Chapter 352: Ren Zinan

~7 min read 1,278 words

He Dai was still clutching his waist and spitting at the Xu family young master and Wei Lanqiao, and hearing the commotion here, he thought something was off and instantly turned his head.

Then he saw that Feng Xuanrui was holding Sui Sui and preparing to retreat.

They're leaving without him? Seeing this, He Dai's eyes turned red with anger: "Stop, I'm still here!"

He didn't speak, but when he shouted, Feng Xuanrui's speed increased, and he scooped up Sui Sui in a charge.

Feng Xuanbin, fearing he would drop his sister, kept moving his chubby legs and kept muttering: "Slow down, slow down, don't drop sister, oh my, my sixth brother, you go slower, watch your feet!"

Feng Xuanrui's speed was so fast that Ying Zhi didn't even react.

When she realized something was wrong, Feng You Tan was already shouting as he chased: "Feng Xuanrui, you're so annoying, you're the most annoying in the whole capital, you're more annoying than Tang Xiao Wu, ah ya ya, chase!"

Ying Zhi saw and thought, no, I have to chase too!

She lifted her skirt and rushed, and Liu He Meng, seeing her uneasy, followed.

Shen Hua Tang, usually very elegant and dignified, hesitated briefly, and between a sprint and a walk, gritted his teeth, lifted his skirt a little, and charged forward.

Many of the children still didn't understand the situation, but they would follow.

If you don't understand the situation, what to do? Never mind, just rush wherever there are more people.

He Dai shouted loudly from behind, while ahead Feng Xuanrui was rushing extremely fast.

The group of children, due to the speed, were stretched into a long line, which looked rather festive.

The Grand Princess showed herself, feeling a bit weary, and prepared to find a place to rest for a while.

Then she saw a group of children running, and they were heading toward her.

Although fatigue showed on her face, she still lifted a stern expression, intending to scold them a few words, urging the children to mind etiquette and not be so reckless.

They don't even look at the road; what if they fall again? As it turned out, Feng Xuanrui ran so fast that he didn't notice there were still people here.

So, with a swoosh, he just charged straight through.

Sui Sui did notice this stern Zuzu, but her brother didn't stop! Sui Sui reached out and shouted, but Feng Xuanrui didn't hear, and thus missed it.

Sui Sui shyly pressed her lips together, and anxiously looked back.

The Grand Princess was now stunned.

If Feng Xuanrui, this little bully, usually doesn't follow the script and just passed her, then she could understand.

But the little grandchildren in her residence, Ying Zhi and Ying Ningzhi, those little brats, how dare they?

Zuzu is right in front, doesn't even look, just charges through?

The Grand Princess was left standing still, and by the time she recovered, He Dai had already rushed past her leg.

The wind from the children's rapid run slightly lifted the Grand Princess's skirt.

The Grand Princess:? What made her somewhat pleased was…

She was not completely ignored.

At least…

Ying Chengzhi, this little grandchild, noticed her.

As a result, after seeing her, he changed direction, walked to the other side, and bowed his hands in greeting: "Zuzu."

The Grand Princess: …

This child was born with an eye defect, so his line of sight is often off.

The attendant promptly reacted, gently reminded Ying Chengzhi, who then corrected himself, changed direction in time, and again bowed to the Grand Princess: "Zuzu."

The Grand Princess couldn't articulate her feelings at that moment.

Should she speak of propriety?

But a group of children…

Fine, since they're happy, she doesn't want to dampen the mood with too many words.

Finally she just waved: "Go play, let the attendant keep close, don't take the wrong path, there are many ponds here."

Ying Chengzhi obediently replied, then again deviated from the planned route. The attendant swiftly stepped forward, reminded him in time, and he changed course again.

The Grand Princess felt utterly exhausted after watching.

These years, the chief physician has been summoned countless times.

But regarding this situation…

Can't cure it!

The most can be to improve it a bit, so it doesn't get worse.

But even that can't be done.

The Grand Princess had long set her mind at ease, since someone was always attending her, no major problems would arise.

Feng Xuanrui, in one breath, carried Sui Sui and ran to the front courtyard.

Although they had just fought, Sui Sui was only slightly affected; her little hat was crooked a bit, but Shen Hua Tang promptly straightened it.

So at this moment, Sui Sui, aside from a little sweat, had no other faux pas.

Feng Xuanrui rushed over in one breath, realized he had charged to the wrong place, and originally intended to leave while holding the person.

But Ren Zinan's sharp eyes spotted it.

Ren Zinan, whether at the Guó Gōng residence or at Qi Wang Fu, was famously despised by both cats and dogs, unwelcome.

However, he himself didn't care about that.

At that moment, seeing a person, Ren Zinan's eyes lit up in an instant!

He wasn't unattractive, but his demeanor wasn't great, carrying a hint of soft‑bony awkwardness.

When walking, he still swayed a little.

Because of this, he was often scolded by Ren Ce Fei.

But Ren Zinan…

He knows the rules and admits his mistake, yet he refuses to change no matter what.

As time passed, nobody bothered to say more, simply accepting that this good-for-nothing would remain as he was.

Ren Zinan's inner garment is a silver-white cross-collared long robe, over which he wears a crimson gauze robe; as he walks, the red gauze sways, combined with his all-over wine scent, plus his unique demeanor, giving people the feeling that a playboy son has stepped out of a painting and come alive.

Feng Xuanrui saw him and couldn't help but frown.

He was holding Sui Sui, wanting to leave, but Ren Zinan laughed and interrupted: "Hey, little cousin!"

The nephew from Ren Ce Fei's natal family, here in the Wangfu, is fit to be called a cousin.

So, Ren Zinan spoke up openly.

As soon as he spoke, the youths nearby noticed Feng Xuanrui approaching while holding a child.

Anyone that Feng Xuanrui, this little bully of Jing Cheng, holds in his arms, the crowd instantly realized the little girl's identity.

The young mistress of Qi Wang Fu, the host of today's banquet.

Everyone curiously examined Sui Sui.

Some were quite polite, merely giving a quick glance before looking away, so as not to add pressure to the child.

Some, young and ignorant of manners, poorly schooled in etiquette, saw that Sui Sui was lovely, her eyes round and sparkling, quite cute, and their gazes almost glued to her.

Not all of these gazes were friendly—how to describe some of them?

It made Sui Sui feel like she was a slab of meat on the butcher's block at the town market.

Those who can hang out with Ren Zinan are mostly also wayward playboys.

Feng Xuanrui took a dislike to these people; he gave a brief reply and prepared to leave with Sui Sui in his arms.

Ren Zinan hadn't yet gotten a good look at the new little cousin; how could he just let Feng Xuanrui walk away like that? So he took a couple quick steps, stopped him directly: "Since you've come, let Cousin Brother take a look at our little sister."

The second watch is at 19:00.
