Oh my god, I became the vicious stepmother of four villains

"Prince Qing, I know you wanted to target me today, and you were just blaming me. This young man just took on your anger, so you didn't take it out on me. But I can tell you now, if you have anything to say, just come to me. There is no need to involve other insignificant people. What do you want to do? I, Lu Haoran, will accompany you to the end."

Lu Haoran stood there very manly.

He was originally heartbroken when Xiao Se disappeared, fearing that his little cousin would lose his life. It was all his fault that he was too cowardly and couldn't save him. But he didn't expect that because of this new companion, his little cousin actually got a glimmer of hope from the decision. How could he not be grateful to Lu Haoran?

"Whether you want to fight with words or with fists, I am happy to accompany you."

This was equivalent to directly challenging Prince Qing. Prince Qing was not angry, but thinking of Lu Haoran's punch just now, he was still a little scared.

"Hmph, remember your oath." After saying that, he left without lingering around Lu Haoran.

Lu Haoran walked over and helped Lu Jiaqi up, and then the eldest grandson of the emperor immediately said to the palace servant beside him, "Go and call the imperial physician immediately, quickly."

After receiving the order, the palace servant quickly ran to the Imperial Hospital to invite a white-haired imperial physician. The imperial physician was dragged here by the palace servant. Because he was old and ran in a hurry, his whole face was very red from running, his head and face were covered in sweat, and he was still breathing hard.

"Who is... injured?" Lu Haoran pulled the doctor to Lu Jiaqi's side. The old doctor raised his sleeve to wipe the sweat off his face. He placed his fingers on Lu Jiaqi's wrist, took a look at it quietly, and then let go after a while.

"It seems that this student was frightened and fainted." As he said this, he pinched Lu Jiaqi's philtrum with his fingernails. After a while, Lu Jiaqi woke up slowly. The old doctor left some calming medicine and left in a hurry.

"Cousin, it's Mr. Lu who saved you just now. You must repay him well." Xiao Xiaose immediately introduced Lu Jiaqi to him. Lu Jiaqi knew that it was Lu Haoran who saved him, so he immediately stood up and wanted to bow to Lu Haoran. However, because he had just woken up, his body was still a little weak, and he staggered when he stood up, as if he was going to faint in the next second.

"No need. We are bed-mates and should help each other. Besides, I have implicated you because of what happened today. Prince Qing wanted to cause trouble for me and show me his power, but he didn't expect to implicate you. I am really sorry." Lu Haoran took the initiative to apologize to Lu Jiaqi.

"Actually, there's nothing to be sorry about. I'm just a transparent character here. I'm just unlucky today. But I heard that this cake was made by your mother. If possible, can you bring me some other cakes to try tomorrow?"

That Lu Jiaqi didn't care at all that he was implicated by Lu Haoran, instead he asked Lu Haoran for some pastries.

Lu Haoran was stunned for a moment and then nodded. "If you like it, I'll bring it to you tomorrow."

"Your pastries are delicious. Bring me some more."

"okay."

Because of some accidents that happened just now, their meals had become cold, but the weather was still cold, so they did not eat the cold meals. Instead, they picked up some pastries, ate them to fill their stomachs, and then went to the afternoon class.

After school in the afternoon, Lu Haoran was picked up by a carriage sent by Lu Ziren, but the emperor's eldest grandson insisted on sending Lu Haoran out of the palace. He was afraid that Prince Qing would secretly trip Lu Haoran up.

The eldest grandson of the emperor personally escorted Lu Haoran out, thus eliminating the potential danger.

Lu Haoran is still growing. He spent the whole afternoon studying and his mental and physical energy was consumed very quickly. He soon felt hungry. There were some pastries made in the kitchen on the carriage, so Lu Haoran got in and started eating without stopping.

The food in Lu Ziren's house has been prepared.

As soon as Lu Haoran got back, he started eating.

Because he didn't eat too much for lunch, Lu Haoran ate very quickly at the table. Xia Yingying looked at Lu Haoran's eating movements in a daze. Did Lu Haoran not eat enough in the palace?

"Is it that the food in the palace doesn't suit your taste? Otherwise, I will send someone to deliver the food to the palace after the food is prepared in the mansion."

Xia Yingying asked Lu Haoran this, and Lu Haoran shook his head while eating.

"Mom, it's okay. It's just that today is the first day I didn't have home-cooked meals, and I miss it a little."

The emperor's eldest grandson invited Lu Haoran to have dinner with him, but Lu Haoran refused and insisted on going home to eat.

Lu Haoran was talking, but he did not slow down his eating speed. After a while, Lu Haoran was full. The family took a walk to digest the food and then returned to the room.

Xia Yingying and Lu Ziren also slowly returned to their room, but Xia Yingying was very worried. She was worried that Lu Haoran had suffered some injustice in the Imperial College, but she didn't want to add to her and Lu Ziren's troubles, so she kept it to herself.

"Tell me, did Haoran have an argument with his classmates in the palace? He didn't eat today. You see, Haoran doesn't usually eat that much, but he ate so much today."

After hearing what Xia Yingying said, Lu Ziren frowned and for a moment he was a little jealous of Lu Haoran.

Xia Yingying cared about Lu Haoran's meals, but she didn't care whether he was full. Besides, Lu Haoran was an old boy who could stand on his own and didn't need Xia Yingying to worry about him all the time.

"It's better for him to solve some things independently. The person I sent to be with him said that they did have a little dispute with the Sixth Prince's son when school started today, but Haoran has solved it now. You can rest assured that he has grown up and is a real man."

"But he is still a minor and not a real man yet. As their parents, we should provide them with some help. Can we just sit back and do nothing?" Xia Yingying strongly disagreed with Lu Ziren's words.

"Children have their own destiny. I grew up this way over the years, and I didn't grow up crooked. Why can I do it but Lu Haoran can't?" Lu Ziren's tone couldn't help but become anxious.

"I...but you had no choice at that time, but now Lu Haoran has the conditions to provide him with corresponding protection, so that we can fulfill our responsibilities as his parents."

Xia Yingying glanced at Lu Ziren and couldn't help but say this to Lu Ziren. Is Lu Ziren arguing with her?

"No more talking. I have to take Haojie to school tomorrow. I need to go to bed early."

Xia Yingying had a small conflict with Lu Ziren for the first time. She didn't understand Lu Haoran's situation and why Lu Ziren was like a barrel of explosives that exploded at any time.

"I'm going to the study." Lu Ziren had just lost his temper, as if he couldn't control himself. He was going to the study to calm down.

After Xia Yingying finished washing up, she lay down on the bed, and this time Xia Yingying put Lu Yurou in the middle of the bed.

Now that she had a conflict with Lu Ziren, Xia Yingying didn't know how to face Lu Ziren for a moment.

Lu Yurou became a shield. At least with Lu Yurou around, she wouldn't feel embarrassed.

After Lu Ziren calmed down, he returned to his room, washed up and prepared to go to bed. He saw Lu Yurou lying between them, like a 38th parallel that would always separate them. The two of them were incompatible, and Lu Ziren's heart sank.

Xia Yingying closed her eyes, and although she looked like she was asleep, she was not.

"Yingying, I was wrong just now. I shouldn't have lost my temper with you." Lu Ziren was wrong. What he said just now was purely out of jealousy of Lu Haoran. He was jealous that Lu Haoran could get Xia Yingying's love and care, while he didn't.

The words came out of his mouth as if they were not controlled by his brain.

He didn't want to hurt Xia Yingying either.

Xia Yingying still had her eyes closed and her body facing the wall.

"Yingying, can you forgive me?" "Please vote"
