Chapter 814 - 814: They Gave You Beauties?!
Jiang Xiaoran stuffed the silver into the old granny’s hand.
Only then did he come back to his senses.
That wasn’t right. Why was he so anxious that Xie Yinxiang was angry?
The old woman who had taken the money quickly said, “Young master, you’ve given too much! Moreover, you didn’t do it on purpose. Take back the money.” She wanted to return the money.
Gu Nuo’er said softly, “Old lady, just keep it. Otherwise, this playboy older brother will feel guilty for the entire day!”
When the old woman heard this, she was in a difficult position. “But this is too much…
“It’s alright. It’s a festival today. With more money, you’ll be happy too!”
The child smiled.
The old woman quickly cupped her hands in thanks.
When she bowed, a hint of surprise flashed across Gu Nuo’er’s round and fair face.
The way this old granny bowed in thanks looked especially like how a palace maid would do so.
Generally speaking, it was impossible for people who had never entered the palace and had been trained by the inner court to reach such a standard.
Such doubts flashed across the child’s mind.
At this moment, Ye Siming had already come looking for her.
The surrounding onlookers had also dispersed.
He was holding two sugar figurines in his hand. When he saw that Gu Nuo’er was fine, he seemed to heave a sigh of relief and returned to his cold expression.
“Why did you come here?” Ye Siming bent down and handed the little sugar figurine to Gu Nuo’er.
The child took it with sparkling eyes and ate the sugar figurine’s small ear in one bite.
She said in a soft voice, “Oh, because playboy older brother was pursued by a group of older sisters. We ran away because we didn’t want to be implicated.”
Jiang Xiaoran quickly explained, “That’s because they’re being unreasonable!
My clothes were almost torn. I’m also innocent.”
As he spoke, he secretly glanced at Xie Yinxiang from the corner of his eye.
Ye Siming glanced at him coldly. “You deserve it.”
“Siming, why aren’t you consoling me? You’re even making sarcastic remarks!”
“Why should I console you? You brought this upon yourself.”
Jiang Xiaoran placed his hands on his hips. “That’s not right. Could it be that you haven’t been pestered by beauties before? A few days ago, I heard that someone in the imperial court gave you two beauties to please you…
He didn’t even finish speaking.
But Ye Siming’s eyes were already filled with storms.
He looked at Jiang Xiaoran with a sharp gaze.
Jiang Xiaoran shrank his neck. “You… What’s with your gaze? Are you going to hit me?”
Ye Siming’s long eyebrows were as cold as snow, enough to freeze people.
“I broke one of the hands of the official who gave me the beauties. You’re too talkative. Could it be that you don’t want your hand anymore?”
From his tone, Jiang Xiaoran felt that he was really unhappy.
He hurriedly hid behind Gu Nuo’er. “Your Highness, look. Siming is so fierce.
How scary!”
Unexpectedly, the child stomped her feet in anger.
“They gave you beauties?!”
The anger in Ye Siming’s eyes dissipated.
There was actually a wave of panic that even he didn’t know of in his eyes.
“I didn’t take them. They gave them to me by force.” Gu Nuo’er puffed up her pink cheeks like a petty fish!
Her round black eyes stared at Ye Siming.
Ye Siming hurriedly gritted his teeth and explained, “I wasn’t in the manor when they sent them over. It’s all Old Bai’s fault for being stupid and not knowing how to refuse them. When I returned, I had already chased them away. I didn’t…’
Before he could finish speaking, Gu Nuo’er complained in a spoiled voice—
“Which official uncle is so hateful? Don’t they know that Nuo’er likes beautiful older sisters the most? Why didn’t he give them to me? Damn it!” Ye Siming was stunned..
