Chapter 980 - 980: Tenth Brother, Come Play With Me
Gu Ziliang couldn’t bear to let his sister keep feeling anxious.
She quickly squatted down. “Alright, alright, alright. Brother will come under the umbrella with you.”
Gu Nuo’er held onto the umbrella’s handle with both hands and looked at the tenth prince curiously with her watery black eyes.
She asked in a soft voice, “Brother, why aren’t you carrying me? This way, we can both come under the umbrella!”
Gu Ziliang was stunned.
He didn’t expect that he could do this at all.
Could he carry his sister?
He was a little hesitant.
Ever since Gu Nuo’er was born, he had never interacted with her so intimately.
She had so many older brothers, but he had always been the one who didn’t stand out.
As for his sister, Gu Nuo’er, she was a bright pearl.
Could the bright pearl enter his arms?
Gu Ziliang hesitated for a moment. There was a hint of inferiority in the depths of his ice-blue eyes.
Unexpectedly, Gu Nuo’er had already reached out her soft hands and wrapped them around Gu Ziliang’s neck.
“Brother, carry me!”
The child with a milky fragrance entered his arms. Gu Ziliang was stunned for a moment before supporting the child’s small butt with his arms and picking her up.
His well-defined slender fingers also took the umbrella from her hand.
The haze of inferiority in Gu Ziliang’s heart was dispelled by his sister’s consideration and enthusiasm.
She didn’t mind that he had the bloodline of an outsider.
A faint smile appeared on Gu Ziliang’s face.
Gu Nuo’er’s soft hair was blown gently by the rainy wind, making her eyes look even more lively.
She pointed forward with her small finger. “Tenth Brother, are you finished with your studies today?”
Gu Ziliang carried her and walked forward.
After a pause, he nodded. “Yes, the teacher has gone home.”
The child quickly asked, “That old baddie, Master Tao, didn’t bully you again, right?”
Gu Ziliang looked sideways and saw that Gu Nuo’er’s black grape-like eyes were filled with concern.
He didn’t tell the child that he had just punished Master Tao.
He was afraid that this kind of thing would scare her and didn’t want her to worry about him.
Therefore, he said, “No, Sister is very amazing. You made Master Tao behave himself with just a few words.”
Gu Nuo’er was very happy and danced and cheered. “He just needs to be taught a lesson! Since Tenth Brother is free today, can you accompany Baby Nuo out of the palace to play?”
There was no school today, and Elder Brother Siming wasn’t around either.
She had to have some fun herself.
“Alright.” Gu Ziliang agreed without thinking. “Where do you want to go to play?”
Gu Nuo’er smiled sweetly and slyly. “I heard that there’s an antique market on West Street that specializes in things with stories. Let’s go take a look too.
“However, before that, we have to bring something to sell. Only then can we buy things with the money we get.”
The child’s thoughts were very novel.
If she wanted to, she might be able to book the entire antique market with just some of her pocket money.
However, Gu Nuo’er was very smart and knew that it’d only be fun if they were involved in the buying and selling. She enjoyed this process.
Therefore, she naturally had to bring something with her.
This would give her a greater sense of accomplishment.
When Gu Ziliang heard this, he felt that his sister’s head was filled with novel things.
How could an ordinary seven or eight-year-old girl know about buying and selling antiques?
He couldn’t help but smile. His deep eyes and profound frontal bones made his brown hair look even darker in the rain.
His sister was really amazing. She could think of everything and knew everything.
That was what Gu Ziliang thought.
Soon, under Gu Nuo’er’s command, he carried her to a dilapidated hall in the cold palace.
Gu Ziliang looked at the bleak and desolate palace and couldn’t help but be a little puzzled. “Is there… anything we can sell from here?”
