Bab 152: Chapter 151: Condescension

Shen Chuwei sighed helplessly as she watched the tall figure approach. If only she had come a bit later, she could have finished eating.

There was one bite of noodles left. To eat it or not was equally awkward as she sat there.

Xiao Jinyan glanced at the monk and with a keen eye, recognized him as the one who had offered incense that day.

He turned his gaze to Shen Chuwei and asked in a deep voice, "What are you doing here?"

Shen Chuwei slurped the two strands of noodles hanging from her mouth and wiped her lips with her hand as she stood up and bowed.

With the instant noodles right in front of her, she had no choice but to tell the truth, "This concubine is eating instant noodles."

The young monk also stood up, pressed his palms together in a gesture of respect, and said, "Your Highness."

Xiao Jinyan ignored the monk, his eyes fixed on Shen Chuwei. He glanced at the small bucket on the table, "Did you sneak out just to eat noodles?"

Shen Chuwei nodded guiltily, "Mhm."
