Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Another two days passed.

The early autumn wind was already a little cold.

Gu Nuo’er was wearing new clothes. Her beautiful brocade dress was a soft orange color.

Her black hair was braided into two braids.

There were two golden bells strung on red strings tied to the braids, making crisp sounds when she ran.

The child’s face was round and fair. She blinked her big watery eyes and stood obediently at the entrance of the state school.

Xie Yinxiang carried her book basket and passed by Gu Nuo’er.

She glanced at the sky. “Nuo’er, aren’t you going back to the palace?”

Gu Nuo’er narrowed her eyes and smiled sweetly. “I want to wait for Elder Brother Siming to come. He has something on today and will be here later!” Ye Siming didn’t come to the state school today.

It seemed there were some matters in the military camp, so he asked the child to go to class first before he would come to pick her up after school.

However, the state school ended school very early today. The teachers were arranged to copy ancient books with little notice.

Xie Yinxiang thought for a moment. “Do you want me to accompany you?”

“No need. Elder Sister Yinxiang can go home. Elder Brother Siming will be here in a while.”

Only then did Xie Yinxiang nod and leave.

Ever since Ye Siming started to go to and from school with Gu Nuo’er, the child didn’t like to let the imperial guards follow her.

Firstly, it was because the lineup was too big. Secondly, it was not Gu Nuo’er’s style to travel in a grandiose manner.

While the child was waiting, most of the students in the state school had left.

When she looked down at her crescent-white shoes, a pair of black boots suddenly stopped in front of her.

Gu Nuo’er looked up and saw that it was an unfamiliar man she didn’t know. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

He was about 30 years old.

He was wearing the clothes that guards in the military camp would wear, and eight other people behind him were dressed in the same clothes.

“Your Highness, we came under the Marquis’s orders to send you back to the palace.” Gu Nuo’er blinked. “Elder Brother Siming asked you guys to come?”

“Exactly.”

“Then where is he? Why isn’t he here?”

“The Marquis has important matters to attend to and is busy. He specially asked us to come and pick Your Highness up.” Gu Nuo’er pouted and thought about it.

“What’s your name?”

“This subordinate is Ren Chao.”

The child looked at him. “Alright, let’s go back then.”

The man received the order and turned to invite Gu Nuo’er to walk in front.

Their group followed behind.

Someone from the state school also saw them. Looking at their clothes, they thought that someone from the palace had picked up the little princess.

Gu Nuo’er walked out of the alley and realized that a carriage was parked at the side.

She passed by it directly.

“Your Highness!” Ren Chao called out.

Gu Nuo’er looked back obediently. “What’s wrong?”

Ren Chao felt a little awkward and pointed at the carriage beside him. “Our carriage is here.”

The child immediately opened her black eyes wide.

After a long while, she slowly walked over.

After getting into the carriage, she didn’t forget to mutter in a childish voice, “Why is the carriage Elder Brother Siming found so

Ren Chao seemed to have heard it and added, “The conditions in the military camp aren’t good. It’s been hard on Your Highness.”

The carriage started moving.

The speed unknowingly increased.

Moreover, they were not heading toward the palace.

When they passed by the lively street, a soft cry suddenly came from the carriage!

“Ahhh!”

Ren Chao quickly got someone to stop the carriage. “Your Highness, what’s wrong?”

Gu Nuo’er jumped out of the carriage, her eyes shining. She ran towards the sugar figurine stall without hesitation.

“A Ninth Heavens Fairy sugar figurine that is freshly made! Buy one for me!” Ren Zhao was speechless.

The little princess had suddenly let out a cry. He thought that an accident had happened.

To think that it was only because she saw a sugar figurine she liked?!

Ren Chao endured his temper and paid the money..
