Meng Jiuan's condition has recently improved and he has started wandering around the capital again.
However, when he heard Yun Bixian say that the engagement between the Yun family and the Taifu Mansion had been dissolved, he still showed an expression of surprise on his face.
"Solved? Why so suddenly?"
"Wasn't it rumored a few days ago in the capital that Master Liu of the Imperial Tutor's Mansion was madly in love with Second Miss Yun, and would rather cancel his engagement with the Lin family and marry Second Miss Yun?"
The innocent look on his face made Yun Bixian feel angry but he couldn't vent it.
His hands hidden under his wide sleeves were clenched into fists. He gritted his teeth and was about to speak when he saw Meng Jiuan smile.
"I'm so sorry, I was very sick recently and my mind is a bit confused."
"Lord Yun mentioned breaking off the engagement. I now remember it. I did hear about it."
"Why, Lord Yun, do you dislike Young Master Liu's frivolousness? Men are all the same. Lord Yun, look at your son, isn't he..."
As he spoke, Meng Jiuan immediately raised his hand to cover his mouth.
Seeing that Yun Bixian's face was so ugly that it could not be described, he suppressed the smile in his heart and apologized to him with an embarrassed look.
"Excuse me, Master Yun, this cannot be said, right?"
Yun Bixian wanted to get angry but couldn't.
Today was his birthday party, and he was more than ten years older than Meng Jiuan, who was a warrior who only knew how to use violence.
If he confronted him at his doorstep today, the reputation of the entire Bachelor's Mansion would be ruined in the future.
The neatly trimmed nails dug deep into the flesh of the palms.
Yun Bi first suppressed the rage burning in his heart, then raised his head to look at Meng Jiuan. He curled the corners of his lips and said, "It's okay, Zimu, lead Master Qin and Master Meng to their seats."
Yun Zimu had only seen Meng Jiuan use violence before, but had never seen him be so eloquent. He was actually a good talker.
Walking in front and leading the way, Yun Zimu's eyes occasionally fell on the three people behind him.
The villain in Li Shengyi's heart laughed so hard that he fell down, and the tear marks on his little face were wiped away by Qin Songmo and Meng Jiuan together.
At this moment, her eyes were curved and she was smiling with her teeth showing.
This cute and lovely look caught Meng Jiuan's eyes. He couldn't help but feel itchy with his fingers, so he raised his hand and gently pinched her little face.
"So happy, huh?"
Li Shengyi did not answer, but just looked up and gave him a thumbs up.
[Before, I only knew Meng Jiuan was a reckless man, a love-brained man who would rush into anything without thinking.]
[After meeting him today, I never imagined that Meng Jiuan would be so powerful.]
[What's this called, 'A man should be looked at with new eyes after three days of absence'?]
It was the first time that Little Radish Head heard words of praise for himself.
Meng Jiuan thought he had heard it wrong and felt a little dizzy.
He lowered his head and buried his huge head in Li Shengyi's neck.
Before Li Shengyi could react, he heard him say in a coquettish voice, "Shengyi, I feel embarrassed when you praise me like this."
Li Shengyi & Qin Songmo: ...
"Come to daddy, Chengyi."
Qin Song's dark pupils darkened slightly as his limelight was stolen.
At this moment, Yun Zimu was still leading the way in front, and Qin Songmo stretched out his hand to take his little daughter back into his arms.
Li Shengyi cried out "Ah" and immediately stretched out his arms, letting him hold him in his arms.
From one warm and broad embrace to another cold and thin embrace.
Li Shengyi lowered her head and sniffed Qin Songmo's arms. After a while, she raised her head and smiled sweetly at the man, "Daddy, you smell so good."
The low pressure around Qin Songmo was instantly healed by his little daughter's words.
The originally cold and hard eyebrows suddenly became soft.
He pursed his lips and responded softly.
By the time Yun Zimu invited the three people to the table, he found that most of the guests had already arrived.
After leading the three to the seats of honor, Yun Zimu glanced at Li Shengyi, who was held in Qin Songmo's arms. After hesitating for a while, he spoke, "Prime Minister Qin, the women's seats are over there."
Pointing to the women's seats separated by a screen not far away, Yun Zimu extended his hand to Li Shengyi again.
"Shengyi, Brother Zimu, would you mind taking you to the women's table? We won't be going to the kitchen."
"No, I want daddy."
As soon as Yun Zimu finished speaking, he saw Li Shengyi snuggling into Qin Songmo's arms again.
There is an old saying that men and women should not touch each other. Even though Li Shengyi is not very old, Qin Songmo is already in his twenties, and Qin Songmo is about to reach thirty.
They should understand what this old saying means and know how to avoid suspicion with their youngest daughter, right?
Seeing that Li Shengyi was unwilling to leave with him, Yun Zimu immediately set his sights on Qin Songmo.
Qin Songmo felt a gaze falling on him. He raised his head with a faint look, "Shengyi is shy, just let her stay here."
"Thank you for your help, Master Yun."
Yun Zimu was turned away and felt angry, but he didn't dare show it on his face.
He had just suffered a loss at the hands of Qin Songmo some time ago.
Coupled with Yun Rusi's affairs during this period, the entire Bachelor's Mansion was filled with a depressed atmosphere.
He was so afraid of offending his father that he didn't even dare to breathe at this critical moment.
He couldn't trick Li Shengyi into going to the kitchen and taking him away. A hint of gloom flashed across Yun Zimu's lowered brows.
When he raised his head again, the smile in his eyes was back.
"In that case, I will withdraw first."
Only after Yun Zimu left did Li Shengyi breathe a sigh of relief and raised his head from Qin Songmo's arms.
"Not pretending anymore?"
Qin Songmo called Qingfeng to bring a chair and placed new dishes in front of her.
The Prime Minister personally did such a thing for his little daughter, which made many ministers who were secretly looking at him at the banquet drop their jaws in shock.
Li Shengyi climbed down from his arms and ran to her own chair to sit down. She raised her little head and made a panic expression on her face.
"Dad, you saw it, right? Just now at the door, Yun Zimu and Lord Yun looked at me with eyes that seemed to want to eat me up."
Meng Jiuan sat next to her and served her food himself with a serving chopstick.
Hearing her complaints, a smile appeared on the corner of his lips, "You have done so many good things, who else should I eat if not you?"
Li Shengyi immediately turned around and looked at him, "What did I do? I just brought together a couple who love each other."
"If Sister Liu hadn't come to me, I wouldn't have come forward to explain."
"Now, I came forward to explain, but nothing good happened to me. Maybe when the truth comes out, they will just kill me."
When he said this, Li Shengyi's little face clearly showed a serious expression, "Daddy, you must protect me."
"These people are ruthless and ruthless. I'm scared."
Meng Jiuan was about to laugh at her for being so afraid yet still daring to do those things.
Then I heard a high-pitched voice coming from the door.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived—"
