Chapter 686: Chapter 686: Want to Eat Meat? _1

"Your Majesty, it’s been eight days already."

"Did he say anything when he left?" The Emperor asked, as Xia Ye had only asked for a Holy Card from the Emperor the day he left, saying that he was going back to save his lady. It was Minister Yan who had asked for the favor on Xia Ye’s behalf since Xia Ye held no official rank at the time.

Minister Yan pondered for a moment: "Your Majesty, about Xia Ye... I have already asked him, he said he has no desire to stay in the Capital City as an official. He only wants to spend a lifetime with his lady. I’m afraid he won’t come back to the Capital City."

"Oh?" The Emperor put down the memorial he was reading: "If he does not return, wouldn’t my Dajin dynasty lose a brave general?"

"What is Your Majesty’s intention then?"

The corners of the Emperor’s mouth lifted slightly: "He will come back, I have a way!"

...

Nan Feng’s cold was finally better.

These days, Xia Ye had been making her plain congee to drink every day. She was honestly starting to feel a bit sick of it she was yearning for a feast in a restaurant.

"Xia Ye, I want to eat meat," Nan Feng stood at the bedroom door, looking at Xia Ye who was practicing his swordplay outside.

Even if he had promised not to be an official and not to do anything related to being a martial artist in the future, he still couldn’t sit idly by. Every day he got up and practiced in the courtyard.

Xia Ye heard Nan Feng’s voice and turned around, then said to Nan Feng: "You want to eat meat?"

Xia Ye walked over and held Nan Feng in his arms. Despite being sweaty from his practice, he kissed Nan Feng’s lips: "Then let me wash and feed you some ’meat’."

It took a moment for Nan Feng to react. She suddenly pushed Xia Ye away: "Where did your mind go? Not that kind of ’meat’. I mean, I really want to eat meat, chicken, duck, braised pork, shrimp!"

Xia Ye smiled, a hint of disappointment at the corner of his mouth: "I misunderstood."

"Wait for me to get full, then I’ll feed you!"

Nan Feng quickly ran into the room before she finished speaking. Xia Ye understood her thoughts and called out to her: "Alright, then let’s go to the Fulfillment Restaurant for the first meal, and we will have the second meal when we get back home tonight."

Nan Feng replied from inside: "Okay, let’s call Xue Ling and Long San as well. They saved me, I must invite them to dinner to properly thank them. By the way, I wonder how Long San’s health is doing? Xue Ling said that playing his flute would hurt his vitality."

"Don’t worry, he sent someone to bring the news yesterday that he will be fine after a couple of days of rest."

...

The Fulfillment Restaurant in the Provincial City is a rather large establishment, with private rooms inside. The ones who dine here are generally wealthy merchants or some big shots in the city.

Nan Feng didn’t have much money on hand at the moment. Business had been halted due to the issue with the mountain bandits, and she had some expenses such as wages for her workers and rent for a few stores. These were all significant expenditures.

However, Nan Feng was now returning a life-saving favor, so she was ready to throw caution to the wind. No matter the cost here, she hoped everyone could enjoy their meal.

Nan Feng reserved a private room, and ordered many of the restaurant’s signature dishes. Just as she finished ordering, Long San arrived.

Nan Feng stood up, walked over to pull out a chair for Long San: "Master Long San, please sit."

A faint smile was on Long San’s face, his complexion still as pale as usual, but he was handsome, thus still very pleasing to the eye.

Since Nan Feng had pulled out a chair for him, he graciously sat down.

"Master Long San, how is your health?" Nan Feng asked with concern.

"It is nothing serious," Long San smiled, "I can eat, drink, and sleep."

"That’s good, I ordered some light dishes, eat more later," Nan Feng said.
