Chapter 79: Can’t Elder Brother Siming Give Me A Kiss?
Gu Nuo’er’s small hands moved down slightly, revealing a pair of clear eyes that flickered with intelligence.
She asked softly, “Really? Elder Brother Siming must wait for me to leave together in the future.”
Ye Siming agreed and nodded as a promise.
Otherwise, if this little thing kept crying in his arms, he might really not be able to hold back and bite her face.
At this moment, a short and fair finger reached out to him.
“Pinky swear.”
Ye Siming turned his head away. “No.”
Gu Nuo’er became anxious and twisted her small body. “Pinky swear! This is what Elder Brother Siming promised Baby Nuo!”
Ye Siming couldn’t stand her childish voice echoing in his ears. He freed up one hand and hooked her fair and soft finger.
Such a touch really made him feel as if he had grabbed onto a delicate hand.
Gu Nuo’er was extremely happy. Just as Ye Siming didn’t expect it, she kissed him on the cheek.
Ye Siming was stunned for a moment before coming back to his senses. He gritted his teeth. “Gu Nuo’er, don’t push your luck!”
The child looked innocent and blinked. “What’s wrong? Can’t Elder Brother Siming give a kiss?”
“I don’t like it.”
Gu Nuo’er tilted her head. “Then can you change?”
Ye Siming was speechless.
Why did Gu Nuo’er always have a way to make him want to go crazy but not be able to bear to do so?
Ye Siming’s jaw tightened and he didn’t say anything else.
Gu Nuo’er thought that he had accepted it. The child was very happy and hummed a song in his arms.
From time to time, she would point out the way. “Go left and then turn right~”
Fortunately, the snow was not heavy at this moment. Gu Nuo’er was hiding in Ye Siming’s coat and didn’t get any snow on her.
They hadn’t walked for far when they bumped into a row of palace maids.
Gu Nuo’er raised Ye Siming’s coat with her small hand and immediately saw the person walking in front with an umbrella.
“Elder Sister Shuzhen!” She called out softly.
Mu Shuzhen raised her head and gave Gu Nuo’er a gentle smile.
At this moment, Gu Nuo’er saw that Mu Shuzhen was holding the umbrella with both hands for A’Yun.
A’Yun stopped in front of Gu Nuo’er with the palace maids and bowed to her. “This servant greets the princess.”
Gu Nuo’er’s eyes flickered. She looked at A’Yun curiously and then at Mu Shuzhen.
There was a bruise on Mu Shuzhen’s forehead and dark circles were even darker than before.
She asked softly, “A’Yun, why aren’t you holding onto the umbrella yourself?”
When Gu Nuo’er called Mu Shuzhen, she addressed her as elder sister. When she called her A’Yun, she called her by her name outright.
This made A’Yun secretly clench her fists.
She lowered her head and replied, “This servant hurt my hand when I was working this morning and felt a little uncomfortable. Therefore, I asked Shuzhen to help this servant hold an umbrella for a while.”
Mu Shuzhen seemed hesitant to speak as if she was prepared to expose A’Yun’s lie. However, she didn’t say anything and only lowered her head.
Gu Nuo’er seemed to understand. “Oh, if you’re injured, you won’t be able to serve Empress Mother well. Why don’t you go back and rest?”
A’Yun paused. If the empress were to hear the princess’s words, there would be no place for her by the empress’s side!
Everyone in the palace knew that she had become the empress’s head palace maid.
They were all rushing to curry favor with her. She wasn’t going to let go of such a good job.
A’Yun’s smile was very grim. “Your Highness, thank you for your understanding, but this servant’s body is tough. I’ll be fine after resting for a day.”
Gu Nuo’er didn’t argue with her and only said softly, “Alright then.”
She was still thinking about going out to play and patted Ye Siming’s shoulder. “Elder Brother Siming, let’s go.”
At this moment, Mu Shuzhen unintentionally looked up in their direction.
Suddenly, her entire body trembled.
