After a while, the little one fell asleep.

Xiao Jinyan saw his daughter sleeping, so he picked her up and placed her inside.

Shen Chuwei looked at Xiao Jinyan’s actions with confusion. "What are you doing?"

After tucking in his daughter, Xiao Jinyan turned around, pulled Shen Chuwei into his embrace, and began fumbling with her sash as he whispered in her ear, "Let’s continue what we were doing earlier."

"But Susu is here," Shen Chuwei glanced at her daughter, terrified she might suddenly wake up.

"Our daughter is sleeping." Xiao Jinyan’s hand caressed Little Nine’s cheek, turned her face toward him, and he bent down to kiss her.

Shen Chuwei wrapped her arms around Xiao Jinyan’s neck, responding and moving in sync with him.

"Father, baby wants a kiss too."

The sudden tender voice made them freeze and turn to look at the bed, where they saw their daughter watching them with open eyes.

They looked at each other and were instantly overwhelmed with embarrassment.

Susu crawled out of her blankets, stumbled a couple of steps toward them, and smacked a kiss on Xiao Jinyan’s face.

"Father, good night."

Shen Chuwei often said goodnight and good morning to Susu, who picked it up quickly.

Then Susu gave Shen Chuwei a peck on the cheek and said, "Mommy, good night."

After doing all this, Susu went back under her blankets, covered herself up, patted her chest with a little hand, and closed her eyes to sleep.

Her sensible and adorable behavior was truly endearing.

Xiao Jinyan moved his gaze away from the sensible scene, looked at the flushed person in his arms, and hoarsely said, "Let’s continue."

Shen Chuwei nervously glanced at her daughter, "What if she wakes up again?"

"I’ll be more gentle," Xiao Jinyan said and moved to kiss her.

In the end, Shen Chuwei mustered the last bit of her strength to criticize, a man’s words can truly not be trusted!

This was because Xiao Jinyan had carried her off the bed and straight to the concubine’s couch～

The next day, Shen Chuwei was sleeping deeply, wrapped in the comforter, when she suddenly felt a choking sensation. Just as she felt like she was about to suffocate, she abruptly opened her eyes to see Susu seriously pinching her nose.

Of course, one would struggle to breathe if their nose was being pinched.

"Susu, what are you doing?"

When Susu saw her mother awake, she happily grabbed her hand, "Mommy, time to eat."

Shen Chuwei replied weakly, "Darling, do you know what time your mother went to sleep last night?"

Susu tilted her little head and looked at her mother with confusion, then shook her head.

"Last night, your father was really annoying..." Shen Chuwei took a while to find the right word to describe how Xiao Jinyan lost control last night and acted on his desires～

Susu, with her bright sparkling eyes, looked at her mother full of questions.

Shen Chuwei looked at her daughter’s innocent little face and thought to herself, why am I even telling these things to my daughter who wouldn’t understand?

Chun Xi entered at this moment and seeing Susu, cheerfully said, "The little master kept saying the master hasn’t had breakfast yet. After finishing her own breakfast, she couldn’t wait to come and call the master for breakfast."

Shen Chuwei looked at her daughter, truly a caring little cotton-padded jacket, which was perfect if only she would not interrupt her and Xiao Jinyan’s intimate moments by jumping on the bed.

"But I really am hungry." In fact, she was hungry last night, but she was too exhausted and went straight to sleep. Otherwise, no matter what, she would have filled her stomach before sleeping.

"This servant will assist the master in changing and washing up," Chun Xi said with a smile, bringing over some clothes.

Seeing her mother getting up, Susu toddled off.

Little Bai followed without a word.

Ever since Taotao began frequenting the study room and damaging many valuable paintings, Xiao Jinyan prepared a small study room for his son and had Song Qing teach Taotao how to recognize and write characters.

Susu arrived at her brother’s little study room, leaned against the doorframe, and looked inside, "Gugu."

Taotao, hearing his sister call him, lifted his head to look at the doorway. Seeing his sister leaning on the doorframe, he put down his pen, got up, and walked over.

A little over a year old, Taotao’s speaking and comprehending abilities weren’t much better than Susu’s.

First thing he did when he arrived was to take his sister’s hand and lead her into the study room.

Song Qing looked at the siblings with genuine affection, they were understanding and smart.

After breakfast, Shen Chuwei continued packing things up.

At this moment, Lady Xu, the concubine, arrived, swaying a small handkerchief. Unlike her usual cheerfulness, she appeared more worried.

"Crown Princess, I am going to leave the palace."

"So soon?" Shen Chuwei was somewhat surprised. She knew that Lady Xu was to leave the palace, but when the day actually came, she still felt reluctant to let go.

"Your Highness is also leaving the palace to lead troops into battle."

"My mother wants me to leave the palace sooner, saying it’s not good to stay in the palace for too long.

She wants me to return home and find a suitable man to marry soon," Lady Xu said, propping her chin with her hands.

The benefit of leaving the palace is to be with her family every day, but she is reluctant to leave the palace.

Moreover, she fears Jun Wuxian will come back and not know she has gone back to the General Residence.

Shen Chuwei stared at Lady Xu for a good while. The latter used to be a meaty beauty, but in the past six months, she had almost turned into a skinny beauty.

"I’ve noticed you’ve lost a lot of weight lately."

"Have I?" Lady Xu touched her face. She used to pay attention to her weight, but she stopped noticing after a while.

Shen Chuwei felt like getting a scale to weigh her.

"You’ve lost a whole circle of weight."

Lady Xu sighed, "What’s the use of losing weight if there’s no one to see it?"

Shen Chuwei probed further, "Whom do you want to see it?"

"Of course, it’s..." Lady Xu almost blurted out Jun Wuxian. It had been almost half a year since she last saw him, and he probably had forgotten about her.

Seeing Lady Xu hold back her words, Shen Chuwei guessed, "Is it the man in black?"

Lady Xu nodded, "I haven’t seen him for almost half a year."

Shen Chuwei asked with curiosity, "Doesn’t he come and go freely in the Imperial Palace? Why doesn’t he come to see you?"

"He went to find his sister. He said that maybe he would come to see me once he finds her."

"What if I get married by then?"

In the end, Lady Xu’s voice was so faint, it was more like she was talking to herself.
