1064 Chapter 1064 “Tea Ceremony“
Li Shi Ying nodded following what Long Ao Zhen told her to do. The girl obediently stood there waiting for the emperor to ask them to sit.
"My people. Tonight, there will be another event aside from the crowning of the crown princess" The emperor started his speech with a loud voice. The man scanned the guests and smiled like a proud dad. Finally, his son won't be single anymore. He continued.
"Tonight, my one and only son will be engaged to our new princess, Princess Yi Zhe. I invite all of you to be the witness of this joyous occasion" The emperor rubbed his hand together looking like an impatient dad who couldn't wait to send off his son to another girl.
He didn't mind the fact that Li Shi Ying was someone from another world. There must be a way to keep her here without damaging the world after all.
"Long Ao Zhen, Li Shi Ying. Please take your seat" the emperor then continued his words. The man turned around to command the young couple to do the tea ceremony.
Hearing this, Li Shi Ying and Long Ao Zhen immediately sat down in lotus position. The man sat down on the left side of the table while Li Shi Ying sat on the right side. Both of them faced the guests.
"Pick up the tea" The emperor watched from the side as he gave a command. His voice was stern and a lot more formal than before. It made Li Shi Ying felt slightly nervous.
Long Ao Zhen picked up the tea first before Li Shi Ying followed after. The two of them only picked up the tea served by the servant. The tea was still piping hot making Li Shi Ying had to switch hand every second to avoid getting burnt.
Did they forgot a human like she is so fragile?? Unlike dragons, she can't withstand the heat!
"My son was single for 20 years of his life. The first time he meets Li Shi Ying is when he went to the lower realm. They met by accident but that was what precisely brought these two together. I can't think of anything other than fate tying these two. . . ." The emperor began talking nonsense for quite a long time.
He started by telling the guests how Li Shi Ying and Long Ao Zhen met for the first time and then he went to praising his son out of the blue. Maybe the emperor was too excited for his son to be engaged and would soon get a wife too.
He started to blabber making the guests could only shake their head. They knew that the emperor was like this. He just...love to praise his son!
While waiting for the emperor to finish his summary of his son's life rather than telling the others about the couple experience, Li Shi Ying still switched hand real fast.
She didn't want to drop the cup and spill the tea all over. But this tea was really hot! Even though it's winter she still felt that her fingers were burning. If the emperor didn't stop talking son, she might throw the cup to his head.
As Li Shi Ying focused her attention on the tea, Long Ao Zhen focused his attention to Li Shi Ying instead. The man would occasionally steal a glance over Li Shi Ying and coincidentally saw that the girl was having difficulty in holding the tea.
This made Long Ao Zhen ponder.
For him, he didn't feel anything but the tea must be too hot for his bunny? This isn't good! His bunny might get hurt.
Noticing this, Long Ao Zhen inserted his divine energy to the tea and instantly cooled it down in less than a second. Then before the emperor finished his long speech, he nudged Li Shi Ying and whispered.
"Switch your tea with mine" Using the opportunity that the guests' attention was on the emperor, Long Ao Zhen immediately asked the girl to switch her tea with his tea. After all, he had cooled it down for her.
"Isn't your tea is the same as mine?" Li Shi Ying raised one of her eyebrows in suspicion. Could it be someone tried to poison her this time and Long Ao Zhen noticed that thus asking to exchange tea?
"I have cooled down my tea so hurry gives your tea to me. It must be too hot for you" Long Ao Zhen urged Li Shi Ying. He didn't want to see his bunny suffered having to withstand the hot tea.
Hearing this, Li Shi Ying's heart was touched again. She didn't think Long Ao Zhen noticed such a small thing since no one noticed at all. Ah, Ao Zhen how could you be so perfect? Husband material!
Li Shi Ying squealed in her heart but then she hurriedly passed the tea to Long Ao Zhen. Of course, before she did, to be more cautious than ever, Li Shi Ying asked her butterfly to silently scanned the tea whether it was safe or not while waiting for the emperor to speak.
"It's safe mistress" The butterfly confirmed that the tea Li Shi Ying was holding, didn't contain any dangerous ingredients. Only then the girl gave her tea to Long Ao Zhen and received the tea belonging to the man.
Upon sensing how warm the tea is and not as hot as before, Li Shi Ying once again couldn't help but want to cry. She really loves this man. She had to protect him and made him happy too.
