"One, two, three; four, five, six; seven, eight, nine."
The maid quickly washed the large peach, cut it into eight pieces, arranged them on a fruit platter, and served it to the guests.
Right now, the little girl is counting the peach petals with her chubby little white fingers. Once she's finished counting, she's dividing them and placing them on a small plate.
Finally, the little girl finished sorting them. Her rosy cheeks beamed with joy, and she clapped her little hands, looking smug and triumphant.
"Hey, Third Brother, this is for you, it's Sisi's love~"
The man was very pleased with himself. He pushed one of the small dishes in front of Helian You and looked at him with his eyes crinkling into crescent moons.
Helian's fair, round face froze for a moment, then his dark, bright eyes fell on the three pink, pointed peach petals on the porcelain plate.
Does the little princess... love you?
Without waiting for her taciturn third brother to answer, the little girl wiggled her little bottom and got off the pear wood chair.
She tiptoed, grabbed the remaining two peach petals with her little hands, wobbled her short legs, and whimpered as she walked to the other side.
She handed the two small peach petals to Nanrong Jinghua and Wenren Yu, then patted her own little hands and nodded her fluffy little head in satisfaction.
"Not bad, not bad."
The little girl clearly and distinctly understood the love of a chubby peach.
Nan Rong Jinghua and Wenren Yu both lowered their eyes simultaneously, their gazes falling on the small, pink peach petals on their hands.
"Eat up, this is Sisi's love~"
Seeing that the three of them were just looking at the food without eating, Sisi blinked her eyes and urged them in a soft, sweet voice.
Nan Rong Jinghua lowered her brows, making it impossible to see the emotions in her eyes beneath the long silk robe, only instilling a sense of inexplicable sorrow.
Wenren Yu was sitting next to Nanrong Jinghua, and was most able to sense the changes in Nanrong Jinghua's aura. Seeing Nanrong Jinghua like this now,
On his handsome face, which resembled a painted portrait, his upturned phoenix eyes held a strange glint.
As if she had discovered something interesting, Wenren Yu's phoenix eyes fell on the little girl again, she raised her eyebrows and said,
"The little princess certainly has a lot of love."
As Wenren Yu had expected, upon hearing this, it was clear that Nanrong Jinghua, who was sitting next to her, lowered his aura even further.
"Huh?"
The little girl was about to walk back to her seat when she heard the handsome prime minister's words, and her short legs, which had been taking a step forward, successfully retreated.
Turning her small body to look at Wenren Yu, she saw the handsome Prime Minister picking up a peach petal to eat, and she couldn't help but smile with delight.
You know, if you eat Sisi's chubby peach, you belong to Sisi! So, she waved her chubby little hand.
"Not much, only three portions. Sisi has so much more love to give. Handsome Prime Minister, you don't need to be so polite with Sisi."
You know, she's a cute girl who aspires to have a harem of three thousand handsome men, the kind whose heart could be divided into three thousand pieces. These are only three pieces, nothing special.
"How many husbands does the little princess plan to marry in the future?"
Wenren Yu was sincere; there was no way around it, the Prime Minister's happiness was built on the suffering of others.
When asked this question, Helian Mousi's eyes narrowed mischievously, and he raised his little hand, holding up three chubby fingers.
"Three thousand, hehe, handsome Prime Minister, have you forgotten? When we first met, didn't I tell you that?"
Thinking back to the first time she met this little princess, Wenren Yu choked on a peach petal in her mouth—how could she forget? It felt like just yesterday.
"Ahem, I remember now, three thousand is just right."
