563 Bear With It Even If I’m Bad
The attendant had seen the two of them in the front yard just now and naturally recognized them.
At this moment, he was holding a bucket in his hand and was a little surprised. “Your Highness, Marquis, what are you…?”
Ye Siming gritted his teeth.
If he had known earlier, he would have knocked out the servants in this area.
However, the child in his arms immediately said in a childish voice, “Shh! We’re playing hide-and-seek with my eldest brother. Don’t tell anyone that we’re hiding here!”
The attendant was struck by a realization.
So that was how it was.
Gu Nuo’er pointed with her small hand. “Elder Brother Siming, come, let’s go and hide in the room!”
The attendant quickly said, “Your Highness, Marquis, don’t worry and go hide. This servant can keep watch here!”
Gu Nuo’er clenched her small fist and gave him an encouraging look. “If I win, I won’t forget you.”
After saying that, Ye Siming gently kicked the door and brought the child into the side pavilion building.
The attendant felt that he had an important mission.
Being able to play hide-and-seek with Her Highness was something that many eunuchs in the palace couldn’t get to do even if they begged.
To think that he would get this opportunity.
He was really lucky!
However… why would Her Highness and the marquis hide in a side pavilion building that was so far away?
Weren’t there many places to hide in the front yard?
The attendant was a little puzzled.
However, at this moment, he saw the first prince, Gu Zixiao, hurriedly run over not far away. He pulled another servant and asked, “Did you see the princess?”
The servant quickly shook his head and said that he didn’t see her.
Gu Zixiao then went to another place to ask.
The attendant immediately believed the little princess’s words without a doubt.
As expected, they were really playing hide-and-seek!
It seemed that he had to keep the secret well for the princess.
After entering the side pavilion building, Gu Nuo’er placed her hands on her hips. “Alright, Elder Brother Siming, go on and smell it~”
Ye Siming pursed his thin lips tightly and gritted his teeth. “Gu Nuo’er, do you think that I have to sniff to find anything I’m looking for?”
Gu Nuo’er immediately looked up, her eyes watery and sparkling. “Oh? Is that not the case?”
Ye Siming sneered. “I’m a demon god. I can know who an item belongs to just by relying on my senses.”
After saying that, he didn’t even lower his head and moved forward.
He picked up a squarish brocade box on the ground and held it with his hand.
“This should be the gift given by the person who asked you to pass on the long brocade box.”
It was found so easily, and it was even so close.
Gu Nuo’er almost doubted if this was true!
However, Ye Siming was never one to make mistakes.
Gu Nuo’er held the brocade box and took a look. It said: A gift from the Zhuang Family’s youngest daughter.
“Oh~ It’s that Yingying~”
Ye Siming didn’t know who she was talking about and only watched as the child opened the square box.
Inside was a carved jade pendant.
From the looks of it, it was an old monk sitting under a pine tree. The carvings were exquisite and the jade quality was extraordinary.
Gu Nuo’er took out the jade pendant with her small hand and threw it into a corner.
Just like that, this valuable jade disappeared among the mountains of congratulatory gifts in the room.
Then, Gu Nuo’er hugged the long box with her small hands and was about to open it.
Ye Siming suddenly pressed down with his slender palm and narrowed his narrow eyes. “You want to take a peek?”
Gu Nuo’er didn’t expect Elder Brother Siming to see through her smooth movements.
She said righteously in a soft voice, “That’s not true. I wanted to put the painting into this box! I didn’t want to take a peek!”
Ye Siming raised his eyebrows. “How can the items be switched when one is a long box and the other is a square box?”
“That’s simple. Elder Brother Siming, just tear off the key content of the painting and put it in the square box.”
Ye Siming didn’t say anything wrong. He just looked at the child’s round eyes as if she was waiting for him to bring out the painting.
The boy snorted.
Smart little thing.
He pressed Gu Nuo’er into his arms and hugged her forcefully. Then, he opened the scroll behind her.
“Elder Brother Siming, you’re bad!”
“Bear with it even if I’m bad.”
