The Emperor's eyelids twitched; had someone else taken over the shell of his Little Concubine? Where had his playful Little Concubine gone?

Now this pretentious one, who didn't quite hit the mark, though still very cute, wasn't the mischievous Little Concubine he wanted to cuddle with.

He subtly continued, "Let the meal be served, and let my Beloved Consort join me."
Lian Hua, upon hearing the words "Beloved Consort," got goosebumps. Oh, how cheesy His Majesty sounded when he said it so seriously; he could outdo her in pretense, making her quite uncomfortable.
Despite her thoughts, she managed a forced smile and bowed, "Thank you for your graciousness, Your Majesty."
