The Three-Life Stone

An Nan was still in shock. Hua Xiaoyao tidied up An Nan's messy hair and asked someone to bring her a comb. She was a vegetarian and didn't dress up. Hua Xiaoyao pulled out a sandalwood hairpin, and An Nan's hair fell apart. Hua Xiaoyao combed An Nan's hair and said, "Don't think too much, sister. Duanmu Zhi is not a bad person. When you go back, treat her as you always did. Don't have any grudges. She knows your temper and the difference between you and her. She will treat you well."

An Nan turned around and buried his face in Hua Xiaoyao's chest, hugging Hua Xiaoyao's waist: "Sister, it's just that I don't understand, I don't understand."

"What's there to understand? Everyone has their own aspirations." Hua Xiaoyao stroked An Nan's head along her hair.

An Nan seemed to have figured it out and let Hua Xiaoyao take care of her hair. She looked at the two children and asked Hua Xiaoyao, "So, will you stay in Taohuajian forever? Where are the children?"

"If I'm not mistaken, Lin Xuan will go back after staying for a while. He is a man who should have ambitions. The Imperial Concubine and the Emperor will definitely be able to teach him well. Lin Yue is a girl, so she has less sense of security and doesn't need to learn so many books. She will stay for a few more days. If you are worried, you can accompany him."

"Sister, I'm not worried. I just want to get some fresh air."

Lin Xuan stayed in the palace for half a year before someone took him back. He became much more cheerful after returning. He told people around him that the Buddha appeared and let him see his mother. Everyone thought that the child was missing his mother too much and couldn't distinguish between dreams and reality.

Hua Xiaoyao was right. Duanmu Zhi treated Lin Xuan very well. Lin Xuan had two mothers and a father who loved him, and he grew up in a loving environment.

Because Lin Yue left the palace under the pretext of being sick, and later the abbot came out to say that the little princess's soul was temporarily unstable and she needed to stay for a few more days, no one doubted that there were people in the temple who were the emperor's people, and the emperor had even sent people to the temple to cover up his tracks.

Lin Yue was also very comfortable living outside the palace, running around the mountains all day long. An Nan would find little toys to play with herself and take Lin Yue to play with her. Lin Mo would come to visit and stay for a few days every two or three months. An Nan suddenly envied Hua Xiaoyao for having someone who loved her so much, but she also liked this freedom.

Hua Xiaoyao took An Nan to "Wind, Flowers, Autumn and Moon Night". An Nan felt very restrained. In previous years, she was a lady from a wealthy family and never went out of the front door or the back door. Even if she had millions of dollars in generosity, she could only stay in the small space in the backyard. At most, she would go to the backyards of other ladies' houses. The closest thing to the market was a unique ice drink shop.

Now she is satisfied to be able to stroll freely on the street. She didn't expect that a more open store would open near the ice drink shop. She didn't expect that this is the store that men and women can go to normally after the reform.

Hua Xiaoyao prepared two glasses of sparkling orange juice, one glass of regular orange juice, and a glass of Qin Yunhuai's favorite wine.

Hua Xiaoyao and An Nan sat together. An Nan felt a little awkward in front of a foreign man. Dong Xue stood by. Lin Yue liked this good-looking old demon very much and called him "Uncle" sweetly.

Qin Yunhuai was a little surprised that Hua Xiaoyao left the palace. He smiled and pinched Lin Yue's little face and asked Hua Xiaoyao: "Your daughter?"

"Ah."

Lin Yue was unhappy with the other party pinching his face, so he reached out to pinch Qin Yunhuai's face. Qin Yunhuai put one hand on Lin Yue's head, and Lin Yue could not move forward.

Qin Yunhuai smiled and said, "It's quite interesting. I didn't expect that he, who is so taciturn, and you, who are so indifferent, could give birth to such a lively daughter."

Before Hua Xiaoyao could react, An Nan could no longer sit still. He picked up Lin Yue and moved in front of Qin Yunhuai. Lin Yue pinched him hard with both hands, and Qin Yunhuai's mouth corners were pulled apart in a funny way, which made everyone laugh.

Only then did An Nan realize that the person in front of him was quite easy to get along with, at least it was consistent with his inner and physical temperament.

I don't know if it's because Qin Yunhuai is good-looking or because Qin Yunhuai is very much to Lin Yue's liking, but Lin Yue was reluctant to let him go. Qin Yunhuai also liked this little guy very much. On the way back, he picked up the little guy and started the flight mode. Since they went back early, no one had returned except a few maids. Qin Yunhuai took the little guy and flew across the sky like a bird.

"Little guy, aren't you scared?"

"Uncle is here, Yue'er is not afraid."

"You trust your uncle so much?"

"Well, Yue'er believes in uncle and thinks he is a very good person."

Qin Yunhuai was helpless. This little guy was so easy to deceive. Was he really a good person? If he was, would he have disregarded thousands of lives for status? Could such a person really be a good person? It seemed like a long time had passed. Ever since he met that person, his life goals had changed.

It's just that he has lived too long, so long that he is numb. He dares not have any feelings for ordinary people around him, for fear of always facing separation. The moment Qin Yunhuai lost his ambition, he was no longer suitable to be the lord of the devil, and could only be a wandering man in the world.

In order to teach the little guy in his arms a lesson, Qin Yunhuai let go of his hand.

The little guy shouted excitedly: "Ah~"

Qin Yunhuai flew down to hug her with satisfaction after hearing her shout. When he saw her smiling face again, he couldn't help but be curious: "Aren't you afraid?"

"I am afraid, but Yue'er believes in my uncle, so Yue'er is learning to adapt. I may never have such an experience again."

Qin Yunhuai continued to hold Lin Yue in his arms and flew, saying: "You trust someone you have only met once. This will hurt you."

"Uncle, although Yue'er is meeting you for the first time, this is not the case for mother. Mother can safely hand Yue'er over to you, which means she trusts you."

Qin Yunhuai's face finally showed a little satisfaction. That guy's child was indeed smart. He didn't just follow him blindly, but also knew how to analyze the situation on his own.

"What if someone else takes you out to play and buys you delicious food?"

"It's not like Yue'er doesn't have anyone to play with, and it's not like Yue'er doesn't have delicious food." Lin Yue felt a little insulted at his IQ and wanted to roll his eyes, but he held back because it wouldn't look good.

"Okay, what if the other person is better looking than uncle?"

"Yue'er is not a superficial person. Yue'er is not greedy. Having a father and an uncle is enough for him."

Qin Yunhuai was very satisfied and brought Lin Yue back to the bamboo house in Taohuajian. However, when they got to the bamboo house, he did something naughty again. She wanted to see how Hua Xiaoyao and An Nan would fall when they saw Lin Yue.

"Ah~"

"Ah~~"

Lin Yue's excited shouts and the shouts of the maids echoed throughout half of the valley.

An Nan was almost frightened to death, and Hua Xiaoyao was also shocked. She calmed down when she saw Lin Yue's magic, but she couldn't calm everyone down in a short time. She just looked at the group of people and her Qin Yunhuai who seemed to be smiling.

"Hey, Qin Yunhuai, if you don't catch it, it's really going to fall to the ground." Even though Hua Xiaoyao knew it wasn't dangerous, her heart was still pounding and she couldn't help but remind him.

Qin Yunhuai looked at Hua Xiaoyao and knew that she was not as calm as she appeared. An Nan was indeed confused. After seeing Qin Yunhuai fly down and catch Lin Yue, there was still something she didn't understand.

An Nan didn't care about his image because of the mood difference before and after, and he started cursing. Qin Yunhuai, who was scolded, was in a good mood because of this play, and flew away all of a sudden.

"Okay, okay, mother, don't be angry. Uncle is just playing with Yue'er."

"And you too, you followed someone because they were good-looking. If you get cheated when you grow up, just cry. Don't be sold and count money for others."

Lin Yue didn't realize that he was being scolded for comforting his mother. He looked at her for help like his mother did, not knowing that An Nan was indeed scared and it was all out of concern. Hua Xiaoyao didn't have a better way and just gave her a look that told her to wish her the best.
