Chapter 229: Spring Thunder
Song family.
As soon as he returned to the Song family, Song Xiao was as excited as a swallow returning to its nest.
He clutched Song Tingchen's sleeve tightly, and the depressed and gloomy mood that had been in his heart seemed to be swept away by the arrival of spring.
"Father, the emperor just sent someone to deliver his order, saying that we should enter the palace tonight."
Song Xiao's eyes sparkled, and the smug look between his brows was almost uncontrollable. He was so excited that he almost jumped up, "Then we, we will be able to reunite with mother soon?"
Looking at Song Xiao's expectant eyes, Song Tingchen touched his head. Song Xiao had lost a lot of weight during this period. The child used to be a round ball, but now he looked a bit thin.
He hummed, his tone gentle, "Yes, soon, our family will be reunited."
Whether Su Tan likes him or not, he will never let her go again.
He made the same mistake three years ago, and he will never make it again.
“That’s great!”
"My mother has been ignoring me and treating me coldly lately. No matter how much I do, in her eyes, it's nothing compared to a little coquettishness from Princess Zhaoyang."
"But now, she can finally focus all her attention on me."
Song Xiao was overjoyed, his brows filled with anticipation. What was the point of Su Tan liking him or hating him even more?
No matter how much she liked Lu Suisui and wanted to be Lu Suisui's mother, that was impossible.
As long as His Majesty is on the side of their Song family, no matter how much my mother dislikes it or how aggrieved she feels, she has to bow to the imperial power.
Thinking of this, Song Xiao was very proud, with a deep joy hidden in his eyes, and even a bit of mockery that he himself was not aware of.
Su Tan worked on it for so long, but in the end, all his efforts were in vain.
As a woman, even if you are good at fortune-telling and can kill all the evil spirits in the world with your sword, so what?
"Father, you are really amazing. The emperor likes you very much, so we have everything."
What’s the point of his mother being so powerful?
After all, she is just a woman.
A mother should do as the books say, take care of her husband and children, instead of trying to please other people's children and being dismissive of her own children.
but……
Song Xiao smiled, hugged Song Tingchen's arm and started to act coquettishly, hiding the contempt for her mother in her eyes very well.
It was as if he was really just a child who needed love, his mother's company, and his mother's affirmation.
"Father, I want to become a great hero like you in the future, so that the emperor will like me too."
As long as you get the emperor's favor, you can have everything you want.
Including his mother who disliked him and hated him to the core.
Song Tingchen nodded, smiled and continued to touch Song Xiao's head.
"Xiaoxiao, Daddy believes in you and is waiting for you to become a great hero. You are a very good child and always do everything well."
Song Xiao smiled.
As a son, what he wanted most since he was a child was his father's praise.
His mother could never warm his heart.
His father is his only reliable ally.
Song Xiao lowered his eyes, revealing a sad and gloomy look at the right moment, and tightly grasped Song Tingchen's sleeve.
"Father, if you and Mother make peace with each other in the future, can you promise me one thing?"
His tone was extremely cautious and his eyes were so fragile, as if he would shatter into pieces like fragile porcelain with a bang if Song Tingchen didn't agree.
Song Tingchen paused, his eyes meeting Song Xiao's. He was in no hurry to agree, but simply asked, "What do you want your father to promise you?"
Song Xiao's tone was cautious, with panic, fear, confusion and helplessness.
He cried, "Dad, you know, I dreamed about my sister before."
"Mother...Mother killed you and me for her sister."
Song Xiao shuddered when he thought of that terrible dream.
How many times, whenever he thought of this dream, he would still feel a chill in his bones with fear.
Even though Liu Qingyin was already dead, there was no longer a vicious woman standing between them.
But Song Xiao was just afraid.
He was afraid that once his sister appeared, everything he had worked so hard for would be taken away in one day.
Song Xiao shivered and just grabbed Song Tingchen's sleeve, tears falling one by one.
"Dad, I know you'll think I'm ignorant and jealous when I say this, but I really don't want a younger sister."
"Father, if you and Mother reconcile, can you promise me that you won't give me a sister?"
"I'm not forbidding you from having other children. You can have a younger brother. I'm just afraid of having a younger sister."
As long as he has a younger sister, no matter whether that sister is Changle or not, he will feel creepy.
Song Tingchen was silent for a long time, then he sighed and reached out to touch Song Xiao's head.
As the saying goes, once bitten by a snake, one will be afraid of ropes for ten years.
This is what Song Xiao is like now.
He didn't blame Song Xiao for thinking this way, it was just that Su Tan's personality was extreme.
"Okay, Daddy promises you."
Song Tingchen thought for a long time and finally nodded.
There is no other reason, maybe because he is a girl, Su Tan always has an extreme preference for girls.
Once Su Tan really has a daughter, she will almost put all her thoughts on her daughter. How can she care about Song Xiao at that time?
Song Tingchen hopes that Song Xiao will return to the Song family because he wants Song Xiao to have a harmonious and beautiful family.
He wanted Su Tan to slowly change Song Xiao's personality and cure the extreme tendencies in the child's heart.
But once Su Tan has a daughter, she will put all her thoughts on her daughter, and Song Xiao can only watch helplessly.
Isn't this a secondary injury to Song Xiao?
People's hearts are always biased.
Song Xiao is Song Tingchen's first child.
Therefore, Song Tingchen always favors Song Xiao a little.
Even if he has more children in the future, for him, the child he loves and values the most is still Song Xiao.
"Xiaoxiao, don't be afraid."
"Dad will protect you well."
Just like protecting my younger self.
There was a sound of spring thunder outside. Song Xiao shuddered a little, but nodded quickly.
"Yeah! I believe in Dad!"
