While the two were talking, the waiter opened the door and came pushing a small wooden cart with four layers of white porcelain plates on it.

"Sir, the food is ready."

The waiter brought all the dishes to the table. Bu Ji couldn't resist his greed, so he picked up a spoon and scooped up a meatball. He took a bite and let out a cry, scalding his lips.

She was speechless and looked at Li Ji with her mouth open.

Li Ji pinched her cheeks and forced her to spit out what was in her mouth. Half of the meatball fell on the table with a plop.

Bu Ji obediently half opened his mouth, stuck out a piece of red tongue, and spoke incoherently.

"I'm happy. I'm happy."

"It's just red..."

Li Ji took a look and didn't know what was going on. He actually leaned over and gently touched her lips with his fingertips, then let go.

This action was so natural that Bu Ji was stunned for a while. When he came to his senses, he was surprised.

Doesn't he care about the difference between men and women?

Don’t people here often say that men and women should not be intimate with each other, otherwise there will be intimate contact between men and women.

Even when couples walk on the streets outside, it is rare for them to hold hands or pull each other's sleeves.

Even if there are, they are just newly married boys and girls who can't wait to stick together every day.

She actually liked Master Jingyun in her heart, so she lowered her head quietly and her cheeks turned red.

The waiter at the side said with a smile.

"The young master and the young lady are really in love."

"We are not, not..."

Bu Ji waved her hands to deny it and glanced awkwardly at Master Jingyun next to her. Like a girl with something on her mind, she only glanced at him stealthily and didn't dare to look him in the eye openly.

She thought to herself that the waiter thought they were husband and wife, which meant they looked like a couple.

Isn't it often shown in those TV dramas that the male and female protagonists walking on the street are recognized as a newlywed couple by vendors at roadside stalls, and later they do end up getting married.

Maybe it's the same with her and Master Jingyun.

Since God brought her to this time and space, there must be a reason for her to come. If she is the heroine, then Master Jingyun must be the hero.

Li Ji remained silent, waved his hand and asked the waiter to go out.

Bu Ji bit her lip and glanced at him out of the corner of her eye. Seeing him staring at her, she felt even more embarrassed to eat.

Li Ji seemed to sigh, picked up the chopsticks, picked up several dishes in one breath, and placed them one by one on the plate in front of her.

Bu Ji smiled, picked up the chopsticks and started eating.

"Oh~~~"

The long, teasing drawl came out of nowhere.

A handsome man with very exotic features, wearing chef's clothes and holding a cooking apron in his hand, walked in through the door swayingly.

He sat on the long bench openly, looking at Li Ji and then at Bu Ji.

"Master Jingyun, long time no see."

He looked at the silver mask on Li Ji's face with interest. After so many years, he finally saw him appear as Jing Yun again.

I guess it’s because of the little girl next to him.

He looked at Bu Ji carefully. No matter how he looked at her, he felt that she was not the daughter of an ordinary family. She had a cold and noble aura about her.

He was a little confused. If she was a daughter of an official family, why didn't Li Ji meet her directly in front of the emperor? Wouldn't it be more troublesome if he showed up wearing a silver mask?

Li Ji treated him like air and slowly picked up some food for Bu Ji who was standing beside him. When Bu Ji saw someone coming, he put down his chopsticks and took out a handkerchief to wipe his mouth.

"Why did you come in without changing your clothes? You smell like the kitchen."

Li Ji became angry when he saw Yelu Wuyun. King Yelu had sent several groups of people to look for him, but he hid and refused to come out to see the envoys.

"I'm cooking for you and this young lady. I came to take a look. It's not easy for you to eat alone."

"It's such a rare thing, how can I wait until I change my clothes before coming back?"

Yelu Wuyun said this with a smile, and actually took out a pair of chopsticks from his pocket and started eating without any hesitation.

Li Ji coughed twice and looked at him seriously.

Yelu Wuyun stopped using the chopsticks in his hand, looked at Bu Ji and said.

"You look frail, young lady. You can't finish all the food. What's wrong with letting me eat some?"

"I made all these dishes myself. Without me, you wouldn't be able to please the young lady today."

After he finished speaking, he drank a bowl of soup, wiped his mouth, and glanced at Bu Ji who was standing next to Li Ji for several times.

Li Ji kicked him hard from under the table and said with a smile.

"Where are you looking? Look back to your kitchen."

He kicked Yelu Wuyun without any more strength, causing him to grimace in pain, cry out in pain and mutter.

"I just think this young lady looks familiar. I wonder where I have seen her before?"

Bu Ji raised his head and looked at him.

He suddenly realized and clapped his hands.

"Isn't this the daughter of Yushi Bu, the Imperial Censorate? You won the first prize in poetry writing during the Shangsi Festival. I was there at the time and wanted to get to know you, but I didn't expect that you already had a flower protector by your side."

"Hey, didn't Liang Xing win the first place in the imperial examination? You guys..."

He even knew about Liang Xing and Bu Ji, but he didn't continue talking because he was kicked again, and this kick was more painful than the previous one.

He closed his mouth in pain and looked at Li Ji, only to realize that his words had offended some people.

Yes, times have changed and Miss Bu’s lover has changed.

Mentioning the old people again is somewhat disrespectful to the people today.

The air around seemed to be stagnant, and even the sound of breathing became quieter.

"Eat vegetables."

Li Ji picked up a piece of green vegetables with chopsticks, put it in Bu Ji's bowl, and said in a deep voice.

Bu Ji lowered his head and could only pretend that he didn't hear what was said.

"My name is Yelu Wuyun. People call me the most handsome man in Yelu Country. You should have heard of my name."

Yelu Wuyun is very outgoing and talkative.

He seems to have a very good relationship with Young Master Jingyun and they are close friends. Even if Young Master Jingyun doesn't talk to him, he can find topics to talk about on his own.

Bu Ji felt that the name sounded familiar. After thinking about it, he seemed to have heard Li Er and Yan Zhi mention it before.

There was an eighth prince in the Yelu Kingdom who had been a hostage in the Chujin Kingdom. He was as close to the emperor as a brother, and that’s why he was called this prince.

She laughed at that time and said, there is a prince named Wuyun, he must be very dark.

Unexpectedly, I had the chance to meet him in person.

"Bu Ji."

She said her name as a greeting to him.

Yelu Wuyun responded and observed her and Li Ji's every move with a smile.

After he was no longer a hostage, he did not return to the Yelu Kingdom, but traveled around the Chu and Jin Kingdoms, where he became an apprentice to a famous chef and learned cooking skills.

In addition, he knew how to cook Yelu food, and he integrated the two into one to create his own style, which made him quite popular in the capital.
