The three-year-old host decides to raise an emperor father for himself.

Upon receiving the sudden message from Zhu Xiyue, Xuan Yuanjing hesitated for a moment before sighing and picking up Xuan Yuanlanxing, saying, "Xingxing, how about we finish the weapon tomorrow during the day?"

"Look, the lighting here, even with lamps, is still not as bright as during the day. Looking at it for too long is bad for your eyes."

Xiao Lanxing: [Huh? Daddy's words make so much sense.]

Thinking this to herself, Xiao Lanxing nodded her head and reached out to touch Xuan Yuanjing's brow: "Alright then."

She could tell that her father didn't want her to cause trouble tonight, so she decided to obey.

System: [Indeed, excessive screen time in this environment can be quite harmful to the eyes.]

System: [Play again tomorrow.]

Xiao Lanxing: [This isn't a joke.]

Little Lanxing protested: "I want to increase Daddy's attack power!"

Then, the little girl paused, puzzled: "Huh? Why is it attack power?"

Without needing any system explanation, the little girl's quick mind worked, and she swiftly dismissed her doubts: "Hmm, I'm not playing around, you can't say anything like that!"

System: 【…Um, I'm sorry, I misspoke.】

Forget it, just be happy.

While exchanging information with Pei Qingzhu about Zhu Xiyue's current situation, Xuan Yuanjing, who was also distracted by the little girl's "talking to herself," unconsciously relaxed his slightly furrowed brows.

Pei Qingzhu relaxed a bit: "...Although it almost turned into a tragedy, fortunately our people found her before things got worse."

"Although Miss Zhu still suffers from amnesia, she feels a sense of familiarity when General Zhu is mentioned. When you talk about Madam Zhu, Miss Zhu will shed tears, although she herself does not understand why."

Xuanyuan Jing: "Didn't that family tell her?"

Pei Qingzhu shrugged: "No, they said they were worried that if Miss Zhu knew about General Zhu and Madam Zhu's accident, she would get emotional and cause trouble."

After a moment's thought, Xuanyuan Jing understood.

Regardless of the family's reasons for not informing Zhu Xiyue about this, their act of saving Zhu Xiyue at the risk of their own lives is a genuine act of kindness.

Pei Qingzhu: "Their method of hiding Miss Zhu was actually quite simple, you could say they were being clever. The family told others that Miss Zhu was their arranged marriage for their child, and that she came to seek refuge because her family had run into trouble and they had no one left."

Pei Qingzhu: "Then, regarding Miss Zhu's identity, the only people who know her are the couple who discovered her and an old man surnamed Kang who is in charge. It was also the old man who told his son and daughter-in-law not to tell anyone else in the family about it."

"Miss Zhu was treated like a half-daughter-in-law and did a lot of work in their house. Many people saw this, and because of this, her identity was never questioned."

Xuanyuan Jing: "...She has suffered."

Xiao Lanxing: [Hey, why did you hide it like that?]

Xuanyuan Jing paused slightly.

Xiao Lanxing: [Oh, I see. It's because Sister Zhu is the same as everyone else.]

Then a new question popped into the little girl's mind: "Does everyone else have to do a lot of work every day, just like Sister Zhu?"

Xiao Lanxing: [Does being a wife mean I have to do chores?]

It was obvious that the little girl was communicating with that invisible person.

Xuanyuan Jing frowned again.

Unable to hear the voice of the other being, Xuan Yuanjing was unsure what the other person was saying to his star, which caused him displeasure at this moment.

The system heard the alarm that the target's mood value was dropping rapidly, but it numbly ignored it. Ha, what else could it do? It was impossible for it to pop up and greet Xuan Yuanjing with "Hi".

The system could only say: "Xuanyuan Jing is unhappy. Host, you'd better try to appease him."

Actually, Xiao Lanxing had already noticed it without the system saying anything.

She snapped out of her daze, leaned against Xuan Yuanjing's chest, and cupped his cheeks with her small hands, asking in confusion, "Daddy, are you unhappy?"

Xuanyuan Jing smiled and said, "No."

Pei Qingzhu stopped speaking as the little girl made her movements, thinking to herself: [Doesn't the Prince realize how furrowed his brow was just now? It was so obvious; I could tell he was unhappy. The young princess is always so perceptive, how could she not notice?]

Xuanyuan Jing's expression softened slightly, and he turned to look at him: "It's good that the person has been found. Chen Li will make the arrangements. If there is any new information, please inform me immediately."

Pei Qingzhu: "Yes."

After that, Pei Qingzhu talked about some other things, but Xiao Lanxing was focused on observing Xuan Yuanjing's facial expressions. Those words entered her little ears but did not enter her heart.

After Pei Qingzhu left, Xuan Yuanjing's gaze returned to Xiao Lanxing. The little girl rubbed her soft little face against his cheek: "Daddy, are you all better now?"

She had clearly sensed that Xuan Yuanjing was unhappy before, but for some reason, as the little girl began to observe the changes in his expression, Xuan Yuanjing's mood gradually improved.

Xiao Lanxing: ?

Xiao Lanxing: [Daddy is so fickle! He's changed for the better again!]

Xuanyuan Jing's expression softened again, letting the little girl move around in his arms as he walked towards her little room: "With Xingxing here, even if Daddy is unhappy, he will get better soon."

Gently placing the little girl on the couch, Xuan Yuanjing bent down to untie the ties of her little cloak, asking, "Now that there's no one else around, Xingxing, is there anything you want to say to Daddy today?"

This was actually asking Xiao Lanxing if there was anything "Tongtong" wanted to tell him.

Xiao Lanxing tilted her head: "Hmm?"

The system is now silent and has gone into a state of isolation.

Xuanyuan Jing rephrased the question: "What else does Xingxing know about Zhu Xiyue?"

Xiao Lanxing: "Sister Zhu?"

She tilted her head and raised her hand to help Xuan Yuanjing take off her little jacket. Many thoughts flashed through her little head, all of which were about Zhu Xiyue that the system had just told her.

[...Sister Zhu's new family members were murdered. To seek revenge, Sister Zhu will marry someone, and then she will fight with a group of women in the backyard...]

[Oh, and they also said that after Sister Zhu regained her memories, she found herself married into her enemy's family. After avenging her family, she killed the entire enemy family...]

Xiao Lanxing's little mouth opened slightly, about to say something, when Xuan Yuanjing smiled and gently pinched her little mouth: "Why are you calling me 'sister'? Does Xingxing really like Zhu Xiyue?"

Little Lanxing was still thinking: [But none of that will happen, Sister Zhu is now... ah, she's starting a new life! Yay!]

Xiao Lanxing: "Hmm? You like Sister Zhu? Yes! She's such a handsome sister!"

The words and the heart's voice completely overlap.

[Avenging her family! So cool! I want to be like Sister Zhu!]

[Daddy is the most important!]

Xuanyuan Jing was slightly taken aback, and raised his hand to press his chest.

It's so warm.

Okay... I'm happy.
