Xiao Jinyan took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and wiped the beads of sweat on her forehead. "Hmm, I had Chun Xi prepare a Grilled Lamb Steak for you."
Shen Chuwei was thrilled beyond words; she could finally feast on Grilled Lamb Steak. Her face, however, remained cool and collected as she feigned entitlement, "That is only what your Concubine deserves."
Xiao Jinyan nodded, "Hmm."
Shen Chuwei could no longer restrain a secret, triumphant smile.
When Chun Xi arrived, Xiao Jinyan instructed, "Go grill the Lamb Steak."
"Grill it now?" Chun Xi looked at Shen Chuwei in confusion. "Has the Young Mistress finished walking the twenty laps?"
Shen Chuwei nervously claimed, "Of course."
Chun Xi eyed her skeptically for a moment, then turned to prepare the Lamb Steak, wondering, 'Did she really finish the twenty laps so quickly?'
Shen Chuwei got her wish and savored the Grilled Lamb Steak, wiping her mouth with satisfaction.
