Capítulo 15: What About the Day After Tomorrow?
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
As the person closest to Emperor Yong Ning, Xiao Lizi could feel that the emperor had a lot on his mind recently because of the search for the princess. Even his footsteps were heavier than usual.
He could normally make the journey much faster, but today, Emperor Yong Ning took a long time and was sweating all over.
"Your Majesty, can I wipe away your sweat?"
Xiao Lizi took out the handkerchief he always carried with him and waited.
Emperor Yong Ning stopped and let Xiao Lizi wipe his sweat.
After he was done, he continued to stroll around the imperial garden.
There were not many people in the imperial garden at this time of the day. The air was humid and stuffy. It was very uncomfortable. Emperor Yong Ning did not care. With fewer people chattering around him, he felt more at ease.
When they passed by some rocks, Emperor Yong Ning said, "I can hear something coming from over there."
Xiao Lizi listened carefully. "No!"
Emperor Yong Ning looked at Xiao Lizi as if he was a piece of trash. "Let's go and take a look."
At the entrance of the rockery, Jun Ning and Jun Yu, the two little kids, had already finished eating the roast chicken. They were now chatting away and setting a time for their next meeting.
"Boss, do you have time tomorrow? Let's meet here tomorrow. Same time, same place, okay?" Jun Yu's eyes were filled with eagerness as he looked at Jun Ning.
It was obvious that he liked Jun Ning very much and liked spending time with her.
This kind of love came inexplicably, and it was unexplainable, but he liked it.
Jun Ning touched her chin and thought for a moment. Then, she said, "Yu, I might not be free tomorrow." Her mother had been keeping a close eye on her recently, so she would not get to leave. Today was different.
"What about the day after tomorrow? Do you have time the day after tomorrow?" Jun Yu continued to ask.
The little guy's eyes were filled with eagerness, and no one could bear to turn him down.
However, Jun Ning touched her head and said apologetically, "Well... The day after tomorrow might not be possible either."
Jun Yu stopped talking and looked at Jun Ning pitifully. His big eyes were filled with tears. He looked like he would start crying again at any moment.
Jun Ning could not bear to see Jun Yu cry. She looked away in frustration after one glance. Holding onto Jun Yu's shoulders, she shook him and said in an irritated tone, "Yu, don't cry!"
Not far away, Emperor Yong Ning was displeased. "This little brat actually made Jun Yu cry?"
Because Jun Ning was sitting with her back toward the emperor, he could not see the embarrassment on Jun Ning's face. So, when he saw Jun Yu crying, he thought that Jun Yu was being bullied.
In addition, from the back, Jun Ning looked exactly like the same little brat who had tested his patience the other day. Without even looking at her face, the emperor knew that she was the little brat who had teased him that day.
He did not have a good first impression of this little brat.
Since they had seen these events unfold, everyone naturally thought that this little brat was up to no good again and that he was bullying this boy.
Speaking of which, hadn't the Golden Guards been looking all over for him?
The Golden Guards had tried so hard to find him, but the emperor had found him just like that?
It had not taken him much effort at all!
Whether it was the anger that pushed him forward or not, Emperor Yong Ning suddenly felt much better. His entire face was radiant, and his steps were faster.
He strode forward in anger, wanting to catch the little brat who had teased him and teach him a lesson.
At the same time, he also had to stand up for his youngest and most timid son.
No one was allowed to bully his youngest son.
This little brat dared to mess with him. He would break this little brat's legs.
However, Xiao Lizi stopped him. "Your Majesty, look carefully. The little brat is not bullying the seventeenth prince. It looks like the seventeenth prince is playing with that little brat."
