Happiness came so suddenly!

On Sisi's rosy cheeks, a big, bright smile bloomed, even more radiant than the summer sun.

The little girl, with her short arms, tugged at a corner of Nan Rong Jinghua's silver-white robe and excitedly headed towards the exit of Yongqing Palace.

"Let's hurry up and go, let's go! Awoo~ Sisi is going to go play outside the palace~!"

Helian Ci, sitting a few steps away in a wheelchair, silently withdrew his gaze. Tsk, what a naive little coward.

Standing to the side, Yue'er looked longingly at Helian Si, who was being held in Nanrong Jinghua's arms. A little grievance lingered in her heart. Little princess, don't you want your servant anymore?

Yue'er realized the truth: Nanrong Jinghua really had no intention of taking Yue'er out of the palace with him. He had finally gotten a chance to be alone with Asheng, so how could he let anyone interfere?

**

The Imperial Palace.

Inside a very elegantly decorated carriage, a tiny little person, with their little bottom sticking out, was clinging to the carriage window frame with their short hands.

Its bright, grape-like eyes curiously surveyed the scenery along the way, even the two high palace walls.

Helian Si didn't let it go either, his eyes darting around, "Are those uncles patrolling with weapons the Imperial Guards?"

How majestic and imposing he looks!

"What is Sisi looking at?"

Nan Rong Jinghua, fearing the little girl might fall, sat down beside her, her gaze hidden beneath the long silk robe.

Quietly watching the little girl's profile, the deity's thin lips, which had been slightly pursed, were gently upturned throughout the journey.

"Look at the patrolling uncles."

Having satisfied her curiosity, Sisi withdrew her gaze, her grape-like, moist eyes turning to Nanrong Jinghua's face.

Nan Rong Jinghua neither dodged nor avoided the girl's gaze, but the curve of her thin lips turned up even more.

Helian Si swallowed hard, completely lacking any self-respect. "Master, you're so handsome..."

Hmm, like a deity, that's right, similar to the otherworldly air about the Heavenly Dao Father, just not very likable.

Hmm, my own baby is still the cutest!

Thinking of her little darling, Sisi felt a warm glow in her heart. Hmm, when she leaves the palace later, she must buy some delicious food to bring back for her little darling.

Wow, she's such a loving mom to her baby!

Upon seeing the smug expression on the little girl's face, Nanrong Jinghua's expression tightened for a moment.

The upturned corners of her lips gradually faded, her heart trembled uncontrollably, and her slender fingers, with their distinct knuckles, tightened slightly beneath her silver-white embroidered robe.

When he looked at the little girl, his voice, deep and resonant, carried a hint of cautious probing and nervousness.

"Sisi, who are you thinking about?"

"I miss Father Emperor, hehe~" Helian Si was so engrossed in being a loving mother to her child that she didn't notice the change in Nanrong Jinghua's emotions.

Helian Nie… Nanrong Jinghua breathed a slight sigh of relief; the tension and fear in her heart quietly dissipated. She raised her hand…

He pulled the little girl into his arms, and as she looked up at him with a puzzled expression, Nan Rong Jinghua gently curved his lips into a smile.

"Does Sisi like the teacher?"

No one knows how nervous and anxious Nan Rong Jinghua was when she asked that question.

Ah Sheng, in this life, would you still like me?

Helian Si blinked, looked at Nan Rong Jinghua, and tilted his head.

Then, revealing two sharp little tiger teeth, she smiled sweetly at Nan Rong Jinghua and said, "I like it."

I like all the handsome men in the world~.
