LOVE AND BETRAYAL
THE TASTE THAT EVER EXISTED

Just now that Madam Yang got off the carriage she had already been greeted by Yang Yuwen who had also just returned from the meeting at the palace he had just attended.

“ Grandma...Where have you been all day?...do you feel happy ?..”, asked Yang Yuwen warmly.

Madam Yang chuckled at her grandson's question. She immediately invited Yang Yuwen to enter the house while chatting.

“ Hey little cat !!!..do you keep an eye on grandma now !!!..”, said madam Yang pura – pura angrily.

Seeing her grandmother pouting, Yang Yuwen only laughed widely while struggling spoiled in the grandmother's arms.

“ This grandson is only worried about the condition of grandma..”, said Yang Yuwen sulked.

“ Grandma just met an old friend at Bai's residence. Here is a parcel for you..”, said madam Yang while handing a parcel from matriarch Bai to her beloved granddaughter.

Both Yang Yuwen's eyes were brightly lit after opening the parcel where he saw a small jar filled with square pieces of various types of beans that fused with caramel, looking very delicious and tempting.

“ A special snack from Bai's residence..”, said Yang Yuwen as he opened the glass jar and took one of its contents.

“ No.. Madam third, Bai Cheung's wife made this. It's called the naugat bean.....You can enjoy it inside. Grandma is very tired now and wants to rest. You enjoy the snack slowly and do not disturb grandma..”, said Madam Yang as she stepped quickly into her room.

After enjoying the sensation of the snack in his mouth, Yang Yuwen rushed towards the living room because he remembered that there were two friends waiting there.

In the living room he saw two young men wearing black robes sitting waiting for him.

One of the young men had a handsome face he was Heng Yuan and the one sitting next to him was a thick-browed young man with a slightly older face was Kong Lie.

Kong Lie and Heng Yuan are the top students in the wealth school who will take the exam in a few days to graduate and become court officials.

Very idam position – covets everyone. Because in addition to having a high status, court officials can also automatically raise the position of his family in the community.

Kong Lie who saw that Yang Yuwen was carrying a small setoples sweet snack in his hand felt a little strange and started to ask.

“ Yuwen...what are you holding?...”, asked Kong Lie curiously.

If it was a snack that would be served to them why Yang Yuwen continued to hold it tightly, that was the question that existed in the mind of the two themes.

Yang Yuwen chuckled at Kong Lie's question and immediately placed the jar on the table and opened the lid.

Next, he ordered his servant to pour spice tea as a friend to drink the sweet snack.

“ This is a snack from Bai's residence, the name is naugat bean..”, said Yan Yuwen as he took a piece of naugat bean and ate it very fruitfully.

As a young man born to a wealthy family, Kong Lie was already used to the various delicious foods and snacks he ate every day.

He had often heard about the deliciousness of the snacks produced by Bai's residence all this time, but it was a pity that he still had no chance to try it.

And now, he gets that chance. Of course this is not there – just let it go. Kong Lie instantly took out a piece of the naugat of beans and a second later his eyes sparkled brightly.

All his life he had never tasted this snack. The sweet and savory taste mixed into one mouth makes the tongue can not stop swaying.

If the two young men seemed to enjoy the snack very much, another case with Heng Yuan.

As soon as he heard the surname Bai mentioned, he immediately remembered Fan Jainying, his childhood sweetheart who had married the third young master of the Bai family and became the young mistress there.

He recalled how their last meeting that for Heng Yuan was a painful one all his life because Fan Jianying said for the young man to forget all the memories with him.

Something that until now still can not Heng Yuan believe and always think of it as a nightmare, once awakened all will be good – just as good as ever.

Yang Yuwen saw that Heng Yuan looked dazed and started to call out to him, causing the man's daydream to collapse instantly.

“ Grandma told me that the one who made this snack was the third madam of the Bai family.”, Yang Yuwen said with a big smile and put a piece of peanut butter back in his mouth.

Without the two youths noticing, Heng Yuan's body immediately stiffened upon hearing Yang Yuwen mention the name of the third madam.

“ What are you saying, third madam.it means Bai Cheung's wife..daughter of both Fan families and is their legitimate child, Fan Jianying.”, Kong Lie was surprised.

A second later Kong Lie had set his eyes on Heng Yuan who was still frozen.

“ Yuan..are you not close enough to the Fan family. Tell me, are all the rumors circulating true ?..”, asked Kong Lie enthusiastically.

He was quite curious because if the rumors circulating in the community were true, there was no way that the girl who was just a hobby of dressing up and shopping could make a snack as good as this.

Moreover, he said he was very spoiled and arrogant. So, if he has a snack that is so good, of course he will enjoy himself without wanting to share it with others.

“ Even though I am quite close to the Fan family, after all I am an outsider.so it is impossible for me to enter the inner page let alone see the second miss of the Fan family.”, the, heng Yuan said lying.

Kong Lie felt foolish to have asked something that was already clearly the answer. Anyone knows, only – people can enter the courtyard in the Fan family residence.

No one had ever seen clearly how the real faces of the family members were. Even Fan Nuan who often took part in the race always used a veil to cover his face.

All of that was done so that their identity was unknown to many people because it was prone to being targeted by people who were not happy with Fan Shaosheng because of his position that was very close to the emperor.

As well as the status of the Fan family, which for some people has a hidden mystery because it can keep the emperor's family enthroned until now.

“ Sorry, I was sassy to accidentally accuse you like that.”, Kong Lie said feeling guilty.

Heng Yuan immediately patted Kong Lie on the shoulder slowly as if to say, “ Is fine – what...”.

After all, he could not offend Kong Lie given who his family was and Heng Yuan felt he would need the young man in his future life.

Seeing that Heng Yuan was fine and relaxed again, Kong Liepun was greatly relieved. He then immediately sipped the spice tea that was in front of him.

“ Oh yes, is not the third madam also an expert in the manufacture of spice tea. If this is the case, I think chef Li Ziqi is no longer needed in the Fan residence.”, Kong Lie said casually.

“ Of course he is no longer needed there because chef Li Ziqi has died.”, said Yang Yuwen sadly.

“ How can ?..why do I not hear it ?..”, said Kong Lie surprised.

“ It's only a few close people who know. According to my grandmother she died in an explosion in the main kitchen. I thought that Bai's residence would no longer have such a delicious snack after Li Ziqi died. But with the third madam, I am sure they will no longer feel worried.”, Yang Yuwen explained.

Kong Lie who saw Heng Yuan had not felt the snack at all immediately picked him up a piece and immediately put it into his best friend's mouth as soon as he saw it open.

If everyone felt the snack was very sweet and savory, another case with what Heng Yuan felt today.

He felt that the beans tasted very bitter. Even his bitter taste was so penetrating that it reached into his heart.

Heng Yuan was seen chewing with slightly watery eyes as he recalled the sad memories between himself and Fan Jianying.

If not for the matchmaking, perhaps Fan Jianying was already his and after he graduated and became a court official, right now, the girl will definitely be taken directly to the residence that has been prepared as a surprise gift for the girl who accompanied the – times of hard times so far.

Her heart ached again when she imagined that the first one to taste this delicious snack must be Bai Cheung who had become Fan Jianying's legal husband at this time.

Under the cover of his wide arm, one hand of Heng Yuan was seen clenching tightly until the book – of his knuckle turned white.

Even so strongly he pressed, he did not feel at all if his fingernails stuck into his skin and made him bleed.
