Zhang Yu originally wanted to ask Wu Shuang to come over and meet the prince together, but after seeing the look on the lady's face, he quickly and wisely shut his mouth.
"Mom, can we go in?" Xiaowen and Xiaowu's eyes were full of expectation.
Xiaoxiao looked at Duan Yichen, then nodded, "Well, you guys will play here first, and Mom will go buy some things while I'm here to pick you up later."
"Oh, great!" The two little guys hugged Duan Yichen's neck happily, "Dad, come in quickly, we have a lot to say to you."
"Okay, just in time, Dad wants to try what knowledge you have learned these days."
Seeing the young master calling others "Daddy" one after another, Wu Feng and others felt uncomfortable. Zhang Yu took the initiative to act as a guard and guarded the door. Wu Shui was more thoughtful and asked to stay.
Wufeng and Wushuang, a couple, accompanied Xiaoxiao to the shops that were franchised under the name of Jun Wuge. When a few people just came out of a restaurant, they saw the waiter driving an unkempt woman.
"Get out of here! Get out of here! You don't even look at where this place is, and you want to come here to ask for leftovers? Bah, that's for my dog! Get out of here, don't disturb the guests, you will suffer!"
"
The woman's clothes were in tatters, her long hair was messy, and her left shoulder seemed to be injured. It was simply tied up with rags. The blood on it had long been mixed with soil and formed scabs. After being pushed to the ground by the waiter, she never appeared again.
Can get up.
Seeing that she didn't move, the waiter became anxious and kicked her legs hard, "Get out of here, don't pretend to be dead here! It's hindering business and I want you to look good!" Seeing that he was about to kick her a few more times, Xiaoxiao frowned.
He raised his eyebrows and said, "No wind,"
"Yes!" Wufeng understood, went over to stop the waiter, and said coldly, "Everyone has inconveniences at some point, so don't be too cruel!" After saying that, he glared, and the scarred left brow bone looked like
Can't say it's scary.
The waiter swallowed his saliva and looked at this group of people with sharp eyes. Knowing that they were all masters who could not afford to offend, he quickly smiled and said, "Uncle, it's not that I'm unreasonable. We also have to do business, right? The customers were scared when they saw her.
She was scared away, so I had no choice but to drive her away."
"Stop talking nonsense," Wu Feng took out a piece of silver and threw it to him, "Bring her something to eat."
The waiter's eyes lit up and he happily took it, "Okay, okay, little one, go ahead."
When Wufeng saw the woman lying there motionless, he stepped forward and gently turned her over -
"Guan Li?" Seeing her appearance clearly, the three of them were shocked. Xiaoxiao quickly took a few steps closer and saw that it was indeed Guan Li! However, now she has a sallow complexion and chapped lips.
He is usually elegant, but the wound on his shoulder still emits a stench.
She frowned and without thinking, she ordered Wufeng, "Take her back."
Wu Shuang interrupted, "Girl! She is Duan Yichen's woman, we might as well send her to him!"
Xiaoxiao shook her head, stared at the woman on the ground and said, "Guan Li is arrogant and arrogant. She will not allow herself to see Duan Yichen like this. Wu Feng, please send her back to the castle first and ask Wu Se to get treatment quickly."
.”
"Hey, okay," the two of them knew Xiaoxiao's temper and couldn't say anything else. Wufeng reluctantly lifted her into the carriage and took the lead back to the castle.
Arriving at the teahouse again, Wu Shui came forward and said, "They are still inside."
Xiaoxiao walked in and was ushered into the private room by the boss. She saw Xiaowen and Xiaowu, one lying on Duan Yichen's lap and falling asleep.
Just as she was about to speak, Duan Yichen signaled to her to be silent and said softly, "Shh... they just fell asleep." The loving eyes that fell on them made even Xiaoxiao move.
She walked over gently, sat down, looked at her two sons, lowered her voice and said, "They like you very much."
Duan Yichen laughed and shook his head, "Do they like Duan Zifei more?"
Xiaoxiao raised his eyes. He said softly, "From the moment they sat down, they kept complaining to me about how powerful their new father was, how harsh he was to them, and how he once locked them up with wolves...
…It’s easy to see from their beaming expressions that it’s more of a child’s subconscious showing off than they are complaining. They really like him.”
Duan Yichen's slightly narrowed eyes showed no emotion, and the words he murmured had no deep meaning. But the bitter arc at the corner of his mouth fell into Xiaoxiao's eyes.
"For them, no one can take your place."
His eyelashes trembled slightly, his eyes met hers, and he was in a daze for a moment, as if he had returned to the six years he had been with her.
"how about you?"
Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment, "Me?"
"To you, what does my existence mean?" He looked at her anxiously, and his unspeakable longing made people feel heartbroken. "Is it a passerby? A memory? Or a former lover?"
"Is there any difference?" Xiaoxiao said quietly with a calm expression, "If I could really fall in love with you again, during the six years you have been waiting for me, I would have opened my heart to you again long ago.
It's a pity that I have Zifei in my heart for a long time. It is an unforgettable love that I would rather exchange with my life."
He suddenly smiled self-deprecatingly, "Haha, I'm so enviable," he lowered his head and looked at his two sons with gentle eyes, without saying anything more.
Although she couldn't bear it, Xiaoxiao still said, "We should go."
Xie frowned for a moment, then slowly smoothed it out. He picked up Xiaowen and Xiaowu. The two children woke up in a daze at this moment. When they saw Xiaoxiao, they rubbed their eyes with their little hands, "Mom, yes
Are you coming to pick us up?"
"Well," Xiaoxiao smiled softly and stepped forward to hug her, but Duan Yichen glared at her, "You are pregnant now, so you can't do these things." He walked out of the private room with the two of them in his arms.
As he walked, he warned, "In the future, it is better to leave the castle less often. You are weak and need to raise your child with peace of mind. Just leave business matters to the people below. You don't need to show your face outside. Over at Qinglan Country,
Don't worry about it. If there is any trouble, I will send someone to notify you. Do you hear me?"
His endless entreaties made Xiaoxiao's eyes red. She had never felt that she owed him anything, but at this moment, she didn't know what to say.
He handed the twins to Zhang Yu outside, then turned back to Xiaoxiao and said, "Zhang Yu will stay with you. This boy is smart and has experience in leading troops in war. If anything happens, he can come in handy."
She chuckled and nodded, "Anyway, I want to thank you. I don't want them to be separated just after they got married."
