Only after Liu Feng sat in the seat of honor did Mina take Anli to sit beside her.
"Growl..."
Anli stared at the food on the table, her throat constantly rolling as the rich aroma of meat continuously flooded her nostrils, causing her saliva to flow incessantly.
Today's lunch consisted of stir-fried dishes: braised pork, spicy chicken chunks, scrambled eggs with tomatoes... among others, a dozen or so different dishes.
"Mina, did you specially make so many dishes to welcome me?" Anli asked in a small voice, gently tugging at Mina's skirt.
"Huh?" Mina was slightly startled, licked her lips, and shook her head. "No, this is just the daily meal in the castle. Everyone eats like this usually."
Well, the 'daily meal' Mina mentioned only had a dozen or so stir-fried dishes because it included her. After all, Mina, the big eater, was not just a joke.
When it was just Liu Feng alone, he might not even finish five or six dishes.
Anli, who had just arrived, didn't know this, so she thought to herself, "Those wicked nobles, how indulgent they are. They need a dozen dishes just for a meal. But why do I feel so envious?"
"Let's eat. It won't taste good if it gets cold," Liu Feng was the first to start eating and urged the other two to join.
"Mmm!" Mina didn't hold back and put a large piece of braised pork on Anli's plate. "Eat quickly. This is a special braised pork that you can only get here with Young Master."
"Uh..." Anli held her chopsticks with her small hands and tried to use them, finding it difficult to pick up the meat as the chopsticks kept slipping to one side.
She was so hungry that she wanted to use her hands, but seeing that Mina was eating on chopsticks, she didn't want to embarrass herself.
"Bring a set of knife and fork," Liu Feng instructed the maid beside him.
"Yes!"
Soon, a knife and fork were brought to Anli. She quickly figured out how to use the fork and took her first bite of food.
"So, so, so delicious," Anli's eyes narrowed, her fox ears constantly twitching, and her tail swaying back and forth.
Seeing Anli's delighted expression, Liu Feng thought she was similar to Mina when she first arrived, except that a few bowls of refined rice congee were enough for Mina.
Anli was completely captivated by the delicious food. She had never eaten such delicious food since her birth and suddenly realized that the life she had lived before was not meant for a orc.
Mina wouldn't hold back when it came to food, of course, only in the castle. In her words, the most embarrassing moment of her life was when Young Master saved her, so she didn't need to pretend to be a lady or a well-bred young lady.
Liu Feng was full after eating two bowls of rice. Watching the cat-eared girl and the fox-eared girl competing for food, he found that even the petite Anli ate more than he did.
"Phew..." Anli slumped in her chair, patted her little belly, and felt lazy all over. This was the most enjoyable and satisfying meal she had ever had.
"Humph, stupid Anli, you ate too much," Mina pouted. She was only seven-tenths full, and most of the food went to Anli.
"You've already gained weight. You can't eat any more; otherwise, you'll sag," Anli glanced at Mina's chest and sneered.
Mina looked down at her chest and caught Liu Feng's gaze. Her face turned red in an instant. She reached under the table and pinched Anli's small waist, scolding, "You're going to get it. You dare to say anything."
"Hmm..." Anli smiled proudly and then asked seriously, "Liu Feng, how do you view orcs?"
"Here it comes", Liu Feng knew. If he didn't answer well, the other party probably wouldn't open up to him but would just go through the motions or even leave West Sun City.
"Which aspect are you referring to?" Liu Feng gave Mina a reassuring smile. "You know, I don't know much about orcs. The first orc I met was actually Mina."
"What?" Anli's eyes widened in disbelief as she stared at Liu Feng and exclaimed, "Mina was the first orc you've ever met?"
Mina was also stunned. She didn't expect that she would be the first orc Young Master had ever seen. No wonder Young Master was so curious about her at first.
"Indeed, Mina was the first orc I met when I came to this world," Liu Feng confirmed.
"How is that possible? You're a noble," Anli still couldn't believe it, but her intuition told her the other was telling the truth.
She couldn't imagine that Liu Feng had only been in this world for a month. Anli thought Liu Feng had never seen a orc in his twenty years of life.
"I only became a noble recently," Liu Feng shrugged and glanced at Mina, chuckling, "Actually, I think orcs are quite cute."
A blush appeared on Mina's cheeks, and her heart was filled with joy. She was the first orc Young Master had ever seen.
"But... but other humans don't think so," Anli looked at Liu Feng with complexity and bitterness. "They treat us like animals."
"I don't know how others deal with orcs, but in my territory, orcs are no different from commoners," Liu Feng folded his arms across his chest.
"No different from commoners?" Anli was stunned, staring blankly at Liu Feng. Not everyone could say such a thing.
"That's right. Orcs are also human beings, just with a few differences."
Liu Feng stood up, walked to the window, and looked outside, smiling, "I may not be able to control others at the moment, but in my territory, as long as they follow the rules, orcs are my subjects, and I will protect them the same way."
