Unlimited estates for rural beauty-Chapter 501 Danger, He Runs Away (3)

Feng Xi looked at the little Yueyue, who was now over two years old, a carbon copy of Feng Xuxu. Following Yueyue’s hand, his gaze shifted to the little boy on the Emperor’s other leg, who had inherited the Emperor’s handsome features completely. The whole family was truly a gathering of Feng dragons among men.

"Yueyue, do you miss your uncle?" A somewhat hoarse voice softly spoke, quieter than the usual loud tone.

Yueyue nodded vigorously: "Yes, I miss you very much."

"And does Qiqi miss his uncle?" He turned and looked at the handsome young boy not far away.

Qiqi smiled shyly, climbed down from Daddy’s thigh, and also sat on his uncle’s thigh, imitating his sister’s nod: "Qiqi misses you."

Feng Xi’s eyes crinkled into slits, his big white teeth showing: "Hahaha, in a while, uncle will go into the mountains to find some game for you, and make you a delicious dinner tonight."

"Really! Uncle, I want to go with you!"

"I want to go, too."

The two little ones looked up at Feng Xi with bright, hopeful eyes.

"This... I’m afraid that won’t do. There are many wild beasts in the mountains. How about I catch a few rabbits for you to play with instead?" Feng Xi was in a dilemma; one child was the Crown Prince and the other a Princess. If something happened to them here, the whole Feng Family Village wouldn’t be enough to bear the responsibility.

Yueyue pouted in disappointment. She had long since grown out of playing with rabbits—those dull, stupid creatures that she could easily trap by herself with a sprinkle of some medicine. Qiqi seemed a bit disappointed too, turning his eyes to look at Mom. Seeing her face relax slightly, he reached out to nudge his sister, winked at her, and Yueyue cleverly climbed off her uncle’s leg, changed her course, and headed straight for her mother, her voice sticky sweet: "Mommy~, I also want to follow uncle into the mountains. Please let me go with brother; I promise I won’t run off, really." As if afraid Mom wouldn’t believe her, she even symbolically extended her little hand. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

Qiqi also nodded vigorously on his uncle’s thigh, earnestly said to Mom: "Mom, I will definitely take good care of my sister and not let her run around."

Yueyue rolled her eyes secretly—’As if he could take care of me, the little brat.’ But the clever Yueyue didn’t expose her brother, instead playing along with him: "I will definitely listen to brother and not run around."

Dugu Chen watched with a restrained smile as from his angle he could clearly see his sister’s contemptuous pout, yet she still went along with her brother. Qiqi, on the other hand, seemed to completely detach himself, almost as if he were the adult ’taking care of’ his sister. Watching the two of them being so adorably cunning lifted his spirits greatly, distracting him from thoughts of Zhang Feng.

Feng Xuxu furrowed her brows in thought, just about to agree, when Yueyue’s voice reached her: "Mommy~, I still have Wan Hun by my side. If there’s danger, he’ll step in, and I’ll make a run for it."

Wan Hun, hidden in the shadows, almost stumbled, while Wan Hun held back his laughter with a pained expression. Wan Hun glanced coldly at his brother, then looking down, he was stuck between laughter and tears. Little Princess Yueyue’s hands were behind her back, swinging back and forth, as if signalling, ’Those words are just to deceive Mom, they don’t count.’

Dugu Chen’s cup of water shook three times, Feng Xuxu, watching Yueyue’s small actions, was caught between laughter and tears, Qiqi’s little shoulders shrugging up and down, his little face turning red as he tried not to laugh. Feng Xi, surprised, looked at Yueyue and felt a tremendous shock in his heart—how could such a small child be this clever?

Mei Lenglei covered his lips with a handkerchief, trying to hold back his laughter, his eyes brimming with tears he was trying to keep from falling.

"You would just leave your guard behind and run away by yourself?"

Yueyue stuck out her tongue: "Not at all. I’m testing his abilities."
