Zhai Xiyou coaxed the child in his arms distressedly. Ai Ruo looked like a combination of him and Ruo'er, with eyebrows and eyes like him, a mouth like him, and a nose like him. However, those big watery eyes were different from Ruo'er.

A perfect resemblance!

Unable to bear to make Ai Ruo cry anymore, Zhai Xiyou stretched out his hand to calm Ai Ruo's frightened mood.

Little Airuo is almost one year old. She is already learning to speak, and she is already able to call her father. She called Zhai Xiyou in a sweet voice, "Father."

Zhai Xiyou responded happily, took a piece of cake placed on the coffee table, stretched it out in front of Ai Ruo, "Hey, it's the sweet-scented osmanthus cake you like."

Little Airuo frowned. In fact, she didn't like sweet-scented osmanthus cake, but it was given to her by her father. Her mother-in-law taught her that she must accept everything from her father.

Even though she didn't like sweet-scented osmanthus cake, Xiao Airuo still took it and swallowed it.

Her father's big hand was helping her to move her back. After she swallowed the sweet-scented osmanthus cake in her hand, her father cared for her and made her a cup of warm tea.

"Ruo'er, have a cup of tea." Zhai Xiyou helped little Ai Ruo hold the tea cup and put the rim of the cup to Ai Ruo's mouth.

Little Airuo drank a cup of tea, laughed happily, and asked Xiang Zhai Xiyou sweetly, "Father, why do you always ignore your mother-in-law? Don't you like your mother-in-law?"

"Ruo'er!" Zhai Xiyou suddenly became angry! Even though Zhai Airuo's eyes are similar to Ruo'er's, they are not his and Ruo'er's children.

Now that Zhai Airuo mentions Ha Tangyue in front of Zhai Xiyou, isn't it reminding Zhai Xiyou that she, Zhai Airuo, is the child of Zhai Xiyou and Ha Tangyue?

"Father, Ruo'er knows you're wrong!" Little Ai Ruo doesn't know so much. She just does what her mother and concubine teach her on a daily basis.

Now that his father was angry, Zhai Airuo followed his mother's instructions not to cry and to plead guilty in front of his father.

Zhai Xiyou was not an angry person by nature, but when he saw little Ai Ruo's pitiful expression and the mist in his eyes, he looked more and more like Ruo'er.

"It's the father's fault, not Ruo'er's fault. Ruo'er is still young and doesn't understand anything. No wonder Ruo'er!" Zhai Xiyou suppressed his dissatisfaction and disgust towards Ha Tangyue and carefully took care of Zhai Airuo's snacks.

Outside the main hall of the East Palace, a subordinate finally ran in from outside.

Zhai Xiyou glanced at Youge's subordinates on the ground and asked, "How are things going?"

If Xiao Airuo is just a child who is almost one year old, Zhai Xiyou will not be too wary of her.

"Return to the master, the letter has been delivered. There is no news from the Hades Palace yet, but my subordinates have sent people around to respond."

"Is she really back?" Ruo'er, whom Zhai Xiyou misses deeply, has been missing for more than a year. Is she really coming back now?

The subordinate who was kneeling on the ground replied: "It is understood that the wife of the master of the Pluto Palace has indeed returned to the Pluto Palace. She is now in the main altar of the Pluto Palace, and the master of the Pluto Palace is also in the main altar!"

"No wonder, the Eighth Emperor will miss the opening of the dynasty on the fifteenth day of this year, and he is not afraid of his father's blame!" The soft light in Zhai Xiyou's eyes has long since disappeared.

"Master, is there anything else I need to tell you?"

Zhai Xiyou shook his head and waved the hand that was not holding Ai Ruo, "Go down first!"

When his subordinate was about to leave, Zhai Xiyou stopped him again and said, "Let Youge help cover up this matter!" You can delay it as long as you can. Father, I don't know what's best!

"Yes, Master." The subordinate left completely.

As for Ha Tangyue, who was hiding in the dark, she had already guessed it!
