A man is sitting in a mountain of books and is busy forgetting himself.
His hair is messy, his face and hands are stained with ink, and he looks like a child who has just returned home from school. However, if you look closely, you will find that although this person is young, he is already about thirty years old. His eyes are firm, his expression is serious, and his whole body is...
There is an air of calmness about him that makes people feel respectful.
At this moment, he was looking for something on the bookshelf.
Suddenly his eyes stopped on a bookshelf somewhere, where there was a scroll. He took the scroll and unfolded it.
The scroll is actually blank!?
That's right, it's blank.
There are no words or pictures on this scroll, just a piece of white paper.
He frowned and stared at the white paper on the scroll, as if he wanted to see clearly what was hidden on the scroll.
Over the past few days, he has checked and compiled most of it, and he can go home if he is short of just this point.
How can it be blank?
"Mr. Baililang——"
There was a rapid knock on the door.
"Come in!" he said solemnly.
The door was opened, and a guard came in. He knelt down on one knee, clasped his hands and saluted, "The Lord wants you to return home immediately."
"Go back home?" Baili Zimu asked in disbelief.
"Yes, the Lord is at his residence congratulating your young master with a gift."
"What!?"
He seemed to be greatly stimulated.
He quickly packed up the scroll and put it back in its place, straightened out his messy clothes, and took out the handkerchief to wipe his cheeks.
He quickly walked out of the library and rushed towards the Prime Minister's Mansion.
He galloped all the way back to the mansion. When he saw his wife, he hurriedly greeted her, pulled her aside, and asked in a low voice: "What's going on?"
Xiao Qingli briefly told Baili Zimu what happened.
After listening, Baili Zimu's face became colorful, "How could you let him take the child away! What if he..."
At the end of the sentence, Baili Zimu was speechless, but her eyes were still full of worry.
"Are you mean to me?" Xiao Qingli stood there and spoke calmly.
Baili Zimu's heart rang with alarm bells, and he hurriedly explained: "No... Madam, please listen to my explanation. This is not what I mean by being a husband. How dare I do that?"
"Then what do you mean by what you just said?" Xiao Qingli asked indifferently.
Seeing that her eyes were slightly red, Baili Zimu was heartbroken and quickly stepped forward to hug her and comfort her:
"It's all my fault. Madam is so busy doing so much for me. She's so blessed that she doesn't know how to be blessed! Oh dear, please forgive me this time."
Xiao Qingli snorted coldly, turned her head to the side, and ignored him.
Baili Zimu apologized quickly and coaxed her for a long time before calming her down.
"Do you want to see the baby?"
Xiao Qingli suddenly raised her head and looked at Baili Zimu, her eyes shining with light.
Baili Zimu was very confused when he heard this.
Wasn't the child taken away by the master? Can he still see it?
"Let's go." Xiao Qingli looked mysterious, took his arm, and walked lightly to the wing.
The two of them squatted in the corner and looked through the window.
Xiao Qingli smiled sweetly, while Baili Zimu looked shocked.
Little sister?
With the Lord!?
At this moment, laughter and laughter were heard in the house. The girl was holding the little baby and giggling happily, while the master was looking at them tenderly and dotingly, with a helpless smile on his face.
"This, how is this possible!?"
Baili Zimu rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
No matter how you look at it, this looks like the déjà vu of an old married couple...
Compared to his shock, Xiao Qingli next to him smiled meaningfully.
Handsome men and beautiful women.
It’s really eye-catching!
"He looks so cute." Zhu Yu couldn't put it down while holding the pink and jade-carved baby, and didn't forget to look at the door.
"Why isn't my sister-in-law coming back? What should I do if the child gets hungry later?"
Xiao Baili was looking around with dark eyes, full of curiosity.
"Wow, um... drinking years~"
The little baby's voice is soft and sweet, with a natural cuteness.
The limbs were flexing in the air, and the mouth was pouting, as if it wanted to suck milk.
When Zhu Yu saw this, she couldn't help but pinch his excited little face. Unexpectedly, the child suddenly raised her head and came closer to kiss her.
"Wood~~"
The little baby's lips were soft and smooth, like cotton candy. Zhu Yu was stunned and a bright red color immediately appeared on his face.
"Wow! Did you see, he just kissed me!" Zhu Yu laughed excitedly.
A cold light flashed in Xie Jie's eyes, which was fleeting.
The next moment, he calmly hugged the little baby over and prevented Zhu Yu from getting close.
"What's wrong?" Zhu Yu looked at him with some confusion.
"Nothing, Master, I'm tired from hugging you. Let's take a rest." Xie Jie said indifferently.
"Okay." Zhu Yu curled his lips and turned around to pour the tea, but there was still some curiosity in his eyes.
The little baby looked at Xie Jie and suddenly grinned.
But in Xie Jie's view, it was all a provocation.
He held her tightly with both hands and his eyes were cold.
The little doll looked at him, seemingly unable to feel his anger, and smiled even more cheerfully.
"Son, don't be too arrogant!" Xie Jie gritted his teeth and whispered.
"Hee hee hee……"
The little doll continued to giggle with a proud look on his face.
"why are you laughing!?"
Xie Jie felt furious looking at his appearance.
no!
The Master likes him so much now, and will wait for him to grow up in more than ten years.
By that time, the child will be young and beautiful, while others will be old and yellow.
The Master will definitely be attracted to him, and he will not be able to keep the Master.
This thought rose in Xie Jie's heart.
He suddenly felt a little irritable.
"Son, if you laugh again, I'll spank you!" he threatened viciously.
When Xiao Baili heard his words, he immediately stopped smiling.
His eyes were wide open and his mouth was open wide.
Xie Jie was startled, and then a smile of success appeared on his face.
Haha, you must be scared.
You won’t be alone when you grow up, and you’ll look better!
"No, I'm so sorry for you~"
The little doll blinked its big eyes and showed a flattering expression on its face, looking extremely cute.
The two people squatting by the window: "..."
Did you hear that right? The Lord is jealous of a child.
Zhu Yu didn't know that the two had a "friendly meeting", but felt a little distressed when he saw Xie Jie being cute.
He is just an ordinary person who was born with no choice but to have his hands stained with blood.
Even if he doesn't want to.
But if not, he wouldn't be able to survive.
Zhu Yu stepped forward and touched the top of his hair with a kind look on his face, with a motherly light shining in his eyes.
Seeing this scene, 888 couldn’t help but click through, [Love starts from feeling sorry for the other person~]
Zhu Yu: "Huh?"
After a while, Xiao Qingli came over to hold the child. Zhu Yu looked at the male and female protagonist who were still very loving, and felt a burst of envy in his heart.
She also wants to have an ordinary and warm marriage, have a husband who loves her, and grow old together.
But she knew in her heart that that was impossible.
