"Good day father" Zhang xi greeted
Zhang muchen glanced at his daughter from the corner of his eyes he guessed what she is here for and sighed inwardly but nevertheless.
"How may I help you Xi" Zhang muchen asked.
"How are you doing" Zhang xi asked
Zhang muchen chuckled deeply before turning to face Zhang xi his red eyes meeting hers.
Zhang muchen stared at her for a couple of seconds in silence it made him uncomfortable when he sees her red eyes it is just like his but he always has these unsettling feeling when looking at her
He sighed "Am fine Xi how is your brother I haven't seen him in a while" Zhang muchen asked
"His probably out of the palace eunuch Kim is useless he can't keep his eyes on such a little boy" she said arrogantly and snorted
"You do know that is your brother you are talking about" Zhang muchen said amidst chuckling
She didn't answer and they both fell into an awkward silence
Zhang muchen was never the one to initiate a conversation even if he wanted to he doesn't know what a four year old girl would like talking about
Weirdly Zhang xi was just like him never the one to initiate a conversation and always carrying this melancholic look that makes her look lonely all the time.
"Father"
"Hmm"
"I have something to tell you or rather ask you" she said a little reluctantly which is so unlike her Zhang xi never really cared about how people felt she doesn't let people in and never cared about how others cared about her Zhang muchen sighed already knowing where the conversation was heading.
"Well father is Lady Li luli my mother " Xiao xi asked very straightforwardly.
Zhang muchen was a little stunned he didn't expect her to be so straightforward with her question the other times she tried to trick him into answering this question but she was so straightforward today Zhang muchen felt surprised.
Snapping out of his thoughts he looked straight in her eye hiding the unsettling feeling he felt
Zhang muchen stared inside her red eyes for sometime not knowing how to answer the question he always wondered if he told the truth how is it going to make sense in the ears of a four year old
Frankly speaking his not suppose to care if the world was destroyed or not as a demon king he should be creating more sinful creatures but something was stopping him
Something about himself wasn't clear
"Xu we have passed this topic" Zhang muchen said
"Father I have my reason for asking again and I am hoping that you can answer me" she said in a begging tone
"You are to young to know" Zhang muchen said in a tone of finality
"Father you know am more than my age why do you keep using that has an excuse for you information its not working" she said angrily and walked out as elegantly as she came in
"You can't know now nobody can" Zhang muchen muttered and turned his back looking outside the window
"I hope you are doing better than I am little fox" he said and inhaled sharply
