Su Xuan hesitated for half a second.
Then, he decisively took a step to the side.
“Miss! I’m here to save you!”
In the hall, a burly man who had long noticed Princess Hui An rushed over.
It would have been fine if Su Xuan hadn’t dodged, but when he did, he bumped into the burly man.
“Aiyo, why are you blocking my way?
The burly man could not stop. Su Xuan staggered two steps forward from the impact and was hit by Princess Hui An.
It perfectly explained what it meant to accept what was meant for one.
Princess Hui An thought that she was dead for sure, but it didn’t seem to hurt that much.
Su Xuan lay on the ground helplessly. This was the first time in his life that he had become a human cushion.
Su Xiaoxiao rested her chin on the windowsill with one hand and looked at him calmly. Her gloating eyes seemed to be saying, “Who told you to dodge? Is this good? If you didn’t dodge, you might not have fallen.”
The burly man, who could not save the damsel in distress, felt extremely suffocated. He wanted to see which pretty boy had hindered his good deed. When his gaze landed on Su Xuan’s impeccable and noble handsome face, he immediately stopped talking.
This scholar was good-looking.
He couldn’t compare to him.
As the guests gathered to watch, the boss of the teahouse knew that their identities were precious and hurriedly instructed the waiter to stop the guests.
Shen Chuan was a little dumbfounded. What had happened? He had only taken a few steps and did not look back. Why did the two of them fall together in public?
What should he do?
Su Xuan sighed helplessly. “Aren’t you getting up?”
“Oh.” Princess Hui An got up.
Soon, she squatted down at him again.
He thought she was going to help him up. In the blink of an eye, he saw her pick up a small box on the ground. After opening it, she heaved a sigh of relief.
“Fortunately, it’s not ruined.”
Su Xiaoxiao, Princess Jingning, and the others walked down.
Princess Jingning looked at her idiotic sister and asked in anticipation better from someone, “Are you injured?”
Princess Hui An shook her head.
Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Does it hurt anywhere?”
“I don’t think so.” “Your head doesn’t hurt either?”
“Yes… it doesn’t hurt.”
“Then, do you feel dizzy, nauseous, and want to retch?”
Su Xuan muttered “That can’t be…
Su Xiaoxiao was confirming if Princess Hui An had a concussion. It seemed that the quality of Su Xuan’s flesh cushion was not bad.
This matter did not have much impact on Princess Hui An’s reputation. After all, she was a royal princess. If a lady had physical contact with a man, she would not be able to get married. This did not apply to her. No one dared to cast this grievance on the emperor’s daughter.
Princess Hui An did not take it to heart.
She felt bad for smashing into her sidekick’s brother.
“Is your cousin alright?” she whispered to Su Xiaoxiao. Su Xiaoxiao glanced at Su Xuan. “Very good.”
Su Xuan sighed softly.
Princess Hui An was a little frightened. Princess Jingning bade farewell to Su Xiaoxiao and Su Xuan and brought Hui An back to the palace.
Su Xiaoxiao went to the Directorate with Su Xuan and Shen Chuan. She didn’t send them back to class. School had already ended at this time.
Wei Ting was still in the palace and had someone send a message to the Marquis of Zhenbei. He wouldn’t be able to come over tonight. There was no need to wait for him for dinner. He would accompany Su Xiaoxiao to return another day.
The Su family appreciated the word “return”.
Su Xiaoxiao went to Pear Blossom Lane to pick up Dahu, Erhu, and Xiaohu.
Ling Yun really couldn’t stand the dispirited state of his three little evil disciples anymore. He made up his mind and took out his trump card—the Myriad Flower Drum.
This drum was comparable to a war drum. It was big, loud, and majestic. Its sound effect was very shocking.
In the past, he did not dare to let his little evil disciples touch it because he was afraid that he would be beaten away too.
However, now that the three of them seemed to have lost their souls, he could not sit back and do nothing as their master.
In the morning, Deng An came in first. He was holding three boxes of snacks.
“Young Master, here.”
“Where did you get the snacks?” Ling Yun asked.
Deng An smiled and said, ‘Madam Wei is back. She made these herself and asked Dahu and the others to bring them to Young Master!”
“Oh… wait, who did you say is back?” “Madam Wei!”
Ling Yun’s eyebrows twitched as he stood up!
“Young Master, what’s wrong?” “Put the drum away!”
Too late.
The three little ones had already kicked off their shoes and dashed in. They were like three small cannons that knocked Ling Yun down and covered his face with saliva. “Master!”
“Master!”
“Master!”
“Wow! What a big drum! Xiaohu wants to play the drum!” “Erhu wants it too! Erhu wants it too!”
Even the most obedient Dahu could not hold it down.
When Su Xiaoxiao came to pick up the three little ones, she saw Ling Yun sitting cross-legged under the corridor with an ashen face. She walked forward and checked his breathing.
“Oh, you’re still breathing. I almost thought you were dead.”
At this moment, Ling Yun, who really wanted to become a monk, was speechless.
At night, Su Cheng returned from the Imperial City.
After not seeing him for a long time, he had the aura of a Protector Duke. Dressed in an official robe, he looked even more handsome, valiant, and extraordinary. “Dad.”
“Daughter!”
Su Cheng strode into the house and came to Su Xiaoxiao. He held her shoulder and sized her up.
She had lost weight again, making his heart ache.
Was it easy for him to raise 200 catties? He had lost half of his daughter!
“Eh? Where’s my son-in-law?”
He looked around but did not see Wei Ting.
As long as he did not work, he was a good son-in-law.
Su Xiaoxiao said, “He’s in the palace and can’t come over tonight. He’ll come back another day to see Dad.”
Su Cheng pondered for a moment and nodded. “He just returned from the border. His Majesty must have a lot to ask him.”
Su Xiaoxiao smiled. Her father had also matured and looked at the problem from a different perspective.
“Grandpa, Grandpa, Grandpa!”
The three little fellows ran over and hugged his legs, rubbing their little heads against him.
Su Cheng looked at the little guys who had recovered their energy and was both angry and amused. “Your mother is back. Are you happy?
“Happy,” Dahu said.
“Erhu is also happy,” Erhu said.
“Xiaohu is the happiest!” Xiaohu puffed out his chest.
Su Cheng picked up the nearest Dahu. “This is Grandpa’s good grandson!”
“Erhu wants to be hugged too!”
“Grandpa! Grandpa! Carry Xiaohu! Carry Xiaohu!” The two of them stretched out their small arms for a hug.
“Uncle will come and carry you!” Su Li carried Xiaohu away.
Xiaohu refused and twisted his butt in his arms. “I want Grandpa to carry me!”
“No, I want to hug you!”
Soon, Su Qi and Su Yu came over. The two of them went to snatch Erhu.
Erhu shouted, “Aiya…”
Wuhu stood on the branch and flapped its small wings. “Run! Run! Run!”
It had been a long time since the Duke Mansion was so lively. The family ate dinner happily.
Su Xiaoxiao vaguely felt that she had forgotten to say something important.
The forgotten Wei Xiaobao was speechless.
When Wei Ting returned to the residence from the palace, Su Xiaoxiao had already returned with the children. The three little ones played for the entire day and exhausted all their energy before falling asleep.
“Why aren’t you asleep yet?”
Wei Ting asked Su Xiaoxiao.
Su Xiaoxiao said, “I’m hungry. I’ll sleep after eating.”
Having to eat for two made her hungry quickly..
