Did that mean that the crown prince had been listening at the door all this time?

Thank you very much for being able to hear it!

Su Zhi rolled her eyes and ignored him. The little girl beside her stared at the marble in his hand, not daring to speak.

Lu Huan Zhi glanced at her and joked, ”Eh? After a few days of not seeing each other, the appearance of the small meat bun has changed a lot. ”

”This is Big Brother Liu's daughter. She is called Liu Lian, and her name is Qing Qing. She came to Aunt Bai's house to be a guest.”

”Hahaha, Durian? This stupid name is really interesting. ”

Su Zhi glared at him. There was nothing she could say to him as she walked forward, snatched the marble away and pulled Sister Qing into the house. She did not forget to lock the door behind her.

Lu Huan's face did not change at all, but she continued to smile leisurely. When her gaze turned towards the door of Su Zhi's room, her smile froze.

Not far away, a new house was under construction. Looking at the scale of the foundation, one could tell that it was the Shangguan family's mansion.

With a cold snort, he rode his horse and slowly left.

For the entire day, Su Zhi and Liu Yuan had been taking care of the three children playing together. They didn't say anything unnecessary to each other. It felt good to get along with each other. Although there was no passion to speak of, there was always warmth and serenity.

A Jin took good care of her two little sisters. The three children had never had a quarrel before, and their relationship was very harmonious.

Liu Yuan would steal glances at Su Zhi from time to time. He could not conceal the fondness in his eyes. He tried his best to remain calm, afraid that his hot-bloodedness would scare her.

In his generation, his father only felt the need to study, so he sent him to school for a few days and barely passed the examinations. Even so, he still couldn't change his origin as a farmer.

He had always disliked sour scholars who wrote poetry and pretended to be reserved. If he liked someone, he should have shown off and let her know.

However, when Liu Yuan met someone who was interested in his own business, he became cautious and began to think about other people's business. It seemed that luck was playing with people.

He shook his head and smiled bitterly to himself, looking at Su Zhi with eyes full of love and adoration.

Sensing Liu Yuan's gaze, Su Zhi pretended not to know and looked at the three children lovingly.

It wasn't that she couldn't tell how good a man was. Perhaps Aunt Bai was right, but marriage was something that lasted a lifetime. Even if she wasn't a child, she still had to consider whether or not she really liked this man in front of her.

If you truly want to love, then you can do it. If you truly want to love, then you can't leave.

Through the whole day, although the two of them did not communicate much, Su Zhi was not as conflicted as she had feared before. She got along very easily with Liu Yuan, he was funny and humorous, he did not put on airs, he made a ruckus with the children, he laughed without restraint, regardless of his image, A Jin was no longer afraid of him, the children's faces were brimming with joy.

Autumn was approaching, and night was approaching quickly. After a day of laughing, the two children were tired as well.

Su Zhi bid farewell to Aunt Bai and went back to her room to rest with A Jin and Soybean Pouch.

Before she went to bed, A Jin who was lying on the bed suddenly grabbed Su Zhi's hand. Her small face no longer had a playful smile. ”Mother, do you like Uncle Liu?”

Su Zhi could not help but laugh. ”Why would A Jin ask this?”

How old is this child? I'm afraid he doesn't even understand the meaning of the word 'like'.

A Jin stubbornly asked, ”Does mom like it?”

Su Zhi sighed, kissed the child on the forehead, and replied affectionately, ”Mother only loves A Jin and Little Dou Bao.”

Hearing this, A Jin's bright eyes were filled with emotions. He held Su Zhi's hand and solemnly said, ”A Jin is willing for Uncle Liu to marry mother.”

”Then, does A Jin like Uncle Liu?”

A Jin slightly frowned, thinking carefully for a while, then nodded and shook his head.

”If you really want to choose someone to be your father, A Jin loves Uncle Xiao the most.”

Su Zhi was startled. She had not expected Xiao Qian to have such a high position in the hearts of the two children. Needless to say, even A Jin liked him so much.

However, she could not do such a thing. Although Xiao Qian had come to find her drunk that day to express his love and admiration, Su Zhi felt that he had done such a foolish thing because he was drunk.

Even if he really did want to, he was a powerful general, and he was just a widow without a director.

She did not dare to think, nor did she dare to hope.
