Dingbei Hou's doctor brother

A rich young man can't even decide what to eat by himself?

Lu Ziqing looked at Chen Ji's innocent and pitiful appearance and asked, "How old are you?"

"Ten..." Chen Ji thought, rolling his eyes, "Fifteen."

He had to think about it to know his own age. Lu Ziqing found it a little unbelievable and looked at him and asked again.

"Are they all mean to you? What about your parents?"

Chen Ji shook his head and walked slowly across the street. "Even though Chang Wang and the others lived with me, they wouldn't let me go out. Today, I begged them for a long time before they took me out."

Lu Ziqing seemed to be certain that this person's childish speech was extremely inconsistent with his appearance, and he must be a problem child.

He saw Chen Ji walking into the beef noodle shop with a happy face. The shop was full of diners and very lively.

Chen Ji stood in the center and was unhappy. "There's no room left."

Lu Ziqing glanced around the store and saw a small table in the corner for miscellaneous items. He asked the waiter to clean up and sit over there, then ordered two bowls of noodles.

Chen Ji was playing with a pair of chopsticks casually, looking around happily. Lu Ziqing saw that his joy and sorrow came and went quickly, and he really had the nature of a child, so he couldn't help but smile.

"You seem happy?"

"Yeah." Chen Ji smiled innocently and thought for a moment, "Today... um... this year, it's my first time out."

"what?"

Lu Ziqing was surprised. Not leaving the house all year round was something he had never heard of or seen before.

"You said you haven't left the house for a year? Then what do you usually do at home?"

Chen Ji nodded seriously, counting on his fingers, and said, "Chang Wang asked me to climb a tree to pick up his kite. Maomao's ball fell into the pond, and Ding Gui asked me to pick it up. Tong Bao was annoyed by the noise of the cicadas and asked me to catch them. And Dezi's purse was missing. I searched for it all night in the mansion, and finally he said he had forgotten and didn't have it."

Lu Ziqing: “…”

They are all treating him like a fool. If that's the case, it's really hateful.

As they were talking, two bowls of noodles were already served on the table.

Chen Ji seemed to have never seen it before. He was so happy that he picked up a piece of beef with chopsticks, put it to his mouth, then stopped and looked at Lu Ziqing's bowl.

"Why is there no meat in Brother Shenxian's bowl?" He was generous and handed the meat over, "Come on, open your mouth and eat this."

Lu Ziqing moved his head back slightly, feeling a little overwhelmed by his enthusiasm, and smiled as he reached out to push him away.

"I don't like it, you eat it."

After leaving the shop, Chen Ji went to the shop on the street and picked out a lot of food. Lu Ziqing just paid for it in the back. For a moment, he had the illusion of an old father watching his son having fun.

He chuckled and shook his head, then followed and called Chen Ji. Chen Ji turned around with a bunch of things in his hands and responded with a smile.

"What happened to Brother Shenxian?"

Lu Ziqing said, "We've already eaten, and we bought so much. It's getting late, so I'll go with you to the river to wait and see if Chang Wang and the others are there."

Chen Ji's smile fell, he was unhappy, "I'm not going, I want to live at Brother Shenxian's house."

"what?"

Lu Ziqing couldn't control his expression for a moment. He coughed lightly and said, "You...you have to go home after dark. You can't stay at a stranger's house. Chang Wang and the others will be worried if you don't go back. Be obedient."

"I won't." Chen Ji frowned and pouted, standing still in the middle of the street. "Brother Shenxian bought me clothes and so many delicious foods. I'm very happy. Chang Wang and the others only let me pick up things."

Lu Ziqing secretly held his forehead and slowed down his speech to coax him.

"Chen Ji is fifteen years old. You should know that you can't just stay at a stranger's house. Your family will be worried if they can't find you. So just go home tonight. If you want to play with me in the future, tell me your home address and I'll come find you when I'm free, okay?"

"Not good." Chen Ji reacted quickly this time, taking a step back and getting angry. "Once you go back, you can never come out again. You won't be able to find me."

"But……"

"Brother Immortal is kind to me, he is not a stranger."

Chen Ji responded first, went up to Lu Ziqing, grabbed his sleeve and shook it gently, looking pitiful.

"Okay, Brother Shenxian, just promise me to go to your house. I'm very obedient and will definitely not cause any trouble."

"You...you...but I..."

Lu Ziqing stammered for a long time, not knowing how to answer. He was already shameless enough to live under someone else's roof, so how could he pick up another one?

If we leave people here, what if they encounter danger?

It's okay for a normal person, but he is...

Lu Ziqing glanced around at the passers-by, sighing inwardly, not knowing what to do. At this moment, he felt like he had picked up a hot potato that was difficult to get rid of.

Xiao Yan had just returned from the Duke of Wei's mansion after having dinner. The lights were on in the courtyard. Passing by the inner house, he saw Wen Zhong and several servants walking by in the corridor carrying empty buckets.

"Uncle Wen," he called out, "What are you doing with those buckets?"

"The Marquis is back." Wen Zhong stepped out from the shadows, the light shining on his face. "It was Master Lu who asked for hot water. He's giving the young master a bath."

Xiao Yan was stunned and put down his hands behind his back. "Who? What young master?"

"I don't know him either." Wen Zhong said, "Master Lu brought him back."

Xiao Yan said "Oh" doubtfully, "I see, go down."

The door of Chongcuixuan was closed, letting in a soft light and shadow. Xiao Yan walked over and knocked gently on the door, and soon the door opened.

A gust of warm air rushed out, and a handsome man in white underwear stood in front of the door, wiping his hair with a towel in his hand, staring at him with an inquiring look.

Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, "Prince Su? Why are you here?"

Before I could get a reply, I saw Lu Ziqing walking to the door.

"My Lord?" He pushed Chen Ji's shoulder to the side. "Go dry your hair. Be careful not to catch a cold."

Xiao Yan looked at the hand on Chen Ji's shoulder, then turned to the face above, and happened to meet Lu Ziqing's gaze.

He looked a little uncomfortable, and Xiao Yan's heart was also in his throat. He unconsciously tightened his hands behind his back.

When he first came to the mansion, he was so distant and uncomfortable, and now...

Xiao Yan sighed inwardly, and when he saw him come out and stand in the corridor, he spoke a little awkwardly.

"When I came back this afternoon, I rescued this child from the Xiling River. He had gotten separated from the people in the mansion and I couldn't find them. I brought him back without the Marquis's consent. I will send him back tomorrow."

Xiao Yan was stunned when he heard this. He was talking about this?

Looking at him now, he didn't look as uncomfortable as before, and my previously anxious heart suddenly relaxed.

"That's fine. You can bring anyone you want. You don't need my permission." Xiao Yan relaxed his brows and said, "He's Prince Su. I'll send someone to inform Prince Su's mansion later."

When Lu Ziqing heard the first half of the sentence, it reminded him of the awkwardness of last night. It was not until the second half that his expression changed.

"What? He's... Prince Su?" He glanced at the inner room and asked in a low voice, "The Emperor's son?"

Xiao Yan nodded and replied in a low voice, "He is the emperor's youngest son. He has a mental problem. He looks tall, but in reality he is only eleven or twelve years old."
