Outside the Crystal Palace, Donghuang Ziyou was about to step in when she suddenly stopped.
Because she heard a familiar voice.
“Because no one knows a daughter better than her father.”
“You’re Daddy’s angel. I’ve already engraved you in my heart.”
Donghuang Ziyou’s beautiful eyes couldn’t help but tremble slightly as she carefully recalled Lin Xuan’s words.
Angel…
Engraved in his heart…
She didn’t expect this man to say such moving words!
Was his mouth covered in honey?
Donghuang Ziyou thought to herself, “Fortunately, Lin Xuan was showering his affection on his daughters.”
Otherwise, with his insufferably handsome appearance, if he used such a sweet-talking ability on other girls, all the girls in the world would probably be head over heels for him!
She took a deep breath.
Even as the empress, her heart was as hard as a rock when she was aloof.
Donghuang Ziyou calmed down for a long time before calming down from Lin Xuan’s words.
“Wow, Mother is here!”
“That’s great!”
When the little girls saw Donghuang Ziyou enter, they hurriedly ran up and pulled her back.
“Mother, come here quickly!”
Seeing how anxious they were, Donghuang Ziyou couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Babies, why are you so anxious?”
Xuan Zhu said, “Of course it’s because there’s something very important!”
Donghuang Ziyou smiled helplessly and could only follow them to Lin Xuan.
Xuan Xi hurriedly asked, “Father, have you engraved Mother in your heart?”
Xuan Zhu, Xuan Han, and Xuan You revealed curious expressions.
The little girls felt that since their father and mother were so good, their father must have engraved their mother in his heart.
However, it was best to let their father say this in person so that they could be at ease.
Because they felt that only when a family engraved each other in their hearts could such a family be happy and blissful.
Lin Xuan coughed awkwardly and wanted to avoid this question.
All adults knew what it meant to engrave a person into your heart.
However, when he saw the four little girls looking at him eagerly, he knew that he had to give an answer.
In the end, this was his daughters’ most primitive emotional need.
Just like all the children in the world.
To them, no matter how good the material conditions were, they weren’t as important as a healthy and complete family.
And the love between parents was the true source of their sense of security.
Although the children didn’t know what it meant to engrave a person into their hearts,
However, Lin Xuan knew that only if he nodded would they feel satisfied with this family.
For the sake of these four precious daughters, Lin Xuan nodded without blushing. “Yes!”
Donghuang Ziyou’s fair face flushed red when she heard that.
Although she had never really experienced romance, she had read many books and had read countless love novels!
Therefore, Lin Xuan’s words were equivalent to a confession!
Even though Donghuang Ziyou was used to being cold, her heart still stirred when she heard this.
While she was in a daze, she felt a small hand pulling her.
She looked down and saw that it was Xuan You who was holding her hand. Xuan You looked up at her eagerly.
“Then, Mother, have you engraved Father in your heart?”
Looking at her daughter’s expectant gaze, Donghuang Ziyou could only grit her teeth and nod. “Yes!”
After she finished speaking, she and Lin Xuan couldn’t help but look at each other.
The two of them actually confessed to each other under their daughters’ request!
The little girls were extremely excited.
“Yay!”
“I’m relieved now!”
“That’s right. Last time, Brother Haoyu said that his parents sometimes said things like ‘you’ve always been in my heart’. I was envious of him! Now, my father and mother said the same thing!”
“Yes, yes, yes. The next time I see him, I’ll tell him what Daddy and Mommy said!”
…
Hearing this, Lin Xuan and Donghuang Ziyou couldn’t help but shake their heads and smile.
It turned out that the reason the little girls were so concerned about this was because Donghuang Haoyu had leaked his parents’ sweet nothings.
These brats were really mischievous to pay attention to such a thing so early!
Fortunately, Lin Xuan had seen too many such things in his previous life and quickly forgot about the embarrassment just now.
As an emperess, Donghuang Ziyou’s self-control was extraordinarily powerful, and she quickly calmed down.
The two of them then played with the children.
Then, at Xuan Zhu and the others’ request, Donghuang Ziyou agreed to eat dinner with them.
As a homemaker who doted on his daughters, the dishes Lin Xuan prepared for Xuan Zhu and the others weren’t too sumptuous.
At a glance, the table was filled with dishes. They were really delicious and whetted one’s appetite.
After dinner, the four little girls hurriedly raised their spoons and scooped a spoonful of soup from the same jade bowl.
Then, the little girls poured all their soup into Donghuang Ziyou’s bowl.
“Yes, yes. This soup is very good!”
Donghuang Ziyou was amused by the little girls’ filial piety. She smiled and said, “Why do you all want Mother to drink this soup?”
Xuan Zhu touched her face and said, “Because Father said that this soup can protect our skin!”
Xuan Han nodded. “That’s right. Mother is a girl too. You should make your skin look better!”
Lin Xuan saw the little girls’ eager expressions, so he added,
“This soup is called Ice Flower Stew with Immortal Snow Toad. It helps children maintain their skin.”
Donghuang Ziyou nodded.
She knew that children’s skin was very delicate and needed careful care.
She couldn’t help but observe Xuan Zhu and the others’ skin carefully.
She discovered that not only were their faces extremely fair, but they also flickered with a faint white glow.
It was really smooth and tender to the extreme!
Although the little girls’ skin was quite good in the past, their current appearance was drop dead gorgeous.
“It seems like this soup is indeed very good.”
Then, she picked up the bowl and elegantly finished the soup her daughters had given her.
“Mother, it’s delicious, right?” The little girls hurriedly asked.
“Yes.” Donghuang Ziyou smiled sweetly.
“Heehee, that’s good!”
“We can eat too!”
Only then did the little girls eat excitedly.
Seeing how filial they were and how perfect Lin Xuan’s culinary skills were,
Donghuang Ziyou couldn’t help but sigh slightly. Such a life was really pleasurable!
Just as the little girls were eating, the Heavenly Dog Beast ran to the table in front of Xuan You and looked up at her with a fawning expression.
Xuan You was very unhappy when she saw it.
Ever since the Heavenly Dog Beast stole Xuan You’s socks, Xuan You felt that she no longer had the dignity of an older sister.
So from then on, she decided to ignore the Heavenly Dog Beast for the next few days.
Boohoo ~
The Heavenly Dog Beast went forward to rub against Xuan You’s feet.
“Hey, you have to be polite as a dog. Don’t disturb me from eating!”
Xuan You kicked the Heavenly Dog Beast away.
“Ah!”
However, the little girl used too much strength and accidentally kicked her ankle onto the table leg.
“It hurts!”
The little girl hurriedly put down her spoon and frowned as she pouted and rubbed her ankle.
“Daddy will take a look for you!”
“Where does it hurt? I’ll check it for you!”
Lin Xuan and Donghuang Ziyou put down their chopsticks at the same time and bent down to help Xuan You.
As the two of them were sitting on Xuan You’s left and right, they accidentally pressed their foreheads together.
Lin Xuan and Donghuang Ziyou were speechless.
