I just want to live a good life

Watching Su Nuan leave, Ye Yin whispered beside Mu Yunting: "Your Highness wants to find something for the concubine to do, so that she won't have any wild thoughts."

Mu Yunting rolled his eyes at Ye Yin and said coldly, "Who said that? I'm just hungry."

After saying that, he went straight back to his Lanyue Pavilion.

Ye Yin muttered behind him, "You just had breakfast, but you still say you're hungry. When did Your Highness develop the habit of saying one thing and thinking another?"

On the other side, Su Nuan started to get busy after returning to Duiyueju. Since Mu Yunting wanted to eat the snacks she made herself, she had no choice but to make them.

But when she actually started doing it, she found that she was not averse to it and she did it very seriously.

Mu Yunting didn't say what he wanted to eat, so Su Nuan chose to make cake because it was something she made the most times and her performance was most stable.

Previously, in order to counter Cheng Ansu's "Yipinsu", she had developed many flavors of sandwich cakes. Today, she planned to make a little of each flavor, and add a few strange flavors, to give Mu Yunting a cake adventure that would be both delicious and fun.

After working for an hour, Su Nuan finally made all the flavors she wanted.

She picked a few pieces of each flavor, mixed them into a food box, and delivered it to Lanyue Pavilion personally.

Before she reached the door of Lanyue Pavilion, Luzhu had already come to greet her.

"The Concubine is here to bring snacks to His Highness, right? Just give them to me." After saying this, Lu Zhu reached out to take the food box from Su Nuan's hand.

Su Nuan handed the food box to Lu Zhu without hesitation, and walked towards the door of Lan Yue Pavilion.

"My Lady Concubine!" Lu Zhu called Su Nuan and said, "His Highness is resting now. My Lady Concubine should go back first."

Hearing this, Su Nuan turned around and snatched the food box from Lu Zhu's hand, saying, "In that case, I'll wait here for a while, you go and do your thing."

Lu Zhu probably didn't expect Su Nuan to do such a thing. She didn't know how to respond. She stood there hesitating for a while, and finally turned around and left.

After Luzhu left, Su Nuan called Yeyin twice softly, and soon Yeyin appeared in front of her.

"My Lady Concubine, what do you want me to do?"

"I want to ask you if Your Highness slept well last night?"

Hearing this question, Ye Yin changed his usual calm temperament and asked hurriedly: "Why does the concubine ask me about this?"

"Aren't you his personal bodyguard? Who else should I ask?" Su Nuan asked as a matter of course.

Ye Yin explained: "Although I am His Highness's guard, I will not enter his bedroom casually. I will only go in when His Highness is in danger."

Su Nuan said softly, but then she changed her mind and said, "I just asked whether your Highness slept well last night. Why do you have to explain so much to me? Do I have to go into his bedroom to know whether he slept well? You can judge by his state! For example, whether he is energetic after getting up in the morning, whether he has dark circles under his eyes, whether he says he is tired... You should know these things."

"My Lady Concubine, what do you want to know after you've said so much?"

Su Nuan suddenly realized that she had been talking so much just to indirectly confirm what Lu Zhu said, because she didn't believe that Mu Yunting would rest at this time.

But as a concubine, she had to go to great lengths to verify the words of a maid, and a feeling of sadness arose from the bottom of her heart.

With a sigh, Su Nuan said weakly: "I just want to ask if His Highness is resting?"

Ye Yin replied: "I don't know. Why don't you go in and take a look yourself, Madam Concubine?"

"Can I come in?"

"You are His Highness's concubine. If even you cannot enter His Highness's room in this mansion, then who else can enter?"

Su Nuan felt that Ye Yin’s words made sense and a smile appeared on her face.

Then, under Ye Yin's encouraging gaze, Su Nuan stepped forward and pushed open the door of Mu Yunting's bedroom.

According to the architectural style here, the sleeping hall is divided into two parts, the front hall is a place for people to relax and entertain, and the back hall is the bedroom.

Su Nuan first carefully glanced around the front hall, but did not see Mu Yunting. She thought that maybe he was resting as Lu Zhu said.

Just as she was standing in front of the door, hesitating whether to go in, Mu Yunting's voice came from the bedroom at the back, "Luzhu, go see if Concubine Xia has arrived."

Obviously Mu Yunting mistook her for Lu Zhu.

Judging from his tone, he should be waiting for her. Su Nuan felt warm in her heart, and all the unhappiness she had just felt because of Lu Zhu disappeared.

She cleared her throat and said crisply, "Your Highness, it's me. I'm here to bring you some snacks."

"..."

A moment later, Mu Yunting walked out of the bedroom. Su Nuan saw that he was in high spirits and did not look tired at all. She concluded that Lu Zhu did not want her to see Mu Yunting and was interfering. She felt even more disgusted with Lu Zhu.

Su Nuan put the food box on the table and took out the cake she had carefully made. In order to let Mu Yunting eat all the cake, she made the cake into small pieces so that he could eat one in one bite.

Mu Yunting walked to the table and sat upright.

"Your Highness, these snacks are a little special today."

"What's so special?"

"Each piece tastes different, and some of the flavors will give you a 'surprise'."

Hearing her say this, Mu Yunting became interested and picked up a piece of cake and put it in his mouth.

Su Nuan looked at him expectantly, "How was it? What flavor did you try first?"

"It's very sweet and has a dense texture, like red beans."

Then Mu Yunting picked up the second piece. This time he did not put it into his mouth at once. Instead, he cut the cake in half, revealing the filling inside.

Su Nuan recognized the red pulp as red fruit at first glance.

Mu Yunting took a careful bite and seemed very satisfied with the sour and sweet taste, so he put the rest into his mouth.

This feeling of having an unknown taste with every bite was quite new to Mu Yunting. He ate several different flavors in one go and was very satisfied with the taste.

"How is it? Is it delicious?" Su Nuan asked Mu Yunting.

"Not bad, very delicious." Mu Yunting replied, picking up a piece of green sandwich and asked, "What flavor is this?"

Su Nuan pretended to be mysterious and said, "This is a surprise flavor, you have to taste it yourself."

Mu Yunting smiled slightly and put the cake into his mouth.

The next moment, the smile froze on his face, and then his face began to distort. The whole process lasted for about five or six breaths.

"Xia Qingyan!" After recovering, Mu Yunting immediately roared at Su Nuan, "What did you put in there?"

“Hahahaha” Su Nuan burst into laughter until she almost passed out. She said intermittently: “I put…I put mustard sauce. Your Highness, you…you are so cute!”

Mu Yunting, who was on the verge of a rage, was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then looked at Su Nuan with a complicated expression.

Su Nuan finally calmed down from her laughter. Seeing Mu Yunting's bad face, she quickly said, "It's just a joke. Don't be angry! I'll eat one piece, and we'll be even, okay?"

As she spoke, she picked up a green-filled cake from the remaining cake and put it in her mouth.

Mu Yunting grabbed her wrist, snatched the cake and threw it on the ground, "It's not something delicious, why eat it."

Su Nuan looked at Mu Yunting in surprise, and a strange feeling gradually rose in her heart.
