Ye Siming sneered. “What do you want to play that I can’t accompany you?”
Gu Nuo’er blinked. “Elder Brother Siming doesn’t know, right? They’re from the Xili Empire!
“When I was young, I read the history books of Great Qi in Father’s imperial study. I know that the Xili Empire is our strongest opponent.
“I’m naturally going to play this time to make the enemy one of us.”
Ye Siming pondered for a moment. “Are we going to kill them all and take the land for ourselves?”
Gu Nuo’er quickly waved her small hand.
“If I can persuade them to reconcile, I naturally won’t have any thoughts of killing them. Elder Brother Siming, let me play this once~ I guarantee that I won’t be back before long.”
Ye Siming sneered and raised his eyebrows slightly.
“If you go play for a while, His Majesty will go crazy from anxiety.”
The child smiled. “I was planning to write a letter to Father. Don’t worry, Father has a tacit understanding with me. He’ll feel relieved soon.”
Ye Siming pursed his thin lips and said coldly, “I’m not worried about His Majesty.”
“Then what are you worried about, Elder Brother Siming?” The child tilted her head and sized up his expression.
The dense forest, the dark sky that had rained, and the anxiety he felt when he just found out that Gu Nuo’er had been taken away.
At this moment, once he saw her, all the feelings of anxiety were appeased.
The scenery reflected in Ye Siming’s eyes seemed to have become cute again.
Everything was embellished with liveliness because of the child’s delicate voice and smile.
The anxiety in Ye Siming’s heart gradually calmed down.
“You didn’t miss me when I wasn’t around?” The youth’s voice was pleasant with a unique hoa.r.s.eness.
It was mixed with the sound of a trickling stream and was very pleasant to the ears.
Gu Nuo’er blinked her round eyes, her face fair and obedient.
“Of course I did! I was just thinking that if Elder Brother Siming was around, these bandits wouldn’t be able to last more than two rounds!”
The child’s voice was sweet and soft. “Elder Brother Siming, I really can’t do without you!”
Ye Siming’s thin eyes lit up with faint joy.
“Alright.” He quickly said, “Then I’ll go to Xili with you. I won’t let them notice me usually, but I’ll always be by your side.”
Otherwise, if he were to let her go to Xili alone, even if he knew that Gu Nuo’er was a little fairy, Ye Siming wouldn’t be at ease.
Of course, he had to take care of his little thing himself.
Gu Nuo’er nodded in agreement without thinking.
“It’s naturally better with Elder Brother Siming around!”
Only then did Ye Siming reach out his slender hand and pull Gu Nuo’er’s small foot out of the stream.
The youth gritted his teeth and sneered. “Gu Nuo’er, you’re a little liar.
“Previously, you said that if you get lost and I wait on the spot, you’ll come back.
“Fortunately, I didn’t listen to you this time. If I waited in Great Qi, wouldn’t you only see me after playing around in Xili?”
Gu Nuo’er’s pink lips curled up and she smiled brightly. “Aiya, the situation this time is special. There won’t be a next time!
“If I make Elder Brother Siming worry again, I’ll… Hmm… I’ll braise myself!”
Ye Siming was stunned for a moment before sneering and pretending not to care. “I don’t like to eat fish.”
“Really?” The child leaned closer and looked at him with her big watery eyes.
Ye Siming’s ears turned red for some reason.
He pulled Gu Nuo’er’s small feet into his arms.
He helped her put on her socks that had become dry and neat at some point.
Her small feet were like an exquisite jade artifact in his palm.
Ye Siming’s movements were very light. After a long time, he looked up.
“It’s a lie.” Only then did he answer her question.
“Steam is good. I like it,” Ye Siming added with a teasing expression.
Gu Nuo’er blinked. When she came back to her senses, she kicked him angrily. “Elder Brother Siming!”
Ye Siming chuckled and held Gu Nuo’er’s feet tightly.
After that, he washed her shoes for her and helped Gu Nuo’er put them on.
Ye Siming said seriously to Gu Nuo’er, “If such a situation happens again in the future, I’ll rush over earlier.
“I won’t let you dirty your dress again.”
