Chapter 95 Being able to eat is a blessing
Gu Peiyan smiled faintly, but quickly suppressed it.
The speed was so fast that Chen Mingde almost thought it was an illusion.
"I'm sorry, it might not be possible today. I'll treat you to a meal tomorrow."
Chen Mingde also saw Wei Dongning's figure and tactfully withdrew his hand: "Since my sister-in-law is here, then I won't disturb you any longer."
Chen Mingde left first with his hands behind his back, but inside he was already crying: how come everyone else has someone waiting for them at home, but he's the only one without.
Good heavens, when will he be assigned a wife too?
He didn't want to be alone anymore.
Gu Peiyan quickly walked to Wei Dongning's side: "Why did you think of picking me up today?"
"Oh, Nao Nao asked me to accompany him to the Prince's Mansion for a stroll. I'll pick you up on the way back."
Xiao Fu heard what Wei Dongning said from behind and slapped his forehead.
While what the young lady said is true, it is still somewhat disheartening to hear.
You could tell from the sudden change in the young master's expression that he felt he wasn't as important to the young lady as the Second Prince.
Okay, that seems to be a fact.
Gu Peiyan quickly suppressed the bitterness in her heart and gave a soft "hmm": "Would you like to eat at home or out for dinner?"
"Let's go home. I didn't tell Aunt Zhou and the others that we weren't coming home for dinner when we left. I guess they should have already prepared dinner."
Wei Dongning's gaze passed over Gu Peiyan and lingered on the delicious food behind him.
Xiao Wu reappeared: "Ningbao, you're practically drooling."
"Absolutely impossible." Wei Dongning was confident in this much.
It's a bit of a pity; I'll have to come back another time to enjoy these delicacies.
Xiao Wu said gloatingly, "Serves you right for cutting back on my snacks. Now no one can have any!"
If it's the only one that can't eat delicious food, it will definitely cry sadly.
But if someone shares its fate, it will feel that it is not the worst off.
However, it overlooked a very important thing.
Gu Peiyan simply wouldn't let Wei Dongning indulge in her cravings.
Before returning to the mansion, Gu Peiyan took Wei Dongning to the market and bought some of her favorite candied fruits and other treats.
"That's enough, stop buying. We can't finish all of this in a short time." Wei Dongning looked at the pile of paper bags in Gu Peiyan's hand and felt that her wallet had become thinner.
Those spendthrift men!
We bought so much, it would be such a waste if we couldn't finish it all.
"No problem, buy more if you like. If there's anything else you want to eat, you can buy it too."
Gu Peiyan wanted to take Wei Dongning to the next dessert shop, but Wei Dongning stopped her, saying, "No more buying, let's go home!"
Wei Dongning grabbed Gu Peiyan's sleeve and started walking towards home.
Eating so many sweets, I'm afraid I'll develop diabetes.
Xiao Wu was making Wei Dongning's mouth water, especially since she kept showing it off to it.
She popped a candied fruit into her mouth and half-closed her eyes dramatically, saying, "Oh my, it's so delicious! How can there be such delicious candied fruit?"
"I'll take this to the central government! I'm going to take you to the central government!"
"Go ahead and sue, it won't do any good. This isn't some mission world, your supreme god won't punish you." Wei Dongning's expression was full of arrogance.
Enraged, Xiao Wu vanished in a flash.
It had to go back to the Time Travel Bureau to handle a big matter—to ask the Supreme God to buy it a bunch of delicious food.
On the way to the Gu residence, Gu Peiyan asked casually, "Why did the Second Prince think of inviting you to visit the Prince's residence?"
Wei Dongning thought of something inappropriate: "He's going to hang me up there and take me back."
Fortunately, she stopped herself in time: "I'm his sister, it's normal for him to take me around before he moves. But that mansion is really too big, I guess I'll lose two pounds after walking around here today."
Gu Peiyan said in a serious tone, "You can make up for it by eating more at dinner."
Wei Dongning was certain: this person didn't understand corny jokes.
Otherwise, we could just put it on Zhuanzhuan (a second-hand marketplace app) for recycling.
I reckon it should fetch a good price.
When the two returned home, the meal had already been prepared.
Wei Dongning washed her hands in the basin of water and then eagerly sat down at the dining table.
They picked up their chopsticks and began to feast.
Gu Peiyan was right about one thing: she did need to eat more tonight.
As she walked back from the market, her stomach began to show signs of being empty.
Gu Peiyan ladled a bowl of soup for her and placed it beside her: "Eat slowly, don't rush."
When I took her to see the doctor last time, the doctor told her not to eat too fast, but she just couldn't remember.
Therefore, Gu Peiyan would patiently remind him every time.
Wei Dongning subconsciously slowed down her eating pace, but after a while, she unconsciously sped up again.
This bad habit is really hard to break in a short time.
After eating and drinking his fill at the Transmigration Bureau, Xiao Wu rubbed his belly and swaggered back into the kitten's body, lazily stretching: "As expected, being full makes one feel happy!"
Wei Dongning scoffed, "You'll definitely be fat when you step on the scale tomorrow. A kitten that's too fat can't run or jump very high, you know."
"I agree, live for today and forget about dieting."
"Pooh."
"I'm just a little kitten, I don't need to worry about my figure."
Xiao Wu still thinks he was very clever to choose to transform into a kitten.
Even if she gets fat, she will still be endlessly pampered.
For example, right now: "What's wrong with Xiao Wu today? Usually when we're eating, it will come over begging for food. Is it sick?"
A piece of meat that had been cooling was still in Gu Peiyan's palm.
Xiao Wu didn't even lift his eyelids.
This made Gu Peiyan somewhat worried.
"It's nothing, it probably just secretly ate some good food today and ate a bit too much."
Gu Peiyan lifted the cat onto her lap: "It's good that it's not sick; being able to eat is a blessing."
Wei Dongning was already used to Gu Peiyan's doting on Xiao Wu, and calmly finished the last mouthful of soup in her bowl: "You are not allowed to feed it any more snacks today."
Su Yizhuo stormed into the East Palace, his heart filled with anger: "Brother, what urgent matter do you have that you summoned me here for!"
"Can't I contact you if there's nothing wrong?"
“I didn’t say that.”
“I do have something important to tell you.” The Crown Prince put away his joking expression: “I will be traveling south soon. Please keep an eye on that hostage in the palace for me. He met with the envoy some time ago, and I’m afraid there might be some conspiracy between them.”
"Okay, same old rules, leave me a few people."
The crown prince raised his hand, and two people jumped down from the roof beam: "These two guards will be responsible for protecting you from now on, and you can order them around as you please."
Su Yizhuo could barely suppress the smile on his face.
But the thought of having to be responsible for their salaries if they were under my control made me want to refuse.
"Don't worry. Since they are the Crown Prince's secret guards, the Crown Prince will naturally take care of all their expenses."
"Brother, you are the wisest brother in the whole world. I will do whatever you ask me to do from now on."
"Really?"
"Of course."
"Then will you go south in my place?"
Su Yizhuo slipped away, saying, "I have no intention of seizing power. Big brother, you're the one who should do the work! Bye!"
