Ch. 37 'As One Family'

Princess Xiao Yue sprinted towards the king and loudly called the king.

"Father!"

The king, who saw his daughter running towards him, smiled broadly and opened his hands' side to side. As soon as his daughter was near him, the king immediately embraced her and held her up high.

"How is my dear baby princess?"

"Yue'er missed father."

"Me too, my little angel. I have a gift for you."

Then the king called one of his guards to bring a gift that he had prepared for his daughter in advance.

Xiao Yue's eyes sparkled brilliantly when she saw a rabbit doll that was as tall as her body with a snowy white fur.

Xiao Yue immediately asked to come down as she wanted to hold the doll that instance.

When Xiao Yue brought the tall doll, Xiao Yue's face and body were utterly invisible except that her two small hands wrapped around the rabbit doll's body, and two little feet were barely visible.

"Ah, Yue' er. Yue'er" came the sound of Crown Prince Xiao Yang. "Where are you? Why did you suddenly disappear?"

Prince Xiao Yang knew precisely that his younger sister was behind the doll, but deliberately pretended he did not know only to tease his sister again.

The shameless crown prince of Nishian loved teasing his baby girl. "Wow, since when did my sister had the ability to be invisible?"

"Phap phap ..." Xiao Yue tried to call 'brother,' but because the rabbit doll covered her mouth, her speech was unclear.

"Father, mother ... did you hear a strange noise?" Xiao Yang teased again. "Ouch ..." once again, he got hit by his mother.

"Stop it already, hurry up and help your sister."

"Bringing the doll? It looks like Yue'er will be afraid if I will take the doll. Even though I might not have taken it."

"I want to bring it myself." Said a small voice from near them. It turned out that Xiao Yue had tilted her head and was right next to the rabbit doll's head that she was still holding.

It looked like there were two rabbit dolls as the young princess's hairstyle was similar to the rabbit ears, and her figure was also identical with the rabbit doll with a snowy white royal dress. It was cute and adorable, seeing the young princess's gesture.

Noticing the condition of Princess Xiao Yue, the king and queen, not to mention the crown prince burst out laughing. Even the guards who were there closed their mouths tightly while trying to hold back laughter.

The poor princess could only pout and pursed her lips like a fish's lips, making the king cough a few times, trying to calm down his laughter.

The king surely did not want to make the princess angry at him. Or else, the baby princess wouldn't want to talk to him for a week—typical punishment from the cute, adorable princess.

"Alright, let's take a short walk before we return to the palace."

They all agreed with that suggestion.

It had become a daily routine. The royal family would go out of the palace to converse with the people once a week.

They were eating together, doing activities together as a family did. The royal family lived like ordinary people and did not mind their different ranks.

For the king, all the people who live on the island were his family. And for the people there, the king was the figure of a father, brother, and friend.

That was the reason why the kingdom was very peaceful. There has never been any fight nor crimes. Usually, the criminal ended up in jail, but they forgave them with a big heart as a family. They all lived in peace and harmony.

Unknown to them, their peaceful life would be change later at night.
