"Brother Xiaojin?" Liu Xiaoli called out again. This time, Xiaoli moved closer to his and his black fan-like eyelashes fluttered on his eyelids.

Rong Jindong could even feel the eyelashes scratching her own face.

Seeing the small exquisite face in front of him, and seeing the joy and jubilation on Xiaoli's face, Rong Jindong frowned.

Xiaoli could clearly feel that when Brother Xiaojin saw him, there was no surprise, no happiness, not even one bit.

Brother Xiaojin didn't want to see him?

was at a loss as to what to do due to this.

Moving his body out of Rong Jindong's embrace, Xiaoli looked at him blankly, then said: "I, I've come to see you."

A gentle smile appeared on Rong Jindong's face as she said to him, "Thank you."

As for the old wet nurse who had been accompanying Rong Jindong the entire time, when he saw this scene, he secretly laughed to himself in his heart, a look of satisfaction on his face.

Rong Jindong thought like that, and Liu Wei who followed him out also thought the same.

Liu Wei walked over.

Seeing Liu Wei coming over, the old granny bowed to greet a guest.

Liu Wei glanced at the old lady, and said, "You may leave first."

The old granny was obviously unwilling to go down and could not help but to look at Rong Jindong. However, Rong Jindong did not look at her and only stood there obediently, not saying a word.

The old granny felt that this brat looked to be in a daze and probably would not be able to do anything to incite trouble. She hesitated for a moment, then said "Yes" and turned to leave.

The old granny left, while Liu Wei walked into the hall with Xiaoli in one hand and Rong Jindong in the other.

It was still cold outside, it was fine that Xiaoli was in the fields, since she had the skills, she could not freeze over, but Rong Jindong was different, this child's body looked extremely weak.

But the moment Liu Wei held onto Rong Jindong's small hand, he was stunned. She caressed the child's rough palm with his fingers, and looked at him with a strange gaze.

Liu Wei looked at him for a while, but did not say anything, and brought the two children back to the hall.

Upon entering, Rong Jindong acted as if she was prepared, and respectfully greeted her father, the Crown Prince.

The Crown Prince looked at Rong Jindong, he looked calm and collected, and asked: "Who allowed you to come?"

His tone was absolutely not amiable.

Hearing that, Rong Ling looked at the crown prince, and then said: "Xiaoli and Gui Dong have known each other for a long time, have you forgotten about your royal brother?"

If Rong Ling said this, it meant that Rong Jindong had been called over by him.

The crown prince glanced at Rong Ling, and sure enough, he stopped pursuing the matter. He then said to Rong Jindong, "Take your little brother to play, don't cause trouble."

Rong Jindong responded, then turned to Xiaoli and said: "Xiaoli, let's go out."

Xiaoli had been looking at Brother Xiaojin from the beginning, but after hearing her suggestion, without even thinking, he nodded her head.

Rong Jindong stretched out his hand as if she wanted to pull his brother's hand, but when she stopped in midair, he changed her mind and pulled his brother's wrist instead.

His wrist was separated by his clothes, so he couldn't feel anything. If he were to clasp his hands together, the roughness of his palms would definitely be discovered.

He didn't want to be discovered.

Holding hands and pulling wrists, to Xiaoli, it was more or less the same. He did not mind and only obediently followed Rong Jindong out.

The two of them did not go to the courtyard, but stayed in the neighboring room to keep warm.

The servant brought in a lot of pastries and tea. The woman who was originally outside the room also followed him like a greedy cat when she smelled it.

Seeing the two unfamiliar little girls, Rong Jindong raised his eyebrows, but didn't ask any questions.

Xiaoli, on the other hand, was sensible and pulled the big girl over to introduce her. "This is the big girl, this is the, they are my little sisters."

Disregarding the age difference, from the first time they met, Xiaoli forced herself to recognize this big girl as her little sister.

The big girl seemed to be accustomed to it, she was only a little curious about his young noble's Brother Xiaojin, which often hung on the tip of his tongue, and then sincerely greeted Rong Jindong.

Rong Jindong looked at the pastries on the table. She was obviously very hungry, so hungry that her stomach hurt, but he still took two pieces and gave them to the two girls.

"She's both Xiaoli's and my sister."

The big girl happily received the pastries. At the same time, she thought, "As expected of the big brother who was praised by the little gongzi to the skies. He's so gentle and considerate, just how he looks and how he's good."

Since the four children were in the house, they could play however they liked. After all, they were about the same age and interest.

However, Xiaoli was sensitive to the fact that the Brother Xiaojin had been very silent the entire time.

Xiaoli lowered her head, feeling a little dejected, she could not help but ask: "Brother Xiaojin, are you unwell?"

Rong Jindong retracted her gaze from the pastries, turned and looked at Xiaoli, shaking her head: "I'm fine."

"But I feel that Brother Xiaojin isn't comfortable." The moment she moved closer, he would move closer to Rong Jindong. Then, he would use her forehead to touch Rong Jindong's forehead to test the temperature.

But after some testing, Xiaoli realized that Brother Xiaojin did not have a fever.

But he was clearly absent-minded.

Could it be that the Brother Xiaojin did not want to play with him? Just distracted?

Xiaoli was injured, he pouted his lips and looked at Rong Jindong pitifully: "Brother Xiaojin doesn't like me."

These words were said with certainty, not doubt. In that moment, Rong Jindong was stunned.

Rong Jindong reacted quickly and patted Xiaoli's back: "No, I really like you."

"Really?" Xiaoli did not believe it.

Rong Jindong nodded, and said with a smile: "I like you the most."

Xiaoli could not tell whether what she said was true or false, but she was indeed comforted. It's been so long since we've seen each other. I'm so happy to see you! "

Rong Jindong laughed once again, and said: "I am very happy."

Xiaoli replied to them, she then returned to her lively and cheerful appearance, and excitedly chatted about what happened after the two of them parted ways.

Liu Wei quietly stood outside the cubicle, listening to the children's childish talk inside. However, her eyes carried a trace of indiscernible indifference.

Liu Wei raised her gaze and looked straight ahead, at the crown of a large pine and cypress tree outside.

She looked over and saw a gust of wind blowing on the tree, causing it to sway.
