Chapter 27: Oldman Is Back! (2)

He Shaoting felt that the hatred in his heart brought by the Zhengyuan general had dissipated a few more points, so he couldn’t hold back for a moment and gently pinched the little girl’s face, just like Ruan’s usual action.

Xu Yun Yao was stunned rarely, stupidly touching the place where he had pinched, and it took a moment for her to slowly react – is this considered me being molested by the young moonlight boy?

Molested? No no, he even kissed me before. Now it was nothing more than squeezing my face! Immediately afterwards, she retorted in her heart.

Ruan-shi noticed their movement, and chuckled. She personally served He Shaoting a meal and said in a soft voice, “You must be hungry, right? Eat something first, and then I’ll ask the doctor to take a look at you.”

He Shaoting nodded and said softly, “Thank you, Madam.”

Ruan-shi rubbed his head and just smiled, not saying anything else.

But despite this, He Shaoting felt a warm current flowing slowly in his heart, dispelling the chill that the man’s words had brought him today.

He bowed his head and his voice couldn’t hide his guilt: “I’m sorry, madam, I wasn’t able to help Master Tang.”

A trace of bitterness flashed in Ruan-shi’s eyes, but her face still wore a gentle smile as she patted his shoulder and said comfortingly, “Don’t think too much, all these are of no concern to you, Master Tang, he will be back soon.”

“Really?”

“Yes, you have to believe that evil does not prevail over good, this is a different time, there will not be such a bad thing as framing an official of the court under His Majesty’s rule.” Ruan-shi’s voice carried an incomparable firmness.

Xu Yun Yao was noncommittal.

In this world, light and dark, black and white would never be  distinct from each other. Today’s Prince Rui, the future Emperor of Taizong, is a famous monarch of a generation. Under his rule, the great Qi national strength was growing rapidly, and the people’s life was more and more promising. However, it could not cover his dishonesty in fighting for the throne of emperor.

But so what? This still did not damage his position in the hearts of the people, the courtiers and even the historians. Later generations would only remember his wisdom and achievements.

Zhou’ger looked at He Shaoting with fluttering eyes and suddenly let out an ‘ah’, attracting the attention of Ruan and others.

“Brother Ting, it’s all my fault, the steamed rice cake I saved for you was snatched by my sister.” The little guy felt like crying.

Xu Yun Yao was taken aback for a moment, then opened her big wet eyes and retorted with a soft voice: “A lie, I didn’t snatch it, it’s big brother who gave it to me.”

If you can tell a lie with your eyes open, so can this lady.

Zhou’ger opened his small mouth slightly, then puffed his cheeks, and scratched his ears, muttered a few words, but did not say anything else.

Ruan-shi shook her head helplessly, took away the spoiled white sugar cake from her daughter’s hand, took the wet handkerchief handed over by Bi Wen and wiped her hands, at the end of which she pinched her fleshy face and gently touched her son’s forehead, eliciting a pleasing smile from the little one.

He Shaoting looked at the mother and children, he felt a bit of jealousy, and a bit of sadness.

When she was alone at night, Xu Yunyao called out Yan Wu.

When the figure with messy long hair and torn clothes appeared in front of her again, Xu Yun Yao was speechless: Well, how can you make yourself look like this again?

""

Yan Wu waited for a long time for this moment, so she immediately approached her, grabbed her torn sleeves and said: “Didn’t Yaoyao ask me to protect that brother Ting? You see? In order to save him, my clothes were torn and hair messed up.”

Xu Yunyao patted the back of her hand insincerely: So it was like this, it really gave my sister Wu a hard time!

Yan Wu suddenly felt relieved, and she thought: Yaoyao actually said I’m part of her family!

Xu Yun Yao perfunctorily coaxed her a few more times before asking her about what happened yesterday.

But when she heard that He Shaoting had rushed to the Zhengyuan general despite the situation and asked him if he had done anything he regretted, she could not help but frown strangely.

The Zhenyuan General, Du Chengzhong? Could it be that the Moonlight Boy has anything to do with him?
