Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When one entered the palace to meet the emperor, they weren’t allowed to carry swords on them. Therefore, he had left his weapon outside the imperial city!
”
In the blink of an eye, Gu Nuo’er had already walked up to the cage.
She looked up at this young boy who was much taller than her.
“Pretty older brother!” Gu Nuo’er smiled sweetly, revealing her small and cute white teeth.
Her eyes curved and her voice was soft and cute. “Why aren’t you wearing shoes? Do you feel cold?”
The boy looked down at the young child in front of him.
She looked very fair and exquisite, so frail as if she could be crushed to death with one hand.
However, her beautiful eyes flickered with kindness. They were sparkling and made it hard for one to take their eyes off them.
Clear and innocent—this was the first impression Gu Nuo’er gave him.
The boy pursed his lips and didn’t say anything, seeming to not want to talk to Gu Nuo’er.
The child was not discouraged.
She lowered her head and dug her small hands into her bag.
Her two small hands each held onto the milk cake she hadn’t finished as well as half a piece of candy, went through the cage’s bars to pass to him.
“Pretty older brother, you must be hungrie~ Have some food~”
Her small hands were fair and tender, her fingertips exuding a tempting pink.
If he were to take a bite, she’d definitely taste so soft that she’d melt in his mouth.
The boy’s fingertips moved slightly. Then, he slowly raised his hand and took the half piece of milk cake that Gu Nuo’er had leftover from earlier.
He put it into his mouth and chewed slowly.
Having never eaten something like this before, his gaze turned from icy-cold to being a little perplexed.
Were there really things in this world that tasted better than raw meat?
There was a sweet taste on the tip of his tongue.
After finishing the milk cake, he then took the candy from Gu Nuo’er and popped it into his mouth as well.
The boy crunched on the small piece of yellow candy.
Gu Nuo’er leaned against the cage, her chubby little face seeming to want to squeeze inside to get close to him.
“Does it taste good?”
The boy looked at the young child in front of him and a gust of wind brushed past.
The sweet scent on her also blew toward him.
She smelled really nice.
However, at this moment, the captive imprisoned behind the cage had untied the rope on his wrist!
He pounced toward Gu Nuo’er with a ferocious expression. “I’ll kill you all!”
The sudden change took place at this instant!
The imperial guards raised their longspears, wanting to charge over to protect the emperor.
Gu Yihan felt like he was on the verge of collapse as he cried out, “Nuonuo!”
Gu Nuo’er turned and looked toward her father. Suddenly, the boy in the cage stretched out one hand and pressed down her head.
The child sat on her butt from his push.
Her black eyelashes fluttered and she looked like she didn’t know what was going on.
Due to the boy’s actions, Gu Nuo’er dodged the captive’s attack.
At the same time, the boy’s other hand stretched out of the cage at extremely fast speed.
He clenched the Yaoxia Kingdom’s captive tightly.
He bared his teeth slightly. His sharp canine teeth, when paired with his cold and handsome expression, gave off a dangerous coldness.
“Courting, death.”
A crisp kacha sound rang out and he crushed the captive’s neck with his bare hand.
He then tossed the corpse to one side as if it was a piece of tattered cloth.
The boy squatted down in the cage and looked at Gu Nuo’er.
He smacked his lips on the tip of his tongue. “That food earlier, do you still have more?”
Gu Nuo’er turned and saw the dead captive that had fallen next to her.
She then turned over and blinked at the boy.
She was struck by the realization, “Pretty older brother! You saved me!”
To repay her debt, Gu Nuo’er quickly lowered her head and dug through her small bag.
“Hu~ Where are my candies~ Ahh~ I finished them yesterday!”
She was a little embarrassed and clenched her little fingers. “Mother doesn’t allow me to eat a lot of candies. I haven’t received my share today.
“After Nuonuo gets the candies, I’ll give them to you, okay?”
