Chowhound Survival Rules

It wasn't until Chi Huo was dragged into the third prince's palace by Cang Lin that he slowly recovered from the extremely stiff state, but his face was still quite unhappy.

"what happened?"

Sensing Chi Huo's state, Cang Lin finally stopped and began to ask questions.

Chi Huo was silent for a moment when he heard the words, and then said: "It's not that your relatives are not here..." Why were there so many people just now?

Cang Lin clicked his tongue softly: "It should be that the second cousin found out that I was not there, and then found out that I was coming back today, so he came to investigate."

To be honest, as far as the third prince himself was concerned, he didn't expect his three cousins ​​to join in the fun at all.What's more, it seems that several chief executives of the palace also came over to have a look, and glanced at Chi Huo again, Cang Lin was a little puzzled: "What's wrong with you?" .

Chi Huo shook his head: "No."

"...Then let's go and take a rest first. It's 10 am at night, can you recover after two hours of rest?" Cang Lin looked at Chi Huo's face and thought that this person might be too tired.

Chi Huo nodded: "Almost."

Cang Lin: "..." He really felt that something was wrong.

After entering the third prince's palace, a waiter came to greet him, and Cang Lin asked Chi Huo to follow the deputy head of the housekeeper to the guest room to rest, while he had to ask the supervisor some questions.Chi Huo still didn't say much about this, but that face has become completely indifferent at this time, even a little stiff - very much like the expression when they first met.

This is really not right.At this time, Cang Lin was no longer puzzled, but affirmed that there was something wrong with his foodie.However, seeing the manager's expression of "I have something urgent, Your Highness must come to listen quickly", Cang Lin paused, and finally followed the manager.

At this time, Chi Huo was already sitting on the bed in the guest room, rubbing his slightly stiff face.With a flash of the red bracelet on his hand, Chi Xiaobai appeared, holding his head up in doubt: "Chi Chi, what's the matter with you?"

Chi Huo smiled wryly when he heard the words, fell back on the bed, and muttered: "There are too many strangers, I'm not used to it."

Chi Xiaobai immediately shook his head: "Chi Chi, you didn't know many people when you were selling boxed lunches before! But you are not like this."

"What's the same? They're customers. I just need to serve them with a smile on my face. I don't need to say a word, and I don't need to know each other to chat. I can still slander all kinds of things in my heart." Chi Huo retorted, and didn't bother Besides, he buried himself in the extremely soft quilt and fell asleep.

Seeing him like Chi Xiaobai curled his lips, sat on the edge of the bed, and started searching for keywords on Yuwang. After about ten minutes, Chi Xiaobai nodded in satisfaction and said something to Chi Huo. Words: "Specific social phobia, for sure!"

At this time, Chi Huo was already fast asleep, so of course he didn't hear Chi Xiaobai's words, but if he was still awake, he would definitely retort fiercely. He really doesn't have social phobia, he's just indifferent to unfamiliar people, and it's very strange What's more, if the other party's identity is a 'customer', he can communicate normally and even enthusiastically.But if it is an ordinary person, he will show all kinds of indifference before he knows each other, is familiar with him, or gets his approval.

Brother Chi said that this is just a natural familiarity.The more familiar you are, the poorer you are, and the more familiar you are, the more unscrupulous you are. In fact, in a certain way, it should be regarded as a kind of autism.

While Chef Chi was resting, Cang Lin on the other side was face to face with the manager in his study without saying a word. Even though the manager, Uncle Mu, had seen the cold face in front of him since he was a child, he still felt that Yalishan was big. .

"...Third Highness?"

Cang Lin frowned and ignored.

Director Mu smiled wryly: "Third Highness, His Majesty attaches great importance to this mech competition with the Federation, because Admiral Zhan Mingzhou will also go, so His Majesty the King asks you to go too. Of course, there is no competition, just a special judge. After all, this is related to the face of the empire, you don't want the empire to be compared to the federation, do you?"

Cang Lin clicked his tongue when he heard this, and frowned even tighter.But he finally gave face and said: "What is it better than?"

Director Mu heard His Highness the third prince finally answered, and hurriedly said endlessly: "Of course it's mecha combat, and mecha production. But this year, in addition to these two, there is also a mental power control competition. After all, the level of physique And fighting can also respond in mecha battles, but the mental power is different, and the master of mecha production is not necessarily a master of spiritual power, so this is added."

After hearing Mr. Mu's reply, Cang Lin shrugged his shoulders undeniably, and finally nodded: "I want to take someone there."

Manager Mu showed a decent smile: "Of course, you can bring anyone you want. Moreover, even in the Federation, we can find our allies, right?"

After talking about the most important thing, Director Mu said a few other things. Their family has followed the Canglin branch for generations, so they will naturally do their best to make Canglin the leader.

After the two of them sorted out the important matters, the servant knocked on the door lightly: "Your Highness, it's already lunch time. The Empress Dowager invites you to go to the main hall."

Hearing this, Cang Lin nodded to Manager Mu, who took a few steps back and said to the door: "Got it, go down."

After that, Cang Lin stood up, thought for a while, and then walked to the guest room where Chi Huo was.The imperial grandmother said that she wanted to eat, but she didn't say that she couldn't bring other people, did she?And he must see how that guy is doing, whether he has returned to normal.

When Cang Lin pushed open the door of the guest room, he immediately saw the eating bun with his head up, squinting his eyes and puffing his face, and the foodie who belonged to him seemed to be still sleeping, looking delicious.

"Bad guy, why are you here again? Didn't you see that Chi Chi was resting?" Chi Xiaobai was never polite to Cang Lin, and similarly, the prince did not particularly care for Chi Xiaobai.Passing directly past Chi Xiaobai, Cang Lin lowered his head, put his lips almost close to Chi Huo's ear, and said softly, "Wake up."

Chi Huo didn't sleep well. He felt a tickling sound in his ears. He opened his eyes immediately and turned his head in the direction of the sound, so...

Chi Xiaobai covered his eyes, with a look of disrespect: "Bad guy! How can you eat my Chi Chi's tofu!"

At this time, the lips of Cang Lin and Chi Huo touched each other slightly, and Chi Huo's eyes widened, as if he couldn't react.The shocked look particularly pleased the third prince, Cang Lin gave a low laugh, and directly reached out to support the back of the head of the person in front of him, and pushed forward, without hesitation, deepening the kiss that was originally like a touch of water.

"Well!"

The sound of intertwined lips and teeth made Chi Huo's face quickly turn red, until Chi Huo couldn't bear it and stretched out his foot to kick someone, Cang Lin calmly grabbed the kicked foot, raised his eyebrows to admire the straight leg, and lightly Throwing it down lightly, he straightened up: "Get up, go to lunch." The expression of that speech, it is almost impossible to see that he has just kissed someone for several minutes.The most hateful thing is that it is still an iceberg face!

Chi Huo was gritted his teeth by this series of actions, this guy in front of him is definitely more cheating than him!His elder brother said that he has two personalities that collapsed before and after becoming friends, which always makes people feel weird.But compared to the third prince who always has a sullen face, who is obviously cold to the end, but can collapse at critical moments, he is definitely an extremely normal existence!

"...No." Don't even think about it, it's definitely not the two of them when eating.Chi Huo shook his head directly.

Cang Lin raised his eyebrows when he heard the words: "In a month's time, I'm going to the capital of the Federation, where there is an armor competition. Do you want to go?"

Chi Huo: "..." This kind of coercion and temptation is not moral at all.

Seeing that Chi Huo didn't speak, Cang Lin asked again, "Are you afraid of meeting strangers?"

Chi Huo shook his head, seeing the other party's obvious disbelief, he had no choice but to tell the truth: "It's not that I'm afraid, it's because I'm naturally indifferent to strangers, and it might spoil the atmosphere. This is my own personality problem. If I become friends, it's fine. If I'm a customer It's okay. But if you don't know me, you still won't talk much, um, even if I feel bad, you will directly mock or ignore..."

Therefore, in this palace, where strangers are everywhere, he will not be afraid, but he will definitely provoke many people unknowingly.

After hearing Chi Huo's explanation, Cang Lin raised the corners of his mouth happily: "I think this character is really good."

"Huh?" Chi Huo looked at him with a silly look on his face, is his mind okay?

"At least it won't be particularly attractive." Cang Lin nodded with satisfaction: "You go to the dining room with me, and then cook a few dishes for me and the emperor's grandmother, and the rest of the people just ignore it. My father and Ya Your father is not here, so you don't have to worry too much."

Hearing this, Chi Huo twitched the corners of his mouth. For the first time, he had some doubts about his character—to be honest, he really wanted to throw a plate of food on the Bingshan face in front of him with smug eyes.

In the end, Chi Huo followed Cang Lin to the dining room.

And they were the last two people to arrive. Manager Mu had already stood beside the chef and saw that His Royal Highness was bringing the chef with him. He rolled his eyes expressionlessly in his heart. Started to show off and provoke secretly.The Third Highness is always so low-key doing things that don't match his iceberg face... so cute.

"Oh, let me see, Third Cousin? You're here. Just now, the imperial grandmother was still talking about you, so I said you must have something to do to be late. Now it seems that you are looking for Is this cook coming to cook for us?" The second prince Cang Lu saw Cang Lin and Chi Huo walking in one after the other, and immediately started provoking everywhere.

Regarding this, the fourth prince looked excitedly at it, while the first prince, who was sitting in the first place, looked up at Chi Huo coldly for a few times, then lowered his eyes, as if I was waiting for dinner.The parents of the second and fourth princes present here looked at Chi Huo with great interest and scrutiny.

"Are you stupid or lost your head? I just said two hours ago that he is mine exclusively. Do you want to take rat poison without my permission?" Cang Lin replied blankly. Brother, and before Cang Lu's face turned black and he spoke, he pulled Chi Huo up to the Empress Dowager, and said, "Grandmother, do you like sweet or salty?"

And Chi Huo looked at the old lady in front of him, and opened his mouth wide. This is actually the imperial concubine of the empire? !He finally understood why so many people wanted to rob his bracelet.

The imperial concubine looked at Chi Huo and stretched out her hand to touch it with a smile, then nodded: "Finally, the body is a little stronger, but there is still a long way to go, we must continue to work hard."

Chi Huo couldn't say anything, he could only nod his head repeatedly.

"Well, I like sour and spicy food. What kind of food do you want to cook?" The imperial concubine continued to smile, and Cang Lin next to her twitched her mouth, was it on purpose.

Chi Huo thought about it quickly when he heard the words, and said: "Four main courses are pickled fish, hot and sour saliva chicken, husband and wife lung slices, and chopped pepper fish head, and then I will serve you cold lotus root slices and fried baby dishes , and then make a sauerkraut tofu soup, and finally make you a hawthorn cake, what do you think?"

The imperial concubine smiled quite satisfied when she heard so many dishes, while the third prince next to her turned pale. He had never enjoyed such kind treatment before!Didn't you say that you will be cold when you meet strangers?Why didn't he show any indifference! !

Compared with Yu Su, the third prince, the other members of the royal family present felt a little envious when they heard the name of the dishes one after another. Drooling, but he snorted coldly with his face unchanged, and said in a voice that everyone could hear: "It sounds good, but I'm afraid it's not as good as our imperial chef. That's interesting."

Hearing this, Chi Huo turned around and looked at the second prince who was full of calculations. With a blank face, he glanced expressionlessly, then turned his head and walked straight to the kitchen.

"I won't give you food again, you worry too much."

The second prince: "..." Nima!Big disrespect! !I am the prince of the empire! !

The third prince: "..." Well, as expected, this character is really good, and, thinking about it this way, even being disrespectful is not bad.

The crowd watching the royal family: "..." Does the third prince already know the rhythm of finding helpers? !Suddenly feel that these two people have?evil?Affection! !
