The Prime Minister’s Darling-Chapter 1536 - 746 Net Empty Life (Second Update)

Shangguan Yun didn’t speak, just looked intently at little Jingkong.

She reached out, gently touching little Jingkong’s cheek.

Gu Jiao: What’s happening?

Xiao Hen: I’m not sure.

After exchanging glances, the couple continued watching Shangguan Yun’s reaction.

Little Jingkong was also bewildered. Why was this pretty auntie touching him as soon as she arrived?

Shangguan Yun opened her mouth and asked softly, "What’s your name?"

"Jingkong," little Jingkong repeated his name.

Shangguan Yun continued, "How old are you?"

Little Jingkong puffed out his chest. "Eight years old!"

Xiao Hen’s mouth twitched. You’ve just added three more years?

Do you know you only look like you’re four? No one would believe such a tale, okay?

"Jingkong," Gu Jiao said, looking at little Jingkong.

Little Jingkong spread his hands: "Okay, okay, I’m five and a half."

Xiao Hen: You’re including half a year too?

"You..." Shangguan Yun started to say something, then stopped and smiled, saying, "You really are cute."

Little Jingkong, beaming, replied, "You’re very beautiful too!"

The two had a round of mutual flattery, and afterwards, the family began to eat.

Little Jingkong was too short, and National Master Hall didn’t have a special little stool for him, so Xiao Hen specifically found a high chair for him to sit on.

Little Jingkong sat opposite Shangguan Yun, while Gu Jiao and Xiao Hen sat across from each other.

While eating, Shangguan Yun occasionally glanced at little Jingkong, as if she really enjoyed watching him.

Feeling the kindness from Shangguan Yun, little Jingkong was also very willing to be close to her. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

He even generously shared his vegetarian sweet dumplings with Shangguan Yun.

After supper, he took Gu Jiao to the courtyard to catch fireflies.

Xiao Hen and Shangguan Yun stayed in the room, watching through the window as the two played.

Xiao Hen voiced his curiosity, "You seem very interested in Jingkong."

Sitting in an official hat chair, Shangguan Yun watched little Jingkong laugh uproariously and said, "Not really, he just reminds me of someone."

Xiao Hen paused, then asked, "Who?"

Shangguan Yun answered, "Your cousin."

Xiao Hen said, "I have many cousins."

Xuanyuan Li had a total of six sons.

Shangguan Yun continued, "Your younger uncle. When your grandmother was pregnant with him, she was of advanced age and her health was quite poor. Your uncle was much smaller than an average child when he was born, only starting to walk at two, speaking at three, and always frail. He was the only one in the Xuanyuan Family who didn’t practice martial arts."

He was also the least known to the world.

Men of the Xuanyuan Family were all exceptional in martial arts and full of meritorious deeds, except Xiaoliu, who was always weakly standing behind the door, unable to do anything. He could even fall ill from just basking in the sun.

Xiaoliu often joked that he didn’t seem like a child of the Xuanyuan Family.

In the entire Xuanyuan Family, he was the most useless one. He did nothing for the Xuanyuan Family, feeling he was unworthy of the Xuanyuan blood within him.

Xiao Hen said, "Jingkong is as strong as a little calf."

He could eat, sleep, and play, rarely getting sick, and if he did, he recovered quicker than others.

"I caught one! I caught one!" Little Jingkong grabbed a firefly, running around excitedly in the courtyard.

But he didn’t watch where he was going and, in his excitement, tragedy struck as he fell to the ground with a thud.

The sound of the solid impact was enough for Shangguan Yun to feel the pain for him.

Who would have known that the next second, little Jingkong scrambled up and continued panting and running forward, "Oh no! It flew away again! I can’t give up! I have to catch it!"

Shangguan Yun: "..."

Shangguan Yun sighed, "He really doesn’t resemble him much, after all."

If Xiaoliu had fallen like that, he might have died on the spot.

Little Jingkong played until he was covered in sweat.

Xiao Hen said to Shangguan Yun, "I’ll go switch with Jiaojiao."

The child was too energetic; truly playing with him could wear out the whole family, not to mention that Gu Jiao hadn’t rested well the night before. Xiao Hen wanted her to go rest sooner.

"Jingkong!"

As soon as Xiao Hen stepped into the courtyard, the Little Princesses came running with her skirt hem in hand.

Little Jingkong’s eyes lit up: "Xiaoxue!"

The two little ones met in the courtyard.

Little Jingkong tilted his head, "How did you get here?"

The Little Princesses sighed, "They were fighting and woke me up, so I came to find you."

Zhang Dequan walked over with a smile and greeted Xiao Hen with a bow, "Your Highness Changsun." Then he turned around and respectfully bowed to Shangguan Yun, who was behind the window.

"Teacher!" The Little Princesses greeted Gu Jiao, then she raised her little head to look at Xiao Hen, waiting for him to greet her.

Xiao Hen, caught between laughter and tears, said, "Little aunt."

The Little Princesses nodded in satisfaction, "Hm! Good nephew!"
