Innocence (5)
Editor: Henyee Translations
Everyone looked at the old lady!
The roast fish simply smelled so nice that they all wanted to grab it and stuff it into their mouths!
Therefore, they were eager to see how the empress dowager would react.
But the empress dowager was a little slow to do so.
"Hm?" She chewed slowly. She frowned at first.
The others were intrigued by that frown.
Especially people like Mrs Zuo, who were thrilled!
Was it bad? Awful?
However, three seconds later, the empress dowager looked more and more surprised. In the end, she seemed astonished!
And her eyes widened as well.
The others found it hard to understand, because —
It was just a roast fish.
What could be so astonishing about it?
However!
The next second!
Everyone watched as the empress dowager rushed toward the grill despite her clumsy movements. She then picked up the fish with both hands the way one would hold a baby!
Wow!
