Over there, Di Jingling snorted coldly and strode towards the two of them.
His gaze swept over Di Youming's medicine bowl, which was now completely empty.
Clearly, Xiao Tang has a knack for handling children.
He waved his hand, signaling Xiao Tang to leave.
Di Youming's little claws quickly reached out and grabbed Xiao Tang's sleeve.
"Uncle, don't be so stingy! Let Auntie play with me for a while!"
He finally revealed his childlike, adorable, and innocent side.
He even acted cute.
What's most outrageous is that the voice is quite childlike.
But it's a rare sight.
Di Jingling glanced at Xiao Tang.
Xiao Tang raised the corners of her lips, her eyes crinkling with laughter.
I have absolutely no objection to this child.
It seems she likes children, but... she doesn't want to have a baby with him.
The man pursed his lips, asked no more questions, and then... left?
The two of them, one big and one small, watched his unhappy back. Xiao Tang suddenly felt that the man was sometimes quite childish.
Indeed, men are boys until they die.
[A grown man like him, still jealous of his own nephew, how embarrassing.]
[No... why would I use such an absurd word as jealousy? That's absolutely impossible.]
His sleeve tightened.
"Aunt, please carry me inside for a moment."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Tang bent down, just about to reach out and pick him up...
A cool breeze suddenly swept across my cheek.
It even stung my cheek.
Her outstretched hand grasped nothing; instead, Di Jingling took the child away.
Xiao Tang looked at the two of them and blinked.
After entering the room.
Di Jingling handed him a wooden carving, saying, "This is what I promised you. I keep my word, so I'm giving it to you."
After all, he was only five years old. He was so happy to receive this wood carving that he was almost moved to tears.
"A gift for me?"
He looked at Di Jingling with surprise and delight.
The man gave a soft "hmm" and strode away.
It seems that he really did return simply because he forgot to give him the wood carving.
During that time, he didn't even glance at Xiao Tang.
Xiao Tang pursed her lips.
[What's with the arrogance! Humph!]
"That's just how my uncle is. He's soft-hearted but stubborn. If he ever upsets you, just think about what he said in reverse."
Xiao Tang tugged at the corner of her lips.
Goodness.
You're only five years old, yet you know way too much.
What exactly happened?!
Children who should be happy have to endure so much and become so mature. Is this right?
Xiao Tang had rather complicated feelings towards this child.
While feeling sorry for him, they also thought about the lingering vengeful spirits in Qingxin Courtyard and felt that the child had gone too far.
She pursed her lips. "Little Youyou, there's something I'd like to ask you."
She had actually considered other names and titles in her mind.
Although she wasn't interested in the side stories, she flipped through them casually later and still remembered the male and female protagonists' daughter, who always called him "Little Youyou."
She calls him that too, so there shouldn't be anything wrong with that, right?
The child was having a great time playing with the wood carving.
This wooden carving is of an eagle, but since it was carved by Di Jingling, it is quite... fierce.
The children, however, were particularly fond of it, and after acquiring the wood carving, they paid no attention to Xiao Tang at all.
He said he wanted to play with Xiao Tang, but he didn't actually look at her at all.
"Why did you... take the lives of your previous wives?"
Can you believe it? A five-year-old child? Is issuing such a terrifying order.
The little boy who was playing with the wood carving looked up at Xiao Tang.
His clear eyes revealed no trace of evil or sin.
If Xiao Tang hadn't known he was a little devil, she might have actually been fooled by him.
Xiao Tang stared at his pitiful eyes and frowned. "What, do you think I wronged you?"
"No, do you also think I'm naughty?"
She was speechless for a moment.
What can she explain to a five-year-old?
"You have no idea, these women, one by one, are trying to take advantage of my royal uncle while he is unconscious."
"Hmph, I'll count for you."
"The first one was planted by that wicked man named Di Yanhen, who wanted to take the opportunity to kill my royal uncle."
"The second one, he drugged my still unconscious uncle, trying to force himself on him. Wasn't that going too far?!"
"And there's a third, a fourth..."
The child started counting on his fingers.
"The fifth one..."
He paused suddenly, a hint of a smile flashing in his eyes.
"Oh, it's you."
"If it were Xiao Rourou, I would kill her too. I don't like her!"
Xiao Tang was both amused and exasperated.
She suddenly felt that this child was simply a magical being.
God-like logic.
After listening to his analysis, it actually makes a lot of sense.
The night Xiao Tang returned to Qingxin Courtyard, she exchanged some items with the system.
[Dog-like...cough cough, good system, I need to do something tonight, I want to exchange for two treasures.]
[Ding~ What would you like to redeem, host? Please tell me.]
Xiao Tang's points are increasing.
Once a certain number of points have been accumulated, the system will no longer be able to assign tasks to this host to control her.
At this moment, upon hearing that the system wanted to exchange for items, even its cold, mechanical voice carried a hint of amusement.
Xiao Tang understood what was going on, but she was too lazy to expose it, she just gritted her teeth.
"Tonight, I'm going to take my revenge!"
She raised the back of her hand, looking at the lingering teeth marks, and the anger she had barely suppressed resurfaced.
[My temper is raging, I'm about to lose control!]
I want a Strength Pill in exchange, and while I'm at it, give me a hideously ugly, nauseatingly ugly human skin mask!
Ideally, it should be something that would make you vomit bile just by looking at it.
Xiao Tang clenched her fist.
Now that she knows what the biggest minefield of the villain is, there's no way she'll lose her life by pretending to be ugly and biting him.
Anyway, she still has a great use.
System: [Host, the Strengthening Pill you wish to exchange requires 100 points, and this human skin mask also requires 100 points, for a total of 200 points.]
Xiao Tang closed her eyes and entered!
After taking the Strengthening Pill, you will experience a temporary muscle-building effect, turning you into a super strongman.
Although it could only last for half an hour, it was enough for her to use her body as a female warrior to kill that villain!
...
Di Jingling put down the last memorial.
He raised his hand and pinched the space between his eyebrows.
A feeling of exhaustion washed over me.
Thinking of what Xiao Tang had said during the day... that the emperor's days were numbered, his heart sank a little.
Just then, a loud crash came from the window.
Bang!
[Hahaha, you big villain, I'm here!]
Tonight, I'm going to show you why flowers are so purple!!
Hearing this jumbled mess of thoughts, Di Jingling knew that his dramatic princess had arrived.
Just as he was about to speak, a very large shadow loomed over him in the candlelight.
He frowned.
Looking to the side, I saw bulging veins on his forehead.
