Lin Wei was a little scared yet slightly excited. With that, Lin Feilu grabbed her hand and put it on Chang Er’s head and touched it. Chang Er had just taken a bath so its fur was clean and fluffy, which was why it felt pretty good to the touch. Lin Wei glanced at her elder sister who was eagerly smiling at her as she boldly touched Chang Er’s head.

Chang Er was trained to be well-behaved by Lin Feilu as it never bit nor barked. Being touched by a soft little hand, it turned around and stuck its tongue out into the little baby’s palm.

Lin Wei laughed as she was licked by the puppy.

Lin Feilu took Duan Er and Bunny out to play with her for a while. The little baby was coaxed into obedience by the animals and even forgot about playing hide-and-seek with her sister.

After a while, Lin Zhanyuan, who woke up from a nap, also came out. Suddenly, he saw a little baby in the yard and stared at her blankly for a while.

Lin Feilu introduced the two of them to each other in a friendly manner.

Lin Wei couldn’t call out the word ‘brother’, so her honorific term sounded a bit more like ‘guo guo'(3). Lin Zhanyuan was still very happy that he had another little sister.

(T/N: Brother in chinese is read as ‘ge ge’)

His IQ remained stagnant at the age of three, which was about the same age as Lin Wei was now, so their wavelengths were also on the same frequency with each other. The two of them had no trouble talking to each other— their communication was perhaps even smoother than when he conversed along with Lin Feilu.

After all, as an adult, Lin Feilu sometimes couldn’t understand much of what Lin Zhanyuan was trying to say…

In this aspect, Lin Wei was obviously better than her.

She had a lot of fun with Lin Zhanyuan.

There were very few children in the palace. The current youngest was the Seventh Prince from the Concubine— Beauty Li’s son, who was only recently born. He was still only one years old and was still unable to speak.

This made Lin Wei hold the position as the second-youngest. Her other siblings were too old for her, so Lin Wei had no playmates of the same age. Even as she played hide-and-seek, she could only do so with a maid who was a dozen years older than her. Now that she met Lin Zhanyuan, she truly gained a companion of the same age.

It wasn’t until the sun was about to go down that Xiaqing, who was waiting on the sidelines, came over and said, “Fifth Princess, this humble servant has to take the Princess back.”

When the little baby heard this, she hugged Lin Feilu’s leg, “I won’t go back, I won’t go back, I won’t go back! Sister, don’t make Weiwei leave!”

The Sixth Princess was having a temper and that was something that even Imperial Concubine Su couldn’t do anything about. Xiaqing immediately casted a look at the Fifth Princess, pleading with her silently to offer some assistance.

Although the Fifth Princess was only six years old this year, she was just slightly older than the child…

But no matter how Xiaqing looked at it, she was much more reliable than her own Princess!

Lin Feilu received Xiaqing’s distressed signal and touched Lin Wei’s head, “Weiwei, do you know the story of the Gatekeeper God?”

The little baby shook her head blankly, “Weiwei doesn’t know.”

Lin Feilu, “Every palace has a Gatekeeper God who only protects the people who live in that palace. Every night, monsters that eat children will sneak out to catch some stray children, but because of the Gatekeeper God, the monsters can’t get in!”

The little baby was so frightened by the phrase ‘monsters that eat children’ that her face turned pale white with fright.
