Chapter 543 This guard is, after all, one of the eldest brother's men (Second Update)
The main villain did indeed look rather serious.
Xiao Tang thought that his joking tone would ease the tension, but in the end, he found that Xiao Tang seemed to be more serious than before.
Emma, what did I say wrong?
Oh dear, I'm so afraid the main villain is going to start crying at any moment.
[That pitiful little face, who could resist?]
The man remained silent, staring at her for a long time. Apart from holding her even tighter in his arms, all his other actions seemed futile.
...
The next room.
The three little ones sat facing each other, each with a more serious expression than the last.
Da Bao is the most serious.
Xiao Bao was the calmest.
Rather than saying she was the most composed, it would be more accurate to say she took out two osmanthus candies from her small purse and slowly licked them, completely oblivious to what was happening around her.
Erbao asked, "Can we go back to the Dasheng Palace with Daddy and Mommy now?"
Da Bao's expression was also serious.
Xiao Bao let out a sound of surprise, raised his head, and paused in his licking of the candy.
She remembered that she was a princess of the Great Sheng Kingdom, which would surely make her the center of attention.
She asked in a childish voice, "Are my eldest and second eldest brothers going to fight for the position of crown prince?"
Both dolls were startled at the same time.
They were surprised and even a little horrified by what their sister said.
The younger sister, who uttered such a shocking statement, didn't seem to care at all, and even slowed down her candy-licking movements.
She doesn't think there's anything wrong with her problem at all?
Moreover, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that she had asked the right question.
Da Bao and Er Bao looked at each other.
"Little sister, is this really the problem you came up with?" Erbao asked hesitantly.
"Yes, that's what Mother said before. If you two want to go back, one of you will become the crown prince sooner or later."
Xiao Bao spoke while shaking his head, remaining remarkably calm.
This shocked both of his older brothers.
They never imagined that Xiao Bao would say those words; it was terrifying.
They themselves hadn't even considered the matter of who would be the crown prince.
What surprised me most was that the little guy clicked his tongue and said, "Why do you all look so shocked? I'm serious! And, Mommy said she won't have any more babies in the future."
If they don't have a baby, then the crown prince will naturally be chosen from among his two older brothers.
Is that strange?
Erbao's lips twitched. "What you said is really... really right."
When did my little sister become so sensible? She's not like a little sister at all!
Da Bao glanced sideways at Er Bao.
These things don't seem to matter, do they?
"So you've been here all along!"
Xiao Yiran came over and, since the house was open, immediately saw the three little ones sitting in a row.
I don't know what they were discussing, but I could see a solemn expression on the faces of the three five-year-old children.
This also left Xiao Yiran incredulous.
"Third Uncle, what do you want with us?" The three little ones immediately turned their heads upon hearing the noise.
Xiao Bao asked Xiao Yiran in a childish voice.
Every time Xiao Yiran heard the child's soft, sweet voice, he felt as if he were floating on air.
This child is so sweet.
Especially the way he calls out to his third uncle—his voice is so soft and sweet, it's absolutely delightful.
"Shh, I've set up two little swings for you in the lotus garden up ahead. Want to go play on them?"
Unexpectedly, all he did was ask them to go play on the swings.
Da Bao scoffed, "Childish! This is something only kids play with."
Xiao Yiran: "..."
The smile was frozen on her face.
How come the sixth sister's baby is so precocious?
Erbao dashed out like a little cannonball, shouting, "I want to play, little sister, let's go together!"
Xiao Bao had already clapped her hands, and when she saw her second brother rush out, she grabbed her skirt with her chubby little hands and hurriedly chased after him.
"Wait for me, Second Brother!"
Xiao Yiran watched as the two children rushed out and silently swallowed her conclusion.
Compared to the eldest child, the second and youngest children are more like normal five-year-olds.
He chased after them, calling out, "Don't run so fast, be careful not to fall."
Da Bao, who had just been acting all high and mighty, pouted after everyone had run away, realizing that she might have made a mistake.
He slowly chased after them.
In the lotus garden, Erbao and Xiaobao were already playing.
Da Bao stood behind their swing, watching Xiao Yiran take turns pushing them on the swing, his big, dark eyes still revealing a look of longing and envy.
He really wants to play.
Although I pretended to be mature before...
Xiao Yiran, being an adult, turned around and asked, "Want to play together?"
Da Bao couldn't hold back his pride any longer and finally nodded.
When Xiao Tang and Di Jingling came out, she looked around for Zaizai, but to her surprise, she found the swing that had been set up in the garden, as well as the three little ones playing happily with Xiao Yiran.
Xiao Tang turned her head and glanced at Di Jingling.
The man's face was expressionless.
But in reality, his gaze toward Xiao Yiran held a dangerous glint.
It's as if it's saying: "My son, why are you playing with them?"
Xiao Yiran, who was in a good mood, suddenly felt a chill down her back and immediately turned around.
Seeing Xiao Tang standing not far away with a guard, especially the guard, whose sinister and terrifying eyes made it impossible to look directly at him.
But I soon realized that I was overthinking it.
How could a mere guard possess such a terrifying aura?
What's most infuriating is that the guard is standing so close to Xiao Tang, the two are so intimate that even he, as the older brother, can hardly stand it.
