Lady stood up, looking at Susu climbing onto the white tiger before leaving; a smile curled on her lips, "Leaving the palace is better. If something happens, it’s harder to investigate."

Susu returned to the Hehuan Hall, and upon seeing Chu Lingfeng, she ran into his arms, "Little Gugu, Little Gugu."

It was the first time Chu Lingfeng had seen Susu so anxious; her forehead was even covered with a fine sweat, "What’s wrong, Susu?"

Susu grabbed Chu Lingfeng’s hand and walked towards the corner of the wall, "We leave palace, find mommy."

Chu Lingfeng had been in the Hehuan Hall for so long, he understood the meaning of "mommy." But leaving the palace, how did she know about that?

"Susu, we can’t leave the palace right now."

Susu was so anxious she was about to cry, "I want to leave palace, find mommy."

Seeing Susu cry made Chu Lingfeng panic immediately. He took a handkerchief out of his embrace and while wiping the tears from the corners of Susu’s eyes, he said, "The Crown Princess went to find the Crown Prince. She’ll be back soon. Shall we wait for them here, alright?"

The normally obedient Susu threw her first tantrum, "I don’t want to, I find mommy."

Chu Lingfeng was only ten years old. How could he take Susu out of the palace?

But seeing Susu cry out for her mommy made him feel anxious.

Chun Xi heard the crying and ran out. Seeing Susu cry made her think Susu had been wronged. She rushed up to Susu, took her into her arms, and while soothing her, asked, "Susu, who bullied you?"

Chu Lingfeng said, "Susu wants to leave the palace to find the Crown Princess."

Hearing this, Chun Xi continued to soothe Susu, who was still crying, "Susu, be good. The Crown Princess will be back soon. I’ll get you a lollipop, okay?"

The still crying Susu stopped when she heard the word lollipop. She held up two little fingers, her voice milky, "I want this many lollipops."

Chun Xi couldn’t help but laugh, "Okay, eat two lollipops."

The way to make lollipops was taught to her by the Crown Princess, but the lollipops given to Susu contained more milk and less sugar, in order to prevent her from eating too many and damaging her teeth.

After Chun Xi gave Susu two lollipops, Susu held one in each hand and sat obediently eating them.

Chu Lingfeng saw Susu eating lollipops, tears still hanging on her eyelashes, looking extremely cute.

Chun Xi sighed, wondering when her Master would return. How long had it been?

Susu fell asleep after finishing her lollipops, still clutching one in her hand. She said she would save it for mommy "this" time.

Chun Xi’s heart melted upon hearing this. How could Susu be so cute and sensible?

Masters, please come back soon. It’s not just Susu who misses mommy; she misses her Master too.

Chun Xi thought Susu would forget about wanting to go find her Master after a night’s sleep. But as soon as she woke up, she clung to her nanny’s neck, murmuring with a milky voice.

"I find mommy, leave palace find mommy."

Chun Xi had no choice but to pull out her trump card, "Susu, shall we eat breakfast first? There are meat buns, fried dough sticks, shrimp dumplings..."

Upon hearing this, Susu nearly drooled, raising two little fingers, "I want this many..." After a moment’s thought, she tried to raise three fingers, "This many, to be full and strong, find mommy."

Chun Xi couldn’t help but laugh while also feeling a bit heartbroken, "Alright, Susu, eat until you’re full, then you’ll have the strength."

The dining table was filled with dishes and millet porridge.

The first thing Susu did after sitting down was pick up a meat bun and turn her head towards Dabai at the side of her chair, "Huhu, this bun."

Every morning, Dabai was waiting for this moment. It lifted its head and opened its mouth, waiting for Susu to feed it.

Susu, delighted, threw the meat bun into Dabai’s mouth. After watching Dabai eat it, she took a meat bun to her mouth and bit into it.

This scene occurred every morning at breakfast time; Taotao and Chu Ling were used to it.

At mealtime, Susu fully inherited Feng Wuyou’s good traits. She never needed coaxing and would eat obediently, and quite a lot.

After breakfast, Susu stuffed meat buns into her little bag. As she did, she mumbled in her milky voice, "Gugu, I go find mommy now."

Perhaps Taotao hadn’t seen her father and mother for a long time, but hearing Chun Xi talk about it every day, and now hearing her sister say she wanted to find their mother, she showed an excited expression.

"Where do we find mommy?"

"Outside palace." Susu packed three meat buns until her little bag could fit no more. She patted the bag and then gracefully climbed off the chair.

Hearing this, Taotao also climbed down from her chair nimbly, ran to her sister’s side, and held her hand, "I go with sister, find mommy."
