Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The two children, who had been so excited as if they had been given chicken blood, instantly turned into frosted cabbages. Trembling, they turned their heads to look behind them and saw their mother’s face blackened. Su Qian had unceremoniously given Xiao Yin a karate chop without hesitation, which made him scream in agony.
Su Qian dressed in bright red, her hands crossed in front of her chest, with a slender waist that could not be grasped. However, she was filled with intense hostility as she coldly looked at the children and Xiao Yan.
“Mother, mother, why are you here…?” Su Ye quickly helped his sister down from Xiao Yan’s shoulder. The two siblings stood side by side, with their heads lowered, their small hands rubbing their clothes uneasily, trembling as they looked at Xia Zishang with fear and trepidation, not daring to speak.
“I hope I’m not disturbing you guys by coming over?” Su Qian had a complex feeling in her heart, as she saw her two children being close to Xiao Yan just now. It was as if a piece of her heart had been hollowed out and it was empty.
“How could it be? Qianqian, I’m very happy that you came.” Xiao Yan tried to get closer to Su Qian as he spoke.
Su Qian looked displeased, dodged Xiao Yan’s hand, and then she gave the two children a look. “The two of you, wait outside.”
Xiao Yan didn’t say anything. Even after being caught red-handed, he still had a smile on his face, as if he wasn’t worried about facing Su Qian’s judgment.
However, Xiao Yan wasn’t worried, but the children were. They hurriedly came to Su Qian’s side and gently shook her arm, saying, “Mother, it’s all our fault. We heard that the prize for today’s Colosseum champion is the Blood Toad Elixir, so we insisted on participating in the competition. It has nothing to do with Ninth Uncle.”
“That’s right, Mother. Ninth Uncle has been good to us. If you want to punish someone, punish me will do. Please spare Ninth Uncle and brother,” Su Qingqing said pitifully.
Upon hearing this, Su Qian, as clever as she was, immediately understood that the children must have wanted to win the Blood Toad Elixir as a gift for her.
Thinking of this, her originally wrinkled heart was miraculously soothed. Looking at the innocent and worried faces of the two children, her expression suddenly relaxed. She bent down and patted the children’s heads. “I just have something to discuss with Ninth Prince. You can rest assured and wait outside. H
When the two children heard this, they uneasily turned their heads to look at Xiao Yan, feeling as if they were betraying him by leaving.
“Don’t worry, your mother can’t bear to do anything to me. You guys leave first, and Uncle will bring you guys to eat delicious food later,” Xiao Yan consoled with a smile.
Su Qian silently watched the two children leave. She crossed her arms and looked at Xiao Yan with a probing gaze. “Ninth Prince, what do you want to do?”
Xiao Yan replied naturally, “Is there anything wrong with me being close to my child?”
Su Qian pursed her lips and suddenly revealed a coquettish smile like a flower. “Ninth Prince, you really know how to joke. What evidence do you have to prove that you’re the father of my children? Just based on your silver tongue, Ninth Prince?”
A look of surprise appeared in Xiao Yan’s deep eyes, and he immediately snorted. “Qianqian, you’re a smart person. You know very well that I’m telling the truth.”
Xiao Yan did not have the habit of randomly claiming to be the father of children. Back then, he only had Su Qian, not to mention that he could feel the blood connection between the two children and him. There was no way he would be wrong.
On the other hand, Su Qian was unflustered as she leisurely played with the strands of hair in front of her chest and chuckled. “Your Highness, after so many years, there are countless people who want to be the father of my two children, and you are not the only one. To be honest with Your Highness, my children have always thought that their father was gone, so if Your Highness suddenly appeared, I’m afraid you’re asking for a snub.”
“Are you saying that you told the children that 1 was dead?” Xiao Yan’s voice revealed a hint of danger. His deep eyes flickered with a hint of depth as if he could see through Su Qian..
