1441: Unrequited Love Is Painful
Not long after, the Luo family arrived in high spirits, with even the old patriarch and the little brat Luo Ling caught in the net. As soon as Luo Li saw Qin Yue, she darted toward him. "Aha, Brother is so amazing! I thought we’d have to wait until tomorrow!" Bai Wuhuo looked at the delicacies on the table with great interest. "Hey, what kind of meat is this? Is it a type of chicken? I don’t think I’ve ever eaten this before!"
The little brat Luo Ling simply let go of the old patriarch’s neck, stretching his upper body forward to reach for the succulent fruits. "Grandpa, Gui-gui wants fruit!" The old patriarch said earnestly, "Be good, your hands are dirty. Slow down, slow down, let Grandpa wipe them for you first~ Oh, Xiao Yu, is this the Emperor? Tell him: this child is spoiled rotten. If you don't indulge him, he’ll cry and make a fuss. Quick, apologize to him on my behalf, and be sincere, alright?"

He was just about to explain this to the ignorant Emperor when Qin Yue swiftly reached out, pulled him to his side, and said coldly in Chinese, "Stay away from him. Just let him think you're a child."
Luo Yu’s mouth twitched: Was he jealous? Damn it, he was jealous over this? The guy was clearly being quite innocent toward him! But then again, there were plenty of news stories these days about perverted middle-aged men molesting young boys. Since he was so handsome, he should probably have some self-awareness. It was better to listen to his wife and keep a low profile; better safe than sorry, and it wasn't as if he hadn't been targeted before.
Kanmiluo watched Qin Yue’s protective gesture and paused, then found it secretly amusing. Could it be that he feared he would snatch his brother away? What a childish move—it was exactly like the attitude Leiteyin had toward him when they were young.
Thinking this, he couldn't help but glance
