Substitute Bride Phoenix, The Tyrant's Pampered Demon Empress

The stern look on Zuiying’s face turned slightly red from the slap, as he couldn’t contain his anger. “You wench! Haven’t you done enough? If so, then please get the hell away! I don’t want to see you ever again!”

Xu Ziling’s eyes burned with rage, as she slapped Zuiying across the face again without hesitation. “I won’t leave! What are you going to do about it?” He cried coldly.

Zuiying took a deep breath and calmed himself down, glaring at Xu Ziling with deep disgust in his eyes.

Xu Ziling scowled at Zuiying and got even angrier. “I forbid you from glaring at me!” She said with rage.

Zuiying coldly averted his gaze from Xu Ziling. What an infuriatring person. When could he try to escape? Had His Majesty forgotten about him?

Xu Ziling grunted coldly, then turned to leave. That shadow guard always seemed to be able to easily piss her off.

During dinner, Xu Jianchen headed to the kitchen in advance and poured a sedative in Xu Ziling’s rice.

“Second Brother, you’re here early today!” said Xu Jianyao strolled in with his little legs.

Xu Jianchen immediately hid the bottle in his chest pocket, then turned around. “Third Brother, you’re only seven years old. Why do you look so serious?” He said with a chuckle.

The serious look on Xu Jianyao’s little face, then walked to the table and took a seat.

Xu Jianchen walked over to stroke Xu Jianyao’s little head and chuckled.

Xu Jianyao silently twitched the corner of his lips. Why did everyone love to stroke his head? He didn’t like people touching his head at all.

Xu Ziling strutted in with a flat yawn, then walked over to her seat and sat down.

Xu Jianchen hung his head restlessly.

Xu Ziling shot a glance at Xu Jianchen, then rubbed her chin with both hands. “Second Brother, why are you looking down? Did you get a pimple on your face?” She asked.

Xu Jianchen’s head shot up, revealing the instant look of annoyance on his face. His gaze darted to her. “Q-quit… talking nonsense. Where do you see a pimple on my face?”

Xu Ziling couldn’t help but burst out in laughter at the honest and well-behaved look on Second Brother’s face. He was the easiest to make fun of.

Xu Jianfeng whistled as he walked in and sat opposite Xu Ziling. He stroked Xu Jianyao’s head and smiled. “Third Brother, open up your mouth and let me see if the tooth that fell out has grown back yet.”

Xu Jianyao looked away and ignored Xu Jianfeng. “It’s grown back!” He said flatly.

Xu Jianfeng forcefully turned Xu Jianyao’s little head around and forcefully pried open his mouth to take a look see. With a nod and smile, he said, “Mmm… it’s grown back a little!”

Xu Jianyao forcefully pushed Xu Jianfeng’s giant hand away and fought him non-stop. “Hurry and let go!” He cried.

Xu Jianfeng pinched Xu Jianyao’s soft, supple face hard and flashed a mischievous smile. He let go.

Xu Jianyao shot a few cold glances at his own older brother, Xu Jianfeng, then furiously averted his head. This big brother always thought up new ways to bully him. How annoying!

Madam Xu walked into the dining room, and the children all got to their feet and cried, “Mother.”

A kind smile filled Madam Xu’s face, as she sat at the dining table. “Hurry, sit. Let’s eat.”

“Yes, Mother,” they replied, before taking their seats, picked up their chopsticks and started eating.

Xu Jianchen couldn’t but sit nervously in his seat, as he watched Xu Ziling take one bite of rice after another.

Xu Ziling picked up some vegetables and ate them with some rice. Every movement she made looked graceful.

Madam Xu watched Xu Ziling with a brimming smile. Although this daughter had a terrible temper, she was ruthless and could do anything if she put her mind to it. Other people would call her impulsive and reckless, but they did not know how wise, sensible, and experienced she was with the ways of the world. Whoever married her would truly have the fortune of eight lifetimes.

Madam Xu picked some food for Xu Ziling with an affectionate look on her face.

Xu Ziling looked up and smiled sweetly at Madam Xu, then bit into her food.
