    After Chu Qingchuan returned to her room, she was in no mood to learn the house rules anymore. Instead, she paced around the room, thinking up ns to escape with creased brows and a troubled look on her face.


    Sui’er carried a tray of food into the room, then set it down on the table. “Concubine Ny-Nine, it’s time to eat. If you can’t think of one now, you’ll have plenty of time to do soter.”


    Chu Qingchuan sighed in defeat, then sat at the table to eat. She looked at the three tes of food and soup, then furrowed her brows. “Why is there not a spot of oil? Also, it looks like the same food as yesterday. This won’t do. I can’t eat it.”


    With that said, Chu Qingchuan pped her chopsticks down on the table with an annoyed look on her face.


    “Fine, don’t eat it,” said Sui’er coldly. “Besides, you’re the only one who’ll starve in the end, and if you die of starvation, the madam will definitely hold a massive feast in celebration.”


    Chu Qingchuan thought about it for a moment, then cried sorrowfully. “So I must eat? If I don’t eat, then I won’t have any strength to run away! How did I, princ... end up like this?”


    Sui’er saw that Chu Qingchuan finally pick up the chopsticks and grinned, as she stood by her side and watched her eat.


    Chu Qingchuan shot a nce at Sui’er and asked, “Sui’er, what did you eat earlier?”


    Sui’Er stared nkly at Chu Qingchuan and replied, “Concubine Ny-Nine, have you ever seen a maid eat in front of a master?”


    Chu Qingchuan thought about it for a moment, but shook her head and tly reply, “Nope.”


    “Concubine Ny-Nine, do you want to know what I eat every day?” asked Sui’er with a wicked grin.


    Without any hesitation at all, Chu Qingchuan replied, “Of course I want to know. Quick, tell me.”


    “Although I eat at the same table as the other servants, I have over a hundred different dishes. There are delicacies from many towns, as well as a fair share of fish and meat that wealthy families eat,” said Sui’er proudly.


    Sui’er looked at Chu Qingchuan who was drooling and smacking her lips repeatedly, then said, “Concubine Ny-Nine, do you want me to name each and every dish?”


    Chu Qingchuan suddenly snapped back to reality, as the expression on her face instantly became ghastly. However, she still couldn’t control herself from drooling.


    Chu Qingchuan thought about the exotic food she used to eat in the pce and drool dripped uncontrobly from the corner of her mouth. She looked like a hungry wolf. Her eyes were filled with gluttony.


    Sui’er covered her mouth to secretly hide her smile. Thisdy was really too easy to fool. Although she had told the truth, this stupiddy’s expression was really exaggerated.


    Chu Qingchuan then looked at the nd food in front of her and grimaced. She nced at Sui’er who stood behind her, and suddenly had an idea. “Sui’er, I want to pretend to be you and eat those exotic foodster. Will that be okay?” She said with a smile and a face full of anticipation.


    Sui’er red at Chu Qingchuan like she was a fool. “If Concubine Ny-Nine isn’t afraid of being executed, then go ahead and pretend to be me. I don’t mind,” she said chillingly.


    “Why would I be executed?” Chu Qingchuan asked immediately with a nk look on her face.


    Sui’er twitched the corner of her mouth, speechless. Then, rolled up her sleeves and reached her right arm out for Chu Qingchuan to see.


    Chu Qingchuan squinted to read the word, ‘ve’ on Sui’er’s arm, then immediately sighed breathlessly. “It looks like I won’t be able to pretend to be you and eat exotic food. Why are the concubines of this castle worse off than the servants when ites to food? Why?”


    Sui’er grinned proudly, then replied in a chilling voice. “Concubine Ny-Nine, hurry and eat your vegetables. If you don’t eat them quickly, they’ll turn cold and taste even worse.”


    Chu Qingchuan was still reluctant to give up so easily. She furrowed her brows and thought about it seriously. Then, all of a sudden, her eyes lit up. “Sui’er, how about you steal some backter?” She said with a smirk.


    Sui’er scoffed, then replied coldly, “When we leave the dining hall, we have to do a full-body check to prevent people from taking forbidden things outside.”


    Chu Qingchuan pounded both her hands on the table and wailed. “Whoever said that ‘every cloud has a silver lining? Wahhh wahhh...”
