--- Chapter 155 ---
After they went back to the supreme pontiff palace, Bibi Dong suddenly stopped her steps and looked at the bushes in the garden with an observant gaze.
"Yunlong, It seemed your maid had been trained really hard under you, huh." Bibi Dong commented while moving her gaze back to Yunlong, who had a weak smile on his face.
"Zhuqing, what are you doing there?" Yunlong naturally asked while releasing a sigh.
Zhu Zhuqing quickly stood up from the bushes and looked at them with a calm expression. "I've been waiting for you..." She quietly answered.
Bibi Dong slightly smiled at Zhu Zhuqing's answers and couldn't help but found it very amusing because this girl clearly had a crush on her son.
'How amusing.' Bibi Dong chuckled a little, which caused Zhu Zhuqing to tilt her head because the mistress seemed happy about something.
Qian Renxue was somehow displeased when Zhu Zhuqing showed up and didn't bother to hide her unhappiness.
'Hmph, It's not like I'm jealous or anything.' Qian Renxue thought while crossing her arms.
Yunlong shook his head wryly and said, "Zhuqing, come here."
Zhu Zhuqing obediently walked toward Yunlong and stood perfectly in front of him. "Yes?" She responded.
Yunlong didn't do anything for a moment and just quietly stared at her eyes. "How long?" He asked while patting her head.
"Fifteen minutes..." Zhu Zhuqing answered, which caused Yunlong to shake his head again because that means she has been waiting for exactly that long.
"I'll give you a snack later, now let's go back first," Yunlong said, to which Zhu Zhuqing responded with an eager nod.
"Okay, stop right there." Qian Renxue firmly said and raised Yunlong's hand, so he stopped patting Zhu Zhuqing's head.
"We'll have dinner in a few hours. You should have prepared for it, right?" She added while moving her gaze to Zhu Zhuqing, who stared at her with a stoic expression.
"That's not my duty today." Zhu Zhuqing replied, "Yu Ning'er should be the one who cooks."
They stared at each other for a second, and Bibi Dong couldn't help but become more amused by it because it's been a while since she had seen such a rivalry.
"You must have some hard times dealing with them." Bibi Dong commented while looking at Yunlong, who could only helplessly nod his head.
They walked toward the wooden house inside of the secret garden and found Chu Yunxi picking a few herbs on the way.
"Oh, you came back." Chu Yunxi greeted them with a bow.
Bibi Dong quietly nodded her head and asked, "You're picking herbs?"
"Yes." Chu Yunxi responded with a smile, "Since Ning'er didn't know specifically about the garden, I should pick a few herbs for her."
"I see..." Bibi Dong looked around and noticed Bai Xue stood near the small river with a burning yellow flame above her palm.
"Hmm, She's an alchemist. That's surprising." She commented.
"I did teach her a few basic things," Yunlong casually replied while also looking at his maid.
Qian Renxue pouted because her brother's maids got praised more than herself.
"Renxue, are you jealous?" Bibi Dong suddenly asked, which caught her daughter off guard.
"Eh? N-No." Qian Renxue hurriedly swayed her head away to dodge Bibi Dong's gaze.
"Is that so?" Bibi Dong teased a little and noticed the change of Qian Renxue's face color, which became slightly red.
'Tsundere.' Yunlong naturally thought while looking at Qian Renxue.
The day continued as the sun descended from the skies, which indicated the night to come.
--- Dining Room ---
'I shouldn't mess this up.' Yu Ning'er thought while serving dishes that she had cooked on the dinner table.
'Mistress is judging me... I shouldn't Mess this up!' She firmly added.
Bibi Dong only smiled at Yu Ning'er and observed her for a moment. 'What a bunch of interesting girls.' She thought.
Yu Ning'er released a heavy breath and said, "Please enjoy the food."
"Sure." Bibi Dong naturally responded and took the first bite, which left Yu Ning'er in a hopeful state.
.
After a few moments, Bibi Dong opened her mouth and commented, "It's good."
'Thank god!' Yu Ning'er released a sigh of relief because Bibi Dong didn't dislike her food.
"It looked like becoming my son's maid improved your ability a lot." Bibi Dong continued while taking another bite.
Yu Ning'er hurriedly nodded her head and humbly responded, "I'm still far behind you, mistress. The young master said that he likes your food the most."
"Hmm..." Bibi Dong chuckled a little because Yu Ning'er is trying really hard to be likable in front of her.
'Well, it's not like I dislike compliments.' She added in her heart.
Bai Xue, who looked at this scene, couldn't help but also quietly comment, "Good for you, sparky rat..."
Yu Ning'er didn't get angry by her provocation and only cheerfully smiled, which caused Bai Xue to stare in disbelief.
"Thanks." Yu Ning'er calmly replied with a gentle tone.
The dining experience continued for a few minutes without any problem, and Bibi Dong sometimes would ask about Yunlong's story in the star luo empire, which he confidently narrated to her.
Yunlong only told Bibi Dong the exciting part of his story, which she calmly listened to with a gentle expression on her face.
After the story ended and the maids went away doing their duties, Bibi Dong peacefully closed her eyes and said, "You have gone through a lot, huh."
Yunlong only laughed and responded with a nod. "Yeah," He said.
Bibi Dong felt slightly warm and opened her eyes, seeing Yunlong gently caressing her face.
"You should be tired? I recommend you take a bath first." Bibi Dong said while smiling at Yunlong.
"Okay then." Yunlong nodded his head and walked away from her, leaving Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue alone in the dining room.
"You still remember our bet, right?" Qian Renxue suddenly asked while intently looking at her mother.
"Of course." Bibi Dong casually responded with a chuckle.
"I'll win! Definitely." Qian Renxue firmly stated, which caused Bibi Dong to chuckle even more.
Bibi Dong quietly looked at her and naturally replied, "Don't be too proud, or you'll lose without realizing, Renxue."
Qian Renxue frowned a little at Bibi Dong's statement and couldn't help but become anxious.
'The biggest threat wasn't Yunlong's maids, but this woman...' Qian Renxue thought with a solemn expression.
Bibi Dong stood up from her seat and walked toward the door. "Also, I'll sleep with Yunlong tonight, so please don't disturb us." She suddenly said, which caught Qian Renxue off guard.
"What!" Qian Renxue hurriedly moved her gaze to the door, but Bibi Dong had already disappeared.
"That woman..." She quietly muttered while gritting her teeth.
In the corridor, Bibi Dong leisurely walked toward the bathroom to also wash.
She calmly looked at the moon from the window and hummed, "It's been a while since I slept together with Yunlong."
