Transmigrated As My Former Uncle’s Sweetheart

in Qingyuan ended up grasping at thin air, and she frowned in displeasure at the man who was carrying Yaoyao.
“Excuse me, General Long, I was going to hold Yaoyao first.”

Long Xuan cradled the fair-skinned Yaoyao close to his chest.
She was so small that she hardly weighed anything in his arms.

However, before he could acquaint himself with this tiny bundle of joy, Lin Qingyuan’s irritated voice came to him.

He glanced at her, cocking an eyebrow.
“Oh, did you? I didn’t notice.” He then turned back to Yaoyao and cooed to her.
“Lil Yaoyao, try saying Big Bro.”

A corner of Lin Qingyuan’s mouth twitched in irritation.

What the heck? She was clearly there first!

Frustrated, she reached out to Long Yin.
“Do you want me to carry you, Your Little Highness?”

Hearing her voice, Long Yin sent her an uninterested glance from his spot in his mother’s soft embrace before nestling further into it, his rejection painfully obvious.

Lin Qingyuan was a little indignant.

Yaoyao was the only one of the three children who got along well with her.
The Prince hardly paid her attention, and asking for any from Ji’er was basically out of the question.

Unfortunately, Yaoyao was in Long Xuan’s arms right now, and Lin Qingyuan could not hold her even if she wanted to.

Lu Liangwei was amused by Lin Qingyuan’s sullen expression.
“Long Xuan’s never held Yaoyao.
Let him have his turn for a bit.”

Lin Qingyuan glared at Long Xuan and muttered under her breath, “Do I have a choice? He’s already holding her.”

It was a loud mutter, nonetheless, and Long Xuan gave her a furtive look.

He knew that he should behave more like a gentleman, but Yaoyao was so adorable that he could not bear to let go of her.

After considering for a moment, he said to Lin Qingyuan, “Please wait for a while, Miss Lin.
I’ll hold Yaoyao for a little longer, then you can hold her.”

Lin Qingyuan ignored him and played with Long Yin together with Lu Liangwei.

However, no matter what she offered to him, she could not pique his interest.

On the other hand, he accepted everything Lu Liangwei gave him.

Lin Qingyuan was flabbergasted.
“It’s incredible how this child still remembers you even though you’ve been gone for so long.
How do you do it? Why is he so cold to us but so affectionate with you?”

“Because I’m his mother.” Lu Liangwei shot her a smug look.

Lin Qingyuan was speechless for a moment before pressing her lips into a pout.
