Chapter 376: Riding and Archery Competition

On the other side, Xiao Zhonghua also came over to greet them.

Su Cheng sized him up. “Who are you?”

“Third Prince.” Su Xiaoxiao introduced again.

Su Cheng thought for a moment and his expression suddenly became serious. He stretched out a hand and made a stopping gesture. “Don’t come home to play!

His son-in-law would be jealous!

Xiao Zhonghua was speechless.

The victory on the first day could be said to be a good start. Qin Canglan and the Old Marquis were incomparably proud that their Cheng’er had proven his strength in front of everyone. They also felt complicated because Cheng’er’s performance today was different from usual.

It should be said that it was fiercer and more murderous. In terms of the martial arts competition itself, this was not a bad thing. However, when combined with Su Cheng’s situation, it could not help but make people suspect that Su Cheng had suffered another blow.

The Old Marquis gave Qin Canglan a look.

Qin Canglan said seriously, “Cheng’er, I’ll send you back.”

The group left the palace and boarded the carriage back to the medical center.

Su Xiaoxiao and the Old Marquis were in the same carriage, while Qin Canglan and Su Cheng were in the same carriage.

All along the way, Su Cheng was rather silent, and he was like a completely different person from his fierce and domineering appearance in the arena.

Qin Canglan wanted to say something but hesitated.

The carriage swayed along the long street, and the sound of traffic could be heard from time to time.

“Cheng’er…” Qin Canglan finally spoke, “You… have you recalled everything?” Su Cheng lowered his eyes, his body shrouded in a layer of gloom.

“Mm,” he replied softly.

Qin Canglan had guessed it, but hearing him admit it himself still made his heart tighten.

He had imagined the scene of father and son reuniting countless times, but at this moment, he realized that he had a thousand words to say, but he actually had no way to say them.

He lowered his head in shame. “I’m sorry, Cheng’er.”

He was to blame for what happened back then.

He was the one who failed to protect his wife and child, causing his wife to be killed and his son to wander among the commoners.

This separation lasted for thirty years.

His son had grown up, and he was old.

His life had been rushed through decades, but he had missed it.

Su Cheng said, “I want to be alone for a while.”

When Su Xiaoxiao returned to the clinic, Su Cheng had just come out of Su Ergou’s room.

He sat in a corner of the courtyard, holding the right pendant he had worn since he was young.

The setting sun cast a long shadow on him.

Su Xiaoxiao walked over and walked down the bench beside him. “Father.”

Su Cheng raised his hand to wipe the corners of his eyes and said nonchalantly, “My daughter is back. Ergou is fine. I just went to see him.”

“Okay.” Su Xiaoxiao nodded and didn’t say anything. She just accompanied him quietly.

Su Cheng lowered his head and touched the jade pendant in his hand. He casually asked, “Do you still remember what happened when you were young?”

“I remember a little,” Su Xiaoxiao replied.

“Then do you still remember your mother?” Su Cheng asked.

“I remember.” Su Xiaoxiao searched her memory about Madam Chen. “Mother was very beautiful and very capable. She likes to wash my hair and Ergou’s. After washing, half of my hair will be bald.”

Su Cheng was speechless.

He said softly,”Daughter, it’s hard for me to long for her like this…”

Su Xiaoxiao turned to look at him. Her eyes were clear and gentle. “What about

Father’s mother? What was she like?”

“Very fierce.” Su Cheng said, “Always trying to beat me up with a feather duster.”

Su Xiaoxiao: “That’s because you liked to cause trouble when you were young, right?”

Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Did she beat you up?”
