Chapter 563 - The Deep Love of Mother (1/2)
Though the little boy did not show her any respect along the way, he did not do anything out of line either.
Nevertheless, Lin Mengya had gotten to know the boy well.
Considering the environment he had grown up in, it was natural for him to be so arrogant, introverted, and eccentric.
Therefore, Lin Mengya only treated him as a child who was stroppy.
It was just that Zhu Yun had once told her to teach Zhu Yan well. This child was very smart, decisive, and different from ordinary children.
Looking at Zhu Yan, Lin Mengya somehow thought of Lin Zhongyu.
That boy used to be cold-hearted as well, but in the end, he learned to be gentle and forbearing.
He was quiet and aloof, while Zhu Yan was outgoing and hot-tempered. Both of them were very unruly and unyielding.
Children like them were destined to be extraordinary, but at the same time, they needed careful guidance.
“I’m not your servant!”
Zhu Yan had a cold look in his eyes, but it could barely hide his nervousness.
Though he had grown up in a place like Huichun House, he had always been by the side of the owner of the house, so he was used to browbeating others with the owner’s influence.
Now, he had come to a totally strange place, and as a young boy, it was natural for him to feel uneasy.
However, the people in Lin Mengya’s yard, though in a large number, didn’t show any hostility toward him.
They just looked at him curiously. Zhu Yan, however, was at a loss as to what to do in such a friendly and stable environment.
Lin Mengya only felt that Zhu Yan was like a little bluffing kitten at the moment.
She hid the amusement in her eyes, afraid that it would piss Zhu Yan off and make him antagonistic.
“Of course, you’re my guest. But your master said you should follow my order after you came here. I just have some girls in my yard, so how about you help me take care of my two pets?”
Zhu Yan’s expression changed slightly. He secretly shifted his gaze to the two pets who were lying on the ground and playing cute by Lin Mengya’s feet.
Though Snow and the baby tiger were raised in the mansion, they were still very wild.
The haughtiness in their eyes showed that they were unwilling to bow down to the young boy. Zhu Yan’s interest was instantly piqued.
He took a few steps forward, but before he could get close to the two pets, Snow stood up. As a wolf king, its aura was majestic and superior as ever.
To everyone’s surprise, after scornfully glancing at Zhu Yan, Snow walked away holding its head high with the baby tiger.
When they passed by Zhu Yan, they didn’t even spare a single glance for him as if it were not them who had been lying by Lin Mengya’s feet and playing cute.
Zhu Yan stared at the wolf and the tiger, his face filled with amazement.
“Haha—”
Xiu was the first one present who burst out laughing.
Though at a similar age, they were incompatible with each other like water and fire, and would never submit to each other.
Whenever they met, there would always be a quarrel.
Though Lin Mengya told her not to, Xiu still seized every chance to mock Zhu Yan harshly.
“You—humph, I’ll make them follow my lead!”
Zhu Yan was such a proud boy that he could not put up with Xiu’s mockery.
His face flushed with anger. After giving Xiu a fierce look, he chased after the two pets out of the door.
After everything was arranged, Lin Mengya picked up the cup and covered the smile around her mouth corner.
It seemed to her that it would not be quiet in the mansion in the future.
Since she returned to the mansion, the people in the Liuxin Courtyard had been busy.
In addition to the stuff she brought back with her from the Nation of Lintian, Cousin Chen and Cousin Yu also gave her many treasures, afraid that she would be aggrieved after going back to the mansion.
As a result, her storehouse, which had been packed, was filled to the brim now.
However, Lin Mengya had always been generous. This time, all the servants in Prince Yu’s Mansion, no matter which house or courtyard they were from, had been rewarded with a generous gift.
Since Baiji and Baishao were in charge of all these things, Lin Mengya only needed to make some decisions on important matters.
“Miss, you’ve been there for such a long time. Have you met any Madam’s old acquaintances?”
