CHAPTER 375: CHAPTER 127 ROUGE GOOSE BREAST_3

Du Xixi glanced at the wall clock nearby, then looked at the various dishes cooked by 2569, and felt that today’s lunch would surely be more enjoyable than when she ate at the Military Department.

—Although the meals at the Military Department were uniformly arranged by the Cultural Relics Bureau, and Du Xixi, as a princess, had slightly better meals than others, she was used to her own cooking and 2569’s skill. These past ten days, she felt like she hadn’t truly enjoyed a meal.

Ke Lian didn’t react much, though eating was a bit difficult, he still earnestly finished all the food, even helping to eat the dishes Du Xixi couldn’t finish.

It can only be said that Du Xixi’s stomach has been pampered by her, whereas Ke Lian’s stomach has truly been trained well by the Military Department. Du Xixi saw the hall full of soldiers, and none were wasting food.

Du Xixi and Miao Miao walked out together, Miao Miao whispered in Du Xixi’s ear as they walked, "Miss, the rosy braised goose looks so delicious!"

When Du Xixi stepped out of the kitchen, she turned her head and saw Miao Miao’s cute expression as she licked her lips, immediately patting her head and laughing, "You, huh, as long as it’s made of goose, you probably think it’s delicious, right?"

Strangely, as a union of a Black Xuan Cat and a human, Miao Miao should theoretically prefer fish, especially since she loved fish when she was severely injured and couldn’t revert to human form.

But in human form, Miao Miao liked goose meat more, whether boiled, braised, steamed, or fried; Miao Miao loved goose meat more than fish.

Du Xixi thought that maybe when in cat form, Miao Miao’s animal instincts dominated, whereas in human form, humanity edged out the animal side.

Regardless, Miao Miao was very sensible and obedient, and the Ke Family was more than capable of providing both fish and goose for her.

Plate after plate was laid on the dining table, red, green, yellow, and white, with the freshly cooked rosy braised goose in the center, even the summer haze could see the faint white steam rising.

Ke Lian and the others came over, sitting down in their usual spots, and couldn’t wait to start eating. Yet Ke Lian found the time to diligently serve Du Xixi several pieces of rosy braised goose.

"Xixi, you’ve worked hard, eat up." Ke Lian smiled gently, so gentle that even Du Xixi felt something was off, but upon careful inspection, she found Ke Lian was always this gentle.

Since she couldn’t figure out what was wrong, Du Xixi simply stopped thinking and lowered her head to eat the pieces of "courtesy" from Ke Lian.

It must be said that the rosy braised goose is a very appetizing delicacy, with a salty, aromatic, fresh, and sweet taste that lets the tongue feel the layering of the goose meat, whether it’s the tender fat or the firm lean meat; it’s an exquisite experience for the lips, teeth, and tongue.

Du Xixi ate piece after piece, casting aside whatever was off about Ke Lian.

Du Xixi: Men? Are they more important than food? Obviously not!

Seeing Du Xixi eat happily, Ke Lian, able to serve her anytime due to his seating, raised his brows, knowingly or unknowingly, tossing a proud glance toward Miao Miao across the table.

Miao Miao just smiled, perhaps she was amused, perhaps feeling helpless, she simply picked up the communal chopsticks, and lowered her head to grab a piece of rosy goose meat.

Just as Ke Lian thought he had won, he saw Miao Miao lift the goose meat on the communal chopsticks with satisfaction and placed it into her own mouth.

Ke Lian’s smugness instantly froze on his face, as if hearing two crisp slaps echoing in his ears.

Ke Lian: Hehe, Xixi likes the food I serve her. You can’t serve her!

Miao Miao: Ha, this is food made by Miss for me, it doesn’t belong to you!

In the end, Ke Lian lost this round.

Witnessing this scene, Ke Xing couldn’t help but laugh, Du Xixi looked up in confusion, seeing Ke Xing waving his hand, seemingly in a good mood as he fed two bites of baby food to the kids.

The kids were not so young now, in addition to the milk they drank from Du Xixi, they also ate baby food regularly to train their teeth and stomachs.

Du Xixi furrowed her brows, looking at Ke Lian and Miao Miao, seeing Ke Lian with a defeated expression, wallowing in misery while eating a piece of rosy braised goose, as if it was his greatest enemy. Meanwhile, Miao Miao wore an expression of joy...

Joy from winning a battle.

Du Xixi: I always feel that I’m not strange enough and don’t fit in with everyone.

Though this lunch had a bizarre atmosphere, fortunately, Du Xixi herself said she was quite happy eating, and after lunch, everyone sat together on the sofa for a break, Du Xixi lazily yawned, planning to take a nap today.

During the Alliance Military Competition when Du Xixi was a princess of the Blue Star Empire, though she had her own resting room, to show respect to other empires, she rarely "left everyone behind" to nap on her own.

She hadn’t taken a nap for several days now.
