“…You…what did you say?”
Xiao Lingyu couldn't believe what he said.
Su Xingyi glanced at Xiao Xier who was sleeping soundly on the bed and whispered, "Don't make a sound."
After saying that, Su Xingyi quickly picked up Xiao Lingyu and placed him on the beauty couch under the window.
"Close your eyes and pretend to be asleep. I am the prince who will kiss you awake."
Xiao Lingyu's face turned red instantly and he quickly covered his burning face with his hands.
Not only did he rush back in the middle of the night, but he also had to eavesdrop on her telling bedtime stories.
Not only that, but also learn from the protagonist in the story!
Su Xingyi reached out and pulled Xiao Lingyu's hands away. Looking at her gradually cooling face, he leaned over and whispered softly, "Xiaoyu, close your eyes. It's time to sleep."
Xiao Lingyu looked at his Adam's apple moving up and down and slowly closed his eyes.
After waiting for a while, the kiss still didn't fall...
Xiao Lingyu was already feeling a little sleepy, and sleepiness quickly took over him. At the moment when he was about to fall asleep, Su Xingyi kissed him.
The cool touch made Xiao Lingyu half sober.
At first it was a light kiss, but when Su Xing saw that Xiao Lingyu didn't wake up as he expected, he intensified the kiss.
Xiao Lingyu was no longer sleepy. He opened his eyes, looked at the man who was kissing him passionately, and responded to him enthusiastically.
Perhaps it was because they had been apart for a few days, Xiao Lingyu could clearly feel his deep longing and love for her.
After an unknown amount of time, little Xi'er on the bed murmured, "Mother."
The two ended the kiss. Su Xingyi seemed to be extremely tired. He lay on the crook of Xiao Lingyu's neck and did not get up for a long time.
After a long while, Su Xingyi's voice rang in his ears, "Xiao Yu, everything you asked me to do has been arranged. I just feel a little regretful about one thing."
"What is it?"
"Xiao Xi'er's sweat doesn't seem to improve the taste of rare ingredients. The chili peppers are so spicy that they make me cry."
Xiao Lingyu smiled, "You're not going to pick it and put it in your mouth directly, are you?"
Su Xingyi stood up and said, "If you don't eat it boldly like this, you won't be able to tell whether the taste has improved. I asked An Ge'er to eat the chili peppers the way I did, and he didn't fall for it. He's become smarter."
Xiao Lingyu covered his stomach and laughed silently.
It took him a long time to calm down. "Go back to sleep. The children will be very happy to see you tomorrow."
The next day at dawn, Su Xingyi and Su Ningan went into the kitchen.
Half an incense stick later, Su Ningjie and Su Ningwen washed, dressed and went for a morning run around the lake as usual.
Wei Ying and a few servants followed closely behind to protect him.
"Brother, after running for a few days, I'm no longer out of breath."
Su Ningjie slowed down and jogged side by side with Su Ningwen: "It shows that my body has been strengthened and I can catch up with my big brother."
"Brother has never run this early in the morning. He will be panting like we did at the beginning, and his chest will be hot and tight."
Su Ningjie said, "There's a bamboo forest at the Hot Spring Villa. When we get there today, let's have our eldest brother run around the forest and see if he can do it without blushing or getting nervous."
"I guess Big Brother can't outrun us."
"That's it! It's a piece of cake for me!"
Su Ning'an's voice suddenly sounded from behind.
"ah!"
The two brothers screamed in terror!
"Brother, you...when did you show up?"
"Right...you...don't you have to be back before noon?"
Su Ning'an turned around while running and ran backwards calmly. "My father and I rushed back by boat overnight. Are you happy? Are you surprised? Are you surprised?"
Su Ningjie and Su Ningwen saw Su Ning'an running backwards, and they couldn't catch up with him!
He was so shocked that he couldn't utter a word for a long time.
Big brother is so awesome!
Seeing that the two were dumbfounded, Su Ning'an turned around and slowed down, waiting for them to catch up, and then jogged side by side with them.
"Okay, stop making such a fuss. I'll run with you guys from now on and exercise together."
Su Ningjie turned his head to look at Su Ningan, "Brother, did you practice painting when you went back?"
"Of course, I not only paint, but I also try to carve and color print. I paint every day, and if I don't work for three days and rest for two days, my painting skills will become rusty."
Su Ningjie was delighted, "So your painting skills have improved in the past few days?"
"This... I can't tell. It should be an improvement."
Su Ningjie patted Su Ningan on the shoulder and said, "Then let's go to Shili Langyao today. Pick up your brush and paint. Let us see your painting skills."
"Is there anything worth painting in Shili Langyao?"
Su Ningjie said, "It's beautiful there. There are rows of tall trees on both sides of the road, which are ten miles long. The branches are full of red leaves, and it looks like a sea of fiery red at a glance."
Su Ning'an thought about the scene in his mind and thought that his mother must look very beautiful there.
"Then I'll paint Shili Langyao, and include mother in it. No, I'll include all of you in it. This painting will be called—A Pleasure to the Eyes."
"Brother, can you draw a separate picture for my second sister, and also draw the three of us sisters in one picture?"
"No problem! I need to paint more to improve my painting skills. We should go back to eat..."
"Daddy!" When Xiao Xier saw Su Xingyi setting the table in the dining hall, she happily rushed over.
"When did you get back? Didn't you say you'd be back before lunch?"
Su Xingyi picked up Xiao Xier and placed her on the round stool in front of the table. "Daddy missed you, so he rushed back by boat overnight to make you crystal shrimp dumplings. Would you like to eat a few more shrimp dumplings today to show your respect to Daddy?"
Xiao Xier nodded enthusiastically, "Yes! I'd like to have a few more shrimp dumplings with Mommy. We haven't had Daddy's cooking in a few days. Mommy missed you last night and said she wanted to pick you up at the dock, right, Mommy?"
Xiao Lingyu smiled and sat down next to Xiao Xier. "Yes, this is made by your father. You must eat more."
"Daddy, Mommy, we're back."
"Hand wash your hands quickly and sit down to eat."
The family of six was happily having breakfast. In the carriage opposite the gate of the Lu Mansion, Meng Yunqian was being fed by Meng Zilu while gazing at the gate of the Lu Mansion.
He didn't even blink, for fear of missing the chance to meet Su Ningjie.
"Dad, when will they come out?"
Meng Zilu said helplessly, "It's still early. The earliest time is 9 o'clock. Why don't we go to Lu Mansion and wait after we finish eating?"
Meng Yunqian shook his head. "Let's wait here. The brother and sister are going there together today. Do you think we can see the true appearance of the third son of the Su family today?"
Meng Zilu became interested after hearing this. "I can't see him today, but I'll have a chance to see him at the hot spring villa. He always has to wash his face and go to bed, so he can't wear a mask all the time."
Meng Yunqian frowned and thought for a moment, "Then I want to find a way to make him take off the mask on his own initiative."
"No, don't do that. You have to respect him. If he finds out that we're trying so hard to see his true face, you two can no longer be brothers."
