524 It Looks Like They’re All Not As Sincere As I Am
After they got on the carriage, Gu Nuo’er covered her stomach with her small hands and whimpered like a kitten.
When the carriage left Prince Xuan’s manor, she sat up.
She blinked her big watery eyes and wiped away the tears that she had just squeezed out.
“Phew, we’ve finally left. I won’t come again!” The child leaned back in Ye Siming’s arms and sighed.
Ye Si’s worried expression froze. “You faked it?”
Gu Nuo’er looked up at him, her glass-like eyes filled with small pride.
“That’s right. Uncle Prince Xuan and the others have been bullying Elder Brother Siming.”
As she spoke, she stood up from Ye Siming’s arms and placed her hands on her hips, imitating Prince Xuan’s questioning.
“It’s so annoying to ask so many questions! What I hate the most is that they keep making you drink. Hmph, I’ve seen many such occasions. They’re just trying to rope me in in the name of treating me to a meal.”
Gu Nuo’er pounced over and wrapped her small hands around Ye Siming’s neck, touching the top of his head.
“Elder Brother Siming, don’t worry. With me around, no one can bully you.”
Ye Siming couldn’t help but laugh at her touch. “Bully me?”
Was he still someone who needed protection in the little thing’s eyes?
Seeing Gu Nuo’er nod innocently, Ye Siming pursed his lips and smiled.
If she said yes, then it would be so.
Ye Siming held Gu Nuo’er’s small waist with one hand to prevent her from falling when the carriage swayed.
He then pretended to close his eyes and frown. “They made me drink quite a lot of wine. Now I’m feeling a little dizzy.”
Gu Nuo’er widened her big black pearl-like eyes. “I’ll give you a massage!”
Ye Siming raised his head in satisfaction and felt the little thing’s soft hands gently pressing on his temples.
Gu Nuo’er pouted, her eyes filled with heartache. “Linzhou kindly invited us over for a meal, but in the end, we couldn’t prevent the adults from having complicated thoughts.”
When Ye Siming heard this, he narrowed his eyes. The moonlight in his eyes was as cold as water.
“You think Yun Linzhou doesn’t know?”
Gu Nuo’er tilted her head. “Hmm… Linzhou looks stupid. Even if he knows, he definitely won’t understand what it means!”
Ye Siming’s thin lips curled into a faint sneer.
When Yun Linzhou called Gu Nuo’er’s name anxiously just now, his expression did not look like a fool who did not know anything.
Gu Nuo’er said softly, “However, after my scare, I don’t think Uncle Prince Xuan and the others will dare to invite us casually in the future. This is good too. It will save Elder Brother Siming trouble!”
Ye Siming was sitting with his knees bent, and Gu Nuo’er was standing in front of him. The two of them were very close.
He simply rested his chin on the child’s shoulder.
He said in a sluggish voice, “I’m not afraid of trouble.”
If he was unhappy, he would just kill one.
If he was happy, he would kill a pair.
Gu Nuo’er’s soft voice sounded. “I know, but I’m afraid that Elder Brother Siming will be sad.”
“Why would I be sad?”
“Oh, when I was two years old, everyone knew that Father doted on me. So, some of the official uncles treated me very well. But Baby Nuo knew that they were all trying to please Father.”
The child said in a light-hearted tone, “Back then, I was still young. When I found out about this, I was very sad because Baby Nuo thought everyone liked me because I was cute!”
Therefore, if Elder Brother Siming found out that everyone only wanted to befriend him because they wanted to rope him to their side, he would definitely be sad.
That was what the child thought.
However, Ye Siming, who had his chin on her shoulder, chuckled softly.
“It seems that none of them are as sincere as me.”
“What sincerity?”
“Nothing.”
