Ruan Shu had only indulged in various snacks until she was half-full; her eating habits were delicate and sincere.
She appeared very easy to care for, tempting one to indulge her.
When she was halfway full, her grandfather came to pick her up.
"Shu Shu, look at what Grandpa has brought for you."
Ruan He walked over joyfully, accompanied by an elderly man who appeared to be about his age. Unlike Ruan He's cheerful demeanor, the old man's expression was solemn, reminiscent of a headmaster.
Ruan Ling'an and the others all stood up respectfully, addressing him as the vice principal. Ruan Ling'an and the others all stood up respectfully, addressing him as the vice principal. ###
Ruan Shu glanced at her brother and then sweetly greeted the vice principal.
The old man glanced at the little girl and shook his head, "Not suitable indeed."
She seemed easy to bully; both the students at their school and the kindergarten students in the neighborhood were mischievous.
It was rare for the violent members of the Ruan family to produce such a soft character.
Ruan He proudly raised his chin and said, "Indeed, I was worried that my granddaughter would be bullied when I sent her to your school." "I am quite satisfied with the school chosen by that elderly man, Ruan Xiao. Apart from that.
The two elderly men chatted as they walked away, and Ruan Shu moved closer to her grandfather.
"Grandpa."
"Are you thirsty?" Here you go.
He handed her the milk and fruit juice she liked.
Naturally carrying a milky and fresh woody aroma, Ruan Shu especially enjoyed drinking this at home.
"Thank you, Grandpa."
After receiving her sweet thanks, her fluffy little head was rubbed.
Ruan Shu's lips curved into a smile as she leaned against her grandfather's palm, gently tilting her head to show her obedience.
"This is Grandpa's friend." He brought the fruit juice. You can call him Grandpa An.
Ruan Shu's blue eyes glanced at the old man, and then she affectionately called him Grandpa An.
"Thank you."
Upon seeing this soft and tender child, the old man's gaze softened slightly.
"Alright, let's go." We won't disturb your study anymore.
Ruan He was spirited, as he had nothing to do now but spend every day at home raising his children. There couldn't be a more comfortable time.
"Goodbye, brother."~"
After bidding farewell to her brother, Ruan Shu left with her grandfather.
As soon as they entered the house, they saw a young man lounging in the yard, sipping afternoon tea.
His long black hair was tied into a ponytail, his features sharp, with deep and captivating golden eyes. The ruby earrings hanging from his ears were replaced with sapphires, swaying gently in the breeze, still beautiful.
The young man sat upright with an aristocratic demeanor, his movements while drinking tea exuding elegance, perfectly embodying nobility.
"You're back."
Listening to his tone, one would think this was his home.
The butler standing behind him smiled faintly, almost rolling his eyes.
Ever since the esteemed Your Majesty grabbed the young lady in front of him and ran off, the butler's respect for His Majesty had decreased slightly.
What kind of proper Majesty would snatch people!
"Your Majesty?"
Ruan He was surprised by his presence.
"Mr. Ruan, it's been a while." How is your health?
"Haha, thank you, Your Majesty, for caring about this old man's health." It's currently fine.
While they talked, Ruan Shu had already skipped over to Almor.
"Why did you come?" The delicate girl's voice was gentle.
"If you don't come to see me, I'll come to see you."
Almor shrugged slightly, casually picking up a delicate pastry to offer it to her.
"You heartless little thing, you didn't come to see me for so long."
Ruan Shu's cheeks blushed slightly as she hurriedly shook her head in explanation, her mouth stuffed with food.
"No, my grandfather returned, and I didn't dare to come over."
She hadn't even visited someone else's house yet. What if she got lost in such a large estate?
"Alright, I'll reluctantly forgive you." Come here.
Ruan Shu approached her and gently patted her head while pinching her cheeks on both sides. Even when bullied, she didn't get angry. She just stared at the pastry in front of her with clean and pretty eyes, full of a desire to eat. ###
That piece she just ate was surprisingly delicious.
Almor, of course, chose to indulge this greedy little cat.
Observing the interaction between the two, Ruan He narrowed his eyes slightly, quietly inquiring.
"It seems that Your Majesty has a good relationship with my Shu Shu."
He emphasized 'my Shu Shu.'
Almor's lips curled slightly. "Just took this little one out for a stroll."
He suddenly moved swiftly, grabbing a small vine of black-purple color that twisted like a snake with his fingertips.
Ruan Shu exclaimed.
"Why are you running around?"
She reached out and pulled the small vine back, then said to Almor, "It might hold a grudge."
Standing behind, Knight Commander Os said, "It's not about holding a grudge; it's all normal." After all, the royal family does seem to have a slight aversion to mutated plants.
Sitting down beside her, Ruan Shu clasped the mutated vine around her wrist, gently patting it with her fingers.
"No causing trouble."
The vine instantly calmed down.
Ruan Shu noticed that everyone's gaze was on her and the mutated vine on her wrist, but they all remained silent, tacitly acknowledging the situation.
Ruan He frowned slightly. Although his granddaughter's spiritual power was only F, it seemed she had an inexplicable fondness for mutating plants.
He wondered whether this was a positive or negative development.
After sitting at Ruan's house for a while, Almor suggested taking Ruan Shu to his estate.
What could Ruan He do? Naturally, he followed his granddaughter's wishes.
After thinking for a moment, Ruan Shu nodded and went back home to retrieve the two hair ornaments she had crafted with exquisite gems for Almor.
"I've finished making them." "See if you like them." If not, I can change them.
Almor naturally lifted the little girl and placed her on his lap, letting her lean against him, and skillfully played with the two hair ornaments in her hands.
The black and white tassels swayed, the gems sparkling in the sunlight, perfectly blending with the threads, exuding an indescribable antique charm.
To match these two gems, Ruan Shu chose a type of thread called Heavenly Horse, made from the tail hair of a mythical beast. It is sturdy yet soft and smooth.
Almor bid farewell to Ruan He and held her before heading to the neighboring estate.
After they left, Ruan He became increasingly uneasy and then complained to the butler.
"Shu Shu is from our family, right?" Why does it feel like she's from His Majesty's family?
The butler: "..."
You're only realizing now, huh? His Majesty's behavior of snatching the child was too natural and frank, and he cunningly bought the neighboring estate.
Indeed, it was bought by His Majesty. The previous owner over there wasn't His Majesty's, but seemed to be a duke's, and basically no one lived there!
