Detective Ghost Empress

250 Enemies to lovers?

” You guys sure are lucky,” Once Ji Yu left Liu Hui Ying walked over to where Zhai Heng was standing and looked at the big lunch box that he was holding in his hands. She has never thought over this much in her past life but now that she was looking at the lunch box in the hands of a handsome man from a girl, she has to admit that she was a bit jealous, if she got free lunchboxes like these when she was in the modern world, just how much money she would have saved!

What a tragedy, she was being treated so coldly by women like this all because she was a woman herself! Where was her thank you gift damn it? Did she not save Ji Yu as well? Were men everything in the eyes of such young girls? How can they be like this?

“Handsome guys like you are really in demand aren’t they?” She commented further as she sniffed the air and enviously looked at the lunch box, back then she was working as a detective, she only got to eat the meat of Sika deer when she solved a case of a multimillionaire. He had his own personal captivity where he used to raise deer, back then the venison that she ate was one of the most smooth and mouthwatering venison she ever ate in her life.

And back then she ate the venison served by the multimillionaire it’s scent was something that she drilled in her head which was why she could immediately recognize the scent of the braised venison from the lunch box.

Zhai Heng, who was praised for no reason was speechless as he looked at Liu Hui Ying who was staring at the lunch box that he was holding in his hands and said, ” If you don’t mind then we can share this lunch box?”

He did not like the hungry and envious gaze with which Liu Hui Ying was looking at the lunch box, it was not something so grand that the Empress of their imperial city would be envious.

” You said it yourself! There are no takebacks!” Liu Hui Ying’s eyes lit up as she looked at Zhai Heng who agreed to share the lunch box with her. When she was dragged into this world she thought that there was nothing good here but at least she can now eat expensive venison for free! At least something about coming to this place came out to be good!

She raised her hand to pat Zhai Heng on the shoulders but then she paused in her movements and then said, ” Come on stretch your hands like this,”

Zhai Heng looked at her and then he looked at the lunch box that he was holding in his hands before he returned his gaze to Liu Hui Ying who cleared her throat and then took the lunch box from him before smiling and eagerly asking him to do as she asked him to, ” Come on stretch your hands as I did.”

.....

Not understanding what she was trying to do Zhai Heng did as she asked, he stretched his hands in front of him and then crossed them before bending them back and then patting himself on the shoulders as per the instructions that were handed to him by Liu Hui Ying.

” There you go, I cannot praise you but you can surely praise yourself,” Liu Hui Ying nodded as she turned to look around their surroundings and then pointed at the small pavilion that was standing next to a lake with red pillars and a golden roof that was lit up under the moonlight. ” There let’s go there and eat dinner, I was in a hurry to solve this case and I did not eat anything.”

‘ Your majesty before coming here you ate at least three tables full of food, at least think before lying through your teeth !’ Nanny Gong who heard Liu Hui Ying lie without even batting an eye was speechless, she knew it very well that her mistress might even withstand the cold shoulder of the Emperor but she will never withstand going hungry!

Even Qui Ai was stunned by Liu Hui Ying but because her missy was the cutest in the world when she was acting like this, she chose to ignore everything else.

Zhai Heng, however, was the one who was stunned to his core…he has seen many women getting charmed by jewels, clothes and courtyards but this was his first time seeing a woman who was getting charmed by a lunch box. He watched Liu Hui Ying skip (She didn’t) all over to the pavilion that was in front of the lake and could not stop his heart from beating a bit too fast.

Was he going to eat a meal with her majesty? Strictly speaking, he should not be doing something like this, she was his brother’s wife and he shouldn’t stay alone with her——

” What are you dozing off there for?” A charming voice like that of a snake charmer called to him and Zhai Heng raised his head and looked at Liu Hui Ying who was looking at him, even though she was dressed as a man, maybe it was because he knew that it was her but even that manly appearance of her could not hide her charm causing Zhai Heng to feel stifled as his breathing started to stagnate and he looked away from Liu Hui Ying’s.

Why was this happening to him? There was no way he was interested in the wife of his own brother right? There was no way.

” Zhai Heng, if you don’t come then I will eat this lunch box on my own!” He heard the woman call him again and this time, his feet that were stuck in the ground started to move.

A part of him knew that he should not be walking over to where Liu Hui Ying was, that he should make sure that the two of them would not be alone together but at this moment, he did not care about anything else but the fact that his name sounded really sweet when called by her.
