The young couple was thrilled when they saw their daughter smiling back at them. Lan Roubing could not help but smile when she saw how happy her parents were in this life.
Lan Ruobing did not enjoy family love as much in her previous, more modern world. Therefore, she brought her previous life’s memories to this one. She felt her parents loved her, so she loved them very much and smiled at them.
The young couple liked her smile and wanted Lan Ruobing to smile more. The woman hugged her daughter and smiled even more brightly. “My dear daughter, you’re so adorable when you smile.”
The woman was delighted and could not help but kiss her daughter’s cheek. The man wanted to do the same because he thought her cheeks were soft and cute.
However, the woman said to him, “You must be careful. You haven’t shaved yet, so you could hurt her cheeks.”
The man looked at his wife resentfully and said, “Hey, your attitude toward me has changed since your daughter arrived.”
“Well, that’s because our daughter is number one,” the woman said teasingly. That was not something the man could refute.
“Yeah, yeah. Our daughter is number one.” The man revealed a smile full of fatherly love when he looked at his daughter. He held her hand, saying,
“Ruobing, I’m going to war soon. I’ll bring you some nice things when I return.
You must listen to your mother obediently, okay?”
Although he knew his daughter could not understand him, he still wanted to talk to her for a while longer.
Lan Ruobing nodded at the man, even though she was still a baby. ‘This is my father. He and my mother look like they have a perfect relationship. I can feel their warmth.’
That was why she liked her family more in this life.
She tried her best to respond to her new parents. Furthermore, her father was going to a dangerous war, and Lan Ruobing was concerned about his safety.
He saw his daughter nod, and his eyes widened in shock. He thought he was hallucinating. “Suwan, look! She nodded at me!”
The man was excited at that moment, while his wife was surprised. They realized their baby daughter could understand what they were saying, which was miraculous.
The woman also saw her daughter nodding. She looked at the baby gently and asked, “Can you understand what we’re saying, my dear?”
Lan Ruobing underwood them, but she wondered if she should nod. She frowned and thought at that moment, making the woman and the man laugh. The young couple understood that their daughter was born intelligent and should be able to understand them.
It made them excited.
“Suwan, do you think she’s related to your Bing clan? That might be why she’s so smart,” the man whispered to his wife, “Is she the chosen one?”
The man’s expression became solemn when he said this, and there was a look of worry on his face. After all, he only wanted his daughter to live happily.
The woman’s smile disappeared when she heard her husband’s words as worry filled her eyes. After a while, she said thoughtfully, “Even if she were the chosen one, we must protect her.
“Don’t let others know about this. I just want Ruobing to grow up happily. We’ll protect Ruobing. She just needs to be carefree and cheerful.”
“Yes, we’ll protect her with our life,” the man said firmly, “Even Ruozhu. Since he’s the older of the twins, we must teach him to protect his younger sister.”
The infant boy was lying in the crib, sleeping soundly. He did not know what his parents were thinking or talking about.
‘Ruozhu? My brother?’ Lan Ruobing wondered if she still had brothers. Then she followed her parents’ gazes and saw another baby in the crib.
‘Is that my twin brother?’ She liked her family in this life and would protect them. Although she had the memories of two lifetimes, she was still a baby and would quickly get sleepy.
After a while, she felt tired and fell asleep in the woman’s arms. Lan Ruobing felt safe, even when she was asleep.
‘Is this what maternal love feels like? It feels warm and comfortable in my mother’s arms.’
Bing Suwan looked at her daughter with maternal love. She hugged Lan Ruobing and could not bear to put her down.
In a blink of an eye, Su Binglan began living as Lan Ruobing in a deceased royal’s mansion in this lifetime. They called that place Ding Wang’s Mansion because Ding Wang meant deceased royal.
After living in the mansion and occasionally listening to her mother and servants speak, she learned about her current status. She was Princess Lan of the mansion, who had a twin brother named Lan Ruozhu.
Her father was the king named Lan Xiyao, and her mother was Bing Suwan. That day, she recalled her parents talking about the Bing clan and thought her mother might be one of them.
However, Lan Ruobing knew nothing about the Bing Clan, as no one had mentioned it before. She wanted to know many things when she grew up.
Furthermore, the ancestors of King Lan Xiyao’s mansion had fought alongside the founding emperor of Chu Country. Thus, King Lan Xiyao had a high status and held a portion of military power.
He often went to the battlefield to protect the country, so Lan Ruobing never saw her father again after meeting him that day. She knew her father had gone to war to guard the border.
Since several countries were on the continent now, wars would occasionally happen. However, the generals of Chu Country were too powerful, and their enemies could not invade Chu Country’s territory.
She knew her father, the Wei family, and General Baili were powerful because the servant girls serving her would usually get bored and discuss such things during their free time.
She also knew King Lan Xiyao and the people of his mansion held a high prestige in the hearts of commoners.
After learning about these things, Lan Ruobing could not help but feel worried. After all, emperors had always been wary that their ministers would overshadow their masters since ancient times.
However, the residents of the deceased royal’s mansion fought alongside the founding emperor long ago, and that emperor promised them the military power they possessed. Therefore, none could change it.
Lan Ruobing hoped she would grow up quickly to protect her family, her mother, and the rest of the deceased royal’s residents. After all, she felt a lot of warmth from them in this life.
Her days as a baby were dull, as she could not move or walk independently. Still, her mother would hug and talk to her daily. Bing Suwan knew her daughter was intelligent and seemed to be able to understand her, so she talked as much as possible to her daughter.
Lan Robing would listen attentively, but her body was weak and needed
constant rest. She often slept and shared a crib with her twin brother.
Meanwhile, Lan Ruozhu was a quiet child. He did not cry or make a fuss but sometimes woke up and looked at her smilingly. Lan Ruobing thought her twin brother was handsome and even more good-looking than the paintings she had made for the New Year.
Whenever she got bored, she would look at her brother because he was pleasing to her eyes. She often touched him with her tiny hand, and he would giggle and seem pretty happy whenever she did..
