Ye Siming carried Gu Nuo’er and walked over. It was actually Lord Xue, who had been hiding here just now.

His heart was hit by the stone that Ye Siming had kicked over and he felt extreme pain!

Initially, when he saw that the assassins had all gone out, he thought that since Ye Siming wasn’t around, it wouldn’t be difficult to kidnap a little princess.

Unexpectedly, the first person to go and tempt the little princess had already fallen to the ground and was foaming at the mouth!

As for the youth, Ye Siming, who had rushed back… He was actually a demon!

The people he killed had all had their blood sucked dry and they had turned into bones!

Gu Nuo’er blinked and looked at Lord Xue for a moment.

She had always been playing with Gu Yihan in the imperial study, so she had naturally seen this official before.

The child had an excellent memory. She thought for a moment and said, “Oh, it’s Uncle Xue, Xue Yumeng’s father.”

Lord Xue originally wanted to escape while they were talking, but he didn’t expect to be discovered by Ye Siming.

He crawled back in horror, but the slightest movement would cause him to feel a suffocating pain in his chest!

“Don’t, don’t kill me… He’s a demon, a demon!”

Gu Nuo’er’s eyelashes fluttered as she asked obediently and cutely, “He’s not a demon. He’s my Elder Brother Siming!

“Uncle Xue, did you bring so many unfamiliar uncles here to capture me and bully me?”

Lord Xue looked at Ye Siming’s cold and handsome face and trembled in fear. He no longer knew how to answer Gu Nuo’er’s words.

Suddenly, Lord Xue looked to the side and exclaimed, “Your Majesty!”

Neither Ye Siming nor Gu Nuo’er looked back. On the other hand, Lord Xue thought that he had deceived them. Ignoring the pain, he got up and ran, not daring to look back.

Looking at his stumbling back view, Ye Siming’s thin lips curled into a cold sneer.

No matter how fast Lord Xue ran, he could not be faster than his arrows.

Therefore, he was not anxious. His gaze was cold as if he was looking at his prey.

However, Gu Nuo’er patted Ye Siming’s shoulder. “Elder Brother Siming, let him go. My father is over there. He’ll definitely cry to my father!”

The child took the initiative to twist her small body and get onto the ground. She placed her hands on her hips and instructed, “Uh, since Elder Brother Siming is so amazing, then let’s get rid of these bones first. We’ll keep the unlucky person who was poisoned by the mushroom as well as the few bad uncles you injured.”

Ye Siming saw that she was giving instructions methodically and there was a hint of calmness on her fair face.

Gu Nuo’er… was not afraid of him at all.

As Ye Siming pondered, the child looked at him again.

“Elder Brother Siming, when you see my father later, you must not admit that you’re a wolf!” Gu Nuo’er’s eyes were glistening.

Her pink lips were soft. “Otherwise, they’ll all be afraid. When the time comes, you’ll stand behind me and I’ll protect you!”

Ye Siming smiled coldly. “Then why aren’t you afraid of me? You have to know that I might go berserk and hurt people at any moment. What if I eat you?”

Gu Nuo’er looked up with obedient eyes. Her fair skin and black hair made her look like an exquisite doll.

“Last time, Elder Brother Siming would apologize when you bit my pinky! You wouldn’t eat people!”

She urged in a childish voice, “Hurry up and clean up. It won’t be good if Father sees this!”

Ye Siming slowly waved his fingertips without batting an eyelid.

The four to five skeletons that were originally lying on the ground disappeared with the wind.

Like sand that had been scattered, even the clothes were left without a trace.

After a while, Gu Nuo’er saw a long string of flames approaching not far away.

They were accompanied by Gu Yihan and the imperial guards’ cries—

“Baby Nuo!” “Princess!”
