He shook his head in a daze, saying that he didn't know and couldn't figure it out.
Anyway, his father is the emperor, so whatever he says is what counts.
Zhou Beichen chuckled and rubbed his head. "It doesn't matter if you can't figure it out. We have a lot of time, so let's take it slow."
Zhou Beichen was rarely so gentle and close to him. Seeing that he didn't say anything, he took Zhou Zeyun's hand and walked into the inner room.
"Also, I'm raising your sister. You two are from the same mother. If your sister stays by your side and doesn't leave you even after she gets married, I think having her to help you will make it easier for you to break through obstacles."
"Although the royal family has no blood ties and no family affection, I hope that we can be an exception."
Zhou Beichen said all he wanted to say, holding his two children on his left and right. He did it for no other reason than hoping that when he was old, there would be someone to carry on the empire and his children would have a good place to go.
After entering the room, Zhou Zhaonuan pushed Zhou Beichen to a seat and massaged his shoulders attentively.
"Dad, how come you came here so quietly? You've been elusive outside like a ghost."
Zhou Beichen slammed the table, scaring Nuannuan. He glared at the person and threatened him.
"What are you talking about? What do you mean your father is like a ghost? Zhou Zhaonuan, do you still have any manners? Kneel down before me."
Nuannuan immediately stepped back, but did not kneel down. What a joke. Since she met Zhou Beichen, she had grown up and it was a blessing that she had actually kneeled down to him three times.
Zhou Zhaonuan twisted her body and simply stopped pinching his shoulders. "Daddy, we're outside. I won't kneel. You can't bully me for no reason."
Zhou Zeyun watched the interaction between the father and daughter and couldn't help scratching his head. He suddenly felt that his birth was quite...sudden.
"Who bullied you? You are so unruly. I order you to kneel down."
Zhou Beichen slammed the table again, and his intimidating aura swept the entire hall, but Zhou Zhaonuan was not afraid at all. Not only did the little girl not kneel, but she found a place close to Zhou Beichen, sat down, and started to eat melon seeds.
Anyway, she is grown up now, and her father can't just grab her and beat her like he did when she was a child.
Zhou Beichen: “…”
A gust of cold wind blew in from the door. Seeing Zhou Zhaonuan tighten her clothes and glance at her sideways, Zhou Beichen snorted.
"I think there's a leak or a hole in something."
Zhou Zhaonuan: “…”
The little girl curled her lips in resentment, still sitting there without getting up, "Daddy, who are you being sarcastic to? What do you mean by something is leaking? Mother said that daughters are their fathers' and mothers' little cotton-padded jackets, but she never said that I am your little cotton-padded jacket. Daddy, compared to those daughters, Nuannuan is at best a jerk. I'm lucky I didn't piss you off to death. As for the little cotton-padded jacket, you have so many daughters anyway, you should place it on them, not on me, it's embarrassing."
Zhou Zhaonuan said this without blushing or getting nervous, but Zhou Beichen's face turned red and his neck became thick. Zhou Zhaonuan trembled. She realized that her father looked like that because he was angry with her.
Blinking, Nuannuan continued.
"Daddy, please don't be angry. Brother, please pat Daddy's chest to calm him down. Also, Daddy, I treat you as my father, so I won't kneel to you at every turn. If I follow the rules and kneel to you at every turn, our relationship will become distant, and you will no longer be my father, but the Emperor."
Zhou Beichen's eyes widened in surprise. How could such words be said so bluntly? Since ancient times, who would be so stupid as to say such bluntly? Zhou Beichen said that he didn't understand, and Zhou Zeyun also shook his head, indicating that he didn't understand either.
My sister actually told the secret of her favor so openly.
Zhou Beichen was feeling upset when Nuannuan ran up to him attentively and glanced at her father casually.
He rubbed his hands, his big eyes twinkling, looking very innocent.
"Zhou Beichen, do you want to be Nuannuan's father or daddy? If you want to be Nuannuan's father, I will kowtow to you and perform the most solemn ceremony. I will kowtow eight or ten times."
Having said that, Nuannuan knelt down without waiting for him to react, ready to kowtow.
Zhou Beichen held his forehead helplessly, feeling exhausted. He was so tired. If he had known this would happen, he would not have bothered to come here. Isn't this just making things difficult for himself?
I was obviously thinking about her in the palace, but when I really saw it, I really wanted to kick her out.
Zhou Beichen let out a long breath, and seeing Nuannuan really kowtowed on the ground, he frowned. This girl must be trying to piss him off on purpose. She has been addicted to pissing him off since she was a child.
Unable to bear it any longer, Zhou Beichen rushed over in one step. Because of his strength and the height difference, he picked up the little girl who was kowtowing vigorously. He glanced around the room and found nothing useful that was handy.
Inkstone?
I might accidentally kill my daughter.
whip?
No, no, it's too heavy.
Finally, Zhou Beichen pressed Zhou Zhaonuan down on the table, raised his hand and hit her without saying a word.
"Zhou Zhaonuan, today, I came here happily to take you two home, but you asked for this beating."
After the slap, Nuannuan gritted her teeth and tried her best to crawl out, her little face flushed red with shame.
However, Zhou Beichen held her too tightly, and she couldn't crawl out at all. When she thought of her brother still being here, Zhou Beichen felt his face get even hotter.
Nuannuan's eyelashes trembled slightly, and her little hands drooped down, grabbing the corner of the table tightly. I don't know if Zhou Beichen let her go or what, but with a "whoosh", the little girl came out.
"Daddy, why are you always like this? Nuannuan is already a big kid."
After stamping her feet, Nuannuan walked inside and sat down on the chair with her mouth pouting.
Zhou Beichen found it funny, with a hint of mockery flashing in his eyes, and he walked over.
"Nuannuan, are you angry with father?"
Zhou Zhaonuan still didn't say anything. Zhou Beichen moved a chair and sat very close to Zhou Zhaonuan.
"That's right. I came all the way here, and not only did I not receive a warm hospitality from my son and daughter, but I was also annoyed by my daughter. Now, I haven't had anything to eat along the way, and my stingy daughter and son didn't even bother to prepare something for their father."
"have......"
Zhou Zhaonuan was interrupted by Zhou Zeyun who came up from behind before he could finish his sentence.
"There's food, Daddy, there's food, Nuannuan, come on, let's get it."
Zhou Zeyun pushed his sister hard until the brother and sister disappeared at the end. There was still a hint of amusement in Zhou Beichen's eyes.
Neither of these two annoying little bastards gave him peace of mind.
