Ye Siming didn’t even look at him and only stared at Gu Nuo’er coldly. “Why didn’t you say anything when you came out to play? What if you got lost?”
Gu Nuo’er walked up to him and puffed up her cheeks. “But when I came out, Elder Brother Siming wasn’t around.”
Ye Siming seemed to be extremely unhappy. His gaze was cold and he was silent for a moment.
When everyone saw this, Xiao Xia quickly went forward to mediate the situation. “Siming, don’t be angry. We’ll definitely tell you next time. This time, just treat it as a false alarm and that we’re just joking with you!”
Ye Siming’s cold gaze turned to him, like a thin blade with a chill that could cut one’s throat.
“Then don’t joke about these things with me like this.”
After saying that, he bent down and carried Gu Nuo’er out.
Jiang Xiaoran slapped his thigh and quickly turned around to follow them.
Everyone was stunned. “Didn’t we just bring the little princess out to play? Does he have to be so angry?”
“That’s right. Doesn’t he take his job as a guard too seriously?”
Ye Siming brought Gu Nuo’er out and walked quickly along the corridor.
Jiang Xiaoran looked at his angry back and decided not to go forward for the time being lest he be implicated.
On the other hand, Gu Nuo’er’s small hands and feet were hanging down. She looked up. “Elder Brother Siming, you’re angry. Why? Baby Nuo won’t get lost!”
Ye Siming stopped in his tracks. He raised Gu Nuo’er to his eye level, his eyes still as cold as swords.
In the Asura Realm, before he became a demon god, as long as he let down his guard, his prey would be taken away by other demons.
Gu Nuo’er had no sense of crisis at all.
His gaze was cold. “I don’t like it when you disappear without saying a word. Don’t do it again. Otherwise—”
Ye Siming gritted his teeth. “I’ll eat you first, do you understand?”
Gu Nuo’er’s chubby face trembled and she blinked pitifully. “I know. Boohoo. Elder Brother Siming, it’s wrong to eat children.”
In the past, when she looked like this, Ye Siming would give her a light smile.
But today, he was probably extremely unhappy. He only kept a straight face and remained cold for the entire day.
Jiang Xiaoran wanted to tell a joke to cheer him up, but just as he opened his mouth when Ye Siming said, “Scram.”
“Alright!” Jiang Xiaoran turned around and sat back down silently.
At night, Ye Siming stuffed Gu Nuo’er into the carriage sent by the palace. Then, he put his hands behind his back with a cold expression. “Go back to the palace obediently.”
Gu Nuo’er stuck her head out from the window and pouted in dissatisfaction. “But Elder Brother Siming, you haven’t paid much attention to me for the entire day!”
Ye Siming crossed his arms and said coldly, “I’ll naturally pay attention to you after you’ve figured things out.”
After saying that, he turned his head and looked elsewhere, deliberately leaving Gu Nuo’er with a cold side profile.
He originally thought that the child would say something again. Unexpectedly, after a while, he only heard the sound of the wheels slowly turning over the puddles.
When Ye Siming turned around again, he saw that the princess’s carriage had already traveled a distance!
The youth gritted his teeth.
Heartless little thing.
He turned and boarded his carriage.
Usually, when he accompanied Gu Nuo’er, he would only sit in the carriage. But now that he was alone, he sat next to the coachman.
“Young Master, are we going back to the manor?” the coachman asked.
“Yes.”
The carriage drove back to the Bai Manor. At this moment, the sky had already turned from dusk to a slightly blue moonlit night.
The air was filled with the fragrance of dishes. Needless to say, Madam Bai must have prepared delicacies.
