The Tyrant Father’s Pampered Daughter Chapter 823: He’s A Chess Piece, Then What About Me?

Chapter 823: He’s A Chess Piece, Then What About Me?
Prince Guang limped as the soldiers helped him away.
He felt very puzzled.
Why wasn’t the princess frightened at all when faced with an assassination at such a young age?
He knew that Gu Nuo’er had been rumored to be blessed since she was young.
However, he felt that no matter how smart and quick-witted a girl who was only six or seven years old was,
It was impossible for her not to show any fear when facing so many people’s assassination attempts.
Just now, Prince Guang had hidden in the nearby crowd and watched as the assassins he had found surrounded Ye Siming.
Gu Nuo’er leaned on his shoulder, obedient and quiet.
Not only that, but the child also seemed to yawn.
It was as if she had foreseen this.
Prince Guang didn’t believe that Gu Nuo’er had the ability to predict the future.
He began to suspect if there was a traitor among his people who had exposed his plan!
Prince Guang immediately thought of Ren Chao. He looked around but didn’t see Ren Chao.
Prince Guang became even more suspicious.
He called over another trusted hidden guard. “Go and find Ren Chao. Keep an eye on him and see who he had come into contact with.”
“Yes.”
The hidden guard turned around and left.
On the other side, Ren Chao was reporting what had just happened in Gu Nuo’er’s carriage.
“I wanted to inform Your Highness, but Prince Guang’s assassins were fast. By the time I got close, they had already taken action.”
At this moment, Gu Nuo’er was sitting at a short table filled with pastries.
She swayed her small feet in white socks.
She held the mung bean pastry in her left hand and a small teacup in her right.
Her round face puffed up and her pink lips were glistening as she ate.
Gu Nuo’er finished the fruit tea and swallowed the pastry in her mouth.
Her pink tongue licked her lips before she smiled and said softly, “It’s alright, Elder Brother Ren Chao. It’s fine as long as you take care of your own safety.
“If the n*ked prince’s plan doesn’t work, he will definitely come up with another plan. He has already been played by us twice. The next time might not be so easy.
“In order to prevent him from suspecting you, you don’t have to come and look for me these few days. If you have anything to report, not long later, the sweet shop I opened will have a poetry gathering that is held together with a rouge shop. You can come again then.”
Ren Chao cupped his hands and accepted the order. “Yes.”
After saying that, he glanced at Ye Siming, who was sitting in the corner but staring at him coldly the entire time.
Ren Chao felt a chill run down his spine.
He didn’t say anything else and hurriedly left the carriage.
Ye Siming pursed his lips and looked sideways at Gu Nuo’er. “You conspired with him to lure Prince Guang to launch an assassination attempt today but didn’t tell me.”
Gu Nuo’er had just taken a bite of the mung bean cake.
She turned to look at Ye Siming.
The youth was sitting in the shadows. A ray of light that shone in from outside the window happened to hit his eyes.
His deep and cold eyes were illuminated, but they revealed a circle of brown coldness.
Ye Siming frowned and added, “Is Ren Chao worthy of your trust?”
Gu Nuo’er blinked, her watery eyes shining.
“He is. This is a chess piece I buried a year ago. Now is the time to use him.” Ye Siming looked up and locked his gaze on the child.
“Ren Chao is a chess piece. You’re using him well. Then what about me?”
His throat rolled twice and his voice was low. “Even I don’t know about your plot you hatched with the chess piece. Am I inferior to this chess piece?” Gu Nuo’er didn’t expect Ye Siming to ask such a question.
She threw away the mung bean cake and crawled to Ye Siming’s side.
Gu Nuo’er poked Ye Siming’s face. “Elder Brother Siming, you’re not a chess piece. You’re my most intimate person..”
