Gu Nuo'er fluttered her long eyelashes and greeted him in a childish voice.
"The doorman uncle~ Are Uncle Bai and the others at ho?"
After saying that, she scratched her face with her fair and tender hand.
"Elder Brother Siming hasn't co to look for to play for two days!"
The doorman quickly explained, "Recently, a relative ca to our house and caused a huge commotion. Master and Madam had a headache because of this and Young Master even made a move…"
"He made a move?" Gu Nuo'er imdiately widened her eyes.
The doorman led Gu Nuo'er toward the main hall.
He looked anxious like he wanted to get reinforcents. "That's right! Those people seem to be Madam's family. They don't have good intentions when they co looking for us now! However, they're being shaless. Your Highness will know when you see them later."
Before the two of them entered the main hall, Gu Nuo'er heard a rough and old voice—
"You're my daughter after all, so why can't I co to see you? Fuling is your sister. She just lost her husband not long ago. If you don't take care of her, are you waiting for , who has one foot into my graveyard, to take care of her?!"
Right on the heels of that, Madam Bai replied angrily, "When I was nine years old, you guys chased out of the house. We haven't seen each other for so many years, but the mont I arrived, you asked to serve an orphan and a widow. What right do you have?"
"Elder Sister…" A weak and sobbing voice called out, "If it weren't for the fact that my child is still young, I wouldn't have co to trouble you and Brother-in-law. You've married a general and are leading a good life. Please help us mother and son."
"Don't call Elder Sister! Back then, you slandered for stealing the family's money to get chased out of the house by Mother. Do you think I've forgotten?" Madam Bai flicked her sleeves and said coldly.
Her expression was firm as she gritted her teeth. "In short, my husband and I won't take you in. You'll take a boat back to Nanxiang tomorrow!"
Gu Nuo'er waved her small hand, indicating for the doorman to not say anything first.
She stood at the side of the door and listened quietly.
Nanxiang?
She seed to have seen it on her father's map before.
It seed to be a small city that was a little far away!
Gu Nuo'er slowly stuck her head in and took a look.
Bai Yi's expression was tense as he sat on the chair. Madam Bai sat on his right. Both of their expressions didn't look too good.
A woman was kneeling on the ground, wearing white embroidered clothes.
Her back was facing Gu Nuo'er and she couldn't see her face.
She could only tell from her slightly trembling shoulders that the woman was crying.
On the chair at the side sat an old man in his sixties.
He was holding a white cloth to his forehead and he looked like soone who wasn't easy to get along with.
Gu Nuo'er blinked.
Elder Brother Siming wasn't here either?
The old man slapped the armrest of the chair and said, "Why are you so heartless? I'm your father after all! It's fine if you don't want to support , but I was even injured to this extent by your adopted son!
"If word gets out that you've allowed your adopted son to hit your father, heh, General Bai's reputation will probably not be good!"
\Madam Bai imdiately frowned and shouted angrily, "If you guys don't throw a tantrum and make a ruckus, Siming won't have hurt anyone while trying to protect !"
At this mont, a child's shrill cry ca from the other side of the corridor—
"Let go of ! Mother, Mother, help! This person wants to kill !"
Gu Nuo'er quickly stood up and looked over as she blinked her watery eyes.
Elder Brother Siming, whom she had not seen for two days, held a longsword in his left hand and a boy kicking around in his right.
His arrogant eyes were filled with cold killing intent.
It was as if he was preparing to bring the boy to the main hall to kill him!
However, when Ye Siming saw Gu Nuo'er standing at the door and blinking her big eyes at him…
Ye Siming was stunned and the cold expression on his face eased a lot.
With a crisp clang, he threw the sword to the ground.
