Liu Ruyan smiled and shook her head. "Your Holiness, that kind of food is something you can only hope to stumble upon."
She said no more, but Li Shimu could tell there was more to the story.
But since Liu Hong and his granddaughter were clearly unwilling to elaborate, he couldn't very well press the issue.
Liu Hong didn't touch his chopsticks again. He would occasionally pop a small pellet into his mouth, then close his eyes and sway his head, the very picture of enjoyment.
Fortunately, Liu Ruyan wasn't as picky. Although she was also dissatisfied with the dishes, she ate a fair amount out of courtesy.
This allowed Li Shimu to breathe a small sigh of relief; otherwise, the banquet would have become a complete joke.
Just then, the siblings Mu He and Mu Xue arrived at the banquet hall, bringing Niu Kexin with them.
