Chapter 2688: The Princess’s Story

"Alright. Since your mommy is pregnant now, we will definitely visit often."

"Why don’t you and grandma just move to A City?" Ansel suggested.

Now that Nangong Xu is dead, they don’t need to hide anymore, right?

Nangong Ruyue smiled without saying anything, not directly answering his question.

She wasn’t in a hurry to move to A City.

Perhaps Leshan was better suited to live in D City, in a place without the Ruan Family, where he could carve out his own world.

Anyway, the two cities aren’t far apart, and she can visit anytime she wants.

However, she might consider buying a house in A City for the convenience of visiting anytime.

After seeing Xiao Zexin and the others off, the Ruan Family returned to its peaceful state.

...

Ansel took a storybook and went upstairs to knock on Jian Yufei’s door.

"Mommy, I’m here to read a story to my sister."

The little guy obediently walked to the bedside, his eyes bright as he looked at Jian Yufei’s belly.

The Ruan Family, both young and old, unanimously believed the child in her belly was a girl.

Strangely, she also thought so.

"What story are you going to read today?" Jian Yufei asked him with a smile.

Ansel climbed onto the bed and sat at the edge: "The story of ’Thumbelina’."

"That’s a good one, go ahead and read it."

Just as Ansel was about to start reading, Junqi also pushed the door open and came in.

"Junqi, come and sit down. Brother is going to read a story to our sister, and you can listen too." Ansel waved to him.

Junqi climbed onto the bed and still curiously reached out to touch Jian Yufei’s belly.

Mom had told him that he and his brother both came out of her belly.

Before long, another sister would come out from her belly too.

He was really curious about what his sister would look like.

Jian Yufei lovingly patted his head, then pulled him closer to her.

Junqi obediently snuggled into her arms, and Ansel, unwilling to be left out, also leaned close to her.

Jian Yufei held one in each arm.

Ansel opened the storybook: "Mommy, I’m going to start."

"Mm, go ahead."

The little guy began in a clear, childish voice: "Once upon a time, there was a woman who really wanted a very tiny child.

However, she didn’t know where to get one, so she went to consult a witch.

She said to the witch: I really want a tiny child! Can you tell me where I can get one..."

This wasn’t the first time Ansel read stories to the child in Jian Yufei’s belly.

He had read several stories.

Including "The Princess and the Pea," "Snow White," "Rapunzel," and "Twelve Dancing Princesses"...

All the stories he read were about princesses.

Jian Yufei had no doubt that any story with the word ’princess’ in it, he would read to the child in her belly.

Outside the door, Ruan Tianling heard Ansel’s voice, smiled, and walked in too.

Ansel noticed him but didn’t stop.

"She was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen in his life.

So the prince took the golden crown from his head and placed it on hers...

In the end, Thumbelina became the queen of all the flowers...

The flower angel said to her: You shouldn’t be called Thumbelina anymore, that’s an ugly name, and you’re so beautiful! From now on, we’ll call you Maya."

By this point, the story was basically over.

Ansel looked up and asked Ruan Tianling: "Daddy, what is Maya?"

Ruan Tianling walked over and sat down: "Maya is a princess from Greek mythology, and a very beautiful one at that."
