She couldn’t even eat this!
There were red dates and brown sugar in the porridge. It was sweet and fragrant. Fu Ling suppressed her drooling and obediently poured it into Su Mu’s mouth.
… .
Zi Su returned to the Qingfeng Courtyard to report to Yu Wan. Yu Wan did not say anything and let her leave.
Yan Jiuchao had something on and left the manor. Yu Wan sat in the room and waited for him to come back for dinner, but he was still nowhere to be seen even when the sky was dark. At this moment, Jiang Hai came to report that Young Master was having a banquet outside and invited Young Madam to go with him.
Banquet?
Yu Wan raised her eyebrows. Since they were going to have a banquet, she naturally had to dress up to attend. However, she did not know what the banquet was. She did not dare to dress too ostentatiously. She opened her wardrobe and picked out a lake-blue wide-sleeved dress. She let Ban Xia, who was skilled, comb it into a single bun. She also put on a golden hairpin with a pearl in its mouth. She also put on a few jade pendants. She had bright eyes and white teeth, and she looked luxurious but not without elegance. She was graceful too.
The maidservants in the room were stunned. They had long known that Young Madam was beautiful, but they did not know that seeing her every day could still make them so stunned.
“Young Madam.” Zi Su handed over a piece of red lipstick.
Yu Wan pursed her lips gently. Her lips were bright.
Yu Wan brought Zi Su out of the Young Master Manor.
Jiang Hai was stunned for a moment, but he quickly lowered his eyes and said to Yu Wan, “Young Madam, please get in the carriage.”
The master and servant got into the carriage.
Yu Wan said, “Did Young Master say which banquet to go to?”
“He said it’s at Lake Li,” Jiang Hai said.
“Oh,” Yu Wan replied and did not say anything else.
She really thought that some family had set up a banquet on the lake. When she arrived, she realized that there was no family. It was just her family.

The luxurious and exquisite pleasure boat and the even more exquisite Yan Jiuchao sat on the deck of it. Even though he was in a wheelchair, this person still had the arrogance of looking down on the world.
Yu Wan brought Zi Su onto the boat.
Yu Wan was not unfamiliar with this pleasure boat. On the day she was kidnapped by Yan Ruyu, he rode the wind and waves. Under his feet was this golden pleasure boat, but there were a thousand sailors behind him to escort him.
At that moment, he was really too eye-catching.
Although Zi Su was from an official family, how could an official’s foundation be deep? The moment she boarded the boat, she was stunned by the wealth. She did not doubt that the deck of the pleasure boat was made of gold.
“Shh.” Suddenly, Shadow Six blocked Zi Su’s path and gestured for her to keep quiet.
Zi Su suppressed the scream in her throat. Shadow Six gave her a look. Zi Su understood and followed him to a teahouse not far away.
Yu Wan smiled and did not care that the little girl had been pulled away by Shadow Six. She came to Yan Jiuchao’s side. On the right was a railing made of golden silk wood. It was about half the height of a person and had the cloud pattern emblem of the Yan Manor engraved on it.
It was said that the golden silk wood would not rot for a thousand years, or even ten thousand years. It was the wood used by the Emperor.
Yu Wan did not know if this was a little exaggerated, but she had indeed never seen anyone use this kind of wood outside the palace.
Yan Jiuchao was wearing a sky-blue brocade robe. His black hair was tied up high and he wore a white jade crown. He had an impeccable face and facial features. He was as exquisite as jade and as elegant as the moon. Even if he didn’t do anything, he was still so handsome that people couldn’t take their eyes off him.
Yu Wan squatted down beside Yan Jiuchao and looked at him with her chin in her hand. “Are we the only ones eating?”
“You think there are too few people?” Yan Jiu looked at her coldly.
Yu Wan was not angry. The corners of her lips curled up. “Yan Jiuchao, are we on a date?”
“It’s time to eat!” Yan Jiuchao pushed his wheelchair towards the table in front.
Yu Wan looked at his back and smiled. “He’s on a date with me, yet he’s still not admitting it.”
Yu Wan followed and sat down opposite him. He turned his face to look at the scenery on the lake, but Yu Wan was looking at him.
The kitchen began to serve the dishes. The dishes were more sumptuous than expected, but the portions were really exquisite. A dish that required more than ten procedures might only have two to three spoonfuls on the plate.
The chefs served more than thirty dishes one after another. The long table was filled with dishes. Yu Wan could not name most of them, so there were servants from the pleasure boat who picked up food for her. She only took a bite of each dish. Every dish was not enough, but the next dish was always more surprising.
“What is this?” Yu Wan looked at the… meatballs in the bowl and asked.
“It’s meatballs,” said the maidservant who was picking up food. However, these maidservants did not say anything about these meatballs using thirteen types of mushrooms, fifteen types of seafood, and fried snow lotus juice and goose fat.
“Why is his white?” Yu Wan looked at Yan Jiuchao’s bowl and asked.
“That’s fishballs,” the maidservant said.
“Oh.”
Why did he eat fishballs? She wanted to eat fishballs too.
Yan Jiuchao’s eating movements were very pleasing to the eye. It was a royal elegance in his bones. It was definitely not something that just anyone could learn.
On the other hand, Yu Wan’s table manners were not ugly. She was not too reserved, but she was not pretentious either, making people have an appetite.
There were too many dishes, so Yu Wan really felt that she was at a banquet. When her stomach was about fifty percent full, a servant brought a small bowl of noodles to Yu Wan and a bowl of porridge to Yan Jiuchao. Yu Wan raised her eyebrows and finished the noodles in her bowl.
He had put in a lot of effort into this meal. She could feel that she had tasted a lot of culinary skills, but her stomach was not full.
After dinner, Yu Wan sat beside Yan Jiuchao and admired the scenery.
She thought that there was nothing to see, but who knew that a civilian pleasure boat suddenly came and started singing an opera. Yu Wan did not know much about opera, but she felt that it was even more outstanding than the opera that the Empress had hired.
After that, it was time for the lute and the flying dance. The lute was mellow and the dance was beautiful. Gradually, many other boatmen and pleasure boats were also attracted. However, their pleasure boat had the best view. It was facing the center of the platform, and she could see all the musicians and dancers.
“Is this some folk music shop?” Yu Wan asked curiously.
“You like it?” Yan Jiuchao asked.
Yu Wan was in a daze. She did not care that he did not answer her and nodded.
After coming to this world for so long, this was the first time she had seen such a lively scene. The Flying Dance Queen was a Hu Dance and a Startled Swan Dance. It was much more beautiful than she had seen in her previous life. There was also a singer whose voice was so ethereal that it did not seem real.
Yu Wan liked it very much.
However, there seemed to be more than one pleasure boat tonight. Suddenly, someone shouted, “Lotus lamp!”
Yu Wan looked in the direction of the voice and saw that there was indeed a lotus lamp on the water to the south. Soon, there were two, three… a large number of lotus lamps.
The lotus lamp illuminated the water of the lake. The water was vast, rippling, and there was no shore.
Yu Wan was charmed. Wasn’t her luck too good? It was just a date, but there was singing and dancing, and the scenery of the lotus lamps…
Yu Wan suddenly realized something and turned her head to look at Yan Jiuchao with wide eyes.
Yan Jiuchao was also looking at her with a rare gentleness in his eyes. “Yu Ah Wan, happy birthday.”
No… didn’t they say there were still a few days?
Yu Wan was stunned. Her heart swelled as if it was filled with emotions that she had never felt before. She even forgot what she wanted to say and just stood there like a stunned rabbit. She looked so silly that she was bubbling.
Yu Wan did not remember how she pulled him into the room. She was a little anxious and could not unbutton it, so she simply tore it. As the young master of Yan City, he would not feel sorry for a piece of clothing.
The wind was a little cold, but her heart was burning. There was laughter and noise on the lake, but the room fell silent.
She took his hand.
She thought that she would never let go of this man in her life.
