Yan Tinglan served the Queen Mother a bowl of soup, "Mother, here it is."

"Yes." The Queen Mother nodded.

He skillfully served a bowl of soup to Zhu Fuli, then to An An, and also served a bowl to Yan Chengfeng.

"Thank you, daddy."

"Thank you, Father."

"Drink it. Didn't you say you were hungry?" Yan Tinglan patted An An's head.

The other children looked at them with envy. The Queen Mother took a look and sighed in her heart.

Even if Yuan'er were still here, things wouldn't be better than they are now.

After the meal, Yan Tinglan squatted in front of An An, "An An and brother stay here with grandma, and come back tonight, okay?"

"But I want to go back with my mother."

Yan Tinglan held her in his arms and kissed her forehead. "Look, both mother and grandmother like An An. An An stays with mother every day, but spends very little time with grandmother. Grandmother also likes An An very much. Can An An accompany grandmother?"

"Ok."

"It's a deal then. An An, come back before going to bed tonight." Yan Tinglan extended his index finger.

"It's a deal." An An also stretched out her index finger and placed it against his.

"Good baby."

"Good daddy."

Yan Tinglan smiled.

He waved to Yan Chengfeng, who was sitting next to Zhu Fuli, to come over.

"Father."

"Play here with An An, and come back before going to bed tonight."

"Oh."

Yan Tinglan made arrangements for his daughter and adopted son, and took Zhu Fuli back to Fengyi Palace.

After entering the inner hall, he picked her up and carried her horizontally, then laid her on the bed. He held her hand with a scorching gaze.

"Ali, I missed you."

Zhu Fuli looked at him, her eyelashes trembling. She certainly knew what he was talking about.

She looked calm and said, "Kiss me."

Yan Tinglan chuckled, kissed the corner of her lips, and put his hand on her waist with nimble fingers.

……

The Queen Mother felt sleepy after playing with An An for a while. She touched An An's head and said, "Grandma is sleepy. Do you want to go to bed with me, An An?"

"But I'm not sleepy yet."

"Then let your brother take you out to play. Grandma is old and can't stay awake."

"Then go to sleep, grandma. Sweet dreams."

"it is good."

An An sat on the couch and solved the Nine Links, while Yan Chengfeng watched her from the side.

"Brother, here you go." She took a Luban lock from the side and put it into Yan Chengfeng's hand.

Yan Chengfeng touched her head and played with it for her.

The four-year-old Seventh Prince came over, biting his lip and looking at An An in a troubled manner.

An An looked up at him, and seeing that he didn't say anything, she didn't say anything either.

She lowered her head and continued to watch Yan Chengfeng play, "Brother, slow down."

"Okay." Yan Chengfeng slowed down his movements.

The Seventh Prince was finally willing to speak. He asked, "Why is Father so kind to you?"

An An looked up at him, "Why? He is my father. He is the best to mother and the second best to me."

"But he is also my father, why isn't he nice to me?"

The other princes and princesses were also watching from behind, apparently wanting to get an answer.

The emperor had never visited them. The older ones remembered that he had come to see them when they were young, but the younger ones had never seen him since they were born. They only took a cautious peek at him from afar when he came to the Cining Palace.

"Go ask Dad."

The Seventh Prince cried, but he didn't dare.

"Brother, do you know? Father treats you well, and you are obviously not the Queen's biological son."

Yan Chengfeng picked up An An and said, "You will know later."

"Sister, let's go to bed."

"Oh fine."

"Xiaoqi." Yan Chengye pulled the seventh prince back.

"Second brother, doesn't the emperor like us?"

Yan Chengye was silent, "Yeah."

His biological mother died in prison because she attacked Yan Chengfeng. Maybe his father just didn't like him.

The seventh prince shed more tears, but he didn't cry very loudly.

"Go to sleep and don't disturb the Empress Dowager." Yan Chengye wiped his tears.

The Seventh Prince held back his tears.

The nanny who was watching them sighed.

After dinner, Yan Chengfeng took An An back to Fengyi Palace and saw Zhu Fuli lying on a chair reading a book.

"Mother."

"Mom~" An An threw himself into her arms, "Mom smells so good~"

Zhu Fuli pointed to the chair next to him and said to Yan Chengfeng, "Sit down. There are cakes you like on the table."

"Thank you, Queen Mother."

She kissed An An's cheek, "An An smells so good too."

"My mother and I both smell good." An An hugged her neck, kissed her cheek, and rubbed her neck.

Yan Tinglan strode in from outside the hall, "I'm back."

"Daddy~" An An turned her head from Zhu Fuli's arms and looked at him.

"Father."

"Yeah." Yan Tinglan sat next to Zhu Fuli and poked An An's face.

An An glared at him and grabbed his fingers, "Daddy, you are bad~"

Yan Tinglan had a smile on his face. Ali must have been very cute when she was a child.

"Well, Daddy is bad, Mommy is good."

An An released his fingers, hugged Zhu Fuli's face and kissed her.

Zhu Fuli kissed her neck, causing her to laugh out loud.

"Father, today the Seventh Prince asked An An why you are nice to An An but not to them." Yan Chengfeng said.

Yan Tinglan turned his eyes away from the mother and daughter, "People's hearts are biased, not to mention that they have nothing to do with me."

An An asked curiously, "Why is it okay?"

"Because, Daddy only has An An as his baby." Yan Tinglan replied to her, imitating her tone.

"Ah? Isn't brother Daddy's baby too?"

"Well, no, your brother should call me uncle. I am his father's younger brother."

An An thought about it, then nodded, "Should other brothers and sisters also call you uncle?"

"Yes, An An, you must keep it a secret."

"Okay~"

Yan Tinglan kissed her forehead and said, "Good girl."

He was not afraid that An An would leak the secret. An An was very smart and her mouth was even tighter than Yan Chengfeng's.

Yan Tinglan looked at Yan Chengfeng and said, "Go wash up and go to bed. I will check your homework tomorrow."

Yan Chengfeng's face fell all of a sudden. Although he could do it, it didn't mean he liked doing homework, let alone checking it.

Zhu Fuli picked up An An and said, "Baby, let's go take a bath, okay?"

"Well, I want to smell as good as my mother~"

"Good~"

After washing up, Zhu Fuli put An An on the bed and kissed her face, "Are you sleepy, An An?"

"not sleepy."

Zhu Fuli held her in his arms and said, "Then read with mother."

"Good~"

Yan Tinglan got on the bed, put his arms around Zhu Fuli's waist and rested his chin on her shoulder.

Zhu Fuli put the book in his hand and leaned into his arms, "You turn the page."

Yan Tinglan held her in his arms and adjusted her into a comfortable position, then tirelessly turned the pages of a book for her.

Later, An An didn't sleep, but Zhu Fuli fell asleep.

An An glanced sideways and said in a low voice, "Daddy, Mommy is asleep."

"Yeah." Yan Tinglan lifted her out of Zhu Fuli's arms, hugged Zhu Fuli and lay down, covering her with a quilt.

"Mother is tired."

"Why? An An isn't even tired."

"An An will know when she grows up. Do you want to go to the toilet? I'll ask someone to take you there." He pinched the little girl's face.

"No." An An pushed his hand away, "Daddy, don't pinch my face."

"Then why can mother pinch it?"

"My mother and I are best friends, so of course my mother can do it."

"Okay, go to sleep An An and don't disturb mother." Yan Tinglan smiled silently.
