I saw it, I had to go back to the house.”

Her left hand brushed her obstructive hair back, her right arm supporting her large heavy breasts, Elena bent down slightly, leaned over with her small mouth, pressed her lips against the chicken leg, and like a kitten, cautiously and carefully bit off a small piece of chicken leg meat with her teeth, then immediately took it in her mouth, ignoring the increasingly peculiar gaze of the people at the table, chewing it happily with a red face.

Shameful, it's too shameful!

A Demon King, reduced to such a state that she would humbly bend over for a bite to eat, begging like a kitten for her master's feeding… Lin Xiao is such a big pervert! A complete scum of the earth! It's so hateful that he could think of such a shameful way to humiliate himself!

Elena had a burst of curses, deeply indignant at the perversion of this master of hers.

She had clearly made up her mind that even if she starved to death! Even if she died outside! She would never bow down to Lin Xiao again, to be a dignified demon king! But…

But… hehe, these chicken legs are delicious!

Shame and humiliation, in the end, could not go against the power of food. The crispy chicken skin that melted in your mouth, and the smooth leg meat was tender and delicious, seemingly marinated, so it was packed full of flavor, and the more you chewed, the more flavorful it became.

A small piece of meat was chewed hard by Elena's white teeth, and before he had a chance to savor it, he couldn't wait to swallow it, but it still left a rich aftertaste and lingered on her lips.

“Delicious!”

Elena blinked, licked the oil on her lips with the tip of her tongue, and smacked her lips, casting a fiery gaze at Lin Xiao.

“Is it really that good?” Lin Xiao asked giddily.

“Un, it's really delicious!”

“So, do you still want some more?”

“I-I d-do…”

Noticing Lin Xiao's smile, Elena suddenly had a sense of foreboding.

“Okay, since you want to eat it, I'll give it to you! However, you have to promise me one thing!”

As expected, since this guy took the initiative to give her good food and be so nice to her, he didn't have good intentions!

But…

“W-what is it?”
