Chapter 320 - 320 Grandmother, Help Me~ Nuo'er Can't Go Up Anymore!
320 Grandmother, Help Me~ Nuo’er Can’t Go Up Anymore!
Gu Nuo’er immediately snorted. “Grandma, lower your voice. Otherwise, Grandpa will hear you! Shh~!”
She made a gesture with her chubby fingers and then ran back and forth in the house.
Wanxuan and Qiaorong had both hidden well. The old madam smiled as she looked at her granddaughter, who was still walking around. She wondered what was going on in her smart mind.
There was no special expression on Gu Nuo’er’s face, but she had already released her magic power.
What others couldn’t see was that the entire room was surrounded by a faint blue watery light.
She was looking for anything suspicious that didn’t have the aura of the Qiao Family.
However, she didn’t find any item.
Instead, she discovered a strange hole under the Grace Defender Duke and his wife’s bed. To be more precise, it was a secret compartment.
Gu Nuo’er could sense that there was something hidden there.
She aimed at the spot and squeezed under the bed with her butt sticking out.
Her small body snuggled in.
Fortunately, Qiaorong and the other maidservants cleaned the place every day, so there was no dust at all.
However, Gu Nuo’er found it even more strange.
Someone cleaned this place every day. Why didn’t they notice that there was a hidden compartment under it?
Gu Nuo’er gently searched her surroundings with her small hands and finally discovered a suspicious gap near the wall.
She tried to open it with her hands, but she didn’t use any tools and didn’t have any strength to do so. She also couldn’t open this thing that looked like a lid.
No wonder Elder Sister Qiaorong and the others didn’t notice it when they were cleaning every day.
It was really too close to the innermost area and no one would notice it.
Gu Nuo’er tried for a long time but failed to open it. Her small face puffed up with a hint of impatience.
The child decided not to waste her energy. She waved her small hand and pushed the lid open from left to right.
With the light from the room, Gu Nuo’er could barely see that it was a hidden compartment that wasn’t too deep. There was a rectangular mahogany box with the print of a young horned dragon.
She reached out her small hand, wanting to pull the box up.
However, she was really too small and her arms weren’t long enough. There was still some depth in the secret compartment.
Just as the child was exerting strength, her body suddenly felt light.
Gu Nuo’er fell in.
Not only was her nose covered in dust, but tears welled up in her eyes from the pain of the bump!
Boohoo~ My nose~
When the old madam heard this sound, she quickly stood up and looked for where it came from
She was afraid that something had fallen and hit Gu Nuo’er.
“Nuo’er? Nuo’er, where are you? What was that sound just now? Are you alright?”
“Grandma, I’m here~” There was a hint of crying in her childish voice.
The old madam quickly squatted down and saw that there was actually a hole under the bed!
At this moment, Gu Nuo’er raised a box with both hands.
“Hei shoo… phew~” The child’s two white hands that were stained with dust grabbed onto the edge of the hidden compartment, revealing the top of her furry head. Immediately after came her pair of big eyes that were still glistening with tears. The tip of her nose had gotten dust on it, making her look as cute as a little rabbit.
Gu Nuo’er tried for a long time but realized that she couldn’t climb up. The secret compartment was too narrow. She raised her small leg a few times but couldn’t reach the edge!
She tugged at the edge pitifully and said in a soft voice, “Grandma, help me~ Nuo’er can’t come up!”
The old madam was shocked, afraid that Gu Nuo’er would get hurt.
She was old and couldn’t get in. She quickly called out, “Someone, come quickly! Nuo’er has fallen into a hidden compartment!”
A moment later, Wanxuan crawled under the bed and pulled the child up.
Gu Nuo’er ignored the dust on her face and instructed in a childish voice, “Elder Sister Wanxuan, quickly open this box and see what’s inside.”
