Wang Yuan stood not far from Shi Anran, and could clearly hear her mutterings, the front was indeed blurry, but behind him, he heard his own name, and in his heart he was mumbling, why is the young miss so distracted today, and so abnormal?

However, no matter how shocked he was, Wang Yuan's face did not reveal a single thing as he respectfully stood in front of her.

"I understand, I'll wait here for a while longer. Wang Yuan, if my father comes back, you must send someone to inform me." Hearing Shi Anran's words, Wang Yuan nodded, "Yes, young miss."

Receiving his guarantee, Shi Anran heaved a sigh of relief, and turned around to look at Liu Yue, "Alright, you can go back for now, there won't be anything else to do here."

Liu Yue was still a little hesitant, but when she saw the determination on her face, she Blessed her body and walked back.

Time continued to pass, but there was no movement from outside. Shi Anran could only force herself to remain calm.

"Eldest Miss, Master is back." Suddenly, a knock on the door woke Shi Anran up. Hearing Wang Yuan's voice, Shi Anran's heart that had been hanging in the air all this time finally stopped.

"Mm, alright, I understand."

Just as he finished speaking, the door was pushed open, and Shi Yu was still dressed in his court uniform: "Anran, what's wrong?"

The moment he saw Shi Yu, Anran could no longer control his emotions. He ran forward and nestled into's embrace, and couldn't help but mutter under his breath, "Father, father …"

Ever since his wife had left, this eldest daughter had always given him the impression that she was an adult, giving him the impression that she was very sensible. When he saw the helpless her at first glance, he started to panic a little, "Anran, what's wrong, did anyone bully you?"

Shi Yu turned his gaze towards the little girl who was serving at the side. Under the pressure of Shi Yu's gaze, the little girl could not help but ask, "Master, this servant does not know what happened to Eldest Miss."

After a long while, Shi Anran managed to calm herself, and choked with sobs, "Father, your daughter is fine."

"What is going on?" Shi Yu naturally did not believe her words, "Anran, you can tell this father about whatever grievances you have suffered, and this father will uphold justice for you."

Shi Anran knew that her abnormality just now would definitely attract other people's attention, and her mind was working extremely quickly.

"Dad, your daughter really didn't suffer any grievances. It's just that this morning, you weren't here, and you didn't come back. Your daughter couldn't help but think of the nightmare she had last night and couldn't control herself. Now you're making dad laugh."

After saying that, Shi Anran lowered her head in embarrassment, her face also becoming a little red from shyness.

"Haha, Father still hasn't seen Anran's wedding, and hasn't seen Anran's happiness, so sshe will naturally be fine, so Anran can relax," said Anran as he saw the tray on Shi Anran's table, "Anran is planning to come over to have breakfast with Father?"

Following Shi Yu's hand, Shi Anran looked over, and Shi Anran nodded in embarrassment: "But it's all cold, daughter, let the kitchen do it first."

Seeing the guilt and apology on Shi Anran's face, Shi Yu waved his hands, "What's wrong with that? It's good that it's cold, in case it gets even hotter." As he said that, he pulled Shi Anran's hand and walked towards the table.

"Master, the Agarwood Academy sent someone to deliver this."

Just as the father and daughter were about to sit down, Wang Yuan walked in with a new tray, and looked at the porridge that was still steaming hot. In Shi Anran's mind, she suddenly recalled what Lian Xing and Liu Yue had said in the courtyard earlier, and accepted it with a smile, "Father, do the two girls in the daughter's courtyard have to be rewarded?"

Seeing that Shi Anran finally had a smile on her face, Shi Yu was naturally happy as well, "Of course, Wang Yuan, let Uncle Yang go to my private storage to take a look at some things to get my rewards. All the girls have a reward."

"Then your daughter will thank father on behalf of the few girls," After saying that, Shi Anran stood up and blessed herself with her body, "Father, your daughter is currently eating with father everyday, Father cannot despise your daughter."

Shi Yu reached out his hand and tapped her forehead, "You heartless little girl, when did father ever despise you?"

Shi Anran turned her head away somewhat embarrassedly, "Father, you said it yourself. If you don't like your daughter in the future, your daughter will not listen to you."

With that, Shi Anran stood up and scooped up a bowl of porridge for Shi Yu and placed it in front of him.

Seeing her mischievous look, Shi Yu laughed, and the father and daughter duo continued to chat and laugh as they ate. Shi Anran pretended to be indifferent, and asked: "Oh yes, father, why are you home so late today?"

Hearing Shi Anran talk about this, Shi Yu's face turned serious. She put down the bowl and chopsticks in her hands and asked, "Anran, Father has something to ask you. Last time in Father's study room, you said something about how to cure the locust plague.

Shi Anran nodded her head, looking a little embarrassed on the surface, "Does father think that my daughter is just fooling around like that, that was all her imagination the last time I was reading."

"Originally, I shouldn't tell you about this, but the locust disaster in the south is very strong for Anran right now. This is what His Majesty was talking about today, and even though father didn't listen to all of your plans that day, he still thought that it was a good idea. Can you write it down and let father see?"

"Dad, why are you and your daughter so polite? If it wasn't for dad's book, your daughter might not have had that kind of inspiration." As he said that, Shi Anran walked behind Shi Yu and helped massage her shoulders. "Father, since the matter of the imperial court is so tiring, don't bother with your daughter anymore. When your daughter grows up, I can help you share your burden."

"Father's Anran has truly grown up. If your mother were to know about this, she would probably be happy, right?"

"That's right, father, the plague of locusts can be said to be very serious. If the emperor takes a fancy to father's paper, will he make you go down south to manage the plague of locusts?"

"Her Majesty's thoughts are unpredictable, and Father doesn't know either. Anran just needs to be happy, and stop worrying about such troublesome matters." Shi Yu patted the back of her hand. Although he was completely exhausted from the matters at the imperial court, in order to prevent his daughter from worrying, he still had a smile on his face.

Shi Anran walked to his side and squatted down, "Father, are you still so distant from your daughter? Dad, you really can't be so tired in the future, it's just a big deal. In the worst case scenario, you can just let me help you manage things in the future, after all, I've grown up, right? "

Originally, Shi Anran was only testing the waters, but she did not expect Shi Yu to agree so readily.

"Father, are you really at ease leaving such an important matter to your daughter?"

Shi Yu's smile was a little ethereal, "Father's Anran has indeed grown up, and the backyard is also very complicated. Your mother is no longer here, if you don't learn how to manage the backyard, what should you do in the future? In the past, Father wanted to say something. It is time for Anran to learn how to protect herself. "

The sudden great surprise caused Shi Anran to be unable to recover her senses. Only after a while did she manage to react, "Father, your daughter will definitely not disappoint you."
