"You won't. I know you're the best!" Ye Lang said with a smile.
Zhen Xiaoyan pouted. "I'm not good. I won't cook for you. You don't care about me anyway."
"Why should I care about you? I don't have that much time," Ye Lang said directly.
"… Go to hell!" Zhen Xiaoyan said angrily. She didn't appear in front of Ye Lang for the next few days. She seemed to be really angry.
Regarding this, Ye Lang could be said to have no taste for anything! However, this wasn't because Ye Lang was thinking about Zhen Xiaoyan. It was because he couldn't eat Zhen Xiaoyan's food!
Sigh, this fat woman left just like that. I won't be able to eat her food in the future. I'm really not used to it. But this is good too. I'll have to leave her sooner or later. Even without this time, I'll still have to go out and have fun. I'll still have to be separated from her and not be able to eat her food.
It's better to get used to it early. If I had known this would happen, I would have asked her to prepare some stock for me!
Speaking of which, when the participating students set off, the Emperor would hold a banquet in the palace to send off the students. This meant that Ye Lang would still see Zhen Xiaoyan, who might still be angry.
And at that time, many people would be there. Not only the participating students and their families, but also some officials of the imperial court who wanted to capture this group of talents.
This was also a tradition. No one knew when it started, but this tradition was becoming more and more grand!
Time passed by unknowingly. Today was the day the students would leave. Everyone was ready to leave, right in front of the palace!
"I knew this place wouldn't be fun. I should have gone to sleep!" Ye Lang stood in the crowd and yawned, as if he hadn't woken up yet.
"Don't you dare!" The Seventh Princess and Ye Lanyu lectured him from each side.
Today was the day they were leaving. How could they miss an important person like Ye Lang? If he didn't come to see them off, they might not leave!
"If I dared, I wouldn't be here!" Ye Lang said helplessly.
"At least you know what's good for you!" The two girls said at the same time.
"I'll go find the fat woman. She seems to be still angry!" Ye Lang didn't know if he was looking for a chance to escape or if he really cared about Zhen Xiaoyan's feelings. He left Ye Lanyu and the Seventh Princess and walked towards Zhen Xiaoyan.
At that time, Zhen Xiaoyan was looking at Ye Lang. When she saw him walking over, a hint of joy appeared in her eyes. From the looks of it, one could tell that she wasn't angry!
However, Ye Lang didn't notice this. He only felt that Zhen Xiaoyan's anger hadn't dissipated after disappearing for so many days.
"Fat woman, are you still angry?" Ye Lang asked.
"Ah!" Zhen Xiaoyan was stunned. She immediately shook her head. "No, I'm not angry. Why would you think I'm angry?"
"I haven't seen you for so many days. If you're not angry, then what are you?" Ye Lang asked doubtfully.
Zhen Xiaoyan looked at Ye Lang and softly asked, "What will you do if I get angry?"
Will he care about me? She didn't say it out loud because she was thick-skinned, unlike a certain person who was shameless, oh, no, slow!
"I will apologize. I'm just coaxing you! "
"Really?!" Zhen Xiaoyan exclaimed happily. However, this only lasted for a moment.
Ye Lang nodded and replied, "Yes! Otherwise, I won't be able to eat your food anymore! "
"Hmph! I should've known that you would say that! "Zhen Xiaoyan immediately became unhappy.
"Hehe, don't be angry, fat woman. Remember to take care of yourself when you go for training. I don't want to lose you." Ye Lang reminded her. This sentence came from his heart. He didn't want to lose Zhen Xiaoyan. However, the reason was worth investigating.
"I know, I know. You still don't want to lose me, your life-long rice cooker!" Zhen Xiaoyan nodded and said clearly.
"No matter what, remember, you're mine. Nothing can happen to you!" Ye Lang said with a smile.
"Ptui! Ptui! Who's yours? Don't talk nonsense. I still have to get married. "Zhen Xiaoyan blushed and hit Ye Lang. She seemed to be acting coquettishly …
"You're my life-long rice cooker. You said it yourself just now." Ye Lang waved his hand and said indifferently.
"Hmph! I'm ignoring you! Alright, I'll give you this year's food while there's still time. "Zhen Xiaoyan said as she took out the prepared food from her dimensional bag.
“？？ A year? Did you really make it? " Ye Lang said in surprise. His hands were not idle either. He took the food from Zhen Xiaoyan and put it into his dimensional bag.
"Yes! I've been helping you in the kitchen these days. It wasn't easy to make so much. I don't know if it's enough. " Zhen Xiaoyan nodded. However, she did not slow down or stop handing the food over.
Ye Lang understood now. It turned out that Zhen Xiaoyan was not angry at him these days. She had been preparing food for him. The reason might be because of what he said. He asked her to prepare a year's worth of food!
Looking at Zhen Xiaoyan's smiling face, Ye Lang suddenly felt ashamed. It seemed like he did not care much about her other than food, but she was always thinking about him.
Wasn't he being too heartless?
"Fat woman …" Ye Lang looked at Zhen Xiaoyan with watery eyes.
"What's wrong? Do you want to ask why I didn't go over? You were chatting with your sister and the seventh princess, so I couldn't go over. I wanted to wait until you were done. I didn't expect you to come over yourself. " Zhen Xiaoyan said blissfully. She was very happy that Ye Lang took the initiative to come over.
Perhaps it was not a big deal to Ye Lang, but it was a completely different concept to her.
If Ye Lang did not come over to look for her … She would have taken the initiative to look for him and give him the food in her hands. However, she felt that if Ye Lanyu and the seventh princess were there, she would have to stay behind.
All of this showed one thing. She was not angry at Ye Lang at all. At least, it would not last overnight. After a good night's sleep, no matter how angry she was, she would be able to get rid of it.
"Oh, actually, you don't have to be afraid of them. They like you very much." Ye Lang recalled that Zhen Xiaoyan would be restrained in front of Ye Lanyu and the others. It was as if she was afraid of something.
"I know, but our identities are different," Zhen Xiaoyan said softly.
"What does it matter?" Ye Lang did not understand.
"In short, it matters. However, I will soon be able to shorten the distance between us. I will become a powerful alchemist." Zhen Xiaoyan clenched her small fist and said very seriously.
“？？” Ye Lang did not understand. He only knew that Zhen Xiaoyan had recently paid a little more attention to alchemy. She did not spend most of her time on cooking like before.
He also felt strange. Why did Zhen Xiaoyan suddenly say that she wanted to participate in the competition? Now, it seemed that it had something to do with this.
"If you want to become powerful, I can teach you."
"No, I want to be famous. Being famous is beneficial!"
"Do you care about this?" Ye Lang understood that Zhen Xiaoyan did not care about this at all.
"I care!" Zhen Xiaoyan had never thought about it, but this was the only thing she could say at the moment.
"Is there a point?" Ye Lang waved his hand.
"Yes!"
"I think you will only be popular for a short period of time. Let's wait and see." Ye Lang did not think that Zhen Xiaoyan would persevere because this was not suitable for her. However, she was also quite talented.
"Hmph! If you dare to look down on me, I will show you! "Zhen Xiaoyan pouted and said unwillingly.
As the two were talking, the food continued to be passed around, leaving the students at the side a little speechless. How could there be more? How much did you make?
Of course, for now, everyone only paid a little attention to this and quickly returned to greeting and congratulating.
Don't understand?
At this time, most of the people were congratulating these students and their families, saying that they were really powerful and could enter this trial and so on.
Take Ye Lanyu for example. She was currently being annoyed by a group of people. She wanted to pull Ye Lang over to be her shield, but Ye Lang was busy picking up his food for the next year, so he had no time to pay attention to her.
Because of this, Ye Lanyu and the Seventh Princess separated. The two were not on good terms to begin with. Without Ye Lang, the Seventh Princess had already left.
She also had her own people to deal with. She was a princess and also the most respected among this group of students. Naturally, she received attention.
Time continued …
After waiting for a long time, today's main dish was finally on the table. The Emperor had appeared!
"Everyone, today is your …"
Just as Ye Lang had imagined, there would always be some polite nonsense in such an occasion. The only difference was the length of time. This time, the Emperor's time was not considered long, but it was definitely not short.
"Now, let's start the feast for the future pillars of our empire!"
"I was waiting for you to say that!" Ye Lang pulled Zhen Xiaoyan and quickly met up with Ye Lanyu. They found a place to sit down and eat this farewell meal. It would probably be a long time before they could see each other again.
This farewell meal was also very simple. It was estimated that it would not take more than half an hour. It was a simple banquet.
"Strange, where's Little Seven?" Ye Lang felt that it was a little strange that he could not find the Seventh Princess in the end.
"I don't know. She was not there just now. The princes and princesses are also gone. They should be inside." Ye Lanyu did not know about this tradition. Nobody knew about something that happened once every ten years. Moreover, she was still a child ten years ago.
"Ye Lang, this dish has a strange taste. Let's not eat it!" Zhen Xiaoyan said with a frown after eating a mouthful of the dish.
"Strange taste? What taste? Why can't I feel anything? "Ye Lang and Ye Lanyu could not taste it. Everyone present did not feel anything either.
