Chapter 83 Jealousy
East Palace.
Chu Li arranged the small kitchen to prepare sumptuous dishes.
She fulfilled her promise and invited Ye Hanting to the East Palace for dinner.
Ye Hanting looked at the table full of dishes and raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is this how you thank me?"
Chu Li gave a flattering smile and raised his teacup. "This time, I was able to pass the test in front of my father, all thanks to you, sir. I will use tea instead of wine to toast you, sir!"
Ye Hanting looked at Chu Li offering him tea and shook his head slightly, "The prince's thanks are insincere."
The corners of Chu Li's lips twitched. Want more toasts?
Ye Hanting wanted to kill the unborn baby in her belly!
"I haven't been feeling well lately. How about Chi Yan drinking it for me?"
Chi Yan pointed his finger at his face and said in shock: "Your Highness, I am a subordinate of the Grand Tutor."
Chu Li held the cup and sighed, "I have a bad drinking habit. I like to do stupid things after drinking. It would be bad if I hurt the Master. If you don't want me to, then I will drink!"
Chi Yan frowned. Did the prince mean that he would have sex after drinking?
Ah, no, I absolutely cannot let the prince take the opportunity to think about his master's body.
"I'll drink it!" Chi Yan took the wine glass generously.
Ye Hanting raised his hand and said, "You don't need to drink, we're just eating today."
Chu Li breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly, a silver bell-like voice was heard.
"Brother Prince!"
Chu Li glanced sideways and saw Concubine Shu's daughter, the seventh sister Chu Xing.
There was another person following behind Chu Xing, Pei Ye!
As soon as Chu Xing came in, he first saw the spotless and unparalleled handsome tutor Ye Hanting.
Her heartbeat quickened instantly, and she stammered, "Master Taifu is here too!"
Ye Hanting had an indifferent expression, he knew that Chu Xing seemed to be interested in him.
However, he never liked people without brains.
He would never treat a little girl like Chu Xing as a woman.
He nodded politely and distantly as a greeting.
Chu Xing's heartbeat quickened a little more, and she twisted her handkerchief nervously.
I don’t know what else I can say to Ye Hanting.
Chu Li bumped into Pei Ye's sight.
Pei Ye looked at her with a cynical smile on his lips.
"The prince is inviting us to dinner, why don't you invite me, the commander?"
When he saw Ye Hanting, he said sarcastically, "Master Taifu, you are in a good mood. Would you like to drink? I will drink with you."
After saying that, he didn't hesitate and sat down next to Chu Li. Pei Ye and Ye Hanting surrounded Chu Li on the left and right.
Chu Li stood up and looked at Chu Xing, "Xing'er, you should sit down and eat something too."
Chu Xing said excitedly: "Is it okay?"
As she said this, she glanced at Ye Hanting.
Chu Li smiled, "How can a brother let you starve?"
Soon, four people sat together at the table.
Ye Hanting's eyes fell on Pei Ye. He sent someone to check on Pei Ye and discovered that he and Chu Li were actually childhood sweethearts.
The two were very close when they were young. Pei Ye's grandmother's sister was the empress dowager, and he and Chu Li were related. They grew up together, ate together, lived together, and even slept in the same bed.
Pei Ye just doesn't know now that Chu Li is the Chu Chu he has been missing for many years.
If he knew, I wonder how he would treat Chu Li.
Ye Hanting felt extremely uncomfortable when he thought about the fact that Chu Li and Pei Ye had slept in the same bed when they were young.
Even though they were both children at the time, he still felt suffocated.
Ye Hanting is a germaphobe. Just as he was about to pick up a piece of meat in front of him with his chopsticks, another pair of chopsticks came over.
He raised his eyes and saw Pei Ye.
"If you like it, Grand Tutor, I can give it to you." Pei Ye said casually.
Ye Hanting let go of his chopsticks and placed them on the table.
Chu Xing looked left and right. She came to her brother's place, but Pei Ye insisted on following her. Was it just to target the Grand Tutor?
She curled her lips and looked at Pei Ye, "Brother Pei Ye, if you like boiled pork slices, my mother cooks it better."
Pei Ye sneered, put down his chopsticks, propped up his cheek and looked at Chu Xing, "Little girl, are you going to protect her already?"
Chu Xing's cheeks blushed at Pei Ye's words. Did Pei Ye know that she liked Ye Hanting?
She stammered, "I didn't, don't talk nonsense!"
Chu Li watched the interaction between the three people. She discovered that Chu Xing liked Ye Hanting. Could it be that Pei Ye liked Chu Xing?
Chu Xing boldly asked, "Master Taifu, would you like to taste my mother's cooking?"
Chu Li was sure that Chu Xing liked Ye Hanting, and she was not afraid of making trouble. She smiled and said, "Chu Xing, I will try Concubine Shu's boiled pork slices next time."
Chu Xing nodded desperately, "Okay, Brother Crown Prince, Mother will definitely be very happy that you can come."
Chu Li poked Ye Hanting's arm and said, "Master Taifu, would you like to come with us?"
Chu Xing's eyes suddenly lit up, and she looked at Ye Hanting with her deer-like eyes. Will he go?
Ye Hanting frowned slightly and looked at Chu Li coldly. Does Chu Li like matchmaking so much?
Didn't she feel at all that he treated her differently from others?
He doesn't eat anyone's food!
Ye Hanting was a little angry that Chu Li actually pushed him to Chu Xing.
Pei Ye curled his lips and looked at the reactions of the three people. It was rumored that the Grand Tutor treated the Crown Prince differently. Judging from his reaction just now, it seemed to be true.
It turns out that this cold King of Hell is interested in Chu Li. Haha, it’s really interesting that a dignified Taifu is interested in a man.
The origins of this Grand Tutor are mysterious, and no one knows why His Majesty treats him so differently.
Originally, he hated Ye Hanting because he was targeting Chu Li.
He hates anyone who helps Chu Li!
In the past, Ye Hanting had no handle. If Ye Hanting had ill intentions towards Chu Li, he would keep a close eye on this little tail.
Pei Ye raised a meaningful smile, "Master Taifu, are you going?"
Ye Hanting stood up and said in a cold tone, "I am ill, so I'll take my leave."
Chu Li wanted to match him up with Chu Xing, but she didn't care about his feelings at all. In other words, to Chu Li, he was just like that night pearl that could be given to others at will.
Ye Hanting stood up and left with a grim look on his face.
Chu Li was at a loss. Ye Hanting was fine just now. What happened?
Ye Hanting was the person she wanted to treat to dinner today, so she immediately chased after him.
Ye Hanting has long legs and walks incredibly fast. Chi Yan follows him at a jog behind him. When he sees Chu Li catching up with him, he blocks Chu Li's way.
"Prince, my master is not feeling well and needs to go home!"
Chi Yan thought to himself: Chu Li deserves it, he knew that the Grand Tutor liked him, but he still tried to match them up on purpose, what a joke!
Chu Li looked at Ye Hanting's back and shouted, "Sir, you should have a good rest."
She didn't know why Ye Hanting suddenly got angry. Did he not like her trying to match him up with Chu Xing?
Then she won’t match them up, why is she so stingy!
Hard to appease!
Ye Hanting stopped in his tracks after hearing Chu Li's words.
