Chapter 201
The little boy who was basking under the halo had innocent eyes. When he laughed, he had a small dimple form beside his lips, just like his sister. He may not ever be as clever and intelligent as a normal child, but he was not as annoying as he initially thought of.
And he could recite the 9×9 multiplication table!
Emperor Lin stood silently by the door, listening to him stumbling and stuttering to recite the remaining parts of the 9×9 multiplication table. When he finished, he told the Little Fifth Princess excitedly,”I’m done!”
Lin Feilu stretched out her hand to touch his head, “Brother is awesome! Then these little rabbits are all yours.”
Lin Zhanyuan clapped his hands happily. When he got up and ran to pick up the grass rabbit, he suddenly realised that a stranger was standing at the door not far away. He had always been afraid of strangers, so he immediately dropped his head and ran behind Xiao Lan nervously. While hiding behind her, he carefully poked out half of his head to look over.
It was exactly the same as the Little Fifth Princess’s expression when she became frightened.
Indeed, they are most definitely siblings.
Xiao Lan found out that there was someone at the door. She looked up and her expression was originally sluggish, but she quickly reacted and immediately got up to give her greetings, “This Honourable Lady greets the Emperor. I wasn’t aware of your presence, so please excuse this Lady for not greeting you earlier.”
Lin Feilu ran over happily, shouting ‘Father Emperor’.
Emperor Lin laughed. When she ran closer, he leaned over to pick her up, and then walked together with her towards the courtyard. When he walked to Xiao Lan, he smelled the faint fragrance of her body that had the same scent with the sachet he had gotten from the Crown Prince.
Emperor Lin held his daughter in one hand and offered a hand to support with the other hand, “Rise.”
Xiao Lan bowed again before getting up while Lin Zhanyuan still tugged on the corner of her clothes and hid behind her. Xiao Lan pursed her lower lip and said softly, “Yuan Er, greet your Father Emperor.”
Lin Zhanyuan took a peek at the strange man, then looked at his sister in his arms.
Lin Feilu silently said to him, ‘Daddy’.
Lin Zhanyuan understood at once— this was a game that his sister often played with him!
As long as she mouthed the two words without saying them out loud, he should give his greetings according to the movements she had taught him and say…
Emperor Lin saw the formerly scared little boy slowly walking out from behind Xiao Lan. He bowed to him and said in a childish voice,” This Prince greets Father Emperor.”
Emperor Lin raised an eyebrow in surprise.
Not only could this son of his recited his 9×9 multiplication form, but he was also capable of greetings. He doesn’t seem crazy nor stupid as he appeared rather obedient.
It was very easy to be satisfied when one anticipated the worst result for something. When you finally find that the outcome was not as bad as you thought, the sense of satisfaction would be immense.
His tone was fairly gentle as he spoke, “Rise.”
However, the Emperor, who had been standing for a long time, bore an aura that radiated power. Lin Zhanyuan was very sensitive to the aura of other people, so when he got up, he hid in fear once again.
Emperor Lin looked at Xiao Lan, and then at his son who gazed at him curiously. Looking back at how he was back then, he was overwhelmed with emotion for a while. Lin Feilu put her arms around his neck and asked sweetly, “Father Emperor, why did you come here? Did you miss me so much that you made a special trip just to see me?”
