Chapter 9 - King Rui's Eldest Son

Mo Junhao said that he wouldn’t blame her. He waited for a while, but Dong Hui and Shi Qingxue seemed completely unaware of their embarrassing situation, and did not mention the destruction of ingredients in the kitchen at all.

He couldn’t wait any longer, so he had to start the topic first, “I saw the kitchen messed up, and auntie was embarrassed. I wonder if there is anything that I can help with?”

Shi Qingxue sneered in her heart, secretly saying that she was really blind in her previous life. Why did she feel that Hao could be like a god and could save her and her mother from such an embarrassing situation?

This man was clearly malicious, he dug a trap and waited for them to jump into it!

At this moment, they kept silent, but he was ready to push them down at any time! What a great brother of her!

She didn’t hold back, and asked back with a cold look that seemed to be smiling, “Your Highness, I don’t know what you think you can do to help?”

This question was indeed not polite, but Mo Junhao thought that he knew about Shi Qingxue’s pride. So he just took it as she was in a bad mood, and said more softly, “Is Qingxue suffering from the lack of ingredients, and there is no way to start the banquet?”

The question was right on the point. Even if Dong Hui was pulled by Shi Qingxue, she couldn’t help but be surprised when she heard the words, and asked: “Is there a solution, Your Highness?”

Mo Junhao nodded with a smile and did not be deliberately mystifying. He seemed very empathetic and said, “It happens to be that we will host a banquet in our house these days, so we have prepared the ingredients in advance. If you need it, I can order someone to send the ingredients immediately, and the dishes will definitely be served on time at 2 o’clock.”

Dong Hui did not expect that there was such a coincidence, and she looked at Shi Qingxue subconsciously.

Shi Qingxue secretly gave a sign to Dong Hui, expressing her disagreement.

In her last life, Mo Junhao won Shi Junhe and Dong Hui’s preference with this favor, and made Shi Qingxue fall for his tenderness, and finally led to their unfortunate marriage.

At this moment she was awakened and was unwilling to accept this person’s pretentious flattery anyway.

But at this time, Zhou Ruyu aside who was watching all this said again, “Isn’t Hui always capable? And there is a daughter with a silver tongue. Even if there were no dishes on the table when the banquet began, how could our mother embarrass you?”

Dong Hui’s expression froze. With Mo Shujun’s dislike to her, if there was really something wrong with the birthday banquet, Mo Shujun would never spare her.

Having figured out the key, Dong Hui quickly nodded to Mo Junhao, “Your Highness, I’m afraid that we need to bother you…”

“Mother!” Shi Qingxue shouted in shock, interrupting Dong Hui’s response.

But her mother didn’t know about Mo Junhao’s sinister intentions. At the time, she still thought that it was just Shi Qingxue being unpleasant with the Fourth Prince, and quickly whispered to comfort her, “Qingxue, don’t be wilful. Now the guests are waiting for the dishes to be served. If anything goes wrong, your third aunt is going to cause me big trouble!”

But it was because Mo Junhao had predicted this that he deliberately set a trap for you to go into it!

It would cost a lot to make a prince do a favor!

Shi Qingxue shouted secretly in her heart, anxious and angry. But even the smartest woman couldn’t cook without rice. Even if she was clever in some emergencies, there was no way to solve this urgent need without any ingredients.

Just when Shi Qingxue was extremely anxious, a cold male voice suddenly came from the door, “Excuse me.”

Everyone looked at the kitchen’s door together, and saw a young man standing quietly in the sun, wearing a purple brocade robe, with a cold look. The facial features were as fascinating as the elaborate carving by a craftsman. Shi Qingxue was stunned looking at him.

Shi Qingxue did not expect that she would see Mo Junyang, the enemy of her in the previous life. Different from the bitter hatred when she saw Mo Junhao, she couldn’t hate Mo Junyang. Instead, she subconsciously set aside her sight with a guilty conscious for no reasons.

Why did Mo Junyang, an unknown son as a hostage, appear here?

“Why are you here?” Mo Junhao asked, which was Shi Qingxue’s question in her heart.

However, Mo Junyang only glanced at Mo Junhao coldly. He looked at Dong Hui, and his tone was as cold as ever, “The Prince remembers that princess royal fond of cook’s dishes in the palace. He specifically asks me to bring some fresh ingredients and order the cook in the palace to come to help.”

If Mo Junhao’s help could solve the urgent need, then what Mo Junyang had brought was undoubtedly the pennies from the heaven.

Then, even if Mo Shujun knew about the destruction of the ingredients, she could not blame her.

After all, was it possible that ingredients brought from the palace and the dishes made by the cook in the palace were worse than those in the Shi Family?

Dong Hui felt that she should have been pleased, but when she saw Mo Junyang’s cold face without a smile, why was she worried instead?
