Ye Jinghe had put a lot of thought into the garden of Prince Qian's mansion. It was planted with flowers, plants and trees that Ye Jingchen liked. At this time of year, many flowers were in full bloom, and when a gentle breeze blew by, you could see the petals flying everywhere.
When Xie Chang'an brought the two little ones to the garden, a flower petal fell on Ye Jingchen's head. Ye Jinghe was reaching out to pick it up for him. From Xie Chang'an's perspective, it looked like Ye Jinghe was embracing Ye Jingchen.
"What are you doing?" Xie Chang'an's voice rang out before he even thought, and he shouted the question from a distance.
Ye Jinghe originally only wanted to remove the petals that had fallen on his brother's head, but seeing Xie Chang'an's reaction, he changed his mind and picked a full and bright red flower from the flower branch next to them and pinned it to Ye Jingchen's head.
"Brother, you look so handsome with this flower in your hair." After putting the flower in his hair, Ye Jinghe praised him, completely ignoring Xie Chang'an.
"What's with a grown man wearing flowers? It looks awful!" Xie Chang'an walked over and reached out to take the flowers off Ye Jingchen's head.
Ye Jingchen reached out and grasped Xie Chang'an's hand, smiling as he said, "The meaning of wearing flowers in your hair is very auspicious; don't let Jinghe's good intentions go to waste."
Xie Chang'an stared at the flower with a bitter and resentful look.
"Does this mean that the poison has been neutralized and your memory has been restored?" Ye Jinghe looked Xie Chang'an up and down and asked curiously.
"What's it to you?" Xie Chang'an glanced at him coldly.
"Brother Crown Prince, we've come to play with you again today!" The two little ones had short legs and walked slowly. They had been left behind by Xie Chang'an earlier, so they ran over now and each hugged one of Ye Jingchen's legs.
Ye Jingchen released Xie Chang'an's hand, patted the heads of the two little ones, then took one in each hand and led them to see the flowers.
Now, both Ye Jinghe and Xie Chang'an are the ones who have been abandoned.
"It seems my sister-in-law hasn't regained her memory yet," Ye Jinghe said.
If Xie Chang'an regains his memory, there is absolutely no way he would bring these two little burdens with him.
Xie Chang'an ignored him and followed Ye Jingchen.
He still doesn't know how to get along with Ye Jingchen, but there's one thing he's very clear about.
He didn't want to see Ye Jinghe hanging around Ye Jingchen.
The two little brats were just the right size to occupy the space next to Ye Jingchen, separating Ye Jinghe from him.
As it turned out, the two little brats did not disappoint him, occupying Ye Jingchen for the entire day, leaving him only able to watch from the sidelines.
Xie Chang'an couldn't understand how a twenty-something adult could play with two little kids and a teenager. But what was scary was that not only could Ye Jingchen play with the little kids, but Ye Jinghe could also play games with them without any sense of awkwardness.
In the evening, Ye Jingchen sent the two children back to the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, just like yesterday.
Just like yesterday, Ye Jinghe suggested that he would wait for Ye Jingchen to have dinner together, and Ye Jingchen readily agreed.
Seeing how readily Ye Jingchen agreed, Xie Chang'an felt a tightness in his chest again.
He didn't say a word to Ye Jingchen in the carriage.
However, Ye Jingchen didn't talk to him either. The two little brats were currently at the most talkative stage and kept talking to Ye Jingchen.
And so, the carriage arrived at the gate of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion.
Xie Chang'an got off the carriage first, followed by Ye Jingchen. After he carried the two little ones off the carriage, he said goodbye to them.
Xie Chang'an kept staring at Ye Jingchen. Didn't he say yesterday that he wanted to proceed step by step?
Throughout the day, apart from Ye Jingchen shaking his hand when he stopped him from taking the flower Ye Jinghe had given him, they had no physical contact whatsoever.
"Chang'an, why are you staring at me like that? Are you reluctant to part with me?" Ye Jingchen noticed his gaze and teased him with a smile.
Actually, while playing with the kids today, he noticed that Xie Chang'an had been staring at him all day.
"I'm not one of them, how could I possibly miss you!" Xie Chang'an said dismissively.
Before Xie Chang'an could finish speaking, and before Ye Jingchen could say anything, Chang Zhao spoke first.
"Big brother, you're not being honest at all! Our ancestors said we should be honest and good children!"
"What nonsense are you spouting, little girl?" Xie Chang'an raised his fist at Chang Zhao, threateningly.
"I'm not talking nonsense, big brother! Your eyes are practically glued to the Crown Prince! Although I also miss the Crown Prince, I'm not like you!" Chang Zhao shook his head and sighed, looking like a little adult.
If Changzhao weren't his biological sister, Xie Chang'an would have really wanted to silence her. How could such a young girl, only a few years old, act so shrewd!
"You can't blame Changzhao. It's your own fault for speaking so carelessly before. Changzhao just followed suit," Ye Jingchen said, suppressing a laugh.
Xie Chang'an didn't believe it. How could he say such nonsense to a little kid who was only a few years old?
In fact, he did say that. His exact words were: "Your brother is mine. Even if you have eyes for him, he is still mine and has nothing to do with you. Don't always cling to him. Girls should be reserved and have a sense of propriety and distance."
Changzhao is a vengeful brat.
"Brother Chang'an, even if you're reluctant to part with me, I have to go. Brother Jinghe is still waiting for me to have dinner." Ye Jingchen reached out and patted Xie Chang'an's shoulder, saying meaningfully.
Xie Chang'an's face immediately darkened.
They call him "Brother Chenxi" and "Brother Jinghe" so affectionately!
Then what about 'Chang'an Brother'?
Xie Chang'an felt that Ye Jingchen was raising fish, and he was just one of the fish in Ye Jingchen's fishpond.
He turned to leave, but felt his hand being pulled back.
"Brother Chang'an, let's hold hands before we go!" Ye Jingchen took Xie Chang'an's hand and, just like yesterday, interlocked their fingers.
"Dream about me tonight, okay? See you in my dreams!" Ye Jingchen shook Xie Chang'an's hand, his smile carrying a particularly meaningful meaning.
After saying that, he released Xie Chang'an's hand, turned around, and gracefully walked onto the carriage.
Xie Chang'an's face instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot, and he had an urge to drag Ye Jingchen off the carriage and make him explain himself.
Using such frivolous tricks to tease him, what exactly did Ye Jingchen take him for?
"Chang'an, Changzhao, Changze, see you tomorrow!" After getting into the carriage, Ye Jingchen lifted the curtain of the carriage window and waved to the three siblings.
The carriage slowly drove away.
Inside the carriage, recalling Xie Chang'an's expression just now, Ye Jingchen smiled particularly happily.
He can only tease Xie Chang'an like this now that Xie Chang'an has lost his memory. Once Xie Chang'an regains his memory, he won't be able to play like this anymore.
Because of a damaged back.
"Brother, we can't even see the Crown Prince's carriage anymore, aren't we going in?" Changzhao asked, tugging at Xie Chang'an's sleeve.
Xie Chang'an carried one in each hand and walked into the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion with a dark face.
