Chapter 70th minute, and Qi Wang is still showing off his daughter.
"This is that brat, well-behaved," someone commented, "3-3."
Qi Wang paid little attention to the young master Ren Zinan's keeping of concubines. This was too common for people of their stature.
At first, when SuSu mentioned Ren Zinan, Qi Wang glanced in the direction the child was pointing at. The game between Charlotte FC and New York FC had captured the attention with their spirited display.
Qi Wang furrowed his brows upon recognizing Ren Zinan.
Then, he heard SuSu's second statement.
"Are they co-raising a concubine? Are they treating her like a commodity? Damn, they're even considering sharing her!"
If it had been another young master, Qi Wang might have brushed it off with some gossip.
Feng Xuanrui vs Toronto FC
"The highly anticipated match-up between Feng Xuanrui and Toronto FC."
Xuanrui knew they weren't co-raising one. But, was he being considerate? Or was he smearing Ren Zinan's reputation further?
Feng Xuanrui, with eyes spinning, deflected attention towards Ren Zinan, adding fuel to the fire: "Yes, that's right. They discussed her waist and softness, openly too!"
Qi Wang's eyes reddened with rage.
Now, with added context, his fury burns brighter than the sun.
"They indeed wish to die!"
After seeing SuSu, everyone started pulling out little gifts they had prepared in advance from their sleeves.
They weren't particularly expensive, but they were the kind of trinkets that children adore.
SuSu had been exposed to many fine things lately.
Moreover, as a child, her understanding of wealth was still limited.
If they were just ordinary jade and jewels, they might not capture SuSu's attention for too long.
However, everyone had put some thought into these gifts.
Various intriguing little trinkets, fascinating to look at, were sure to delight a child.
SuSu was thoroughly entertained, looking at this and that, her eyes nearly not enough to take it all in.
When everyone else had dispersed, only Qi Wang, Qing Wang, and the two brothers remained. Qi Wang asked in a soft voice, "My good girl, do you like these?"
SuSu nodded obediently, "I like them!"
Feeling that this response wasn't enough, she quickly nodded again, emphasizing, "I like them a lot! Thank you, Father."
After speaking, she glanced at Qing Wang, who was still by her side, and added softly, "Thank you, Uncle Qing Wang."
Qi Wang's eyes narrowed with joy, and even Qing Wang's usually stern expression softened as he gently patted SuSu's adorable little hat, "As long as SuSu likes them."
With Qi Wang showing off his daughter so proudly, everyone naturally understood that the new little county princess of the Qi Wang Manor was exceptionally favored.
Thinking about Qi Wang's desperate desire for a daughter over the years, they could somewhat empathize with his feelings.
Of course, some people also noticed SuSu's round eyes, which resembled Feng Xuanrui's, and secretly speculated: "Could she be the king's child born to a concubine and only now recognized as his own?"
Since no one brought it up, they could only guess, but they wouldn't dare to voice their thoughts in front of the royal family.
So, some people exchanged glances, understanding each other's thoughts, but no one dared to speak.
Even if they did discuss it, it would be far away from the Qi Wang Manor.
In the afternoon, the banquet concluded, and the ladies in the back garden went to watch a play.
The men in the front yard started drinking games and other such activities.
Everyone sought their own entertainment and didn't rush to end the banquet just yet.
Initially, Qi Wangfei was worried about SuSu, but once she knew that the king had taken her away, she felt relieved.
Being carried by the king sent a clear signal to the outside world.
Even though everyone knew that Qi Wang yearned for a daughter,
the depth of his affection for this daughter needed to be demonstrated through actions for others to understand SuSu's precious status in the manor.
Now that the king had taken her, Qi Wangfei felt at ease.
She thought about the news Autumn Auntie had brought back and glanced at Ren Zifei, who was talking to someone. A frown appeared between her brows.
That Ren family's Nan Ge...
He was truly a source of trouble!
Qi Wangfei feared that Ren Zifei wouldn't be able to control her temper today and would directly take action.
However, it was clear that the king disapproved of Ren Zinan's despicable behavior, and she anticipated that Ren Zifei's slap would land on his face today.
Qi Wangfei was in a dilemma.
She didn't want any unexpected incidents to occur during today's banquet.
So, regarding the matter of teaching someone a lesson...
It would be better to wait a while longer.
As Qi Wangfei was thinking, Autumn Auntie hurried over with quick steps.
Her expression seemed unchanged from usual, but Qi Wangfei had been with her for many years, and she believed she understood this auntie by her side.
Autumn Auntie's body was tense, and her steps were hurried. Qi Wangfei's brows furrowed as she felt that something might be about to happen.
