Nanny Hu sighed. “So, Your Highness, look, my grandson is still young. How can I bear to leave?

“Although this servant knew that the empress and princess would definitely not treat this servant poorly if this servant were to return to the palace, this servant wishes to accompany my grandson.

“It’s just like when Your Highness was young, this servant followed by your side and never left you.”

When Gu Nuo’er heard this, she nodded silently. “Nanny, Baby Nuo understands, but Baby Nuo doesn’t want you to stay and be bullied by her.”

Nanny Hu smiled lovingly and patted the top of Gu Nuo’er’s head as she did in the past. “Your Highness and Young Master Ye have already backed this servant up today. I believe that Cuixiu will definitely not do this again.”

No matter how unwilling Gu Nuo’er was, she could only respect Nanny Hu’s thoughts. She pouted and nodded.

“Your Highness, Young Master Ye, please wait here for a moment. This servant will go and make some food for you. Your Highness likes to eat sweet things. This servant will go and make sweet pancakes for you.”

Gu Nuo’er swung her head happily and said happily, “I can taste the sweet pancakes made by Nanny again!”

Nanny Hu smiled and turned to leave shakily.

Gu Nuo’er lay on the bed and rested her chin on her small hand, looking at the sleeping baby.

The baby’s skin was tender and red like a big apple.

Gu Nuo’er couldn’t help but reach out and poke his chubby cheek.

The baby felt soft to the touch as if she was touching a ball of cotton!

Her eyes widened. “Elder Brother Siming, come and touch the baby.”

Ye Siming stood at the side and turned his head away without any interest. “I don’t want to.”

“Come and give it a try! He feels really soft!” The child grabbed Ye Siming’s wrist and held his fingertips, forcing him to poke the baby’s face.

After Ye Siming was forced to poke the baby twice, his thin lips curled up in disdain.

“Your face is softer. If you don’t believe me, why don’t you try pinching it?”

Gu Nuo’er was stunned. She reached her small hand out to her cheek and pinched it twice.

Her skin was delicate, to begin with, and now, her face turned red too.

Ye Siming couldn’t help but laugh when he saw her round, fair, and cute sight.

Only then did Gu Nuo’er realize what was going on. “Elder Brother Siming, you were teasing me!”

“Little fool.” Ye Siming crossed his arms and raised his eyebrows in mockery.

Gu Nuo’er was so angry that she clenched her fists and stepped on the bed. She wanted to reach out to pull Ye Siming’s face to “avenge” herself!

It was too bad that Ye Siming dodged very quickly. However, he didn’t move too far away for fear that Gu Nuo’er might fall off the bed. He would move from the left to the right and then to the middle, making it so that Gu Nuo’er was unable to catch him!

Gu Nuo’er was so angry that her cheeks turned red and her black eyes were filled with ripples.

At this moment, before Gu Nuo’er could succeed, the baby on the bed started crying.

He had been sleeping soundly when someone started to run and jump around him. The baby was naturally woken up.

Faced with the crying baby, Gu Nuo’er and Ye Siming didn’t know what to do!

“Elder Brother Siming, quickly carry him and coax him!” Gu Nuo’er urged.

Ye Siming frowned and backed off. “I don’t know how to coax children.”

It was more likely for him to eat children instead. Coaxing children? Don’t even think about it.

Seeing that the baby’s cries were getting louder and louder, Gu Nuo’er called out anxiously with a hint of spoiled tone, “Elder Brother Siming—!”

Ye Siming gritted his teeth. “Stop calling me! I’ll give it a try.”

After saying that, he quickly stepped forward and carried the baby like he would a sword.

Gu Nuo’er waved her small hands and instructed, “Aiya, don’t be so rough! Be gentler!”

Ye Siming suddenly thought of how Gu Yihan had taught him to carry Gu Nuo’er at the palace banquet the other day.
