Xiao Fenghao and Xiao Yuxi froze. They thought that they had heard it wrong.
"Eldest Brother, did you say he is the emperor?" Xiao Yuxi let out a nervous laugh, waving her hand as if she was sure she must have a hearing problem.
However, Xiao Jingran's next words shattered her hope.
"You didn't hear it wrong," he answered calmly.
His younger siblings sucked in a deep breath, still enveloped in the feeling of disbelief. They almost thought they were dreaming.
"Second Brother, does it hurt?" Xiao Yuxi proceeded to pinch Xiao Jingran's hand, causing him to let out a yelp in pain. She sighed, "So this is not a dream…"
She looked away from Xiao Fenghao's glare and slapped her own cheeks lightly, mumbling, "the emperor."
Their father's identity was indeed too troublesome.
If he was the emperor… Xiao Fenghao and Xiao Yuxi's faces turned slightly gloomy. It was no wonder that their mother didn't want to acknowledge him.
Xiao Yuxi let out a snort. "Let's find another father."
