After a while, Bai Yi returned.

He wiped the sweat off his forehead. “Your Highness, I’m afraid the emperor will be sleeping for a while. In the meantime, can I trouble you to wait at our residence?”

Gu Nuo’er smiled sweetly, revealing her cute little white teeth. “Alright, Uncle Bai, can you let Elder Brother Siming bring me out to play?”

After saying that, the child crossed her arms and pretended to be old. “Who knows how long Father will sleep for? Baby Nuo can’t stay bored like this!”

Bai Yi quickly nodded and looked at Ye Siming. “Take good care of the princess.”

At this moment, Madam Bai called out to him from outside. Bai Yi guessed that the hangover soup was ready.

He hurried away again.

Gu Nuo’er wiped her small hands clean and jumped off the chair. She reached out her cute little fingers to Ye Siming.

“Elder Brother Siming, hold my hand. Let’s go out and play!”

Ye Siming’s long eyebrows were furrowed with faint impatience, but his physical reaction was more honest. He held Gu Nuo’er’s small hand and led her out.

“Don’t tell me you want me to accompany you to change clothes and see the free porridge stall again today?”

Gu Nuo’er shook her head and smiled. “That matter has been resolved!”

Ye Siming and Gu Nuo’er boarded the carriage and headed toward the bustling street market.

When they arrived at a sugar figurine stall, Gu Nuo’er placed her small hand in front of the window. “Stop the carriage!”

The carriage stopped and she ran down eagerly.

Then, she turned to look at Ye Siming, who had followed her down. She pointed at the sugar figurine stall and smiled cutely. “Elder Brother Siming, treat me to candy!”

Ye Siming did not refuse. Unfortunately, when he walked to the stall, they looked at each other for a long time.

Neither of them said a word.

Ye Siming frowned. “What is it?”

“Elder Brother Siming, why aren’t you taking out money?”

Money?

Ye Siming said honestly, “I didn’t bring any.”

Gu Nuo’er widened her watery eyes.

She was used to her second brother’s extravagance of using hundreds of silver worth of notes. When she heard Ye Siming say that he came out without money, the child felt unprecedented shock.

This was because she didn’t have the habit of bringing money with her either!

Gu Nuo’er’s long eyelashes fluttered and her face was filled with disappointment. “Without money, I can’t buy candies.”

After saying that, she turned to look at the clear and sparkling sugar figurine that had just been placed on the stall.

The child swallowed her saliva pitifully.

When Ye Siming saw this, he frowned slightly. “You look extremely sad. It’s just a matter of not being able to eat candy. Can’t you just buy it next time?”

Gu Nuo’er twisted her small hands and lowered her head pitifully. “But I feel like eating it now.”

She pounced over and hugged Ye Siming’s leg, looking up and blinking her big eyes. “Elder Brother Siming, Baby Nuo is usually very pitiful. My mother watches me closely and I have to be sneaky like a thief when eating candies!”

Ye Siming lowered his eyes and saw her small body swaying. He pressed on his glabella. “Don’t say anymore. I understand. I’ll think of a way for you.”

Gu Nuo’er immediately curled up her pink lips, smiling like a little fox.

Ye Siming looked around and walked in the direction of an acrobat performance.

“Come take a look, come take a look. Those with money can support with money, those without can support morally! This brother of mine practices the Invincible Armor technique. Whoever can shatter the huge rock on his chest will be able to obtain ten taels of silver!”

The owner of the acrobatics troupe was giving an introduction with spittle flying everywhere. The surroundings were filled with onlookers.

On the ground, a strong man was lying on a moss-covered stone slab!

A seemingly strong man stepped forward and said boldly, “Let me give it a try!”
