The woman walking at the front was like a Heaven Immortal. Who else could it be but her mother?

Little Jiajia’s eyes lit up. She stuffed the box in her arms into MO Yuan’s hand and rushed forward like a cannonball. “Mother, I missed you so much!”

Ji Luo’s expression didn’t change. She turned around and dodged to the side.

Little Jiajia was shocked and couldn’t stop in time. Not only did she miss, but she also pressed down on a group of maidservants.

Everyone instantly exclaimed.

The maidservants thought to themselves, “As expected, the princess is cuter in our memories.”

Meeting the resentful gazes of the group of maidservants, Little Jiajia got up awkwardly and patted the nonexistent dust off her body. She looked angrily at her mother, who was watching the show from the side. “Mother…”

Ji Luo reached out and tapped Little Jiajia’s forehead twice. “You actually came back.”

Little Jiajia took advantage of the situation and hugged her arm. “Oh my, Mother, what are you talking about? This is my house. If I don’t come back, where can I go?”

“Who knows?” Ji Luo wouldn’t fall for her tricks. She waved away the servants who had gathered around and turned to walk back.

Little Jiajia refused to let go and followed her. “Mother, I’ve missed you so much. Don’t you miss me at all?” “How rare. So you still have me in your heart.” “As heaven and earth can see, my heart is filled with my mother.”

“Oh? There’s only me and no one else?”

“Of course there’s Father, Grandmother, Imperial Uncle, Eldest Cousin, Second

Cousin, Third Cousin…” Little Jiajia listed the names of everyone in the Xuanyuan family. In the end, she added inwardly, “There’s also my Little

Husband.”

“Eh, where’s Father? Isn’t he in the residence?”

Hearing her ask about Xuanyuan Ce, Ji Luo said in amusement, “He’s brooding inside.”

Little Jiajia stuck out her tongue guiltily. “Fine, I still have to coax him.” she thought.

The mother and daughter chatted warmly. Xuanyuan Ce stopped eating and paced back and forth anxiously.

“Why haven’t they entered yet?” he thought.

After circling around for an unknown number of times, he finally heard footsteps. He quickly sat back at the table and pretended to eat seriously.

“Beautiful Father.” A soft voice sounded at the door.

Xuanyuan Ce, who had originally planned to let his daughter coax him out of his anger, gave up in a second. He threw down his chopsticks and rushed over. “Daughter, I miss you so much.”

“You’ve lost weight. You must have suffered along the way.”

On closer inspection, his eyes were still red.

Ji Luo was speechless. This man was pathetic.

Little Jiajia was speechless. What happened to being angry?

When Little Jiajia left home, it was a hot summer day. Now that it was late winter, they had not seen each other for half a year.

In half a year, Little Jiajia had grown a little taller and lost a lot of baby fat on her face. Xuanyuan Ce couldn’t get enough of seeing her. As he instructed someone to prepare Little Jiajia’s favorite food, he asked about her well-being like an old mother. Ji Luo could not even butt in.

Fortunately, everyone was used to it. No matter how dignified His Highness was outside, he was a completely different person at home.

Everyone was already used to their behavior as the loving father and strict mother.

After Little Jiajia ate, Ji Luo quickly interrupted Xuanyuan Ce’s nagging. “Alright, it’s not too late to talk tomorrow. Jiajia is tired. I’ll send her back to the courtyard to rest.”

Little Jiajia hurriedly nodded. After traveling day and night for two months, she could not remember how many horses had died from running. She was indeed a little tired.

Xuanyuan Ce’s heart ached for his daughter, so he could only stop talking. “I’ll send someone to the palace to send a message to Mother so that she can sleep easy tonight. ”

“That’s right.” Ji Luo held Little Jiajia’s hand and walked out. “By the way, I’ll sleep with my daughter tonight. I won’t be coming back. You can sleep by yourself.”

Xuanyuan Ce was shocked. His daughter was back, but his wife was gone.

No matter how Xuanyuan Ce tossed and turned at night, he could not fall asleep. In the Jade Pavilion, Little Jiajia, who had taken a shower, nestled warmly in Ji Luo’s arms. She thought of something and suddenly said, “Mother, give birth to a brother or sister for me with Father.”

Ji Luo was stunned, but she didn’t ask why. She smiled and said, “I heard that you found yourself a husband in Great Nia?”

Ji Luo had grown up in the Valley of Heavenly Secrets since she was young, unlike the other women in this world who were bound by all kinds of rules. She was quite bold and unrestrained. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have wanted to be with Xuanyuan Ce despite violating the clan rules.

With her personality, she was not so strict with her daughter.

Or rather, as long as Little Jiajia didn’t do anything outrageous, she could tolerate it..
