32. You're Too Good At Teaching Your Daughter

Xia Yi's fork and knife fell to the ground. In her eyes, the items were more terrifying than a billion demons.

Bitter gourd.

Why would such a devilish food exist in this world?

Could there really be people who love bitter gourd?

"Xia Yi, don't you want to eat bitter gourd?" The smile on Xia Lulu's face intensified.

"How am I supposed to eat this?!"

"Really? It's quite delicious."

Xia Lulu even demonstrated by eating a slice of bitter gourd, her expression one of enjoyment.

"Hmm, Lucia's cooking skills are truly top-notch."

Lucia's expression didn't change much, she just bowed her head, "Thank you for your approval, Your Majesty."

All of this was clearly a show for Xia Yi. Xia Lulu had a smug expression on her face, as if to say, "Is eating bitter gourd difficult?"

Just the smell of bitter gourd was enough to make Xia Yi feel faint, let alone swallowing it.

If broccoli was still within the realm of edible, then bitter gourd was absolutely not!

"Take it away, take it away!"

Xia Yi pushed the plate in front of her away, reacting very dramatically. Her expression was one of extreme rejection. Anyone with eyes could tell that this was her most hated food.

Lucia looked at Xia Lulu. After all, everything here was up to the queen. If the queen gave the order, she could force the bitter gourd into the princess's stomach.

However, Xia Lulu just waved her hand.

"Then take it away, Lucia. If Xia Yi doesn't like it, we won't force her."

"Eh?"

Xia Yi was very surprised.

Why did Xia Lulu suddenly stop tormenting her?

"Really?" She looked at Xia Lulu suspiciously.

"Yes, you're all grown up. There's no need to force these things. However, my dear, if you give up here, it's as if you've wasted all the broccoli you've eaten before. I won't fulfill your request~"

"Wu!"

Xia Yi's sore spot had been hit.

In order to be able to leave the Dragon Clan palace, she needed a legitimate reason, and Xia Lulu's promise could fulfill this condition.

If it were any other time, she wouldn't care about this promise.

But it was different now. She had made up her mind and was waiting for the right opportunity. She had to seize this chance.

Although she didn't want to admit it, this Silver Dragon Queen was like a blind cat that had run into a dead mouse. She was lucky enough to have grasped Xia Yi's weakness without even realizing it.

It was really hateful!

But Xia Yi couldn't lash out, she could only endure it.

Just as Lucia was about to take the bitter gourd away, Xia Yi stopped her in time.

"Wait, don't go yet!"

Lucia was a bit surprised, "Princess, do you want to eat it?"

"I… will eat it."

Lucia's gaze turned to Xia Lulu again.

Xia Lulu's attitude changed, "No, my dear, I don't want to make things difficult for you, don't eat it."

"No!"

"Haven't you heard the saying? A melon forced off its vine is not sweet. There's no need to force yourself just to please me."

"That's not true! A forced melon is very sweet, and it quenches thirst!" Xia Yi argued anxiously, "I'm not forcing myself!"

Lucia was stunned on the side.

How did the queen and the princess's positions suddenly reverse?

Just a moment ago, the queen wanted the princess to eat bitter gourd, and the princess was adamantly against it.

Now, the princess wanted to eat bitter gourd, but it was the queen who didn't agree.

She really couldn't understand how the queen was subtly adjusting the princess's attitude.

She was really good at teaching her daughter.

"Oh? My dear, do you want to eat bitter gourd? It's not someone else forcing you?"

"I, I…"

Xia Yi's face turned red with embarrassment and anger, but she had no choice but to admit it.

"I want to eat bitter gourd myself, no one else is forcing me, Mother, please, let me eat it!"

Xia Lulu enjoyed the expression on her daughter's face at this moment, it was very amusing.

"Alright, Lucia, put the bitter gourd down."

"Your Majesty's orders."

Lucia obeyed and put it back down, even specifically finding a new set of cutlery for the young princess.

Xia Yi looked at the bitter gourd that had returned to her, her face troubled.

Is eating bitter gourd difficult?

Not eating it was simple, just two steps: lift the plate and stuff it into your mouth.

At worst, drink some water and swallow it down.

But the most painful part was that in front of her mother, she had to maintain etiquette. She couldn't do something so rude, it would damage the dignity of the royal family.

She had to remain elegant, which meant she had to taste it slowly.

Xia Yi was almost in tears. She sneaked a glance at Xia Lulu, who had an innocent loli face but a wicked smile. It was really infuriating. If she punched her hard, she should cry for a long time, right?

Anger!

Rage!

Fury!

Dragon princess… no, a gentleman's revenge, ten years is not too late!

Xia Lulu, in the future, I will pour bitter gourd juice into your mouth. Even if you beg for mercy, I won't let you go!

Xia Yi took a deep breath, her eyes looking as if she was going to the execution ground. With a determination to die, she started to taste it.

She had never been so miserable before, this was even more painful than the Dragon King's curse!

After eating just one slice, the silver-haired loli was already teary-eyed. Large tears fell and landed on her dress. The sight was so pitiful that even Lucia was moved.

"Princess, or… let's forget it?"

"I can't forget…! Look, I'm still… eating!" Xia Yi's speech was unstable.

Xia Lulu was very satisfied, "Xia Yi is becoming more and more obedient. Even when facing food she doesn't like, she can still maintain table manners. Excellent."

Hearing this, Xia Yi, who was being tormented by the bitter gourd hell, regained a bit of consciousness. She quickly confirmed, "Mother, about the promise…"

"Don't worry, I will give it to you, Xia Yi. Is there anything you want?"

"I haven't thought about it yet, I'll tell you next time…"

Xia Yi felt like her brain was about to shut down, but as long as she got the Silver Dragon Queen's promise, that was good enough!

While maintaining her elegant manners, the bitter gourd was sent into the little princess's stomach piece by piece. As she saw the bitter gourd diminishing, she felt like she was about to be freed from hell.

She swore that after this meal, she would never touch bitter gourd again.

"Xia Yi, how does the bitter gourd taste?" Xia Lulu asked with concern.

"Bitter gourd, it's… really good!" Xia Yi replied, constrained by the situation.

Finally, it was over.

The little princess almost fainted, her vision was getting blurry.

"Great, my daughter has finally overcome her picky eating habits. Since that's the case, I'm sure you'll be very happy to finish this dessert drink after dinner~!" Xia Lulu could barely hold back her laughter.

After the Silver Dragon Queen's words, a fresh drink appeared in front of Xia Yi, almost making her lose her breath.
