Chapter 1512

The other dessert was walnut layer pastry. It was crispy, fragrant, sweet, and soft with a single bite.

When Xiao Ru took the first bite, she almost swallowed her tongue.

"Young miss, this is simply too delicious, the emperor will definitely love it!" She wolfed down a piece and licked her fingers, wishing she could eat more.

Chen Ning giggled, "Don't praise me, there's still a plate left for you. Slowly eat it, but don't swallow your tongue."

She placed the plate of walnut layer pastry and steamed buns into the food box and walked out.

"Young miss, are you going to send the dessert to the emperor?" Xiao Ru's mouth was stuffed with the pastry as she spoke in a slurred voice, "This servant will go with you."

"No need, you can stay here and slowly eat. I'll go by myself. Could it be that in this palace, you're afraid that I'll grow wings and fly away?" She smiled as she walked out and headed for the royal study.

Who would have thought that when she arrived at the royal study, she would find nothing.

Not only did she not see Mo Chuan, Xiao Si was also not there. She asked the guards at the door of the royal study and they said that Mo Chuan had left at noon and had not returned.

Strange, Mo Chuan was not in the royal study. Where did he go?

Chen Ning held the food box and slowly walked towards the Guan Yu Palace.

The sky had already darkened at this time and the palace was already lit up. There was light in the palace as she walked alone.

Although Mo Chuan was not in the palace, there were guards protecting her, so she was not worried about her safety at all. She was only thinking about Mo Chuan.

Returning to the Guan Yu Palace, she still did not see Mo Chuan. Xiao Ru came out to greet her. Seeing the food box in her hands, she said in a curious voice, "Young miss, didn't you go to send food to the emperor? Does the emperor not like it? "

Chen Ning shook her head and gave the food box to Xiao Ru.

"If this food gets cold, it won't taste good. If you can still eat it, then eat it all."

Xiao Ru was filled with joy as she took the food box and said, "Many thanks young miss."

She happily carried the food box back to her room to enjoy the dessert. Chen Ning looked at her back and her lips couldn't help curling into a smile.

It was good to be this carefree like Xiao Ru. As long as there was delicious dessert to eat, she would be happy. She was not like Mo Chuan who always had so many matters to take care of and so many things to worry about.

She returned to her room and picked up a book to sit under the lamp, reading while waiting for Mo Chuan to come back.

In two days, she would follow Gu Qingze to the Miracle Physician Valley, so she especially cherished the time she had with Mo Chuan. She hoped that she could wait until Mo Chuan came back. Even if she didn't say anything, just seeing him was enough.

But things did not go as she wished. She held the book and only read a few pages before unconsciously falling asleep on the table. by.

What she didn't notice was that the incense burner in the corner of the room was emitting a faint fragrance.

Waiting until she fell asleep, Xiao Ru quietly opened the door and walked in. Seeing Chen Ning lying on the table, a gentle look flashed on her face. She took a thin blanket and covered Chen Ning with it. Then she walked over to the incense burner in the corner and extinguished the incense before quietly leaving.

The incense in the incense burner was specially given to her by Mo Chuan, it had the effect of helping her sleep.

Mo Chuan had already expected that Chen Ning would wait for him, so he thought of this method.
