Chapter 217 - You’re Really Pretty (2/2)

Qiao Zhongbang smacked his lips and met his brother’s eyes. Now, he did not know whether he should move the fallen Wen Ruwan.

“I’ll go check on our daughter.” Wei Ziqin hastily left.

After Crown Prince Mo carried darling Qiao Mu back to her room, he naturally sat down next to the window with her.

He placed the child on his lap and stared at her expressionless little face.

She did not speak, so he kept her company silently.

After some unknown amount of time pa.s.sed, the child s.h.i.+fted. She lowered her head and said in low spirits, “You… why did you befriend me? I’m a cold, heartless, and capricious person.”

“Nonsense.” Crown Prince Mo reached out to hold her face. “Hey, look at me.”

The little stoic kept her face icy and glared at him for a moment, but her heart warmed.

Mo Lian quietly asked with a faint smile, “What do you see?”

“You’re really pretty. You are one of the best looking people I’ve ever seen,” the child answered seriously.

Mo Lian: …

Why did he feel both amused and exasperated?

‘Also, what’s up with the “one of”? Who’s the second and third? Is it Duan Yue?!’

He decided to hold her higher and leaned his forehead against her forehead. He quietly chuckled. “Not that. I’m asking whether you can see anything from my eyes.”

“Your eyes?” The stoic child nodded. “Prettier. They are better looking than Duan Yue’s.”

Mo Lian: …

Fine, he should be happy that he was very good looking in this little fellow’s eyes.

Huifeng, who was hidden in some covert place, could not resist holding his forehead. ‘How could His Highness the Crown Prince and the child’s conversation be so comical…’

[a]Just to confirm that this is the correct name since in previous chapters her name was listed as Wen Ruwan, so I changed it to that in this chapter. But if the name that was here was the right one, then I can go back and change it.
