Chapter 251: Chapter 239: When I Grow Up, I Want to Marry My Young Aunt (First Update)

Here is the translated text:

Yi Luowa looked at Duoduo in confusion, "Sound? What sound?"

"Listen!" Duoduo, seeing Yi Luowa hadn’t understood, shouted with all his strength.

Little Raindrop was already laughing uncontrollably on the side, while Yi Luowa suspiciously looked at the mother and son pair.

Little Raindrop chuckled, "Don’t listen to Duoduo’s nonsense."

The car slowly drove into the courtyard, and Yan Zi stood under the eaves with a six or seven-year-old purple-eyed boy with chestnut-colored curly hair.

As soon as Yi Luowa saw the child, her eyes lit up, "Sis, this must be Jacques! Your two kids are one better-looking than the other!"

Little Raindrop wore a blissful smile, "In the future, your kids with Airui will definitely be prettier than these two."

"I don’t have your kind of luck." Yi Luowa smiled, carrying Duoduo as she got out of the car.

Jacques stared at her with his bright, sparkling eyes. Yan Zi ruffled his hair, "Jacques, call ’Auntie.’"

Jacques ran over quickly, "Hello, Auntie!"

"Oh, our little Jacques is so polite!" Yi Luowa bent down and kissed his little cheek.

Duoduo, seeing that Yi Luowa had kissed his brother but not him, stubbornly wriggled in Yi Luowa’s arms in dissatisfaction.

Yi Luowa smiled and nibbled his little nose, "Auntie will kiss you too."

Duoduo let out a small sound and pursed his lips, waiting for Yi Luowa to kiss him. Yi Luowa laughed and kissed Duoduo again, which made him finally giggle.

Jacques looked up at his younger brother, curling his lips disdainfully.

"Second Bao, Auntie is back." Once the words were spoken, First Bao came running out.

Second Bao followed carrying a car model, "Auntie, you’re finally back; we’ve missed you so much!"

Yi Luowa laughed, kissing each of their cheeks, "Have Dad and Mom also come back?"

"They’re back." First Bao clung to Yi Luowa’s arm, leading her inside, "Auntie, Grandpa renovated your room. We tested it—it’s soundproof. My brother called me from outside, and I couldn’t hear a thing. So fun!"

Second Bao rushed after him, "Auntie, you need to ring the bell to enter your room. I rang it all morning, and Grandpa said I nearly drained its battery."

Yi Luowa paused slightly and turned back to look at Little Raindrop.

Little Raindrop jokingly smacked First Bao on his butt, "You’re always the chatterbox!"

"Auntie is the big bad guy!" First Bao covered his butt and ran inside.

Second Bao, seeing his brother run, followed him into the house.

Blushing, Yi Luowa asked, "Sis..."

"Haha..." Little Raindrop had just started laughing but was smacked lightly by Yan Zi.

Yan Zi smiled, "Your dad said Rui’er’s room is going to be your new marital room in the future. Since you two weren’t home these past few days, he decided to start tidying it up out of boredom. Actually, there wasn’t much to tidy—he just improved the soundproofing."

Yi Luowa’s face grew even redder. Holding Duoduo and leading Jacques, she quickly headed into the hall.

As she entered, Little Raindrop, hugging Yan Zi, laughed, "Mom, the way you put it—just ’soundproofing,’ hahaha..."

Yan Zi glared at her disapprovingly, "Did you call Shuoshuo yet?"

"I did; he promised he’d come back."

Yan Zi gave a long sigh of relief, "As long as he’s coming back. Little Raindrop, when Rui’er comes back, you’ll have to take care of the kids yourself."

"Got it. No one in this family spoils a wife like Rui’er does. If I let Luowa hold Duoduo again, he’d definitely get mad at me." Little Raindrop laughed as she supported Yan Zi, guiding her indoors.

When Yi Luowa entered, Monica was speaking with everyone about something. Seeing her come in, the conversations stopped.

Yi Luowa greeted everyone with a smile and sat down, holding Duoduo.

Jacques was very well-behaved, sitting close to Luowa. Occasionally, he’d sneak a peek at her.

Monica sighed, raising his hand to beckon him over.

Jacques walked up, "Dad, I like Auntie."

What he meant was: I want to sit closer to Auntie.

Monica raised his hand and stroked his son’s head, "Dad wants to ask you—what do you want to be when you grow up?"

Jacques turned to glance at Yi Luowa and quietly said, "When I grow up, I want to marry Auntie."

Hahaha... The whole room erupted in laughter.

Embarrassed by the laughter, Jacques looked up at Monica, "Can’t I?"

Monica took his hand gently and explained patiently, "Of course not, because Auntie is your Fourth Uncle’s wife. You can’t marry her. What Dad meant to ask is what you want to be when you grow up—like a scientist or cartoonist, for example."

Jacques looked at him seriously, "Grandpa and Uncle said I should become the Thirteenth King of Soya."

Yi Luowa froze—Thirteenth King of Soya! Bernard was the Eleventh, and when John ascends, he’ll be the Twelfth. They plan for Jacques to inherit John’s throne.

"Do you want that?" Prince Charles asked quietly from the side.

Jacques nodded, "Grandpa and Uncle said it’s my responsibility."

Monica and Prince Charles exchanged a look. Prince Charles narrowed his eyes slightly, remaining silent for a long time.

Lady Jing Ya gestured for silence, and the hall instantly quieted.

After a while, Prince Charles opened his eyes, "Monica, it’s destiny. I think your father and brother already anticipated this outcome, which is why they brought it up beforehand—to better prepare Jacques."

"I’ve calculated it too, and I know this is the result, but I feel sorry for my brother and sister-in-law and can’t bear to part with Jacques. My brother and I are close in age—I understand how he endured. He practically didn’t have a childhood." Monica sighed, shaking his head.

"Your brother hasn’t officially acknowledged your sister-in-law yet because she’s a princess of a fallen kingdom. If Jacques is named as the successor, your brother can finally give her a proper status."

Prince Charles emphasized, patting Monica’s shoulder firmly, "Do you know why your brother hasn’t had children all these years?"

"It’s because my sister-in-law doesn’t want children. She said she didn’t want to create fear among the people. It’s not that my brother doesn’t want to give her a title; it’s that she doesn’t want it. She’s said before that, although her country was destroyed by my brother, she’s never hated him and doesn’t seek restoration. But if she had children, it might inevitably lead to speculation."

"Once Jacques is established as the next successor, all these issues can be resolved. For your brother’s deep love and your sister-in-law’s noble spirit, you should agree with them. Though I rarely return to Soya, whenever I see Lin En, I feel the child is deeply suffering. She doesn’t have a single blood relative left in the world."

Having said all that, Prince Charles slowly stood, "You should discuss this further with your in-laws and Little Raindrop. I’ll go to the garden to check on my flowers."

Long Che said in a deep voice, "Uncle, there’s nothing left to discuss. This matter is already irreversible. For everyone’s sake, Jacques must take on this responsibility."

Prince Charles smiled lightly, "I’m not avoiding anything; I truly just want to check on my flowers. Kids, who wants to join Grandpa in the garden?"

"I will!" First Bao ran over.

"We’ll go too!" Second Bao pulled Jacques along.

The three children followed Prince Charles out the door.

As soon as Prince Charles left, Yan Zi, who had been silent, sniffled, "If we agree, does it mean I won’t get to see Jacques often anymore?"

Tong Yao shook her head helplessly, "That’s for sure."

"I can’t bear to part with Jacques. Little Raindrop, what do you think?" Yan Zi looked at Little Raindrop.

Little Raindrop hugged Yan Zi’s shoulder for comfort, "Mom, Jacques may visit less often, but if you miss him, you can go to Soya to see him. As for making Jacques the successor, I feel it’s best to let nature take its course.

My sister-in-law didn’t enter the palace as early as I did. I’ve seen all the little details between her and my brother. To be honest, she’s truly suffered. First, she lost her father; a few years later, she lost her country. The root of all these tragedies was her father. It was my brother who forced her father to step down; her country was also destroyed by him. If it weren’t clear that she loves my brother deeply, who would believe that she wouldn’t retaliate?"

"Brother, you and my sister-in-law..." Yan Zi wanted to seek everyone’s opinion.

"Your grandson is yours; discuss it with Xiaotian." Long Che had already made his position clear earlier. He had no desire to repeat himself. Honestly, he also felt reluctant to part with Jacques, but for the sake of the bigger picture, he knew he must let go when necessary.

Mi Xiaotian held Yan Zi’s hand tightly, "Brother already said it’s irreversible. Stop asking."

Yan Zi slumped back into her seat, "I guess that’s it. If I miss the kids in the future, I’ll go to Soya to see them."

Little Raindrop turned to Monica, "Go and call Dad. Tell him no one here objects."

Monica slowly stood, walking heavily toward the study.

Yi Luowa kept playing with Duoduo, seemingly oblivious to the conversation. In reality, she hadn’t missed a word. Reflecting deeply, she thought, being born into such a family, none of them have control over their own fate. Thankfully, Jacques is still young. He’s accepting everything his destiny offers him while he’s still innocent. If he were older, he might resist.

"I think Ai Ni and the others must be back." Tong Yao’s sharp ears caught the sound of a car.

Long Che frowned and glanced outside the window, "Tell them to stop loitering! They hardly stay home for a day—why are they always out and about?!"

Yi Luowa gave Long Che a startled look and quickly dropped her gaze.

Tong Yao said displeased, "You’re wronging those two this time—they were taking their grandparents out to relax."

Long Che snorted, "Why not take Grandma and Grandpa along too?"

Lady Jing Ya laughed and shook her head, "The children did invite us, but your uncle wanted to see Jacques and Duoduo quickly, so we stayed back. This isn’t on them."

"Who’s annoyed Dad now?" The new arrival wasn’t Ai Ni, but Tong Airui, smiling even before he entered.

"Leaving work early, aren’t you afraid those old folks will complain to your boss at Mutada?" Long Che turned to look at his son.

Tong Airui grinned, "Have you ever stuck to proper hours these past years? The boss knows the deal—as long as our work gets done, they can go complain to no effect."

Long Che was about to scold him further when Second Bao ran inside, "Fourth Uncle, I have a secret to tell you."

"Alright, I’m listening." Tong Airui bent down patiently, waiting for Second Bao to finish, then lightly smacked his bottom, "Fetch him for me, so I can deal with him properly!"
