Even a stranger like Xiao Er, when he saw the three of them sitting together, would recognize them as a family without hesitation. Zhe Ye secretly glanced at Fu Huaichu, and gradually believed that they did look alike.
Fu Huaichu ordered two dishes, then handed the menu to Zheye Zhezhi, "Order whatever you want."
Zheye Zhezhi didn't hesitate and ordered two dishes each. The waiter wrote down their orders and walked out with the menus.
Until this time, the father and his two sons were the only ones left in the private room.
Zhezhi thought of the main purpose of today's gathering, and she was the first to speak, "Brother, let's bring Daddy and Mom together. Do you have any good ideas that can help them get together naturally?"
"Zhizhi, we agreed that we must make mother live a happy life," Zhe Ye's eyes were calm. He looked at Fu Huaichu. He was talking to his sister, but actually he was talking to Fu Huaichu.
"Brother, Daddy is a good man," Zhezhi shook Zheye's arm and acted coquettishly towards him, "Why don't we give him a hand?"
Zhe Ye looked at Fu Huaichu. His attitude towards this father was somewhat complicated. On the one hand, as a boy, he was born to admire male elders who were stronger and older than himself. Fu Huaichu was the crown prince of the entire dynasty, the future emperor. He was proficient in both civil and military strategies since he was a child. He was tall, had long legs and outstanding looks. He was also very good at governing the country. When Zhe Ye listened to the teacher's lectures, he could hear the teacher praising the Crown Prince from time to time.
But on the other hand, Su Zhiruan has been running around all these years, and she has been raising their two children alone. There have been constant rumors around them. Although he and his sister are very well protected by their mother, they are very smart, and he can understand all the bad things said behind their backs. The more they hear these, the more they understand how difficult it is for Su Zhiruan. They try their best not to cause trouble for her, study hard, and become a well-known child prodigy brother and sister.
"Three years ago, I left your mother. At that time, I thought that as long as I turned around and came back, she would come back to me. But I didn't expect that this separation would last so long." Fu Huaichu looked out the window. There was a heavy snowfall last night, and the entire capital was dyed white. Even the number of pedestrians on the road decreased a lot. A few pedestrians walked by, breathing out white mist from their mouths and noses. Standing on a high place, such a scene was particularly conspicuous, but people with different purposes would not be childish. He closed the window and returned to his seat. "You brothers and sisters have lived with mother since childhood. If I knew about your existence back then, perhaps we should have been a family by now. As for now, as a father, I am late."
"But it's not too late now," Zhezhi replied. She looked at her brother and father. They looked exactly the same, and even she admired them silently in her heart.
"Father," Zhe Ye put his sister's hand back and looked at Fu Huaichu calmly, "Zhizhi and I agree with you, but if you want to pursue mother, it depends on your sincerity. If mother is willing, we brothers and sisters will naturally help so that the family can be reunited as soon as possible."
"Okay," Fu Huaichu raised his eyes and held up the teacup beside him. He had a noble temperament and sat in an ordinary private room of the restaurant. His aura was lazy but serious. An ordinary private room background made him look like a palace banquet. He raised his teacup and looked at Zhezhi and Zheye, "It's enough to have your and Zhizhi's support. I will try my best to get your mother's approval. If your mother is still willing to be with me, then in the future, even if I risk my life, I will protect you all my life. But if she doesn't want to, then I won't continue to pester her from now on."
He spoke straightforwardly. Zhe Ye glanced at him secretly, then pretended to be calm and looked away.
In fact, he also hoped in his heart that Fu Huaichu could be his father, and that their family could be truly together, so that all those who had said sarcastic things and looked down on him and his sister could be slapped in the face, and outsiders could know that he and his sister were the eldest son and daughter of the Crown Prince of the dynasty, and not the "bastards" they slandered and insulted.
Zhezhi watched the fun from the side, looking at this and that. She touched her chin and always felt that her brother and father were really similar.
After getting the support of these two most important relatives, Fu Huaichu felt more confident. Su Zhiruan cared about these two children very much. In addition, they had been married in Sujia Village for a month. He knew a lot about her daily life and habits. It was not difficult for him to integrate into her life little by little.
The only person he had to pay attention to was the Third Prince. When Fu Huaichu thought of what Fu Huaizhong had told him yesterday, that he fell in love with Su Zhiruan at first sight, he felt a sense of danger lingering around him.
In order to eliminate the hidden dangers, he decided to strike preemptively.
Afterwards, Fu Huaichu and the two children ate while chatting. After the meal, he sent the siblings Zhezhi and Zheye back home.

Su Zhiruan has been very busy these days.
She has too many stores in the capital, and the year is coming to an end. She needs to summarize all the business dealings in the capital and other provinces, and there are also many orders at the end of the year. So she is busy all day long, and finding time to have a good sleep is a luxury.
She spent some time sending out her free confidants to continue trading, and also worked with the general managers of several stores and dozens of accountants to settle accounts and organize a room full of account books.
After being busy for about half a month, she was finally able to take a few days off and start preparing for the New Year.
At this time, Su Zhiruan was sitting drowsily on a recliner in the mansion. Not far away was Zhezhi who was reading, and Zheye who was squatting beside the pavilion doing horse stance. The three of them did not disturb each other and were in the same place, but it seemed very quiet.
Su Zhiruan half raised his eyelids and asked, "Zhezhizheye, do you want any New Year gifts this year, or do you want to eat anything delicious?"
"Mom, will you celebrate the New Year with us this year?" Zhezhi put the book away, walked over and rubbed Su Zhiruan's shoulder with expectant eyes.
It's no wonder she said that. During the Chinese New Year last year, the two children were so happy to decorate the house with festive decorations and hang big red lanterns high. However, something unexpected happened in her shop and she didn't come back until late at night. Whenever Zhezhi talked about this, she would feel aggrieved for a long time.
Su Zhiruan quickly hugged Zhezhi and said, "Not this year. Mother will always be here and will not leave. Let's celebrate the New Year happily together!"
"Okay!" Zhezhi jumped up happily.
Su Zhiruan was about to say something else.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Suddenly, she heard footsteps coming from outside. It sounded like there was more than one person, more like a group of people.
Then, the security guard rushed in, sweating profusely, "Miss! It's not good——"
"What's wrong?" Su Zhiruan saw that he was very anxious, and couldn't help but frowned deeply, "Tell me slowly, who is here?"
"Your Highness, please come over!" The guard had never seen such an important figure before, and for a moment he stuttered and couldn't even speak clearly.
After Zheye and Zhezhi heard this, they looked at each other and understood.
"Prince? Please ask me to come over?" Su Zhiruan didn't know what Fu Huaichu was going to do next, so she stood up and decided to go out and see what was going on outside.
"I'll go out and take a look!" (End of this chapter)
