Rebirth of the Ninth Princess

The first floor was a public dining hall, the second floor had private seating, the third floor offered VIP rooms, and the fourth floor served as a lounge area for resting and entertainment.

Ouyang Qingcheng specifically chose the second floor to consider Yuanjiu's lack of experience with human interactions.

Exposing her to the world's complexities would be beneficial for her.

The second floor was a melting pot, where people from all walks of life mingled.

Unlike the first floor, which was open and featured ordinary tables and chairs for the general public, the second floor was more spacious, clean, and elegantly decorated.

Wind-type magic crystals embedded in the walls kept the area cool and comfortable, even during the sweltering summer.

The service on the second floor was also significantly better than that on the first floor.

The attendant led them to the second floor, and as soon as they entered, they immediately drew the attention of everyone present.

The previously lively hall fell silent for a moment before soft whispers resumed.

There was a seat by the window, and Yuanjiu naturally sat on Ouyang Qingcheng's lap.

In order to avoid drawing too much attention, Cailun follows Ouyang Qingcheng's orders to sit across from them.

In the Qi Huan Realm, rice was the staple food.

However, wheat did not exist in this world.

Yuanjiu always had wheat-based foods in her previous life, so learning that wheat was unavailable in this world had left her secretly sulking for quite some time.

At just two years old, Yuanjiu's teeth were still not strong enough to handle tougher foods, so she could only eat soft vegetables and thoroughly cooked dishes.

Noticing the child, the attentive attendant thoughtfully prepared a small spoon just for her.

Yuanjiu tugged at Ouyang Qingcheng, who was feeding her.

"Daddy, I can eat by myself. You should eat too."

She felt fully capable of handling it by herself.

Ouyang Qingcheng feigned a hurt expression. "Does my darling no longer like being fed by Daddy?"

He had fed her like this for every meal back in the palace.

Yuanjiu quickly shook her head. "Of course not! I—"

Seeing her flustered, Ouyang Qingcheng relented and stopped teasing her. "My darling, Daddy enjoys feeding you. I'll eat once you're full."

He picked up a silk napkin and wiped away the food residue at the corner of her mouth.

Sitting across from them, Cailun smiled wryly as he watched this scene, which was still a rare sight even after a hundred years.

Yuanjiu rested her small hands on the table's edge, and every time she swallowed a bite of food, she would tilt her head back and look up at Ouyang Qingcheng.

Her adorable mannerisms were impossible to ignore.

Understanding her unspoken request, Ouyang Qingcheng gave a gentle smile and picked up a tender slice of mushroom. "My darling, open your mouth."

The warm and intimate atmosphere between them seemed impenetrable, but inevitably, there was always someone oblivious to the mood.

"This gentleman, my lady wishes to see you," a voice interrupted.
