Ji Jingchen's expression was dark as he retracted his gaze in dissatisfaction.    

    

Anyway, he didn't want these kids around her all the time.    

    

It was enough as long as he had Wen Tiantian by his side.    

    

However, Ji Jingchen quickly realized that he had completely underestimated the killing power of these children.    

    

The next morning, Ji Jingchen was woken up.    

    

The sound of laughter could be heard from outside. From time to time, it was mixed with a scream or two.    

    

Ji Jingchen frowned and sat up. He opened the curtain and took a look, only to see that the children were all gathered in the yard, having a snowball fight.    

    

He walked out into the courtyard and saw that the butler and the kitchen maid were both standing by the side. They were looking at them with a face full of joy and would even occasionally step forward to give pointers.    

    

They didn't know when they started, but the whole yard was in chaos.    

    

Ji Jingchen frowned. Just as he was about to speak, a snowball hit him!    

    

Before he could even react, an ice-cold stabbing pain came from his face.    

    

When the people around saw Ji Jingchen, they were so scared that they instantly sucked in a breath of cold air and quieted down.    

    

Ji Jingchen frowned, wiped the snow off his face and slowly opened his eyes.    

    

The children in the yard were so frightened that their faces changed. They stopped and did not dare to speak, afraid that he would be angry with them.    

    

The butler hurried over.    

    

"Sir, are you alright?"    

    

As he said that, he wiped Ji Jingchen's face with a handkerchief and explained, "They are still young children, don't be angry. They didn't see you coming over."    

    

Ji Jingchen saw that he was actually pleading for mercy on behalf of those children.    

    

When did they get to know each other so well when they moved in yesterday?    

    

With a dark face, he swept his gaze across the children standing in the yard with their faces flushed red from the cold.    

    

When the children saw his gaze, they were frightened and did not dare to speak.    

    

Ji Jingchen said coldly, "Keep quiet until 7 in the morning. Don't let me say it a second time! "You guys …"    

    

Before he could finish, his gaze suddenly fell onto the rose forest beside him.    

    

The leaves of the rose tree had long since fallen, and there were many snowflakes accumulated on them.    

    

Quite a few children directly grabbed the snowflakes from above to knead them into snowballs, and on the other side, it was the rose bud that Ji Jingchen found in the Rose Forest with great difficulty.    

    

At this moment, the flower bud was snapped off.    

    

Snowflakes were scattered all around. It was obvious that it had been broken by the snowball.    

    

Ji Jingchen's expression instantly turned extremely ugly. He pursed his lips and anger could be seen in his dark pupils.    

    

When the butler saw the broken Rose that hadn't even bloomed yet, his expression immediately turned to panic.    

    

"Sir, they definitely did not do it on purpose."    

    

He clearly remembered that Ji Jingchen had searched through all the rose forest that day, and his entire body was frozen stiff. Only with great difficulty did he manage to find this bud.    

    

Later on, in order to wait for it to open, he took good care of it.    

    

But he didn't expect that it would be broken.    

    

He immediately regretted not watching carefully just now. He had actually forgotten about it.    

    

The yard was eerily quiet. Ji Jingchen walked over with a sullen face and squatted down in front of the flower bud.    

    

Wen Tiantian had promised him two days ago that she would come when the flowers bloomed.    

    

But now, the petals on the bud had just opened.    

    

He looked at them for a long time before finally standing up and turning his head to look at everyone.    

    

The children trembled and huddled together in fear at the cold look in his eyes.    

    

"In the future, you are not allowed to come to the rose wall!"    

    

The children were already crying from the fear.    

    

"I'm sorry …"    

    

They spoke softly, but Ji Jingchen ignored them and walked directly into the house.    

    

"Is breakfast ready?"    

    

The chef was startled and said anxiously, "Oh, sir, I haven't started preparing breakfast yet …"    

    

Ji Jingchen heard her and turned around.    

    

The cook smiled unenthusiastically.    

    

"The children were hungry in the morning, so I helped them make some snacks."    

    

Ji Jingchen's expression was extremely ugly.    

    

"Then let's begin."    

    

"Yes, yes, I'll go right away."    

    

The cook called out and hurried into the kitchen.    

    

When Ji Jingchen left, the butler sighed and caressed the children's hair.    

    

After twenty minutes, Ji Jingchen left impatiently before the chef brought in the breakfast.    

    

Even at the Ruan, his complexion still did not look good.    

    

Wen Tiantian saw him and asked curiously, "Ji Jingchen, what's wrong? Are the children good enough for them? "    

    

Ji Jingchen pursed his lips and thought of that rose.    

    

"Very good, they're fine."    

    

Wen Tiantian looked at him curiously, but felt that Ji Jingchen's expression wasn't good. She asked again, "Have you had breakfast?"    

    

"I'm not hungry."    

    

Wen Tiantian smiled and took the breakfast out of the drawer.    

    

"I've prepared breakfast. Come over and eat with me."    

    

Inside were delicate sandwiches and sushi.    

    

Ji Jingchen looked at Wen Tiantian's face and gradually relaxed.    

    

"The last rose I found in the castle had some problems."    

    

Wen Tiantian was stunned in her heart as she vaguely guessed something.    

    

"It doesn't matter, next time I'll look for it with you, maybe there will be more."    

    

With that, she raised the corner of her mouth and smiled at Ji Jingchen.    

    

Ji Jingchen was stunned. He suddenly realized that it had been a long time since he saw Wen Tiantian's smile.    

    

After a while, he nodded.    

    

It seemed like those brats were not useless.    

    

Then he would continue to tolerate it and let them stay at the castle.    

    

In the next few days, Wen Tiantian would often come to the ancient castle.    

    

But unlike what Ji Jingchen had expected, Lili spent most of her time in the tower, with the children.    

    

Even if he went to find them himself, the children would have tens of thousands of ways to attract Wen Tiantian's attention to themselves.    

    

Even if Ji Jingchen stayed behind, sitting on the side and looking at Wen Tiantian.    

    

Those children were also nervous because of Ji Jingchen's appearance, and they didn't even talk much.    

    

Seeing that, Wen Tiantian looked over to Ji Jingchen a few times.    

    

Although she didn't take the initiative to ask him to leave, the meaning in her eyes was very clear.    

    

As long as he was there, the children became very nervous.    

    

As soon as he left the room, he could hear the laughter of the children as soon as he stepped out of the room.    

    

Ji Jingchen's face turned dark. The moment he walked out, he met the butler who was coming over with a snack.    

    

In the whole castle, everyone except Ji Jingchen seemed to be welcoming the arrival of these children.    

    

Ever since the children had arrived, the cook's daily cooking schedule had changed.    

    

There were several times when Ji Jingchen woke up in the morning and found that the cook had made breakfast for these children. Ji Jingchen could only wait for them to finish their breakfast before starting.    

    

But even so, he couldn't just sit there and watch.    

    

Because when these kids saw him, they ate even slower.    

    

He didn't dare yell at them, and as soon as his voice rose they began to cry.    

    

It gave Ji Jingchen a headache.
