Chapter 293 Is there any wine?

Yun Han suddenly realized something, her hands, which were hanging by her sides, tightened, then relaxed weakly.

Outsiders praised him and Shen Qingli for their harmonious relationship, but in their memory, the two had been together for so long and there had never been such a moment, and Shen Qingli had never done anything like this to him.

At this moment, Yun Han suddenly wondered if Shen Qingli really loved him.

"Hey, you there at the door, what are you doing here?" Jia Lan glanced at the tall figure standing stunned not far away, put down her chopsticks, and spoke in an unfriendly tone.

Shen Tang also turned her head to look and then saw Yun Han standing at the entrance of the small courtyard not far away, half of his body was in the shadows, and he was holding something in his hand. He looked rather lost and dejected.

I don't know how long he looked at it.

Shen Tang frowned, showing no intention of getting up to greet the guest, and said coldly, "What are you doing here so late at night?"

"...I'm sorry about what happened this time. I've come to apologize." Yun Han walked into the courtyard, not wanting to disturb them, and put the things on the ground.

The beastmen all looked surprised, seemingly not expecting him to come and apologize so late at night.

Shen Tangyi was also surprised. She didn't expect him to personally bring gifts to apologize. She glanced at them and saw that they were all very expensive gifts, some of which were even impossible to buy even if you lined up to buy them. However, she wasn't very interested in these things now and could only say that it was a token of his goodwill.

Ultimately, Shen Qingli was the culprit behind the rumors, and it had nothing to do with the Yun family or Yun Han. Judging from what Yun Han said in the council, he probably knew nothing about it either.

Shen Tang opened her mouth, thinking of a reason to make him take these things back, but then she saw Yun Han suddenly sniff the food on the table with some surprise and curiosity. "It smells so good. What are you eating?"

He hasn't had a chance to eat since he argued with Shen Qingli, and he's not in the mood for food.

Upon entering the courtyard, he smelled the increasingly rich aroma and swallowed hard, subconsciously asking, "Can I have some?"

After saying that, Yun Han realized what he had said and looked embarrassed, but he didn't rush to change his words.

Jia Lan's brow twitched slightly. Where did this wolf get the nerve? He was about to tell him to leave when Shen Tang quickly stopped him, "Guests are guests, don't say anything unpleasant."

Jialan had no choice but to swallow her displeasure again.

Shen Tang gave Yun Han a somewhat friendly smile, "Since the young master of the Yun family has come all this way, it wouldn't be good for him to go back on an empty stomach. Xiao Jin, go inside and get another stool. Lu Xiao, go to the refrigerator and get some more meat and vegetables."

As the saying goes, one cannot hit a smiling face. After all, the other party came to apologize, and their sincerity was evident. Shen Tang could not refuse the young master of the Yun family. It was just a meal, nothing serious.

Xiao Jin was a little reluctant, but he still listened to her and went inside to move another stool, but placed it on the farthest side, the furthest away from Shen Tang.

Lu Xiao didn't say anything; maintaining good relations with the Yun family was something he hoped to see. The Yun family patriarch was now quite old and had lost his supernatural abilities, so the Yun family's power would soon be transferred to Yun Han. Easing tensions between the two families was a good thing for Shen Tang right now.

He went back to the kitchen, grabbed a large plate of meat and vegetables, and cooked them in the clear broth.

Yun Han was initially a little uncomfortable, but soon, she was captivated by the delicious meal and no longer cared about anything else.

He was the young master of the Yun family, and he had tasted all sorts of delicacies in the world, yet this was the first time he had ever eaten such delicious food, far superior to the skills of those so-called famous chefs in restaurants. Of course, the most important factor was the quality of the ingredients. He had never seen many of the vegetables before, and he had no idea how the vegetable balls and other noodles and meats he couldn't name were made.

He couldn't help but exclaim, "I've lived for over twenty years, and this is the first time I've ever eaten such a delicious meal."

Seeing him like this, the beastmen couldn't help but recall how amazed they had been when they first tasted Shen Tang's cooking. Lu Xiao smiled and said, "This was made by the female instructor when we were in the polluted area."

Yun Han was stunned for a moment, his gaze falling on Shen Tang. He gave a bitter laugh, somewhat wryly, "I never knew that you, who were pampered since childhood, could do these things."

Shen Tang casually replied, "The conditions in the polluted area are harsh, and many things are hard to swallow. Naturally, I had to learn a thing or two, and I was forced to learn them gradually."

The beastmen knew she was talking nonsense, but they were too lazy to explain.

Upon hearing this, Yun Han felt even more conflicted. She could imagine how difficult it must have been for this pampered noble princess during her time in the polluted area.

At the same time, he also had doubts. He had seen everything Shen Tang had done on the battlefield and hated the rebels. Was it really her who had an affair with the rebels back then? Could there be other hidden stories?

Yun Han lowered his head and ate his meal in peace, without saying anything to disturb him. Soon, everyone stopped paying attention to this little incident and continued to eat.

Shen Tang would also occasionally add extra dishes for the beastmen, letting them taste them and ask if they wanted to improve the flavor next time, perhaps by adding less salt.

The dining table was soon filled with a cheerful and relaxed atmosphere again.

Amidst the laughter and chatter, Yun Han appeared exceptionally lonely.

However, since he was an outsider and had gotten a free meal, he had no right to say anything more.

Looking at the warm and harmonious scene before him, he felt a feeling he had never experienced before. This must be the atmosphere between partners, full of the warmth of home. Unfortunately, he was experiencing it for the first time with someone else.

She was his ex-fiancée, whom he had broken off the engagement with.

A bitter feeling welled up inside Yun Han, and he could hardly eat the delicious meal. He put down his chopsticks, turned to Lu Xiao, and asked, "Is there any wine?"

Lu Xiao was the only one from the Beast Husband who treated him relatively well and didn't deliberately make sarcastic remarks. Hearing his words, he nodded and replied, "Yes."

He got up, went inside, grabbed a bottle of wine, and handed it to Yun Han. "This is also the kind of wine that the female master taught us to brew. It tastes very good, but it's a bit strong, so be careful."

Upon hearing this, Yun Han felt a tightness in his chest. He poured himself a bowl of wine and drank it all in one gulp.

After the meal, Yun Han drank quite a bit of alcohol, but he seemed to have a good tolerance for it. Apart from his face being a little red, he spoke clearly, so Shen Tang didn't pay much attention to him.

Shen Tang wanted him to take the gift back, but Yun Han said, "I never take back what I give away. If you don't want it, just throw it away."

"..." Such expensive and good stuff, how could I bear to throw it away?

Fine, Shen Tang simply accepted it. After enduring so many days of malicious slander, it was normal for her to receive a small apology gift. She could always give it to someone else later.

She said sincerely, "Thank you for speaking up for me in Parliament as well."

Yun Han shook his head and chuckled, "I wouldn't say I'm speaking up for you on purpose, but these are my honest words. You've done so many good deeds on the battlefield. If I were to be unable to distinguish right from wrong, remain silent, and even turn around and frame you, I would be the real bastard."
