Gu Nuo’er ran out.
She stood under the signboard and took a look. As expected, there was a big horse carriage covered in cloth parked not far away.
Someone lifted the curtain with his slender fingers, revealing an extremely cold face.
His thin and long eyes were filled with coldness. His slightly raised eyebrows revealed a hint of youthfulness.
Ye Siming reached out his finger and knocked on the carriage. Then, he hooked his finger at Gu Nuo’er, gesturing for her to come over.
He then mouthed something to her—
It’s time to go home.
The child waved her hands excitedly. “Elder Brother Siming! You’re the one who came to pick me up!”
She turned to Xie Yinxiang and said, “Sister Yinxiang, I’ll be leaving first! You have to live well!”
As she spoke, she prepared herself to run through the rain to the carriage.
Ye Siming frowned and said loudly, “Wait right there. I’ll go over there.”
However, Gu Nuo’er felt that it was fine since it was just a drizzle.
Unexpectedly, just as she took a step down the stairs, she felt her body lighten.
Ye Siming was extremely fast and sandwiched her in his arms before she got into the rain. He wrapped her in a thin cloak and blocked all the wind and rain.
Gu Nuo’er waved her small hand under his thin cloak. “Elder Brother Siming, it’s so dark that I can’t see anymore!”
Ye Siming lowered his head and sneered. “It’s fine as long as I can see.”
After saying that, he didn’t even look at Xie Yinxiang and carried Gu Nuo’er into the carriage to leave.
After they left, Xie Yinxiang was unable to come back to her senses even after a long time had passed.
The princess’s words touched her a lot.
At this moment, Xie Xingli hurriedly ran toward the entrance after he was done making arrangements for the carriage.
“Where’s the princess? Where did the princess go?” He looked around and only saw his daughter, Xie Yinxiang.
Xie Yinxiang looked back and said, “The princess’s guard, Young Master Ye, came to pick her up.”
Xie Xingli was rather surprised. “Young Master Ye, Ye Siming? Aiya, I came out late and didn’t see how elegant this young master is.”
Ye Siming had a cold personality and didn’t buy anyone’s words.
Other than appearing by the princess’s side, he rarely showed his face.
Many officials had never seen him before, but his reputation had long been ingrained in their hearts.
The mysterious, strong, cold, and fierce boy who walked out of the wolf cage was the label that Ye Siming had in their hearts.
In the moving carriage, Ye Siming placed Gu Nuo’er beside him.
Gu Nuo’er was still wrapped in his thin cloak, looking like a little bun, revealing her fair and tender face.
“Gu Nuo’er, you didn’t go to school but came to someone else’s house as a guest, huh?” Ye Siming rested his head on his hand, asking with his eyebrows raised.
The child didn’t look at him at all and was busy taking out the handkerchief she had used to wrap up the little spirit flower.
With her head lowered, she said softly, “Uncle Xie invited me over!”
Ye Siming stared at the child.
Was she not aware that there were many bad people in the world who wanted to steal children?
“Next time, you can’t come out without bringing anyone with you, understand?”
Gu Nuo’er held the flower in her small hands and looked up when she heard this. Her long eyelashes fluttered and she looked very innocent.
“I did bring people along. Elder Brother Zhang Sui and his men are hidden but it’s just that no one can see them!”
Ye Siming frowned quietly.
If Zhang Sui was her hidden guard, then what was he?
Ye Siming simply stopped talking and sat at the side with a cold face and his arms crossed.
Gu Nuo’er didn’t notice anything and only busied herself at the side. After a while, she called out softly, “Elder Brother Siming, look!”
Ye Siming glanced sideways casually and was stunned.
The child placed the pink flower that had some soil on top of her head!
There was even a little mud on her clean face.
As for the pink flower, it looked as if it had grown out of her small head.
She looked smart, playful, and indescribably cute.
