Shen Chuwei was utterly bewildered as the Emperor of Nanzhao Country led her into the palace, which was indeed much cooler than the outside.
Ye Haoting ordered a nearby Palace Maid, "Prepare some delicate pastries."
The little Palace Maid responded and turned around to prepare them. In no time, she brought over three plates of exquisite pastries and placed them in front of Shen Chuwei.
Shen Chuwei still had a confused expression on her face. She sneakily glanced at the Emperor of Nanzhao Country and involuntarily pinched Xuetuan's paw. Weren't emperors always stern-faced?
Why was the Emperor of Nanzhao Country different?
He seemed rather kind and approachable instead.
Ye Haoting sat opposite Shen Chuwei, observing her spirit-filled eyes that hadn't changed much since her childhood. Seeing her sitting motionless, he said warmly, "Xiao Jiu, have some pastries first."
