I saw that the dining table was properly set and arranged, there were so many dishes prepared.

Please come daily crown prince, I want to have this type of food daily

The prince sat down at the middle chair and I saw that on the right side my cousin sister sat

I was okay with that and was going to sit on a different chair but before that my sister started

“Sorry I sat on the wrong seat sister, let me change my seat” She said softly but I saw she was not even getting up she just said that

And my father and stepmother looked at me like I was wrong making her pretty angel get up and waiting for me to tell to not get up its fine but they don’t know that I am not that idiot Xi Lanyon so I really waited for her to get up, I did not really mind if you did not comment but now since you have commented I will wait

But my stepmother beat me

“No worries sweetie it’s a small matter, Xi Lanyon won’t mind she can sit beside you” my stepmother said with small smile on her face.

Obviously she wanted her daughter and crown prince to marry but I came in between. But I was hungry so did not want to argue or wait anymore

I minded but I was going to sit down but till then the prince asked his steward

“Chris do you mind to bring a chair here” the prince said while pointing right side beside his chair

Chris picked the chair beside my sister and brought it to the right side of prince

So I knew that seat was for me so without waiting for anything I went

“Xi Lanyon please sit” he said and I was mesmerized was the crown prince really so loving to me the villain. But I know in the ending she will just be the side women so she doesn’t want that ending so its better to not be close to this crown prince

Now I am jealous of my sister who is going to have all the love of the crown prince. But still it was nice to get this respect from the person and the scowl on my parents face it feels like I disturbed their plan to get their daughter close with the crown prince

Everyone was quiet and was waiting for the crown prince to start eating but he placed food in my bowl and looked at me to start

I did not mind so I also picked some meat from the table and placed it in his bowl

And then we started eating

It was really good not that emperor good but still good, I saw that the crown prince did not eat much, even my sister only had 2-3 pieces of meat.

Did she not want to have all types of food here

So we all had our lunches and then the crown prince said

“I will be departing now, thanks for the lunch, it was delighful” the crown prince said to my parents while departing with his steward

I looked at him with a smile since he did treat me very nicely, its better if we do not have any enmity between us

But then he said which was something unexpected

“Lady Xi Lanyon, as you know about the rabbit festival coming soon all your clothes and ornaments will be sent to you by the imperial palace since now you are a part of the palace” He said and then left

I remember there was no such thing because in the book she wore a very bright pink color with heavy ornaments and people made fun of her. Did I read the wrong book, why are we not moving with the storybook’s plotline

“I forgot about the rabbit jade festival and did not buy any new clothes, I will just wear my old clothes” my second sister said while giving a sad smile to my parents.

“No no why will you wear old clothes, your sister will be getting so many clothes from the palace. I don’t think she will mind sharing some clothes and jewelry with you isn’t it Xi Lanyon? My stepmother asked me

Ofcourse she was the female lead she needs everything proper even if I say no then also everything will be hers. Its better to be good to my sister as well or else I might have the same ending as the plot

“Yes sure sister, choose whatever you want” I said with a smile and then went inside my room again to paint my room.

Now whenever I get free time, I will start painting and after some time I will make money by selling my painting

I will be rich, imagining myself with a gold-filled room I was very happy and started painting again.
