Chapter 720: Seeing the Prophecy Again!
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Pei Huai originally wanted Su Ji to have a good rest, but…in the end, it was the complete opposite of what he had imagined.
Not only did he not let her rest, but he also made her very tired.
Su Ji was too good at igniting flames.
The uneasiness that had been lingering in his heart for the past few days also exploded.
Ever since she returned from the police station, Su Ji’s attitude towards him had become strange, so her sudden enthusiasm today had really made him lose control.
He was trying to confirm with her what she thought of him.
He confirmed it three times.
Twice in the hot spring, and once again in the room.
The first ray of white light from the horizon penetrated through the clouds and entered the room through the bottom of the curtains.
Pei Huai came out of the bathroom after taking a shower.
The firm and beautiful feet stepped on the soft mat with excellent water absorption. The bathrobe was draped over his shoulders. The belt was not tied.
Between the two pieces of the robe, there was a shadow
He dried his hair and his gaze fell on the white light on the bed.
Su Ji was sleeping so soundly that her breathing was more obvious than usual.
Pei Huai pursed his lips, his expression cold.
He was blaming himself.
He shouldn’t have indulged himself.
No matter how much she teased him, he shouldn’t be like this.
Before he met Su Ji, he had never doubted his self-control.
He walked to the bedside and sat down. He placed his large palm on her warm forehead, which was a bit warm.
He shifted his gaze to her back. He only noticed the marks on her back when she rubbed against the hot spring stone.
Then, he noticed the empty coffee cup by the bed. He picked it up and smelled it. It was very strong and did not have a trace of sweetness.
Pei Huai was extremely regretful.
The knuckles that were holding the coffee cup turned white.
Su Jit s head moved slightly, and she frowned slightly, as if she was dreaming of something.
Pei Huai had just taken a shower and his fingertips were slightly cold. He placed them on her forehead, giving her a comfortable feeling.
Feeling this effect, Pei Huai helped her massage the area between her eyebrows.
This continued for an unknown period of time. He kept rubbing her at the same frequency. When the sunlight that seeped through the bottom of the curtain gradually turned golden, Su Ji’s expression eased.
Pei Huai lay down beside her and prepared to sleep.
He did not know what Su Ji had just dreamed.
Su Ji could not tell if it was a dream or reality.
To be precise, it was impossible to tell if it was a dream or a prophecy.
She saw Pei Huai’s arm resting on the rusted railing. Half of his body was over the railing. Below him was the surging sea water. The entire scene was covered in a greenish blue. The sound of the waves crashing was suffocating.
She saw the bulging veins on Pei Huai’s forehead. His eyes were bloodshot as he stared at the sea.
The pain in her heart in the dream was real, as if she was being rubbed and squeezed by a blunt object.
She had never seen Pei Huai like this.
He was crying as if he had lost everything.
The next morning, the cook prepared breakfast according to the dishes that their master had ordered yesterday.
There was a large heating plate on the dining table. The food on it remained warm, like it was freshly made.
Although he didn’t have to worry about time, half an hour had passed…an hour passed…two hours passed…
There was still no movement in the masters’ bedroom!!
The old butler went to the second floor a few times to take a look. The door was tightly shut, and no one dared to go in and disturb them.
The last time they checked was 10 0’clock sharp.
“Ms. Su Ji used to love sleeping in, but Mr. Pei Huai wakes up very early every day. It’s already quite late, so why isn’t he awake yet?” The housekeeper was worried.
“Don’t pry into our masters ‘affairs,” the old butler warned sternly. “It’s our masters’ business when they want to wake up. We only need to prepare for their basic necessities after they wake up. ”
The butlers were both members of the royal butler team, but the old butler was more experienced.
The housekeeper bowed apologetically, but half a minute later, she said awkwardly, “but it’s almost noon. Shouldn’t we prepare lunch…”
This matter was indeed a little difficult to handle. If it was during normal times and they missed breakfast, then they would just prepare lunch directly. However, the difficulty was that their master had already set the menu for today’s three meals. Then, when the masters woke up, would they want to eat breakfast first or lunch directly?
The goal of the royal family’s butler team was to prepare everything for their masters and ensure that they had three meals a day.
The old butler thought for a long time and came up with a perfect solution.
A table of breakfast and a table of lunch were prepared according to Sir’s recipes. Moreover, they were all heated tables. When they were placed together, the masters could enjoy either one.
He was really a clever boy!
At noon, there was movement upstairs.
Actually, Pei Huai had woken up at past ten, but he had been hugging Su Ji the whole time, and Su Ji slept on his arm.
She did not wake up, so he maintained this position.
He didn’t move.
Later, the two of them came down the stairs hand in hand. Su Ji did not want to show off their affection, but when she went down the first floor, her legs went weak and he almost lost her balance.
The butler team lowered their heads and waited at the side, not daring to look.
They were really close.
No wonder Mr. Pei Huai had asked them to call her Madam, but Ms. Su Ji asked them to change it.
Su Ji felt a little awkward. After all, she was only Pei Huai’s girlfriend. The old butler said, “Sir, Ms. Su Ji, breakfast and lunch are ready.”
Su Ji looked at the two tables of delicacies. They were almost as good as the banquets she held in the palace, but now, only the two of them were eating. After a full ten seconds of silence, Su Ji sighed. “This is too much.”
The old butler’s heart skipped a beat.
Was it too much?
Wouldn’t that mean that she was dissatisfied?
A layer of sweat instantly appeared on his forehead.
However, Su Ji only sighed as Pei Huai brought her downstairs.
She walked to the dining table and glanced at it. “It’s a waste if we can’t finish it. Why don’t we eat together?”
“Ms. Su Ji, this is absolutely not possible!” The old butler raised his head.
“These are all dishes that Sir specially prepared for you.”
Su Ji shrugged. “I can’t finish it even if I have ten mouths.”
The old butler looked at his master as if he was asking for help.
Pei Huai said in a deep voice, “whatever she says.”
The old butler paused. “Yes…”
The servants behind him lowered their heads and communicated with their eyes.
No way!
They could also taste this table of delicacies?
After waiting at the dining table for the entire morning, they were salivating!
Then, Su Ji ordered a few dishes that she really wanted to eat. The old butler distributed the rest, and the servants and other butlers enjoyed them together.
On the second day after returning to the palace, Su Ji had successfully won over the hearts of the servants and butlers in the palace with a meal!
“What are your plans later?” Su Ji looked up during the meal.
Pei Huai saw that she looked good. She must have had a good sleep. He laughed softly. “Let’s go to the Lychee Manor..”
