Chapter 395 – Zhao Zhang Wei Was Envious Of Xi Ying

That day, nothing was discussed in the private room after Zhao Zhang Wei promised to complete two conditions put forward by Xi Ying.

As a common ritual of completing a deal, Zhao Zhang Wei had a meal with Xi Ying …and his family.

"Yumm…"

Hearing the cheerful sound, Zhao Zhang Wei turned his head to look at the little bun who was now sitting beside him while Li Rui and Xi Ying were sitting on the other side of the square table.

"So delicious …Mother, here have this!"

The whole table was filled with different kind of dishes. Xi Ling would pick something from one plate and then put it in his bowl. If he would like it, he would forward that dish to his mother and then ask her to taste it.

Everyone else except his mother was completely invisible to him.

At this moment, because of his actions, his mouth was now fully bloated. His big black eyes were wide and full of brightness as he chewed on whatever was inside his mouth.

Looking at his bloated cheek, Zhao Zhang Wei suddenly had a weird urge to poke them, and …he did it.

"Woah!"

Xi Ling's lips were formed to make an 'o' as he stared at Zhao Zhang Wei with a look that sounded 'are you perhaps sick in the head?'

Zhao Zhang Wei however found him too cute.

So cute that to have the child's attention on himself, he poked his cheek again.

Xi Ling glared at the stranger man sitting by his side. With very difficulty, he climbed down from his chair on his short legs and then dragged his chair a little away from Zhao Zhang Wei.

However, now he had another trouble to deal with.   

How could he sit on the chair again with his short legs!

His nervous and hesitant eyes went to look at his father. However, suddenly at this moment, his mother seemed to have felt nauseous and hence her father's whole attention was on her.

Understanding the conflict inside the child's mind, Zhao Zhang Wei turned his head away with a hidden smile on his face.

He was waiting for Xi Ling to ask him for help.

However, he had never thought that the little bun was equally stubborn as his father.

He would never ask a man for help who poked his cheek not once but twice when he was enjoying eating.

The little bun stubbornly tried to sit on the chair by himself by putting his one leg on it first. However, next, he didn't know where he should put his other leg.

With a sigh, he put down both of his legs and looked at the chair with a thoughtful expression.

A moment later, he tried again only to stay unsuccessful in his attempts.

Now the little bun was panicked as he looked at the delicious dishes on the table. They would go cold if he didn't hurry.

With this thought, he tried again. But just at this moment, a pair of arms held his small body from his armpits and the next moment, he found himself seated on his chair. 

His eyes were bright with joy until he came to know that the person helping him was none other than the man who had poked his cheek.

The joy vanished and a small pout appeared on his lips.

Ignoring the man beside him, he picked a new dish and put it in his bowl. He didn't know when it would be the next time he would be able to come out of Xi Manor again.

So he wanted to enjoy everything he could at this moment …instead of wasting his time on a man who was perhaps not right in the head.

Xi Ling thought as he glanced at Zhao Zhang Wei for one last time with a little bit of contempt in his eyes.

Zhao Zhang Wei was left amused by Xi Ling's actions.

He couldn't help but think whether the children born by Yi Huiqing and him would also be this cute. However, the desire inside his heart was suppressed when he remembered the pain in his wangfei's eyes as she had talked about the death of their unborn children.

Those memories …Zhao Zhang Wei didn't wish to remember them so he tried to concentrate on his meal mostly and then leave the restaurant.

A quarter of shichen later, everyone finally stood up from their seats.

Xi Ying was worried again as Li Rui had eaten too little. 

She was feeling nauseous again. He wanted to go to Xi Manor and then have them cook to prepare the kind of meal that Li Hua had told him would be better for Li Rui.

Something without too much oil or any other greasy thing.

"Your Highness, this Lord will discuss further details with you at some other time."

Zhao Zhang Wei's phoenix eyes flickered.

He understood that Xi Ying already had some plans inside his mind. 

Keeping aside his curiosity, for now, he nodded his head in a very calm and composed manner and even said politely.

"Prime Minister Xi should visit this place often."

The little bun who was very satisfied with the food of the restaurant nodded his small head vigorously. Yes, they should come here often. 

However, Xi Ying's lips twitched after hearing Zhao Zhang Wei's words.

He pulled Xi Ling to his side by his collar and then said

"Well…This Lord doubts that we will step inside here again…not for the next nine months at least."

He had not allowed any greasy dish on their table in Plum Courtyard too after he came to know that Li Rui felt nauseous with their smell.   

The place had food that could make his wife feel nauseous so of course, he would not visit this place again.

Xi Ling pouted on hearing his father's words while Zhao Zhang Wei looked confused.

However as Xi Ying turned around to leave with his wife and son, Zhao Zhang Wei's eyes had only one emotion and that was …envy.

He really envied Xi Ying.

Even though he did so many mistakes, Lady Li is still living with him peacefully now that he loves her. They had a cute little child.

While he …he doubted if Yi Huiqing would let him linger around herself in this life.

However, he also knew that he deserved it.

It was fine as long as she was living inside Xinhe Palace as his wangfei.

It was enough for him.
