Before the little bun could respond, Xiao Shici said, “If not, you can call me Uncle Shici.”
“I think I’ll just call you ‘Brother’. Thank you, Brother,” the little bun said. At the same time, he thought to himself, ‘If I call you ‘Brother’, it’d seem like he’s my mother’s junior. With this, he won’t be able to have any thoughts about Mother!’
Xiao Shici’s eyes flashed slightly when he heard the little bun’s words. Then, he laughed heartily and nodded in agreement, saying, “Alright, just call me ‘Brother’. It’s fine as long as you like it.”
‘Huh? He agreed so quickly? Did I misunderstand? Perhaps he doesn’t have any thoughts about Mother…”
The little bun could not help but look at Xiao Shici a few more times.
Meanwhile, Yu Yunxi had another headache.
‘If I had known earlier, I would’ve explained Xiao Shici’s identity to Junjin. After all, Xiao Shici is his uncle. Now, the seniority is all messed up. Forget it, forget it, it’s just a small matter. I’ll explain it to Junjin when there’s a chance.’ After that, silence descended on the carriage.
Not long after the carriage left the King of Zhenbei’s Residence, Yu Xiaoxiao rushed out with a group of people. She questioned the servant guarding the door angrily, “Where’s Yu Yunxi?”
“T-the Eldest Princess just left in a carriage,” the servant replied tremblingly. “You idiot, how could you let her leave?! Why didn’t you stop her? Which
direction did she go?” Vil Xiaoxiao asked fnrionslv. glanning the servant-

The servant almost lost his balance and fell. After he stabilized his footing, he only lowered his head silently, feeling too afraid to breathe loudly. At the same time, he felt wronged and helpless.
‘Second Miss didn’t give us any instructions beforehand. How were we to know that we were supposed to stop the Eldest Princess from leaving? Moreover, the Eldest Princess has such a noble status. How can we stop her from doing anything?’
The servant remained silent. He knew he had no right to resist and could only endure it.
At this time, Yu Xiaoxiao ordered the maidservant standing behind her, saying angrily, “Quick, go to the Eastern Palace and tell the Crown Prince that Yu Yunxi and the Third Prince of Beixiao have gone out.”
Yu Xiaoxiao was so angry and stimulated by the incident last night that she could not sleep the entire night. She was even more resentful that the Crown Prince refused to even give her a dress. However, her mother had advised her to be obedient and sensible in front of the Crown Prince so the Crown Prince would be able to see the difference between her and Yu Yunxi.
‘Also, that b*tch, Yu Yunxi, actually dared to seduce other men behind the Crown Prince’s back!’
“Yes, Second Miss. I’ll go to the Eastern Palace and report this to the Crown Prince immediately.”
“Go,” Yu Xiaoxiao said before she continued to say to the others, “As for the rest of you, follow me. I want to see how an unmarried woman has the cheek to go out with a man!”
Yu Xiaoxiao had clearly forgotten that the man Yu Yunxi had gone out with was Yu Yunxi’s fiance in name. However, even if Xiao Shici was not her fiance, no one would dare to say anything. After all, she was the Eldest Princess. It was not surprising if she had a few male companions.
The Full Moon Pavilion was quite a distance from the King of Zhenbei’s
Residence.
As the carriage swayed, Yu Yunxi, who had woken up too early today, could not help but feel sleepy. It did not take long before she fell asleep.
Seeing that Yu Yunxi had fallen asleep, the little bun took a blanket from the side and covered Yu Yunxi with it. When he turned around, he saw Xiao Shici looking at him. He froze and said unnaturally, “I was worried that Sister would catch a cold..
Xiao Shici reached out and rubbed the little bun’s head as he said in a deep voice, “Actually, it’s fine for you to call her ‘Mother’ in front of me.”
The little bun raised his head and looked at Xiao Shici in shock. “You know my identity?”
When the little bun regained his senses, he turned away awkwardly and said, “No, I’m the King of Youshan’s son. What ‘mother’? I don’t know what you’re talking about!”
‘I can’t admit it no matter what! If he has ill intentions, I’ll implicate Mother and Father it I admit to it!’
As though he could read the little bun’s mind, Xiao Shici said, “I won’t hurt your mother.”
‘W-what is trying to do?’
The little bun had a headache. He could not figure out Xiao Shici’s thoughts.
“You’re the son of the King of Youshan and also Feng Yili, the Prince Regent, right?”
The little bun: .
At this point, there was no point in hiding so the little bun pulled a long face and asked, “How did you know?”
“I already knew this a while ago, and I’ve also mentioned it to your mother,” Xiao Shici explained patiently. His expression clearly told the little bun that there was no need to hide and that he already knew what he needed to know.
The little bun looked deflated. As it turned out, the other party had already seen through his lie. After a moment, he said, “Alright, I’ll be honest. She’s my mother, my father’s Princess Consort. You can’t have any ideas about her!”
Instead of responding to those words, Xiao Shici suddenly said, “I also have another identity. My name is also Feng Sheng.”
“Feng Sheng?”
The little bun frowned as he thought to himself, ‘Why does this name sound so familiar?’
After a few moments, the little bun finally recalled where he had heard the name before.
‘That’s right! When I was in the King of Xinan’s Residence, Grandfather always mentioned this name!’
Realization dawned on the little bun, and he asked in shock, “So you, you’re my eldest uncle?”
“Yes.”
The little bun’s expression turned solemn immediately as he said, “I-I’m sorry, Uncle. I was rude to you earlier…”
The little bun fidgeted with his fingers and felt uneasy, worried that Xiao Shici would dislike him. Everyone in the King of Xinan’s Residence treated him and his mother extremely well, so in his opinion, Xiao Shici had to be a good person as well.
Xiao Shici carried the little bun over and said gently, “I’m not angry. You don’t have to apologize.”
“If you’re my uncle, then you definitely won’t fight with Father for my mother,” the little bun said as he patted his chest in joy and relief. The anxiety in his heart vanished completely at this moment.
Xiao Shici was stroking the little bun’s head. However, when he heard the little bun’s words, his eyes glinted with unknown emotions as he murmured, “Is that
“Huh? What did you say, Uncle?” the little bun asked curiously since he did not hear Xiao Shici clearly.
Before Xiao Shici could reply, a voice rang from outside.
“Third Prince, Eldest Princess, we’ve arrived at Full Moon Pavilion.”
Yu Yunxi was woken up by the voice. She opened her eyes slowly and soon saw the little bun sitting in Xiao Shici’s arms.
The little bun rushed into Yu Yunxi’s arms immediately and complained, “Mother, why didn’t you tell me he’s my eldest uncle?”
‘Eldest uncle?’
Yu Yunxi looked up and met Xiao Shici’s smiling eyes. With this, she naturally understood that Xiao Shici had explained the matter to the little bun..
