He was holding a teacup in one hand and a book in the other. He was rocking the rocking chair and occupying Su Ji's favorite seat. He was even deliberately insulting people and losing his status as a gang leader.
"It seems that Gang Leader Zheng still cares about me? "Thanks to Miss Wang, I'm still living a 'boring' life. I've troubled you." Tuoba Li was clearly pointing at the mulberry tree and scolding the locust tree, but he said it gently and amiably with a smile that was asking for a beating.
Mu Heng returned to his house first to give his godfather and godmother a little surprise.
"I miss Lan Zhi. I won't be like you. How annoying, hey!" He stuck out his tongue at Zheng Jun and walked towards the back of the house.
The clean and bright house wasn't too big, but it was very simple and bright. The simple furniture, even if it didn't have a gorgeous appearance, gave people a fresh feeling.
Lan Zhi was still as clean as ever. The house was spotless. Why wasn't she in the courtyard or in the room during the day? What was she doing? Su Ji wanted to find Lan Zhi in the room, but she was sure that she wasn't there.
Su Ji left Lan Zhi's house in disappointment. She was very disappointed. She had searched the whole house but couldn't find Lan Zhi. It seemed that her birthday was destined. Even in ancient times, there was still one person missing.
Zheng Jun was right. Lan Zhi had disappeared early in the morning without telling him.
Su Ji knew that Lan Zhi must have something to do. Just like last night, she didn't come back overnight. Su Ji didn't ask about it even though she said it clearly. This time, there must be a reason. Let's talk about it later.
When he returned to the courtyard, he saw the two people glaring at each other. He went forward and stood between the two aggressive roosters to stop them from crossing their eyes.
"You guys fight here. I'm going to godfather's house. Goodbye!”
As expected, Tuoba Li withdrew his murderous gaze and put on a charming smile. He walked to Su Ji's side and said," I'll go too!”His voice was as gentle as water. Su Ji felt her body tremble and goosebumps all over her body.
"Brother Jun, why don't you come along? Let's go get a free meal together?" Su Ji turned her head and looked at Zheng Jun with the same gentle gaze.
Zheng Jun didn't say anything, but he followed obediently.
His godfather and godmother were naturally very happy to see Su Ji, but they bowed deeply and said,"I didn't know that His Highness had arrived, so I didn't come to welcome you. Please forgive me."”Seeing that the two of them were about to kneel down, Su Ji immediately stepped forward to stop them.
" It's alright. I came here too suddenly. Please forgive me." Tuoba Li did not put on airs as a prince and bowed to support the two of them.
"Godfather, Godmother, let's go inside. He's just here to join in the fun. There's no need to be restrained. We'll just pretend that he doesn't exist!”Su Ji wanted her parents not to be careful with this prince and disturb their family reunion. However, they forgot that this was ancient times, and the social classes were very strict. Therefore, they were regarded as monsters by everyone.
Everyone came to the hall. Naturally, it didn't take long for plates of food to be served on the big round table. It was very sumptuous.
Su Ji smiled complacently and admired her masterpiece. She had booked a table of food in the restaurant and asked someone to send it to her. Indeed, money could make the world go round. The steaming hot food was the proof.
The family was happy and harmonious. They talked and laughed happily, especially the happy Su Ji. The smile on her lips was always there, but everyone present could see the bitter sorrow hidden in Su Ji's smile, which couldn't be covered by a bright smile.
When Su Ji was listening to her godmother's story about buying flowers, she accidentally picked up a very red tree pepper. Her face turned red at once as tears streamed down her face. She couldn't say a word. She just grabbed a cup and was about to give it to Su Ji. However, a big hand snatched the cup away and replaced it with another cup. After Su Ji finally drank a cup of tea, she fanned her mouth and shouted," It's too spicy, too spicy..."
Everyone in the room was looking at her. Su Ji lowered her head in embarrassment, only to realize that everyone was looking at Tuoba Li instead of her.
This was because Tuoba Li decisively took the wine cup from Su Ji's hand and swiftly replaced it with tea. He then naturally took out a silk handkerchief and wiped the remaining juice from Su Ji's lips. His actions were gentle and filled with care.
Zheng Jun was the one who had the biggest reaction. He was shocked to see everyone's mouth wide open. He spat out a mouthful of hot tea. Fortunately, Tuoba Li had dodged the attack quickly. Otherwise, he would have become the Lord of Saliva.
"Ah! Much better, thank you!" Su Ji acted as if she didn't see it and took the silk handkerchief to wipe her mouth.
She could only pretend that nothing had happened so that no one would suspect her. She was afraid that the more she explained, the darker it would be.
'Walk your own path and let others talk about it.' It was a famous saying that Su Ji liked very much.
Mu Heng was still the best and helped Su Ji out.
Tuoba Li naturally didn't care about the gazes of the people around him. Right now, she only had eyes for Su Ji and acted as if no one else was around. Su Ji had been avoiding him in the Prince's mansion, so she didn't ask him to restrain himself.
