The Tyrant Father's Pampered Daughter

Before he left, he was afraid that Consort Lu would be jealous.

Ling Tianyin didn’t forget to kiss her forehead twice.

“I said before that I wanted Shen’er to be the crown prince, but you refused.

“Now that I want to personally check the crown prince’s homework, I have no choice but to go to the empress’s place. I’m afraid that you’ll think too much. I’ll come back to accompany you at night and coax Shen’er to sleep, alright?”

Consort Lu smiled indifferently. “His Majesty, in this life, your consort doesn’t expect Shen’er to have power or nobility. I just hope that he’ll be healthy and safe. That’s enough.

“Being the crown prince is really tiring. It’s better to give it to someone more capable.

“If you really don’t have time tonight, there’s no need to be in a hurry to come back. The crown prince is the future ruler of a country. His homework is more important.”

Ling Tianyin sneered. “In my opinion, that child Ling Zhou might not be completely obedient and sensible.”

Ling Zhou was Yun Linzhou’s real name.

Consort Lu knew that Ling Tianyin had always disliked this child who was a little slow when he was young.

Even though the father and son had been separated for many years and were reunited again, the scene was as heart-warming as one would expect.

Consort Lu knew that this was not something she should interfere in, so she didn’t say anything else.

After sending Ling Tianyin off, she went to the side hall to see Gu Nuo’er and Ling Shen.

The two children sat together and ate heartily.

The palace maids served at the side.

Consort Lu couldn’t help but reveal a gentle smile of motherly love.

Consort Lu took this opportunity to go to the bedroom, planning to arrange for the palace servants to tidy up a room for Gu Nuo’er to stay in.

She never expected that Ling Tianyin, who had just left, would return.

Ling Tianyin felt that the child had seen him get angry twice today.

This would probably affect Ling Shen’s fear of him.

Therefore, he still planned to accompany his son for a meal before leaving.

Even if Gu Nuo’er was around, he could endure it and ignore this little girl!

However, when he walked to the door of the side hall, he was stunned by the scene inside.

The palace servant was about to speak when he quickly raised his hand, indicating not to alarm them.

In the hall, although Ling Shen was young, he took care of Gu Nuo’er like a little man.

“Qianhong, take a few meatballs and put them in Elder Sister Nuo’er’s bowl.”

He sat at the side and instructed with his chubby hands.

Qianhong couldn’t help but laugh. “Your Highness, you have to give Princess Yaoguang some time too. Her bowl is so full that nothing can fit anymore.”

Ling Shen turned around and saw that the small bowl in front of Gu Nuo’er was indeed piled up into a small mountain of food.

He jumped off the chair and ran to Gu Nuo’er’s side with his short legs.

Her big eyes were filled with admiration. “Elder Sister Nuo’er, eat more.”

Gu Nuo’er’s pink lips lit up as she ate.

She smiled. “Brother Shen’er, my father once taught me a wonderful trick to eat meatballs. Let me show you!”

The child pierced through three meatballs in a row with a chopstick.

Ling Shen clapped his small hands. “It looks like candied hawthorns!”

“That’s right. Try it.” Gu Nuo’er bent down and let Ling Shen have the first bite first.

Ling Shen immediately opened his mouth obediently and ate happily.

He looked at Gu Nuo’er enviously. “Elder Sister Nuo’er, why does your father know so much? He’s a hundred, a thousand times better than my father!”

When Ling Tianyin, who was standing at the door, heard this, his eyes dimmed.

The child blinked and put down her chopsticks.

She got off the stool and looked down at Ling Shen’s chubby face.

“Brother Shen’er, let me ask you. Does your father usually treat you well?”

“He does. He’ll always think of me and my mother first when he has the best things.”

As he spoke, Ling Shen felt a little down. He lowered his head. “It’s just that I occasionally hear the palace servants say that Father is a big baddie who kills people wantonly.

“Shen’er doesn’t want a baddie to be my father.”
