“Xiao Chen, you can live here from now on.”
After passing through the long corridor, Qian Renxue led Meng Chen to a small courtyard, and next to the small courtyard was her own courtyard.
“Yes, thank you, Brother Xue!”
Looking at his new place, Meng Chen nodded obediently, his little face showing gratitude, thanking Qian Renxue.
Qian Renxue smiled, reached out and patted Meng Chen’s head, a hint of doting affection appearing deep in her eyes.
This little guy is so cute, and he’s born with full soul power.
She has to take good care of him; he’s bound to become a Title Douluo in the future.
“Brother Xue, I live right next door to you.
If anything happens, just come find me, okay?”
Qian Renxue pointed to the large courtyard next to her and then said to Meng Chen.
Meng Chen glanced at it and nodded again to indicate that he understood.
Afterwards, Qian Renxue showed Meng Chen around the Crown Prince’s residence and had the kitchen prepare a sumptuous dinner.
After absorbing the bloodline of the Golden Dragon King, Meng Chen’s appetite increased dramatically, eating more than an adult.
To Qian Renxue’s astonishment, he ate three large bowls of rice and all the vegetables, finishing them completely.
Looking at Meng Chen’s round little belly and the grains of rice stuck to the corners of his mouth, Qian Renxue teased:
“Haha…
Xiao Chen, I didn’t expect you to be so big, but you can hold so much food.
You’re quite the little glutton!”
Upon hearing this, Meng Chen looked embarrassed and lowered his head, saying softly, “I’m sorry, Brother Xue.
I haven’t eaten much in a long time, so I ate a little too much.
Don’t worry, Brother Xue, I’ll eat less in the future.”
Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue’s smile froze again, and she mentally slapped herself once more.
I deserve to die!
The child is already pitiful, what’s wrong with him eating more?
It’s not like we can’t afford to raise him!
Qian Renxue’s eyes welled up with guilt and deep tenderness.
She reached out and wiped the rice grains from the corner of Meng Chen’s mouth, gently comforting him, “You don’t need to eat less.
You can eat as much as you want.
Your brother Xue is the Crown Prince of the Empire.
Do you think you’ll eat me out of house and home?”
Upon hearing this, Meng Chen was overjoyed.
“Really?!
Yay!
Brother Xue, you’re the best!”
Hearing “Brother Xue is the best!” warmed Qian Renxue’s heart and made her feel extremely satisfied.
She even pinched Meng Chen’s little cheek.
Shortly after, the butler returned.
“Your Highness, the junior college under the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy will start in a month, and the Education Commission has already reserved a place for you.”
“Yes, you may leave.
Oh, and arrange for two more maids to take care of Xiao Chen’s daily needs.”
Qian Renxue nodded slightly and gave the steward another instruction.
The steward respectfully replied, “Yes, Your Highness.”
And I have maids to take care of my daily life!
Meng Chen was secretly delighted.
They take care of all your needs for food, drink, accommodation, and transportation, and there are even people to wait on you.
Sure enough, choosing to go with Qian Renxue was absolutely the right decision!
Immediately afterwards, Qian Renxue turned to Meng Chen and said, “Xiao Chen, the Tian Dou Junior Academy will not start for another month.
During this time, you should stay at home.
I will find a royal soul master to teach you soul master knowledge.”
“You are born with full soul power.
After some time, your elder brother will arrange for a soul master to take you to hunt souls.”
“Yes, yes, I’ll listen to Brother Xue.” Meng Chen nodded obediently, showing an attitude of listening to Qian Renxue.
Qian Renxue was very satisfied and reached out to pat Meng Chen’s little head again.
After dinner, Meng Chen returned to his small villa, where two maids arranged by the steward had been waiting for him for some time.
The maids were named Qingdai and Hongyu.
They were dignified and polite.
Qingdai was also carrying a brand new set of clothes.
“Young Master, these are the clothes the butler prepared for you.
Please take a look and see if they fit.”
Meng Chen asked Qingdai to put the clothes in his room first.
After taking a bath, Meng Chen changed into new clothes.
The clothes were all white and fit him well.
The collar and cuffs were embroidered with gold thread, and a light purple tulip pattern was tattooed on the left chest, which exuded a touch of nobility and highlighted his otherworldly temperament.
In an instant, he transformed from a country boy into a noble young man.
Meanwhile, Qian Renxue had Meng Chen investigated.
She still had the necessary vigilance.
Soon, information about Meng Chen was placed on his desk.
Born in a small village outside Tiandou City, he lost both his parents and grew up relying on the kindness of others.
He possesses innate full soul power, the Soft Bone Rabbit Martial Soul, and has already accepted an invitation from the Spirit Hall.
If it weren’t for Qian Renxue’s interference and her abducting Meng Chen, he would have been sent to Wuhun City by the soul masters of the Heaven Dou Holy Temple not long after.
“Fortunately, we struck first.
Otherwise, if this child had been sent to Wuhun City and fallen into that woman’s hands, who knows what she would have done to him.”
Qian Renxue murmured to herself, secretly rejoicing.
As she burned the intelligence report, Qian Renxue recalled the fleeting glimpse she had seen during the day.
She had just returned from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School when she inadvertently saw Meng Chen sitting on the curb.
Although he was wearing a coarse linen dress covered in patches, his incredibly handsome, fair-skinned, and rosy-cheeked face immediately attracted her attention, especially the pair of slightly trembling golden rabbit ears on his head, which struck her heart.
She originally only intended to take Meng Chen home, but when she heard that he was an orphan, how could she resist the temptation of this adorable bunny-eared little boy!
Qian Renxue looked up at Meng Chen’s small courtyard, a worried expression on her face.
“I wonder if that child has any living habits…”
The next morning.
Meng Chen got up early and washed up with the help of Qingdai and Hongyu.
Hongyu even braided his slightly long hair into a short, thin scorpion braid, which looked extremely cute.
Looking at the fair and adorable Meng Chen, Qingdai and Hongyu were captivated by his youthful charm.
If it weren’t for their status, they would have loved to hug and pet him!
Touching the scorpion tail braid, Meng Chen felt somewhat helpless, but he didn’t let Hongyu untie it.
Never mind, let’s leave it at that.
Qingdai led Meng Chen to the dining hall, where Qian Renxue was already sitting at the table waiting.
When she saw Meng Chen’s scorpion braid swinging behind his head, she paused for a moment, then her lips curled up slightly, forming a faint smile.
To be honest, it looks even cuter with that scorpion braid.
“Good morning, Brother Xue.” Meng Chen said to Qian Renxue.
“Xiao Chen, come and have breakfast.
I specially asked the kitchen to make a portion of breakfast from all over Tiandou City.
See which one you prefer.”
Qian Renxue pointed to the breakfast spread on the table and greeted Meng Chen with a smile.
Meng Chen didn’t hold back at all.
He sat down at the table and started gulping down his food.
He ate so fast that he finished his breakfast in no time.
Seeing this, Qian Renxue handed Meng Chen the breakfast that he couldn’t reach, fed him, and watched him eat with a smile.
Her cheeks bulged out like a guinea pig’s, which was quite amusing.
In less than half an hour, Meng Chen had devoured the entire breakfast table.
Qian Renxue looked at the plate that had been licked clean and asked with concern, “Xiao Chen, are you full?
Would you like to ask the kitchen to bring another serving?”
Meng Chen wiped his hands clean, patted his round little belly, and said with a satisfied look on his face, “No need, Brother Xue, I’m full.
Brother Xue, are you full?”
“Brother, I have a small appetite.
Seeing how satisfied you are with your meal, I’m full too.”
“I have to go to the palace on business later.
If you’re bored at home, you can ask the steward to arrange for someone to take you out to play.”
Qian Renxue reached out and patted Meng Chen’s head, gently instructing him.
Meng Chen nodded obediently, reassuring Qian Renxue that he wouldn’t run away.
