A Foodie Transmigrated into the Palace Chapter 1375 - 1373: He Wants to Beat Himself Up

The ones before weren’t all that extraordinary, but the look of enjoyment on the shop owner’s face at the end made Yue Er very curious.

Is it really that amazing? She was a bit bewildered.

"What’s the smell? Let me try it!"

She mimicked the shop owner’s behavior and tried it, then...

"Achoo!"

"Ah... Achoo!"

"Achoo! Achoo!"

After just a few tries, she had tears streaming down her face, and her cheeks were red.

"This... Achoo!"

"Is this thing just to make people sneeze?"

The shop owner handed her a tissue while laughing obsequiously.

"Not really, it can also be used to treat illnesses!"

Yue Er lost interest and, after calming down, turned the small gourd over in her hands, concluding,

"It’s not really useful, but the gourd is quite pretty!"

She put the little gourd into her sleeve, satisfied, and left with Ying Luo.

...

Sometimes timing is just that coincidental.

She had just stepped out the door when she ran into someone.

Both of them were moving quickly, and when they collided, they fell over clumsily.

"Ouch!"

"Who is it!"

Yue Er cried out in surprise as she fell to the ground, dragging Ying Luo down with her.

Luckily, neither master nor servant was hurt, and they soon stood up.

After tidying their clothes and looking up, Yue Er’s eyes widened instantly.

"So it’s you!"

The other person was just as incredulous.

"Why is it you!"

The two stared at each other, their eyes practically sparking, as if they were about to engage in a battle right there.

"Shih Shaoling, is there anywhere you’re not! Do you walk without watching?"

Shih Shaoling was also getting agitated.

"Do you watch where you’re going?"

"You did it on purpose, didn’t you!"

Yue Er glared fiercely.

"On purpose? I couldn’t even see who you were, how could I do it on purpose!"

Shih Shaoling sneered sarcastically.

"Who knows if you really couldn’t see or if you were just pretending!"

Yue Er was exasperated.

"Hey, how can you talk like that!"

Ying Luo pulled her away.

"Alright, let’s go, Your Highness!"

Yue Er knew Shih Shaoling was always like this, so she decided to ignore him and prepared to leave after tidying her clothes.

At that moment, the shop owner suddenly rushed out.

"Young Master, you’ve dropped something, don’t forget to take it!"

Yue Er turned back to see it was the little gourd.

She was about to take it and thank the shop owner, but Shih Shaoling snatched it away.

"Hey! Shopkeeper Liu, didn’t we agree that this was reserved for me!"

"How could you sell it to someone else?"

Yue Er laughed when she heard this.

"Hey, how unreasonable! The shopkeeper can sell to whoever he wants, what right do you have to intervene?"

"Do you think you own this shop?"

Shih Shaoling was anxious and didn’t bother with Yue Er but rather confronted the shopkeeper.

"What’s going on?"

The shopkeeper had a wry smile and looked frustrated.

"Young Master Shi, I know you like this snuff, and you’ve bought quite a bit from me before!"

"But this bottle, this young master here did come first!"

"In business, I can’t just cater to you!"

"Besides, I did promise to reserve it for you, but you’ve passed the time I agreed upon!"

"If I wait any longer, this thing will go to waste!"

The explanation was reasonable, leaving Shih Shaoling speechless.

Not knowing how to respond, Shopkeeper Liu suddenly suggested.

"How about... you apologize to this young master and ask him to let you have the snuff?"

Just now, he clearly saw that it was the young master who bumped into the other first, so he should apologize.

Unexpectedly, Yue Er immediately refused when she heard this.

"No way!"

Almost at the same time, Shih Shaoling also said the same thing.

To ask him to apologize to a girl and offer her money for her thing, it was unimaginable; he simply couldn’t do it.

But still...

He looked at the snuff bottle in her hand, feeling an undeniable urge to possess it.

After all, it was his favorite snuff!

Shopkeeper Liu was silent, thinking: If you’re not willing, you must not like it enough.

Yue Er was also silent, thinking: Don’t even think about it, I wouldn’t give it to you even if I threw it away!

Shih Shaoling was silent too, thinking: Ugh, I should have known better than to be so stubborn!

Now he regretted it. Could he salvage the situation?

He really wanted it, but how could he speak up?

After an uncertain period of silence, Yue Er finally couldn’t stand it any longer and glared fiercely at Shih Shaoling.

"You’re crazy!"

Then she left with Ying Luo.

Inexplicably, Shih Shaoling followed them.

Yue Er was a little surprised.

"Why are you following me? I don’t have what you want!"

Shih Shaoling was full of regret and wanted to apologize, but his words came out as...

"You took my snuff bottle, of course I’m following you!"

Seeing that Yue Er was furious, he went ahead and added fuel to the fire.

"A gentleman doesn’t take what others love; the Fourth Princess surely understands this principle!"

His tone was filled with unprecedented disdain and scorn.

The moment he spoke, he wanted to slap himself.

Oh, Shih Shaoling, you bastard, is it that hard to say a humble word?

But when he spoke again, it was the same as always.

No humble words, no pleading, not a hint of humility.

His attitude was as arrogant as a bandit robbing someone.

Hmm...

Angry, Yue Er headed home, leaving him there, chaotic in the wind.

...

Back at Fengyu Pavilion, Yue Er was in a bad mood.

Ying Luo served the princess lunch and helped her lay down for a nap, then cautiously left the courtyard.

Yue Er intended to nap on the bed, but she tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

Shih Shaoling’s infuriating words lingered in her mind.

She felt very uncomfortable.

She was a princess, and strictly speaking, they were somewhat like brother and sister in training.

Why did that bastard tease her endlessly every time he saw her?

Clearly, he wasn’t like that to others!

She wanted to suppress him with her royal status, but he simply wasn’t afraid.

She didn’t want to pay him any mind, but every time she was in a good mood, he would show up like a troublemaker.

Out of nowhere, he would ruin her good mood.

Simply...

He was just like an obnoxious scab that couldn’t be shaken off.

...

After feeling awful for a while, Yue Er’s eyes turned redder and redder.

After a while, she took a few deep breaths, set down the snuff bottle, and unintentionally fell asleep.

When she woke up again, it was already dark outside.

The days were getting cooler and shorter, and night fell earlier.

Yue Er got up to change clothes, wash up, and have dinner.

Dinner was plentiful, but she didn’t have much of an appetite, and after eating a few bites, she had the food taken away.

After the meal, she went to read as usual.

Normally, she could review the assignments given by her tutor before sleep, but today...

She couldn’t focus on a single word from the book.

Her mind was a tangled mess.

"Sigh!"

After trying hard to focus for a long time, she finally gave up.

She threw aside the book and went to wash up and sleep.
