Transmigrating Female Supreme: The Peerless Husband Depends on Me

As night fell, Zhou Chufan finally made it to the time when the government office was dismissed.

He hurriedly turned down the invitation from his colleagues and rushed to the Su Mansion without even having time to change into his official uniform.

Along the way, his heart was beating wildly, as if he had turned back into the little boy hiding behind his brothers.

As soon as he stepped into the mansion, he saw Gu Qingyan standing in the corridor.

The man was still dressed in black, with a stern look on his face, and was wiping the dagger in his hand. Zhou Chufan's eyes were filled with tears, and he blurted out, "Brother Ayan!"

Gu Qingyan looked up when he heard the voice, his eyebrows slightly raised, and the corners of his mouth curled up in a smile: "Oh, our prince is back."

Zhou Chufan no longer cared about his dignity as a prince. He rushed forward and gave Gu Qingyan a bear hug.

Gu Qingyan was knocked back half a step by him, but he caught him steadily and patted him on the back with his big hand: "You are so old, but you are still so impulsive."

"What are you doing? How disgraceful!" Lin Yuxuan happened to pass by. When he saw this scene, he immediately rushed over and slapped Zhou Chufan on the buttocks twice. "As a dignified prince, can you behave yourself?"

Zhou Chufan was not angry at all. Instead, he smiled and shrank into Gu Qingyan's arms, deliberately complaining: "Brother Yan, he hit me!"

Gu Qingyan tried to reconcile them, saying, "Axuan, Xiaofan just came back, don't bother him." But he honestly held Zhou Chufan in his arms and walked him towards Lin Yuxuan, with a mischievous look in his eyes.

"You!" Zhou Chufan struggled angrily, but he couldn't break free from Gu Qingyan's iron arms. He turned around and shouted into the house, "Sister! They bullied me!"

Su Yue poked her head out of the house when she heard the noise and couldn't help laughing when she saw the situation: "Is our little prince being subjected to 'domestic violence'?"

Yaoyao squeezed out from beside her legs, blinked her big eyes and looked at him, then suddenly imitated him and rushed towards Zhou Chufan: "Brother! Hug me!"

Zhou Chufan hurriedly caught the little girl, and was immediately so touched by her cuteness that he had no time to complain.

Gu Qingyan took the opportunity to rub his head, while Lin Yuxuan pinched his face, and the three of them laughed together.

Zhou Chufan held Yaoyao in his arms and looked at his family members surrounding him. Suddenly, he felt that no matter how noble a king was in the world, he could not compare to the warmth he felt at this moment.

Liang Junze and Shangguan Haomu talked in the study for nearly an hour, going over everything from the accounts of the Yangzhou shops to the changes in the situation in the capital.

Shangguan Haomu sketched on the paper and whispered, "Although the Zhao family has fallen, there are still many aristocratic families in the court who are eyeing it covetously, especially the Rui Wang faction..."

Before he could finish his words, a burst of laughter suddenly came from the yard, faintly mixed with Zhou Chufan's shouting.

Liang Junze shook his head helplessly and closed the account book: "It seems that our little prince is back."

As soon as the two of them walked out of the study, they saw Zhou Chufan rushing over and grabbing Liang Junze's sleeve: "Brother Aze! Brother Ayan and Brother Axuan teamed up to bully me!"

Liang Junze raised his eyebrows and pretended to be surprised: "How can the dignified Prince Ning'an be bullied by these two?"

Zhou Chufan choked and stamped his feet angrily: "You guys won't help me!"

Shangguan Haomu couldn't help laughing and patted his shoulder: "Your Majesty, calm down. How about I play a game of chess with you?"

"No!" Zhou Chufan turned and left, "I'm going to find Brother Chen!"

Shangguan Haochen was teaching Yaoyao to recognize the stars in the backyard. He looked up and saw Zhou Chufan rushing towards him. Without saying a word, he jumped on his back and said, "Brother Chen! They are bullying me!"

"Oh my little ancestor!" Shangguan Haochen staggered after being knocked aside. He quickly put Yaoyao aside and turned around to pinch Zhou Chufan's face. "Let me see, who is so bold as to bully our prince?"

Zhou Chufan was about to complain when he saw Yaoyao staggering towards him, grabbing the corner of his clothes with her little hand: "Brother, don't be angry, don't be angry~" As she said that, she stood on tiptoe to touch his head, but unfortunately she couldn't reach it.

Zhou Chufan immediately lost his temper and bent down to pick up the little girl: "Yaoyao still loves me the most."

Shangguan Haochen took the opportunity to ruffle his hair: "Alright, you're already grown up and still acting like a spoiled brat. Come on, I'll take you to the kitchen to steal some snacks."

“I want lotus crisps!”

"Shh—be quiet! Don't let Brother Xuan hear you!"

Under the moonlight, the backs of the two people sneaking towards the kitchen were exactly the same as when they were in Yangzhou many years ago.

Liang Junze stood in the corridor and watched this scene, smiling and shaking his head: "This child, even though he is a prince, he is still so childish."

Shangguan Haomu chuckled: "In front of us, he will always be the Xiaofan who needs protection."

Su Yue moved out a bunch of modern ingredients from the space, beef rolls, hot pot base, shrimp balls, fish balls... covering the entire kitchen chopping board.

She originally wanted to let the pregnant men have a good rest, but when she turned around, she found that everyone had crowded into the kitchen.

"You guys—" Su Yue looked at Mu Feng, Lin Yuxuan, and Shangguan Haomu, who were all pregnant, with a helpless smile. "The kitchen is so crowded, why are you three joining in the fun?"

Shangguan Haochen was stuffing his mouth with the shrimp paste he had just secretly eaten, and said vaguely, "Of course a family should be neat and tidy!"

Liang Junze smiled and shook his head, rolled up his sleeves and began to wash the vegetables, while Gu Qingyan silently took the knife and skillfully cut the beef slices.

Shen Yunyan handed Xinxin to Zhou Chufan and ran to mix the dipping sauce. However, Lin Yuxuan pushed him away with disgust: "Who are you trying to poison by putting so much cilantro in this bowl?"

"I just love coriander!" Shen Yunyan grabbed another handful and threw it in unconvinced.

Yaoyao and Hanhan were placed on small stools in the corner of the kitchen, each holding a piece of watermelon and biting it with juice all over their faces.

Xinxin was babbling in Zhou Chufan's arms, waving her little hands, trying to grab the jade pendant dangling from his waist.

"Sizzle—" The moment the hot pot base is put into the pot, the spicy and fragrant aroma spreads instantly.

Shangguan Haochen sneezed three times in a row, but he still insisted on staying by the pot: "Cook more meat!"

Su Yue looked at this chaotic scene and her heart softened.

There were no servants, so there was nothing to worry about. Even the Coke and Sprite in the space were placed openly on the table.

Mu Feng insisted on helping to set the table despite her bulging belly, but Liang Junze half coaxed her into a chair and said, "Grandpa, just sit still for a while."

"Is my shrimp paste ready?" Lin Yuxuan looked over the edge of the pot.

"It's not cooked yet!" Gu Qingyan tapped the back of his hand with chopsticks.

"Brother Ayan, you are biased! Why didn't you tell me that Achen was cheating just now!"

"Who made me the group's favorite!" Shangguan Haochen proudly took away another fish ball.

Zhou Chufan hugged Xinxin and laughed so hard that his shoulders shook.

He lowered his head and rubbed the little girl's milky face: "Xinxin, look, none of your fathers are reliable."

The hot pot was bubbling, and the steaming heat blurred everyone's smiling faces.

Su Yue was held in Liang Junze's arms, and a glass of ice cola was stuffed into her hand.

She looked at her family members bustling around the room—Mu Feng was fighting with Shangguan Haomu for the last piece of beef, Lin Yuxuan was secretly stuffing cilantro into Gu Qingyan's bowl, Shen Yunyan and Zhou Chufan were teaching Yaoyao how to use chopsticks...

It’s noisy, messy, but very happy.
