Bai Zhi’er nodded thoughtfully: "So that’s how it is!"
The little one beamed and said, "As long as Third Uncle and Brother didn’t argue, it’s fine. You were just yelling so loudly, like when Father gets angry."
Bai Yaoyu secretly cast a cold glance at Prince Kang.
He spoke to Bai Zhi’er with patience and gentleness: "Brother couldn’t be bothered to argue with him."
Bai Zhi’er looked at Bai Yaoyu and asked, "Third Brother, are you planning to go out and play? Can Zhi Bao go with you?"
Bai Yaoyu was taken aback and instinctively looked towards Princess Consort Kang.
Princess Consort Kang came over with a smile: "Why not? Zhi’er, tell your Third Brother what you want to play, and let him take you."
Bai Zhi’er clapped her little hands in delight and cheered.
Princess Consort Kang smiled and leaned in to Bai Yaoyu’s ear, warning him in a low voice.
"If you dare take your sister to hang around with that Second Young Master Wei, even if your father doesn’t flay you when you return, I will deal with you! Got it?"
Bai Yaoyu knitted his brows: "Am I someone so reckless?"
Having said that, he picked up Bai Zhi’er and turned to leave with long strides.
The little one lay quietly on his shoulder, waving goodbye to Prince Kang and his wife.
Alas, today, she was supposed to see her little uncle.
But just now, she saw her Third Brother Bai Yaoyu, with a darkened face, indicating either a disaster or misfortune was about to strike.
As the most obedient little sister, how could she sit idly by?
Bai Zhi’er shook her head helplessly.
Let’s first watch Brother, in case he stirs up some trouble.
Bai Yaoyu originally intended to take Bai Zhi’er out alone.
But just as they stepped out of Prince Kang’s Mansion, a call was heard—

The siblings turned their heads to look.
The Wei family’s carriage had already arrived.
The carriage curtain was slightly lifted, and Second Young Master Wei, looking gentlemanly, waved with a smile.
Bai Yaoyu pressed his thin lips tight, his eyes dark and murky.
He walked over with Bai Zhi’er in his arms.
"Zi’an, today I’m taking my sister out, so I won’t be joining you for archery."
Second Young Master Wei maintained his smile and, in a blink, noticed the little one in Bai Yaoyu’s arms. His eyes lit up.
Such a fair and delicate, transparently cute little person, isn’t she Princess Cui Cuo?
Wei Zian stepped down from the carriage.
He bowed respectfully to Bai Zhi’er: "Greetings, Your Highness."
Then he smiled at Bai Yaoyu: "I wonder where Brother Yaoyu intends to take Her Highness to play?"
Bai Yaoyu hesitated: "I haven’t decided yet."
Wei Zian shook his folding fan, chuckling lightly: "In that case, why not bring the Princess to the archery range? As you haven’t decided where to go, why not invite the little princess to watch us shoot arrows?"
Bai Yaoyu furrowed his brow: "Archery is dull and boring for my sister, let’s not."
However, upon hearing this, Bai Zhi’er tilted her little head and said to Bai Yaoyu: "Third Brother, let’s go have a look. Zhi Bao has never seen Brother shoot arrows!"
Wei Zian played along with her words, immediately suggesting with a smile: "Then this is a rare opportunity. Princess, you might not know, but the Third Young Master’s Hundred Step Piercing archery skill is exceptional, and people in the Capital call him the Little Martial God, famous far and wide."
Bai Zhi’er quickly clapped her little hands, eyes brimming with admiration.
"Third Brother, take Zhi’er, I want to see~"
Bai Yaoyu knew that although Wei Zian looked cultured and appropriate, he was actually full of cunning plans.
He initially associated with these people to provoke Prince Kang.
Now that he was with his sister, he naturally didn’t want to associate with them, lest Bai Zhi’er pick up bad habits.
But seeing Bai Zhi’er’s eyes full of anticipation, Bai Yaoyu couldn’t bear to refuse.
In the end, he nodded lightly: "Alright."
After all, with him around, Wei Zian and his group wouldn’t dare to act presumptuously.
