It wasn’t easily to tell who was behind them, but it was definitely an organized protest.
Their words were highly disruptive, and the calmer servants grew agitated as well.
“Granny Gong, are we supposed to eat this?”
“Miss Wu, you’re treating us like beggars.”
“If Miss Wu ends up running the residence one day, are we going to be starved all the time?”
–
They believed that the rules wouldn’t apply to them if their number was big enough, so everyone spoke at the same time, though no one dared to step out.
But Feng Wu still heard every single word.
Granny Gong’s face darkened when she saw Feng Wu frown.
However —
Just then, they heard footsteps outside.
The sound was quite special, and couldn’t belong to just any ordinary person, so everyone turned to look.
It was none other than Jun Linyuan himself!
He seemed to start a gust of wind when he walked in.
Dark clouds seemed to gather overhead after he arrived, and the oppressive energy made everyone uneasy.
Immediately, everyone stopped talking. They all lowered their heads and avoided Jun Linyuan’s sharp gaze.
The crown prince looked around the room before his gaze fell on the dinner table.
There —
There was only one plate in front of each seat.
Jun Linyuan frowned and glanced at Granny Gong.
Granny Gong immediately explained, “Your Royal Highness, Miss Wu only had time to make one dish, so she made fish-flavored sliced pork over rice instead.”
She was a little embarrassed.
Dinner was the most important meal for the crown prince, and even the simplest dinner would contain thirty dishes, but now…
There was only one dish poured over rice, and the dish was spicy, which His Royal Highness hated. Granny Gong thought that Jun Linyuan would be furious.
And she wasn’t the only one who expected that.
Because this thing was so offensive!
Not only did she only make one dish, it was also a chilli red color. The crown prince hated spicy food!
Something cold glinted in Zhen Xia’s eyes.
Bixi smiled a little.
Everyone was waiting for Jun Linyuan’s tantrum when —
To their surprise, the crown prince frowned at first and indeed looked like he was going to lose his temper.
Yes, he was about to shout at Feng Wu…
Everyone’s heart rates picked up, but Jun Linyuan turned around and glared at the crowd.
“You should consider yourself lucky to even have food on the table! Who gave you the right to be so picky? Even I haven’t said anything yet!”
Jun Linyuan was furious.
He was angry because these servants didn’t have the right to be picky.
Little Feng Wu made the dish herself, and they should feel grateful to even be able to taste it. Who gave them the right to be so choosy?
“Finish everything on your plate, down to the last grain of rice!” The crown prince glared at the crowd. “Do that, or wait to be punished!”
That serious?!
Everyone exchanged looks, and all of them couldn’t believe their ears.
However, the crown prince wasn’t reasonable when he was angry. He sat down and beckoned Feng Wu over. “Give me a plate!”
Feng Wu was speechless.
