Chapter 393: 392 Goddess Sister, your brother is really good to you (second update)

Yelu Yan laughed, "Next time, I insist on getting you dirty."

Li Xianyun playfully hit his firm chest, "You’re the most annoying."

Yelu Yan let out a light chuckle, continuing the conversation from before.

"I cleaned thoroughly just now, wiped both the chair and the floor clean. Later, I’ll throw away the handkerchief, lock up the house, and by overnight, any scent will also be gone."

"Hmm, that’s the only way," Li Xianyun said tenderly, nestled in Yelu Yan’s embrace.

Yelu Yan, with his arms around Li Xianyun’s waist, walked out, and the maids and guards in the courtyard all knelt to pay their respects.

"Rise," Yelu Yan commanded in a calm voice.

He was serious and dignified, restrained and ascetic, nothing like the man who had been insatiable just moments before.

Youlan stepped forward, saluting, "Reporting to the Princess Consort, those children have been clamoring to see you."

"Alright, I’ll go take a look," she responded.

Li Xianyun said, looking toward Yelu Yan.

Yelu Yan laughed, "Wherever you go, I will follow, don’t even think about sending me away."

Li Xianyun pursed her lips with a smile, remaining silent.

To reassure Li Xianyun, Yelu Yan turned back to personally lock the door and, with his arm around her, headed towards the second courtyard.

Li Xianyun looked up at the tall and handsome man beside her, "Husband, have those traffickers confessed yet?"

Yelu Yan always took her matters very seriously, assigning so many people to protect her, naturally, he would not let those with malicious intentions get away.

As expected, Yelu Yan hummed in agreement, lifting his hand to gently ruffle her hair.

"Don’t worry, I’ve already sent people to inform the parents of those children overnight, they should arrive by morning."

"That’s great."

The five children were settled in a room in the second courtyard, with a large bed that was enough for them all to sleep together.

Reaching the door, Li Xianyun took her hand from her waist.

Yelu Yan complained, "Why won’t you let me hold you? Are you crossing the river and tearing down the bridge, turning your face and not recognizing people now?"

This man was always good at teasing her.

"You need to behave, don’t set a bad example for the children," she said in a low voice before stepping inside.

The five children, whom Youlan had settled onto the bed, were not sleepy at all and were lying there chatting.

"Will Goddess Sister forget about us?"

"How could she? Goddess Sister is the best, she wouldn’t forget us."

"Sister Youlan already told us, didn’t she? Goddess Sister is a Divine Doctor, with many patients waiting for her help."

"I want to be like Goddess Sister when I grow up, treating and saving people."

A child glanced unintentionally towards the doorway and, spotting Li Xianyun, exclaimed with surprise, "Look quickly, Goddess Sister is here!!"

Hearing this, the other children looked over, their eyes shining brightly. They scrambled up from the bed and gathered around Li Xianyun, smiling.

"Goddess Sister."

"Goddess Sister, you’ve come?"

The little girl, only four or five years old, tugged at Li Xianyun’s clothes and asked, "Goddess Sister, when will my parents come to pick us up?"

Children always miss their parents at night.

Li Xianyun squatted down, embracing the little girl, and pointing to Yelu Yan, who looked infatuated, she laughed, "This uncle here has already sent people to pick up your families. I believe they will come for you very soon."

The five children then turned their gaze to Yelu Yan, who was not far away.

He was gazing affectionately at Li Xianyun and, suddenly being pointed out, he composed his enamored expression and cleared his throat.

"Thank you, Uncle," the children said sweetly with smiles.

Yelu Yan quickly sensed the teasing and glanced at Li Xianyun, who seemed to be itching for a playful fight.

He walked over and squatted beside her, wrapping his arm around her waist.

Yelu Yan was indeed very tall, even when squatting he stood taller than the tallest child there.

He curled up a smile at the corner of his mouth and said to the children, "I am the husband of Goddess Sister; isn’t it inappropriate for you to call me uncle?"

The little girl responded quickly, "Thank you, brother."

The other children followed suit and began to call him the same.

Yelu Yan glanced at Li Xianyun, raising his eyebrows slightly with a complacent expression.

A man who is always nitpicking.

Li Xianyun looked at the five children and said, "It’s getting late; you should all go to bed."

The five children finally saw Li Xianyun and obediently went to bed.

The little girl asked, "Sister Goddess, are you leaving?"

Her tender little face was full of reluctance.

She was adorable with her soft and cuddly appearance.

Li Xianyun’s heart softened, "Sister will stay with you while you sleep, and after you fall asleep, sister will leave, okay?"

"Okay."

Yelu Yan watched Li Xianyun with her calm and gentle demeanor, his smile growing more profound, already envisioning how tender and virtuous she would be after they had their own children.

But when it came to children, it was all up to Li Xianyun. If Li Xianyun wanted to have children, they would; if not, then they wouldn’t.

She was young and had her life to live; he couldn’t selfishly bind her with children.

As the children spoke, they actually made room for her.

Li Xianyun paused for a moment, then prepared to take off her shoes and lie down.

But a hulking figure crouched down and gently removed her shoes for her.

A child said, "Sister Goddess, your brother is really good to you."

After Yelu Yan had taken off her shoes and placed Li Xianyun’s legs on the bed, he looked at the speaking child, "Brother is so good to your Goddess Sister, yet your Goddess Sister often bullies brother; should you not take her to task?"

"When have I?" said Li Xianyun as she kicked Yelu Yan’s hand with her foot.

Yelu Yan laughed, "See? She’s bullying brother even in front of you."

The youngest girl said, "Sister Goddess, your brother is really pitiful; please don’t bully him."

Li Xianyun smiled awkwardly, "Hmm," and gave Yelu Yan a sidelong glance.

Yelu Yan, with a smile in his eyes, sat down on a Taishi Chair nearby, keeping her company.

Li Xianyun lay down and said, "Close your eyes and sleep."

Once the five children closed their eyes, Li Xianyun involuntarily began to hum the lullaby she used to sing to Junjun and Nannan to sleep.

Yelu Yan was hearing Li Xianyun hum for the first time. Her voice was clear and pleasant, eliciting a sense of joy in the listener.

The Hidden Guards had reported upon investigating Li Xianyun in Houtang that she had a melodious voice and elegant dance moves, standing out among the noble ladies.

Li Xianyun once danced in the Capital City, captivating many noble young masters.

But with Murong Ce and Li Yumin around, no one dared to approach Li Xianyun.

Yelu Yan was eager to see her dance, which must have been enchanting.

The five children, who hadn’t slept well for several days since being captured, now felt secure with the omnipotent Goddess Sister by their side and the knowledge that they would soon see their parents. They fell asleep quickly.

Yelu Yan walked over to the bed, looked at the five children, then at Li Xianyun, and whispered with a laugh, "They’re asleep."

"Hmm."

Li Xianyun reached out her delicate arms to Yelu Yan.

Yelu Yan bent down to embrace her, lifting her up and said, "Oh, my darling."

He tightened his arms around her, then let go slightly, crouched down to put on her shoes, and picked her up horizontally.

"Are you very hungry? Let me take you to have something tasty," he said.

Li Xianyun gave him a sidelong glance, wrapping her arms around his neck and burying her face in his neck with a soft grunt, "It’s all your fault, isn’t it?"

Yelu Yan turned his head and pecked her ear and neck, "Alright, alright, it’s all my fault."

Everyone in the palace knew that Yelu Yan often carried her here and there, so Li Xianyun did not avoid it anymore.
