An Jing, though her heart was filled with countless reluctance, could only nod with a smile: "Mm."
For the four little ones to be best cared for, Su Chengyu arranged for them to stay in the side hall of the Jun Palace.
And that night, An Jing and Xiao Changyi stayed with the four little ones in the side hall.
An Jing and Xiao Changyi leaned against the headboard, while the four little ones lay on top of them, clinging to them.

Now, when the four heard they were about to leave on a long journey, they didn't feel overly dependent, though they still couldn't help but feel reluctant to part. They even asked when they would return.
Holding their soft little bodies close, An Jing gently said, "Once Papa and Mama have handled everything, we'll come back."
