Chapter 9 - Harshly scolding (5)

The two young boys quietly picked up their spoon and started to eat slowly. They were still able to main their forms in the first couple of sips. After all, they were still young and have been starving. Let alone that they had never had food that smelled so good and have meat inside! They started wolfing down the food and didn't even care when food was splattered on their faces.

The two bowls of porridge were gone in no time.

When they finally realized how quickly they had finished it, they carefully put down their spoons and again sat quietly with their face tightened as though they felt that the way they ate in front of Zhong Yuhuan was embarra.s.sing.

"Want some more?" asked Zhong Yuhuan.

They hesitated for a second, then finally nodded.

Zhong Yuhuan summoned the maid and have her brought up two more bowls of porridge.

They must really be starving.

The way they ate looked like they would have swallowed their own tongue with it if only they could.

And just like that, each of them ate three bowls of porridge.

Neither one of them touched any of the small plates of food on the sides.

Zhong Yuhuan glanced over at the dishes… carrots, sautéed phoenix tail gra.s.s, Chinese yam and black mushroom…. Okay, so they were all vegetables, no wonder they didn't touch them at all. She figured at their age, only rice and meat would be able to satisfy their hunger.

Thought Zhong Yuhuan as her heart ached for them.

How could anyone abandon such a cute villain and male lead?

"Miss, your room is ready and the beds were set. And we have pajamas prepared for the two young masters," said the maid with a soft voice.

When you have money, anything could be prepared at any time of the day.

And just like that, they were the only three left in the entire area.

"Do you know how to bathe yourself?" asked Zhong Yuhuan.

Li Jinyuan nodded immediately.

Huo Chengming's face was stiff as he nodded stiffly. He blushed all the way through the tips of his ears.

Zhong Yuhuan smiled and said, "Well, good. Otherwise I will have to summon the stewards!"

Stewards?

Huo Chengming's blush disappeared right away.

"Why don't you two go play and digest the food a bit before taking a bath?" said Zhong Yuhuan as she sluggishly settled into the couch. Casually, she grabbed a throw pillow into her arms. The pillow was a pastel white, as was her face. She was so pretty it was difficult to look straight at her.

Li Jinyuan and Huo Chengming were both staring at her, but after a while, they couldn't help but turn away their eyes.

Zhong Yuhuan yawned and her eyes teared up, making her face look even more delicate than it was. She said, "You two can walk around here all you want. There are no others on this floor so you don't have to worry about anything."

The two boys, however, merely walked to the side of the couch and sat down on the carpeted floor.

"Why are you sitting on the floor?" asked Zhong Yuhuan as she sat up.

"We haven't bathed yet," replied Li Jinyuan softly.

"Don't worry about that," said Zhong Yuhuan as she pulled the two up one after the other. She didn't care how stiff their bodies were but just shoved them forcefully onto the couch next to her. "Okay, if you would rather not walk around, then just sit here. It's quite relaxing."

Stiffly, they fumbled until they could find the back of the couch before they clumsily mimicked Zhong Yuhuan and leaned and sinked into the couch….

Oh yeah…..

It was very comfortable and relaxing…

They couldn't help but closed their eyes.

It seemed…. There had never been a moment like this in their lives before.
