Ning Meng Yao and Qiao Tian Chang had returned. The Imperial Tutor and his people would surely know that. And they would have a lot of surprises for them. Therefore, what Qiao Tian Chang and Ning Meng Yao had to do now was to confuse them and make them believe that they were not the ones who rescued Nangong Yan.
As long as they managed to trick the Imperial Tutor and his people, they were not afraid if those people were to keep an eye on them every day.
Ning Meng Yao rubbed her chin. She was very interested in his proposal: “What are you planning to do?”
“What am I planning to do? You’ll know by then.” Qiao Tian Chang’s lips twitched into a smile.
“Very well. Let’s have a look at our Little Monkey. I miss him.” The Little Monkey had never left her for such a long time before. She wondered if he still remembered her?
Naturally, Qiao Tian Chang also wanted to see his son. He had not seen him for such a long time, he also missed him.
The two of them cleaned themselves up and went to Qiao Mo Feng’s room, where Qiao Mo Feng was dressing the child. He really looked like an older brother.
Ning Meng Yao was at ease seeing how well the two of them got along.
After the two of them entered the room, Qiao Mo Shang’s gaze was locked on them: “Daddy… Daddy.”
Qiao Tian Chang’s eyes brightened, he hugged the child in his arms: “Shang’er, you still remember daddy?”
Ning Meng Yao immediately became jealous. She walked in front of him, and asked mournfully, “Little Monkey, you only remember daddy? Do you remember mommy?”
Qiao Mo Shang blinked: “Wolf…”
Ning Meng Yao looked at her son surprisingly, then she wondered why did the word sound so much like “mommy”? [TLN: ‘狼 liang’ (wolf) and ‘娘 niang’ (mother) sounds similar when spoken]
Qiao Mo Feng was embarrassed: “These few days, I have been teaching him how to say mommy, but…” Why did “mommy” sound more like “wolf” instead?
Ning Meng Yao looked at the embarrassed Qiao Mo Feng, she could not help but laugh: “Oh, I see. Feng’er, it’s been hard on you.”
He had to practice martial arts every day, and take care of his little brother, and he even taught him how to speak.
“No, no it’s nothing. I love Shang’er, and I also like to talk to him.” Qiao Mo Feng said quickly, while shaking his head.
He really liked these things. Every time he played with Shang’er, he was also very happy.
“Little Monkey, come on, call mommy.”
“Wolf.”
“Mommy…”
“Wolf…”
“It’s mommy, not wolf.” Ning Meng Yao stubbornly looked at Qiao Mo Shang, and said very seriously.
Qiao Mo Shang stared blankly at Ning Meng Yao. Then, he spoke after a long time: “Wolf…”
Ning Meng Yao was frustrated. How could he pronounce ‘father’ so clearly but not “mother”?
“Mommy, it’s okay. Little brother is very smart, he will learn quickly.” Qiao Mo Feng saw Ning Meng Yao’s frustrated look so he quickly stood up for his little brother.
Qiao Tian Chang had already wanted to laugh as he watched Ning Meng Yao work so hard for her child to call her “mommy”. When Qiao Mo Feng said that, he felt even more funny, in the end, he could not help but burst into laughter.
Ning Meng Yao turned to Qiao Tian Chang disgustingly: “Are you laughing at me?”
Qiao Tian Chang coughed and shook his head quickly: “No, how can I laugh at you?”
Qiao Mo Feng watched the interaction between his father and mother, with a happy smile on his face.
The four of them stayed in the room for a while, before going out.
The adults took the children out for a stroll, they did not care about the people watching them.
Qiao Mo Feng looked at his father and mother in doubt. He did not understand, why were they strolling outside? Was there anything important to do?
“Where are we going, daddy, mommy?” Qiao Mo Feng finally could not hold back his curiosity.
Qiao Tian Chang smiled: “I heard that there are some auctions going on, so we are going to have a look.”
Qiao Mo Feng was dumbfounded. He was very curious about what his father said.
Ning Meng Yao smiled faintly, she kept her expectations to herself. She wanted to see what Qiao Tian Chang wanted to do.
There was a crowd that came to one of the largest auction houses in the city.
Ning Meng Yao and the rest went to a private room and looked at the auction, Ning Meng Yao frowned when she spotted something: “Someone is auctioning a Snowfall Sword.”
Qiao Tian Chang froze, he then glanced at the list in Ning Meng Yao’s hand: “Just let them auction it.”
