Chapter 1728 - 1730: Back to the Palace Again
"You can, huh? When did you go buy it?"
"I picked it out a long time ago; I went to get it back in the morning while you were sleeping."
"Not bad, these are two nice things." Yang Chuxia laughed and patted his shoulder, "Your standing in the hearts of our two boys has completely surpassed mine."
"No one can ever surpass your place in my heart, my dear." Detecting a slight hint of jealousy, Ye Zi’an immediately turned around and embraced her with a chuckle.
"Shoo, shoo, stop with the sweet talk. People might think I’m jealous of you."
"Aren’t you?" Ye Zi’an raised an eyebrow and asked.
"You’re such a silly head." Yang Chuxia playfully bit his chin, "You are me, and I am you. If I’m jealous of myself, wouldn’t I be foolish?"
"Haha..." Ye Zi’an laughed softly and murmured, "This is the most beautiful love talk in the world; you are in me, and I am in you, we are one."
Yang Chuxia wrapped her arms around his neck, pulling his head down a bit. Seeing her actions, Ye Zi’an cooperatively closed his eyes.
However, just then, "Ahem... ahem..." an untimely coughing sound interrupted.
Unable to kiss him, Yang Chuxia was visibly displeased, turning her head to see the culprits, only to find Mu Shaoling and his son leaning against the door, both watching them.
Mu Shaoling’s eyes were full of mischief.
Chengcheng’s eyes were filled with confusion.
Mu Shaoling clicked his tongue, "Tsk, tsk, we came at the wrong time, didn’t we?"
"Since you know, why don’t you just turn around and leave?" Ye Zi’an said with slight irritation, "Looks like I’ll have to visit the Mu Residence more often so you can experience moments like this."
"Pfft... how ambitious..." Mu Shaoling shook his head, and then addressed the bewildered Chengcheng at his feet, "Don’t learn from your uncle. If you’re being affectionate, make sure to check the location first to avoid constantly being caught. It’s not good for your reputation, okay, little one?"
"Chengcheng, ignore him. Come, Auntie will take you to find Brother Yangyang." Yang Chuxia, realizing Mu Shaoling must have some business visiting at this hour, stepped forward to pick up Chengcheng.
"Okay, let’s find Brother Yangyang."
"Oh, little Chengcheng, Brother, I also care for you dearly. Why do you only look for Yangyang and not me?" As soon as Yang Chuxia stepped out of the room, she encountered the children approaching together. Lele, in a good mood today, teased Chengcheng lightly.
But Chengcheng was even cooler, looking at him with just a glance, stretching his hand towards Yangyang, "Brother."
"Come down, Brother will play with you." Yangyang beckoned him with a wave.
Seeing Yangyang beckon, Chengcheng immediately struggled out of Yang Chuxia’s arms and leapt into Yangyang’s embrace. Although his face showed no emotion, his warmth was evident.
"Hey, this little rascal..." Lele was speechless; the preferential treatment was too obvious.
"He saved his life; it’s normal for them to have a closer bond. Don’t be too envious." Yang Chuxia noticed and patted Lele’s shoulder.
Lele: "..."
"I went to the palace again today." After Yang Chuxia and Chengcheng left, Mu Shaoling spoke to Ye Zi’an, "But I noticed something. It seems there are always people from Prince Le around the Emperor. The day before yesterday, Prince Le himself was there, but today Prince Le wasn’t there, instead, there were two strangers dressed as eunuchs following the Emperor, making it impossible for me to take his pulse. You know, this pulse-check has to be done privately. If I openly say I’m checking his pulse, it will definitely arouse his suspicion."
"No need for the check; the Emperor is poisoned, too."
