His Rui

In the end, Zhao Zhang Wei understood that Xi Ying was already in the restaurant.

He looked around at the other tables and couldn't help but frown thinking that this meeting was going to be in between so many people.

How could they discuss such important things in the open!

However, he didn't seem to find Xi Ying among so many people. Confused, Zhao Zhang Wei again turned to look in the direction where the shadow guard was standing.

He was still standing there and staring at him.

It was only when the shadow guard moved his eyes towards the stairs, Zhao Zhang Wei seemed to have realized something but he still had his doubts.

Putting aside his doubts, he walked towards the stairs. However, after a few steps, he felt that someone was following him so he turned around to look at that person with a frown.

"Stop following Benwang. Go and do your work."

He said to the steward who was following him and then walked towards the stairs.

The steward sighed and then turned around to do other works.

On the other hand, Zhao Zhang Wei stopped outside the first private room that was on his way. He opened the door and was a little startled to see three people inside the room.

Confused he was about to close the door when his phoenix eyes caught those cold and indifferent black eyes.

There was no way that he could not recognize Xi Ying now.

His emotionless gaze then moved to the two other persons inside the room.

It was a young man and …a child.

At this moment, Zhao Zhang Wei suddenly wanted to know what exactly Xi Ying was thinking while stepping out of Xi Manor.

However, his trance was broken by Xi Ying's indifferent but calm voice.

"Please come inside, Your Highness. It is your own place."

Xi Ying said with a not so polite smile on his lips. Zhao Zhang Wei suppressed the urge to roll his eyes or scoff and finally stepped inside the room.

Li Rui, on the other hand, was now looking at this new presence inside the room. Her eyes and face were very calm but her heart was full of questions.

Seeing that Xi Ying looks so calm and not surprised, she concluded that he knew that Zhao Zhang Wei was going to come here.

Is that why they were here?

Towards Zhao Zhang Wei, Li Rui didn't have much of a good expression. In her eyes, this man was her elder Sister's husband and her elder sister has never been happy in that Imperial Palace.

So she didn't think of Zhao Zhang Wei as any good person. Unconsciously, Li Rui's eyes gained the calmness and indifference that she used to have in the presence of people she didn't know very well.

Xi Ying, of course, felt the change in Li Rui's behavior.

A sudden panic filled his heart as he thought that she was doubting him again. He didn't want the previous incidents to occur and that was the only reason he wanted this meeting to occur in her presence.

He didn't want her to distrust him even for a moment. That was not how he could have a stable relationship with her.

Xi Ying's hand moved to hold Li Rui's hand under the table.

When she looked towards him with the same pair of calm and indifferent eyes, he said immediately

"I will explain everything to you."

It was only when Li Rui smiled at him softly and nodded her head in understanding, did Xi Ying sigh in relief.

Xi Ling was sensible enough not to speak anything and sit obediently when he saw a stranger inside the room. His big black eyes however stared at Zhao Zhang Wei curiously as he walked towards their table.

Zhao Zhang Wei again roamed his eye at the three people inside the room when he was near the table and then he suddenly heard Xi Ying saying to him.

"This Lord hopes that Your Highness can make some sitting arrangements for himself inside this room."

Zhao Zhang Wei didn't feel offended by Xi Ying's words.

Just at this moment, an old servant knocked on the door of the private room and stepped inside with a few dishes.

Zhao Zhang Wei looked towards the child sitting beside the young man. He suddenly remembered that Xi Ying seemed to have a child as well. However, Did this child belong to Xi Ying?

He was not very sure when he saw the child's black face.

His eyes flickered and he asked the servant to arrange another table and chair inside the room. The servant of course recognized him as the owner of the restaurant and immediately left the room to make arrangements.

The room was large and could easily fit another table and tow chairs around this table.

It was steward who came to the private room himself and made all these arrangements. He sneaked a few glances towards the three people inside the room curious to know how come the prince suddenly wanted to sit with these people.

However, by these few glances, he couldn't find anything out and after making all the arrangements he had to leave the room too.

After the door was closed again, Zhao Zhang Wei stood in front of Xi Ying's table again and looked at him silently.

He was not going to discuss all the scheming and plans in front of an innocent child.

Xi Ying, of course, understood what Zhao Zhang Wei meant to say indirectly. He too didn't want his son to know of all these things at such a young age so he asked Xi Ling to go and sit at the other table.

Xi Ling pouted for a moment but then sensibly got down from the chair.

He knew that adults needed to talk and he was not an adult yet so he couldn't hear their talks. His father had told him very well this thing quite a few times in the past.

So the small bun walked towards the other table.

Xi Ying and Li Rui's eyes were on him only until this moment.

Knowing very well that he would not be able to sit on the chair by himself with his short legs, Xi Ying stood up and helped his son.

Zhao Zhang Wei raised his eyebrows and he was very sure now that the young child was Xi Ying's son.

His eyes then went to the young man who had accompanied Xi Ying. He was currently picking a few dishes and serving them on a plate.

Zhao Zhang Wei's eyes however paused on the young man's hands. Such beautiful and soft hands could not belong to a shadow guard or a martial artist.

With the dishes filled plate, the young man walked towards the table with the plate in his hands and put it in front of the child.

The small bun had been hungry for a while and was very happy to see the food.

He smiled brightly towards his mother and picked a spoon from the table to fill his small stomach.

Li Rui glanced towards the other chair beside Xi Ling. She thought that it was meant for her.

However, when she had just taken a step towards the chair, her hand was held by someone.

"Where are you going?"

Xi Ying asked his wife who was looking towards the chair in response. He sighed and then dragged her towards another table.

Pushing Li Rui to sit on one of the chairs, he bent down to whisper in her ear with his hands still on her shoulders

"You are supposed to sit here…with me."
