Attack of the Adorable Kid: President Daddy’s Infinite Pampering - Chapter 1743

Chapter 1743: He’s Back

Xiao Ying had been in the palace for three days.

Every day, Long Mei would ask her to whip up some delicious food.

Long Mei had planned on luring or seducing Long Ming with delicious food, but on the first day Long Mei brought Xiao Ying into the palace, he had gone abroad without a word.

Later, Long Mei called Mo Tian and found out that he was not in the country.

Worried that Xiao Ying would be depressed, Long Mei comforted her for a while.

Xiao Ying did not mind.

However, she was still slightly worried about wasting three days like this.

On this day, Xiao Ying made delicious snacks for Long Mei as usual. Long Mei was about to eat when her phone rang.

After the call, Long Mei’s expression was gloomy.

Seeing that something was wrong with Long Mei, Xiao Ying asked, “Mei’er, what’s wrong?”

“Something happened at Mei Pavilion and I need to go back.” Long Mei looked at Xiao Ying, slightly worried. “Sister-in-law, I’m worried about you being here alone.”

Xiao Ying smiled and patted Long Mei’s hand. “It’s alright. What haven’t I experienced before? Besides, your brother probably won’t be able to recognize me with my current appearance.”

“Sister-in-law, don’t worry. I’ll come back immediately after I’m done with the matters at Mei Pavilion. If anyone in the palace bullies you, call me to let me know.”

Before Long Ming left the country, he had brought an old lady into the palace. The old lady had an adopted granddaughter by her side, whose name was Liu Yiyi. The old lady entered the palace and the girl naturally followed her too.

As soon as the girl moved in, she treated herself as a mistress in the palace. She took advantage of Long Ming’s absence to order the servants around.

She had only restrained herself after Long Mei moved in.

…

After Long Mei left the palace, Liu Yiyi once again treated herself as the mistress of the palace.

She had taken care of the granny for so many years, and was finally going to have her day.

She would never forget the man who had appeared in front of her and the old lady. He was tall and slender, with a cold expression like that of an immortal.

He had grown up and become a tall and handsome king.

Perhaps he did not remember her, but she would remember him forever.

When he was young, the old granny had saved his life. She was from the same village as the old lady. At that time, she had already felt that he was amazing. Although he was cold, he was much more attractive than children his age.

Later, something happened to her family and she had been sent to the orphanage before being adopted by a couple.

It was only after several years that she met the old granny. At that time, he was no longer by the old granny’s side. There was once the old granny was confused from her fever and had told her about his past in a daze.

As such, she had returned home and asked her adoptive parents to take in the old lady.

When she grew up and her adoptive parents passed away, she lived alone with this granny.

She had been waiting for him to find the old granny who had saved him back then.

When there is a will, there is a way. She had finally lived to see that day.

Some time ago, that man had arranged for her and the old lady to stay in the palace meant for guests. Although there were servants waiting on them, she was bent on coming to his palace.

She had been coaxing and pestering the old lady for many days before the the latter finally agreed to talk to him. She had not expected things to go so smoothly. Once the old granny said it, he asked them to move here.

With her granny around, Liu Yiyi was not at all worried that he would not treat her well.

After Long Mei left the palace, Xiao Ying continued to help around in the kitchen.

That afternoon, Liu Yiyi rushed to the kitchen. “Prepare the food properly tonight. Brother Long Ming is coming back for dinner.”

The servants in the kitchen did not dare to offend this Miss Liu. Everyone knew that she was the darling of that old granny, who was the King’s savior.

Although her tone was curt, everyone still nodded and did as she said.

Liu Yiyi saw that all the servants in the kitchen were nodding and bowing to her, except for that maid with a dark skin tone.

If she remembered correctly, this maid was Long Mei’s personal maid. Liu Yiyi disliked Long Mei very much and had scolded the latter the moment she moved back.

She was only Brother Long Ming’s cousin and not the mistress of the palace. Why was she so arrogant?

Although Liu Yiyi was angry, she could not vent it on Long Mei.

Liu Yiyi glanced at Xiao Ying and pointed at her. “You, come out for a while.”

Xiao Ying stood still.

Liu Yiyi was furious with Xiao Ying. She puffed up her cheeks and went to find the old granny.

She complained to the old lady, saying that a servant was not taking her seriously and had even bullied her.

The granny had always been soft-hearted. Seeing that Liu Yiyi had been wronged, she could only come to the kitchen.

With the granny’s support, Liu Yiyi became even more arrogant. She pointed at Xiao Ying. “Clean all the bedrooms in the afternoon. If you don’t clean it properly, you won’t be allowed to eat dinner.”

The granny looked at Liu Yiyi. “The bedrooms are so big that they can’t be cleaned in an afternoon. Yiyi, just punish her slightly.”

“No, she has to finish cleaning them.”

The granny looked at Liu Yiyi helplessly. Seeing Liu Yiyi’s insistence, she could only say to Xiao Ying, “Listen to Yiyi. Be more respectful to her next time and don’t make her angry.”

Xiao Ying took off her apron and went out of the kitchen without saying anything.

The granny was the person Long Ming respected and was most grateful to. Since she had given an order, Xiao Ying naturally had to follow her instructions.

She started to clean every bedroom seriously.

Although the palace was large, it was not too dirty with people cleaning it every day.

She started cleaning from the top floor. When she reached the third floor, Liu Yiyi was standing there.

She was munching on melon seeds, spitting the skin on the carpet on purpose.

Xiao Ying frowned and glanced at Liu Yiyi.

Liu Yiyi smiled. “Aren’t you just a servant? We’ll see who can protect you when your master isn’t around.”

Xiao Ying crouched down and picked up the melon seeds and threw them into the rubbish bin.

However, Liu Yiyi spit some more out after she had picked the rest up.

“Miss Liu, this is the palace, not some poor village. You really don’t have to expose your poor character all the time.” Xiao Ying lowered her voice and said hoarsely.

Liu Yiyi hated it when people said that she was from a poor village. In the past few years, she had been taking care of herself. Her skin was fair and she was pretty. Everyone praised her for beauty and elegance when she went out.

She had seen photos of Long Ming’s new lover online and thought that she was not much worse looking than the latter.

“I have poor character, but I can become the mistress here. You’re just a lowly servant. Do you want to be slapped for daring to talk back to your master?”

Xiao Ying rolled her eyes speechlessly.

Slap?

Did she think of herself as the master of a palace drama?

“Has the King given you a status, or has he acknowledged you as his god-sister? How can you be so shameless to treat yourself as the mistress here?”

Seeing that Xiao Ying dared to talk back, Liu Yiyi raised her hand and waved it at her face. But Xiao Ying grabbed her wrist and threw her over her shoulder.

Liu Yiyi fell so hard that her bones felt like they were about to fall apart.

The commotion here attracted the attention of the man who had walked to the second floor. He strode toward the third floor, his expression dark when he saw the scene in front of him. “What are you doing?”
