<h4>Chapter 690 - Use your skills instead of words.</h4>
Shin Tinming''s brows furrowed as he looked down on his te to find what was wrong, but nothing cameprehensible. Chen Rui has also had no idea. She as well looked at her husband''s te but the result was the same, nothing reasoned Li Xue''s words.
At the side, Shin You Jun''s expression became more sullen as he looked at Li Xue having such an easy talk with his father. Though his father has never been a tough personality to handle, still he has also not been an easy-going person whom people could talk so freely and discuss their true thoughts. To date, even being his own son, he has not discussed the things this hesitant free, then howe this woman was so at ease?
"Hey, are you pointing out my father''s eating habit now?" He suddenly asked from his seat, looking grudgingly at Li Xue.
Li Xue''s eyes at once snapped to look at him. Seeing his pouted lips like a kid, she could not help but smile, then nodding she agreed.
At her agreement, the young prince felt nothing but teasing. Clenching his fingers on the table, he med, "Do you know, none has ever dared to say that? What makes you think you are capable here?"
On his words, Shin Tinming was about toe forward to soothe the situation but held himself back seeing his wife''s gestures. He frowned a bit, not understanding his wife''s thoughts behind holding back.
"Never dared to say, doesn''t mean things have always been right." She said to the young man with a smile, before turning back to the king. "Furthermore, it''s amon knowledge that anyone would have. Egg yolks are rich in iron content which will further help in blood cell generation. Having just egg protein won''t be a help, Your Majesty".
Shin Tinming was dumbfounded at that information. Not because he doesn''t know any of that, but because none has ever cared to tell him. Even though the queen has tried, he has always ignored. "Ah, I don''t .." He thought to exin but a peal of softughter interrupted his words in the middle.
"Haha … Xiao Xue, you know you are the first one to say that. His Majesty has always been a picky eater. Even if I stop him, he never listens. You know, Sir doesn''t like the nd taste of egg yolks, so he always avoids it. Since with the growing age, he has be a type of hard-headed personality, the chefs and maids no longer dare to question him." Chen Rui said,ughing out. Her eyes, not missing the look of loss on the face of her husband.
To say that Li Xue was not surprised would be a lie. After knowing the picky food habits of the king, she doesn''t know how she should rte it with the upright personality she has always read in the magazines and newspapers. Smiling a bit to hide her surprise look, she shook her head. "If the problem is with the nd taste of it, the chefs here can try it in another way that suits His Majesty''s taste. I can say there are many ways." She said giving a solution but it only made the queen shake her head.
"They have tried but failed. Now, even I have lost hope, because he would simply not listen to me." Chen Rui said, shrugging his shoulders off and Li Xue doesn''t know how to proceed with the topic.
But right at that moment, from the side, Shin You Jun jumped in. "Do you even now want to question our chef''s skills. Just for your information, I will tell you they are the best ones anyone can get in the city. Don''t underestimate the royal tag with them. If you really want to doubt their skills, use your skills instead of words".
"You Jun, didn''t your mother say to note your words and action?" Shin Tinming was the one to chide first which only made the boy purse his lips.
"Dad, have you also turned your back on me now? Mother was already favouring her over me and now, you have also be the same." The young crown prince said in a disheartened tone and for the first time, Li Xue felt the pain for him. Though she knew that it was kind of childish but still she can feel it along. Not to forget that she was all used to that, given that she has always seen the clear biasness of her parents towards Wen Sying.
Smiling at their first familiarity, Li Xue asked, "Do I have a chance to show my skill here, Crown Prince?".
Shin You Jun was dumbfounded until he heard his mother. "No need, Xiao Xue. You are our guest here. Just ignore him. He is just being childish at the fact."
Of course, Li Xue knew. Being the only child to the king and the queen, she could expect this kind of attitude from the prince. But also being a mother herself, she had an idea how important it is to solve children''s insecurities.
Smiling, she shook her head. "It''s okay, your Highness. I have no issue. I just want to have a try. It won''t take much time if only you could allow it."
Chen Rui sighed as she exchanged some nces with her husband. Then nodding, called out for the butler. "Mr. Cao, please take Xiao Xue to the kitchen and also make sure to keep some maids at her service.".
The butler nodded, before guiding Li Xue to the kitchen. "Mr. Cao, can I have a little talk with the chefs here? Actually, I want to know what all vours they have tried before."
The old man nodded with understanding and led her way to the kitchen.
Outside, back in the dining area.
"You Jun, you were really too much earlier. Do we treat the guests like that?" The Queen asked harshly, really being disappointed with her son.
But this time the young kid was also displeased at his parents. Pouting, he said, "I don''t think you and father treated her like a guest, Ma. And above all this, Dad, didn''t you say that we should always be ountable for what we say. Since she questioned our chef''s skills, she should present her reasons to be righteous enough to make us believe first".
"You Jun, that''s enough", Chen Rui felt her head aching at her boy''s attitude, but she also knew that she could not help it.
"Ma, that''s okay. If I will be proven wrong. I will not hesitate in asking her forgiveness. But this time I am sure. A woman cannot be good at both biking and cooking skills at the same time." Shin You Jun said in a victorious smile, getting all confident on his own.
