I can’t even get some alone time….
“Yan’er…” Twitching in the corner of his mouth, Di Cang wanted to say something but was silenced by the stare from his wife.
She’s eating me through and through…. Oh whatever, at least Xiachen has Ling Yan to distract him. Now he likely won’t come interrupt us in the middle of the night like he used to.
The city guards stationed around the wall was well used to keeping up an indifference appearance. After all, they are not crazy enough to laugh at their king. What they are surprised about was how easily their queen was able to control Di Cang. It’s just one glance, that’s all it took to make him shut up!
“Good.” Bai Yan then raises a hand to stroke her man’s chin like she’s lolling a puppy dog.
Normally anyone would find this insulting, the demon king was no pet that could be won over by a little scratch, yet this was exactly what works. Imagine a tail wagging in the background, that’s the perfect description for the image Di Cang was portraying!
“I’m tired, let’s go back and rest.” Shrugging her shoulder after noticing all the strange looks coming her way, Bai Yan drags her husband by the sleeve like she’s holding a leash.
Though a bit aggrieved in the face over his low standing in the family, Di Cang didn’t struggle and continued to speak while they walked: “If you don’t want to force the kids then why don’t we make a few more sisters to give him? With so many siblings for him to take care of, he won’t come bother us anymore.”
As the old saying goes, if one doesn’t work then make it two, if two doesn’t work then make it three. For Bai Xiachen who always come knocking at their door in the middle of the night, the boy’s a stalker that needs to be redirected. Imagine your bottom part was rearing to go and someone douses it with water at its peak, what man wouldn’t be angry?
“Okay.” Seeing how pitiful her hubby was acting, Bai Yan finally decides to give him some candy.
Besides, in her view, adding a few more children to their family was a good thing, she also likes that idea.
……
In the back garden of the palace.
Bai Xiachen had just finished running over to this area when he noticed the soft cuddly appearance of that peachy girl.
“Sister…” It’s then right as he’s about to call out to get the peachy girl’s attention, Di Ling Yan abruptly loses her balance and was about to fall into the pond!
This scared the daylights out of him. He wanted to save her. Without a second thought, the boy sprints for it before its too late. However, it was not needed because another figure had caught her right before the princess could touch the water.
For the baby girl herself, she was totally oblivious to the fact that she could’ve drowned there. In fact, Di Ling Yan was finding the experience very fun as she giggled and flailed her hands around in the air.
The critical situation was definitely averted, but that doesn’t mean Bai Xiachen was completely relieved. He’s still very much scared inside at what could’ve happened. First patting his chest to calm his beating heart, the boy slowly comes forward to meet the individual who beat him to the punch.
