Those inquisitive little eyes would glance over and over again. The two little radish heads would take turns looking back, then huddle together for a whispered chat before turning back to look again.
Xuandi soon had the illusion that he was being treated like a monkey...
But those two curious little eyes, with their innocent and pure curiosity that only children possess, were so innocent that Xuan Di couldn't even get angry.
Then, Xuandi took a closer look and immediately realized with a dark expression that this was even more like looking at a monkey!
"Hey, hey," finally, after the two kids had turned around to look at him for the umpteenth time, Xuan Di couldn't stand it anymore and spoke up with a sour face, glancing at the two little girls, "You two, if you want to look, look openly, don't act like I'm some rare breed of monkey."
Xuan Di's voice was nonchalant and cool, but when he wasn't angry, he was very approachable and had a very good temper. Although he had just been able to stand up to the Crown Prince, the two little girls turned around and saw their older brother, who had a sour face but no anger, and immediately stopped being afraid and started laughing.
Two little pink girls held hands and ran to Xuandi's side, looking up at him curiously.
"Big brother, are you Nian Nian's brother?" Xiao Changyin tilted her head and asked boldly.
Compared to Wenlian, a concubine-born princess who was not favored by her father in the deep palace, Changyin, the only daughter of the legitimate eldest princess and the county princess who was cherished by the emperor, was bolder and asked out of curiosity.
Xuandi was much more patient with children than that aloof prince, and his temper was much better. He shrugged casually and said, "I am Nian Nian's fifth brother."
"Fifth Brother is this big?" Xiao Wenlian blinked and exclaimed earnestly.
Xuan Di pursed his lips. He felt that there was something strange about what he was saying, but upon closer inspection, there seemed to be nothing wrong with it.
“Yeah, that’s right…” Xuandi replied casually, patting the two little heads. “Alright, let’s go. Look, your Crown Prince brother has already walked quite a distance.”
After Xuandi told them what was going on, the two little girls noticed the people who had walked quite a distance ahead and quickly ran forward on their short legs.
Xuandi slowly lagged behind, and upon seeing this scene, he suddenly frowned.
He said the scene looked so familiar! Wasn't this the scene when he took his little one to the courtyard this afternoon?
What did that guy say to him back then?
"Huo Chengche! What kind of brother are you! How can you mistreat your sister like this!"
Xuandi shouted righteously from behind, indignantly speaking up for the two short-legged girls.
Huo Chengche carried the little baby steadily, his steps never faltering, and he didn't even glance at Xuan Di, coldly remarking, "Feeling sorry for yourself carrying him."
Then, we turned and entered the gate of Shouci Palace.
Xuan Di: ...
As soon as Xuandi entered Shouci Palace with a dark expression, he saw two little dumplings holding hands standing at the door waiting for him, their faces saying: If you speak up for me, we'll wait for you too! From now on, we're best friends! How about that, loyal, right?
Then, Xuandi was greeted by two little dumpling children whispering secrets to each other.
"Big brother, you can't call him 'Crown Prince Brother' randomly, you can't just call him that." The two little dumplings were earnestly and quietly "instructing" Xuandi.
