adorned with mushroom chicken soup
loaded seed and snow ear soup cold
noodles with shredded vegetables Crystal
buns crystal shrimp dumplings fruit
jelly and a few assorted cold dishes
although the breakfast portion was
modest it was nonetheless abundant
signifying that their standing within
the family had not diminished
significantly yesterday s meal had also
been quite ample and delectable even
Yuan Ru and the others had fared well
not subjected to any harsh treatment it
was unclear how guien had managed to
quell the family s anger while
maintaining such privileges giu tontion
savored each bite occasionally feeling
full taking nearly half an hour to
finish fortunately guen maintained an
elegant and composed demeanor during
meals seeing his daughter as good
appetite he intentionally slowed his
Pace to accompany her janton set down
her Chopsticks using a clean napkin from
the table to dab her mouth she smiled
contentedly remarking eating without
attendance makes the meal all the more
enjoyable then we shall no longer

GE Shen paused for a moment saying your
mother and I once enjoyed such freedom
in our meals before we adopted those
cumbersome Customs father have you truly
never suspected that the saintus was
responsible for mother s death the

complexion drained of color and after a
brief silence he shook his head I do not
know the saint sest I a revered figure
within my black witch Clan she embodies
