Pei Xu felt better as he looked at the obedient Gu Jiaorong.

No man doesn't like the feeling of being in control.

"You are my man. Do I need any reason to come to your room?"

Pei Xu loosened his hand that was pinching his red lips, and there was still warmth on his fingertips.

Gu Jiaorong couldn't refute this and could only curse this evil feudal society in her heart.

"I am naturally happy that Your Majesty is willing to come and see me."

Gu Jiaorong smiled. As an excellent employee, she knew that she couldn't spoil her boss's fun at this time.

Therefore, she did not mention the princess or Shen Zhaohua, but looked at Pei Xu with tenderness in her eyes.

"Has the prince had his meal yet?"

Seeing that Pei Xu didn't say anything, Gu Jiaorong took the initiative to speak.

Thanks to Pei Xu, she was forced to work overtime in the middle of the night, which made her too tired. As a result, she slept for a whole day and night and only drank a bowl of porridge. Now she felt a little hungry when she woke up.

"Never."

Pei Xu looked at her indifferently, as if waiting for her to say something nice to coax him.

It’s a pity that Gu Jiaorong doesn’t have such eyes.

"Then let's have a meal together. I haven't eaten yet either."

Gu Jiaorong had a good plan. Since the prince would dine at her place, the food would definitely be more exquisite, and she would also be able to have a good meal.

The people here are all good at putting down the weak and praising the strong. Although she has been promoted to a concubine for a few days, because of the princess, the people in this mansion treat her very well.

Although Pei Xu didn't like Xie Wanning, he still gave her the respect she deserved.

Now that Shen Zhaohua is in great favor, only Gu Jiaorong is at their mercy.

Gu Jiaorong doesn't have many hobbies, her only hobby is food. But since she came here, she can no longer order takeout or eat out from time to time like in her previous life. She can only eat whatever is delivered to her.

This was a huge blow to Gu Jiaorong.

Now that she finally has the chance to take advantage of Pei Xu, she naturally won't let go of this good opportunity.

Seeing her eyes sparkling, Pei Xu did not refuse.

Since he's here anyway, it doesn't matter where he eats.

"Well, let's set the food."

As soon as Pei Xu finished speaking, Gu Jiaorong went out to pass on the message.

When Pei Xu came to Aunt Gu's place, Fu'an already knew that the prince would have dinner here today, and he had already given the order.

Now, after hearing what Gu Jiaorong said, he immediately made arrangements.

Gu Jiaorong's small courtyard is not big, but it is quiet and elegant. There is also a handsome man opposite her, so Gu Jiaorong was so happy to have this meal.

Pei Xu, on the other hand, didn't move his chopsticks much, but looked at her with a frown on his face.

"Am I mistreating you? Or is the monthly allowance the mansion gives you not enough? You look like you haven't eaten in three days."

Pei Xu had never seen such a bold woman. Even Shen Zhaohua was very careful about her image in front of him.

When Gu Jiaorong heard this, she paused, blinked, and looked at him in confusion.

"Why would the prince think so?"

Gu Jiaorong put the delicious meat into her mouth and argued with a smile.

"The treatment in the palace is excellent, so I've never been hungry. It's just that it's so rare for the prince to have a meal with me. I was so happy, but I didn't know how to express it, so I ate more."

However, Gu Jiaorong did not lie to him. She was indeed happy in her heart. After all, without Pei Xu, she would not have been treated so well.

Pei Xu didn't know what she was thinking. After hearing this, he nodded slightly with satisfaction.

"I will come to accompany you more often when I have time in the future."

He had already said this last night, but this heartless person in front of him had already forgotten it.

After hearing this, Gu Jiaorong laughed even more happily.

"I am truly delighted that Your Highness is willing to come and see me, but I know Your Highness is very busy, so I have a favor to ask of you."

When Pei Xu heard her say this, he thought she would make some excessive demands.

But she was indeed tired last night, so Pei Xu didn't mind if she made a little excessive request.

"what?"

Pei Xu looked at her with great interest, but he only heard her say, "I heard there's a shop in the capital called Xinghua Village, which is well-known and specializes in dim sum. I'm craving dim sum. Could you please bring some for me when Your Highness is free?"

Gu Jiaorong looked at Pei Xu with anticipation, as if she was really craving for the snack.

Pei Xu didn't expect that this was her request, and his eyes suddenly lit up with interest.

"Rong'er, do you know that my promise is worth a thousand gold? You only want a snack, which is really a bit of a loss."

loss?

Gu Jiaorong smiled, she didn't lose out.

Only Gu Jiaorong herself knew that she was not just craving for the snack. If she really liked it, she would just ask Yueyan to go out and buy it.

Although she was just a small concubine, it was still okay to send the maid around her to buy snacks.

She made this request just because she wanted Pei Xu to remember her from time to time.

Although she had no intention of competing for favor, the food was really delicious when Pei Xu was around, and Pei Xu was willing to come again, which also proved that Pei Xu still had some differences towards her. People in the mansion didn't dare to bully her anymore. If there was a chance, Gu Jiaorong still wanted to eat two more meals.

As a veteran salted fish, Gu Jiaorong only wants two things in her life, one is safety, and the other is delicious food.

Gu Jiaorong looked at Pei Xu with a soft voice.

"So, Your Majesty, do you agree to my request?"

Pei Xu naturally had no reason to refuse. He was still somewhat interested in Gu Jiaorong.

"I know. I'll buy it for you."

Pei Xu nodded. He was not going to refuse such a small request.

"I know that Your Majesty is the best."

Gu Jiaorong responded happily and picked up the bowl again.

She had been hungry all day and now her appetite was strong. With delicious food in front of her, she naturally wanted to eat more.

Pei Xu watched her eat so sweetly that he unknowingly added another bowl of rice.

"Your Highness hasn't had such a good appetite for a long time."

Fuan said happily that it was obvious that Aunt Gu had some ability to win the favor of the prince.

Gu Jiaorong didn’t know that Fu’an had so many thoughts. She just felt that the meal was really enjoyable.

After putting down her bowl and chopsticks, she thought Pei Xu was about to leave.

After all, Pei Xu is a prince with real power. He is busy with official duties on weekdays and rarely stays in the backyard, not to mention that she cannot sleep with him now. Even if Pei Xu has needs, he should find someone else.

However, Pei Xu had no intention of leaving. He sat there leisurely drinking tea.

After dinner, Gu Jiaorong just wanted to lie down, but today she had to sit here with him.

The workers' resentment is about to overflow the screen.

Gu Jiaorong just felt that the boss Pei Xu was not kind enough. The employees had already suffered work-related injuries, but they were still required to stay at their posts.

She stared at Pei Xu closely, with a look of resentment in her eyes.

Pei Xu naturally noticed it, but he thought Gu Jiaorong was very cute, so he teased her on purpose.
