Gu Nuo’er pouted. “Isn’t it the same if I hold your hand?”
The boy shook his head. “Thank you for your kindness, older sister, but I like benefactor older brother.”
This detestable little brother!
This was the first time Gu Nuo’er had been rejected.
She fluttered her long eyelashes and puffed up her pink face pitifully. In the end, she could only say, “Forget it. I’m the older sister, so I won’t hold it against you. Elder Brother Siming, just hold his hand.”
Since Gu Nuo’er had spoken, Ye Siming did as she said.
Moreover, he didn’t want Gu Nuo’er to hold this kid’s hand.
Therefore, along the way, Ye Siming held the boy’s hand and walked in front.
Gu Nuo’er walked behind with Xie Yinxiang and Jiang Xiaoran.
The servants Jiang Xiaoran brought with him followed behind them with a pile of poems, books, pens, and paper.
These were to be given to poor children who couldn’t afford to study.
At this moment, Gu Nuo’er looked ahead with her watery eyes.
Ye Siming turned around from time to time to check on her safety.
However, the boy kept telling Ye Siming about his family cheerfully.
“I have a grandmother who can make very delicious dishes. When we get to my home later, benefactor older brother can bring your friends to my house for dinner!”
However, Ye Siming didn’t listen seriously. He only looked at Gu Nuo’er’s round, fair, and delicate face. It seemed that there was a hint of gloominess on it.
What was wrong with the little thing?
The boy was still chattering away. “My name is Qi Jingsheng. Grandmother calls me A’Sheng. You can call me that too, benefactor older brother.” Ye Siming retracted his gaze and replied with an “mmm”.
Behind them, Jiang Xiaoran did not notice Gu Nuo’er’s expression at all.
He smiled happily. “To be honest, Siming looks even more handsome when he’s taking care of the child seriously.”
Xie Yinxiang glanced at him and gently nudged him with her elbow.
Before Jiang Xiaoran could react.
“Why are you touching me?”
Xie Yinxiang rolled her eyes at him. “Who touched you?!”
Why couldn’t he understand what she meant? He kept bringing up things that shouldn’t be touched.
Gu Nuo’er had never been a petty person.
However, now that she saw that Ye Siming had a good personality and was taking care of that little boy…
The child felt an indescribable feeling in her heart.
At this moment, the group had already reached the foot of the mountain. If they walked a little further up, they would reach Qingxi Village.
Gu Nuo’er saw that the purple wildflowers by the roadside were blooming
nicely.
She quickly ran over. After picking a few flowers, she caught up to Ye Siming and the others.
“Little brother!” Gu Nuo’er ran until she was panting, her eyes bright and obedient.
She handed the purple flowers over. “The flowers by the roadside are very fragrant. Do you want to smell them?”
Qi Jingsheng immediately said happily, “Thank you, older sister!”
He reached out his small hand and Gu Nuo’er handed the flowers over.
The child’s voice was soft. “Why don’t I hold your hand and we’ll go to the front to take a look? There must be other flowers that smell even better!”
Unexpectedly, Qi Jingsheng shook his head. “There’s no need. I smell old pine. We must be getting closer to the village I live in. Older sister, let’s not run around.”
Gu Nuo’er wanted to trick his small hand out of Ye Siming’s palm.
However, she failed again.
The child’s delicate eyelashes suddenly fluttered twice. She looked up at Ye Siming pitifully.
The youth didn’t understand and only asked, “What’s wrong? Are you hungry?”
Gu Nuo’er immediately puffed up her pink cheeks. “You’re the one who’s hungry. Hmph!”
She turned around and walked towards Xie Yinxiang.
Ye Siming frowned in confusion.
Did he offend the little thing?
