Chapter 1306: Chapter 782: If I Get Married, Will You Come Back? (Part 4)

It’s obviously a henpecked husband.

Actually, before Xiao Jinxing came back, he told An Ning that grandchildren have their own blessings, and they shouldn’t interfere too much. The path is for them to choose.

She understood this principle too. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

But after all, they are her own children, so she naturally hopes they can do better.

She also pondered that with Anqi’s good character, it would naturally be better for her to be beside Luming.

The two grew up together and know each other well...

Perhaps she was a bit selfish.

She just hoped her children could become even closer in family ties.

So now seeing Anqi acting this simple, she felt a bit sorry for Luming.

But since the children have made their own choices, as their mother, she could only support them.

"Everyone has made their choices, so we should proceed as we discussed earlier. Let’s first let Gao Chaoyang and Xiao Jinyu dissolve their marriage, then Gao Chaoyang will return to Beiyuan Country with An Ji. Meanwhile, your father and I will bestow marriage upon Anqi and Jinyu."

"Thank you, Mother Empress." Anqi, in excitement, quickly kneeled on the ground.

"Thank you, Empress Dowager." An Ji also knelt on the ground.

"You may rise." An Ning said gently, "Qianyun, Prime Minister Song’s daughter, will have her birthday banquet in three days. Just now An Ji mentioned you are planning to attend. Since it’s not that urgent, let’s wait until after the banquet to proceed to avoid innocently affecting others."

"Yes."

Anqi and An Ji responded quickly.

"An Youyou, can you eat a little less!" An Ning finished the important matters and turned back to see An Youyou already had two plates of pastries alone.

An Youyou was still stuffing the lotus cake in her mouth and was startled by what her mother just said.

Was it wrong for her to eat?!

Clearly, her mother was not in a good mood, always believing that Anqi, the little plump duck, was ready to be caught, but unexpectedly, someone intercepted her. Feeling uneasy, she made An Youyou her outlet.

An Youyou struggled to swallow the pastry in her mouth, "I don’t gain weight from eating, unlike you, gaining weight just by eating a bit."

"When did I get fat?!" An Ning argued with her daughter, "My figure is perfect right now. Isn’t it, Xiao Jinxing?!"

"Yes." Xiao Jinxing agreed without hesitation.

At thirty-five, An Ning was apparently at the age where she was anxious about her age and figure.

She spends most of her time on maintenance and exercise every day.

Xiao Jinxing didn’t dare to offend An Ning.

Not even a little.

But undeniably, An Ning was indeed a tiny bit chubbier than before. It felt more comfortable to hug her now.

The joy of a middle-aged man is something the young people don’t understand.

"Humph." An Ning even teased An Youyou a little.

Sometimes An Youyou felt her mother was quite childish too.

Behind the childishness, there was definitely someone backing her up.

"No matter what, in Father’s eyes, you are the most beautiful." An Youyou was somewhat displeased, "How did you get so lucky to meet someone like my father, such an extraordinary man!"

"I was lucky to meet your mother." Xiao Jinxing stated bluntly.

An Youyou couldn’t help but chuckle, "Father’s survival instincts are still so strong."

"..." This little padded jacket seemed to have holes.

"It’s getting late. You should all go back and rest early." An Ning chose not to dwell on things with An Youyou and called the others.

"Yes."

Everyone got up and left.

"An Youyou, when you get back, if you dare eat sweets again, be careful, I’ll break your legs! Aren’t you afraid of getting diabetes!"

"..."

Her mother must be holding a grudge because her father gave her a few extra pieces of meat tonight!

The jealousy of women!

...

An Youyou, An Ji, and Xiao Anqi walked out of the sleeping palace, strolling in the Imperial Palace.

"An Ji." Anqi suddenly spoke.

"Princess." An Ji was respectful.

He was like this to everyone, polite and courteous.

"After you return to Beiyuan Country, will you come back to Daxuan Kingdom?" Anqi asked him.

An Ji pursed his lips.

An Youyou also pursed her lips.

An Ji said, "If there’s any major celebration in Daxuan Kingdom, I will most likely come."

"Although you entered the palace at the age of nine, we still grew up together. This is also your second home. In the future, if possible, I hope you can come back often."

"Sure." An Ji agreed without hesitation, "Actually, you can also come to Beiyuan Country to visit."

Anqi seemed excited, "If I have the opportunity, I will definitely come. Youyou, you will go too, right?!"

An Youyou hadn’t intended to speak up.

Now that Anqi called out to her like this, she had to comply, "Sure."

"By the way, isn’t An Ji about to get married? After you return, you will marry Chaoyang, right? When you get married, send us a message so we can come to your wedding banquet." Anqi said with some excitement.

An Youyou pursed her lips.

She really didn’t want to go.

But since the topic had come up, she would find an excuse to decline later on.

"If I get married, I will surely send you a message." An Ji agreed.

"It’s settled then." Anqi rarely went out.

She was naturally more excited about the idea of going to another country.

The three walked to the fork in the road.

Anqi headed towards her own palace.

An Youyou also walked towards her own palace.

"Princess Youyou." An Ji called out to her from behind.

An Youyou turned back, "What is it?"

"If I get married, will you come?" An Ji asked her.

"..." Do men always like to push their luck?

Was she crazy? Seeking abuse.

"I’ll come if I’m free." She rolled her eyes a hundred times inwardly, yet maintained a polite smile on her face.
