【Then let's choose another one.】

Twenty years.

Just then, Emperor Youming also grew up.

This prosthetic leg will last him long enough to last until he grows up, so it's a good deal.

[Alright, host, the system will activate the exchange when you begin treating him.]

Xiao Tang lowered her eyes and approached Di Youming.

"Little one, what brings you to the garden today?"

"Can't I come?" Di Youming glared at her with a pained expression. "And women? Who are you calling a little one? You're the little one!"

He's an "adult" now!

Of course, Xiao Tang did not comfort him despite his overly emotional state.

She smiled and said, "Well, you're getting on in years, it's time to go back to school."

At my age...

Emperor Youming's exquisitely beautiful face immediately darkened.

Although he's not a little kid, he's not an old man either.

snort.

She's such an unlikable woman!

The more arrogant he was, the more Xiao Tang wanted to pet him, so she acted faster than she thought and quickly ruffled his hair.

Di Youming tried his best to avoid her hand.

Just as Xiao Tang was enjoying herself, a large hand grabbed her halfway.

"What are you doing?"

Before Xiao Tang could respond, the man forcibly pulled her hand away from Di Youming's head.

Xiao Tang even faintly detected a hint of sourness in his tone.

What's wrong?

[Did the vinegar jar spill? Why does it smell sour?]

The man's expression remained quite somber as he glanced at Di Youming. "I'll send you to a private school tomorrow."

Of course, Emperor Youming refused.

He disliked being mocked and scorned by other children, and his face darkened as he shook his head vigorously.

"I don't want to go!"

He retorted in a childish voice.

“Husband, don’t be in such a hurry. He’s still a child. It’s not impossible for me to send him to a private school after I’ve healed his leg.”

After she finished speaking, she glanced at Di Youming, who was looking sullen, and found it amusing.

This child has such expressive features.

The death of his own mother must have left him with some psychological trauma, right?

But... who exactly is this child's father?

That's just too tragic.

Xiao Tang stared at the child for a long time.

Di Jingling's eyes flickered slightly, and she asked in a deliberately profound tone, "You like children?"

Startled by his voice, Xiao Tang exclaimed "Ah!" and blinked softly, saying in a low voice, "I...I still quite like it!"

Why did you suddenly ask her if she likes children?

Immediately afterwards, she saw the corners of the man's mouth slightly curl up.

The curve of his lips revealed his wickedness and satisfaction.

Xiao Tang: ? ? ?

What does this seemingly successful conspiracy/scheme indicate?

Xiao Tang was full of question marks.

"My lord, why are you suddenly asking me this? Is it because...?"

"I like it too."

"???"

I didn't realize you liked that.

[Oh right, judging from how you treated the young emperor and Di Youming, it really did seem quite convincing.]

But... what does this have to do with whether I like it or not?

"When...are we going to have a child?"

The man asked in a very serious tone.

This isn't the first time this question has been asked!

However, this was the first time she had asked the question in front of a child.

Xiao Tang was so frightened that she didn't dare to make a sound. She looked up for no reason and met his burning gaze.

Even though Di Youming pretended to be mature, he was still very curious about such "profound" questions.

He opened his big, bewildered eyes.

For the first time, a look of confusion appeared on his face.

"Uncle, Aunt, how did you have your children?"

"Although I am still young, I will get married and have children in the future, so I want to learn in advance."

Xiao Tang's face turned bright red upon hearing this, and she gave the child a sharp rap on the head.

What's there to learn!

This kid looks like he's being corrupted by the villain.

The child, who had just been flicked on the forehead, cried out, "Why did you hit me?"

Although I wasn't actually crying, I was still very angry.

He glared at Xiao Tang.

He shrank back when Di Jingling glared at him again.

hateful!

This woman is completely lawless because she is spoiled and pampered by the royal uncle!

“Husband, let’s go inside and talk. How can we say such things in front of the child? Don’t you agree?”

Xiao Tang took Di Jingling's arm and hurried back into the house.

Close the door.

The whole process was completed in one go.

The children, kept outside, watched with bated breath as the door closed without any mercy, their excitement palpable.

Damn it!

Don't they consider him when they whisper to each other?

Xiao Tang grasped Di Jingling's large hand, "Husband, we're just saying, we're still young."

【We've only just started dating, but... but you can't be going to rush things like this!】

[Big villain, have you been getting restless lately? Your budding heart is fluttering!]

It's okay, I'll cover it for you, it'll stop getting all fussy soon.

As if possessed, she actually reached out her two hands and covered his chest.

I inexplicably felt a strong heart beating in my palm.

[Holy crap, what kind of bizarre behavior am I doing...]

She even found her own stupid behavior somewhat funny.

Let go.

Just as I was about to put it down, he suddenly grabbed it tightly.

He took her hand, solemnly placed it to his lips, and gently kissed it.

Like a feather brushing past.
