A short night is hard to please! A stunningly handsome prince dotes on her exclusively.

“Brother, that’s not what I meant. I just think that since both are jade pendants with begonia flowers, the first one is prettier.”

"Hehe~ Silly girl, both are equally beautiful. Yan'er has lost her memory now, so she naturally doesn't remember the gifts she gave before. But now they are just like the gifts she gave before, which shows that no matter what happened in the past, Yan'er will always be Yan'er. That makes brother even more gratified!"

After saying that, he hung the jade pendant on the sword and quickly tied the other one to his waist.

"Alright! Yan'er, look, does your brother look good like this?"

"nice."

Seeing her brother so happy, Xin Moyan felt a little uncomfortable. But now, she could no longer say anything about being resurrected. She just secretly vowed in her heart that she would take good care of her brother in the original owner's place. She also liked this brother very much and didn't want to see him worry and be sad because of her.

"Alright! I'm already deeply moved by what Yan'er did today. How come you look even more moved than I am!"

With a gentle and refined smile on his face, Xin Moling lightly put his arm around her shoulder, his eyes filled with even deeper affection.

"Don't worry, Yan'er, your brother will always be your brother, and he will always protect you."

"Ah."

Xin Moyan's feelings were complicated at this moment. In just a few days, she had felt her brother's strong love and care for her, but she always felt like an imposter, which made her very uneasy.

The brother and sister leaned against each other in silence for a long time before Xin Moling finally spoke slowly: "Yan'er, so you went shopping with Hua Buyu today to pick out a gift for your brother?"

"Yes, brother, I also picked out this jade pendant at Junjing Pavilion!"

Xin Moling suddenly remembered something and quickly looked up and asked in confusion, "Brother remembers that not long ago you only gave Yan'er jewelry and ornaments, but forgot to give Yan'er money for daily expenses. Where did you get the money to buy the jade pendant?"

Xin Moyan smiled mischievously and said slowly, "Brother, have you forgotten? Didn't I swindle a thousand taels of silver from Prime Minister Lou a few days ago? Well, here I am, using it to offer as a gift!"

"Hehehe~ My younger sister is truly intelligent. Speaking of which, I'm reminded of what Yuan Huaiyu said today: 'Yan'er, when Lou Shenghan returns, you should stay away from him to avoid being implicated and having your reputation damaged.'"

"Brother...brother, isn't it me who has a bad reputation?"

"My sister's reputation is anything but bad! My Yan'er is unmatched in heaven and earth. Anyone who dares to slander you, I'll cut them down with one sword!"

"Hehehe~ It's so good to have my brother backing me up!"

……

The next morning, Lou Shenghan swaggered over to visit his son. He hadn't seen him for several days, having only arrived in the capital late the night before. He couldn't wait to come to the General's Mansion this morning, and didn't even attend the morning court session.

Before he even reached the garden, he heard the sounds of adults and children playing happily, so he quickened his pace.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh~ Mother~ We're flying!"

"Does Xiaobao want to grow even taller?"

"Yes! Fly high!"

It must be said that the servants of the General's Mansion are really efficient. In just one day, they made a mini swing, which looks particularly small and cute.

Xin Moyan also thoughtfully reinforced two 'seat belts': one was tied around Lou Xiaobao's waist and connected to the ropes on both sides, and the other was fastened to his two little wrists to prevent him from getting tired and suddenly letting go.

"Lou Xiaobao!"

Lou Shenghan strode toward the two of them, and Cailian bowed to him politely this time.

"Daddy!"

After all, he was just a child. He hadn't seen his father for several days, and he was so excited that he wanted to get down. Xin Moyan quickly helped him untie the ropes.

"Daddy!"

"Little Bao, do you miss Daddy?"

Lou Shenghan scooped the child up in his arms and gave him a big kiss on the cheek.

"Mmm, baby misses Daddy!"

"Has Xiaobao been eating and sleeping well these past few days?"

"Yes! The baby ate a lot and slept very well."

"That's good!"

Lou Shenghan nodded with satisfaction and smiled gratefully at Xin Moyan beside him.

"Thank you for taking such good care of my son these past few days, Your Highness."

She waved her hand, speaking very politely as well.

"You flatter me, Prime Minister. With Xiao Bao here these past few days, the General's Mansion has become quite lively!"

She adores Xiao Bao, and besides, she gets a thousand taels of silver for taking care of the baby for a few days. She wouldn't mind having a few more adorable children like Xiao Bao, hahaha!

"Daddy, look, a swing!"

Lou Xiaobao pointed at the swing set in front of him, his young face full of excitement.

"So Xiao Bao likes swinging. When we get back to the manor, I'll have someone make a swing there, okay?"

"Great!"

She reached out and rubbed her son's head. The fatigue from days of traveling and sleeping outdoors vanished the moment she saw Lou Xiaobao. Her son was much more fun, and he seemed even happier than usual.

"Princess, you've taken such good care of Xiao Bao these past few days. How about I treat you to a meal?"

"No! No need. Now that the Prime Minister has returned to the capital, he will take good care of the child. If I have time, I will find another opportunity to visit Xiaobao. There's no need for a meal."

Xin Moyan waved her hands repeatedly. She hadn't forgotten Yuan Huaiyu's outrageous conjecture at Yunxiang Tower, or how badly he was beaten by her brother. If Lou Shenghan found out about this, she didn't know how angry he would be. After all, her reputation was bad, and suddenly becoming the 'birth mother' of the Prime Minister's young master would affect Lou Shenghan, the current Prime Minister. He would probably be laughed to death by his colleagues!

Lou Shenghan stared at her face suspiciously. If she didn't want it, she didn't want it. Why were her eyes darting around? What was she thinking?

"Princess, if you don't want it, then don't. Why are you so insistent on refusing? Could it be... that you fear I have ill intentions towards you?"

Xin Moyan didn't like hearing this. It made her sound narcissistic. She said with dissatisfaction, "Tsk~ Prime Minister, what you're saying is true. Although I am beautiful, it is normal for you to have changed your opinion of me. But I am not narcissistic to that extent. Prime Minister, please don't overthink it. I just don't want to talk to you."

"..."

Lou Shenghan's lips twitched uncontrollably. His sharp-tongued manner was completely different from the Xin Moyan he had known before!

However, Xin Moyan is quite amusing!

"Alright! Anyway, I've already paid you a reward. If we meet again in the future, we'll just be nodding acquaintances. Now that I'm returning to the capital, I'll take Xiaobao back to my residence first. If we have the chance and time in the future, I'll bring Xiaobao to sit with you for a while."

"Take care, Lou Xiang, Xiao Bao, see you next time!"

Lou Xiaobao pouted, about to cry, when Lou Shenghan covered her mouth and quickly left the General's Mansion...
