Chapter 118: Meeting Nalan Cui on the Way Out

Such a cute and obedient child. Su Yan’s eyes lit up and she said, “You shall be named Little Kid.”

She finally understood why Gu Ruoyun liked to call her Little Girl.

This feeling was indeed very good.

Upon closer inspection, this child’s lips were red and his teeth were white. However, everyone’s first impression of him would be to notice his eyes and ignore his good looks.

It was a pity that he was too thin. There was not a single bit of flesh on his face. If he were a little fatter, he would definitely be a cute boy who looked like a young doll.

A burst of cheers suddenly erupted from outside. Su Yan curiously looked out of the window.

There was someone playing juggling outside.

Su Yan’s eyes lit up. She pulled the boy’s hand and ran outside. However, there were too many people around, so she could not see anything.

Suddenly, she felt something move in her palm. She looked down and saw the boy pointing at the stage at the side.

Su Yan’s eyes lit up. She quickly brought the boy to stand on the stage. She could see everything below.

Seeing the juggler spew flames from his mouth, Su Yan clapped excitedly.

She had loved watching juggling since she was young. However, as the eldest daughter of the Su family, she couldn’t keep running outside, so she didn’t have much of a chance to see it.

Halfway through, the hawkers of candied haws next to her attracted her again.

Su Yan looked at the juggling reluctantly, then looked at the candied haws behind her.

The boy found it a little funny. In the end, Chu Tao caught up with them and bought them two strings of candied haws.

Su Yan handed a string to the boy.

One big and one small, the two of them walked around the entire street.

The annoyance of the past few days had finally disappeared.

Su Yan saw that the sky had darkened and exclaimed, “Could it be that curfew has already been imposed on the palace?”

The boy nodded silently.

Su Yan said with a troubled expression, “Then how are you going to go back?”

The inner guard appeared at the right time and said, “Your subordinate can send him back.”

A faint light flashed in the boy’s eyes and he said, “No, sister. If I go back now, I will be beaten up.”

Su Yan did not doubt his words. After all, the bruises on his body the last time she saw him were obviously caused by long-term abuse.

She said hesitantly, “Then are you okay if you don’t go back tonight?”

The boy nodded and said, “No one will notice if I don’t go back.”

Su Yan could only bring him to the Guang Residence for the night.

Seeing that he was dressed so thinly, she even asked Chu Tao to buy a few sets of children’s clothes for him.

The boy touched the new clothes on his body and looked at the hot food on the table with a gloomy expression.

Su Yan mistakenly thought that the boy was shy. She picked up some food for him and said, “Hurry up and eat. Just treat this place as your home.”

The boy lowered his head and said, “My home won’t be so good.”

“What?” His voice was too soft, so Su Yan didn’t hear him clearly.

That night, for the first time, the boy lay on the bed. He opened the warm blanket, but he could not fall asleep no matter how hard he tried.

For the next few days, every time Su Yan suggested sending him back to the palace, she was moved by his pitiful look and did not let him go.

Just like that, the boy stayed in the Guang Residence.

A few days later, An Yi, who was out on business, came back and saw that the boy’s expression did not look right.

Su Yan asked, “What’s wrong?”

She was holding the boy’s hand and planting flowers.

Originally, it was just Su Yan’s whim, but she did not expect that the more she planted, the more addicted she became. In the end, she decided to plant the flowers with the boy.

An Yi bowed slightly and said, “Why are you here?”

He was speaking to the boy.

Su Yan held her chin and looked at the boy and An Yi’s expressions. She was not surprised at all. She had already guessed that this boy’s identity was not simple. If he was really an ordinary eunuch, he would not have dared to stay outside the palace for so long.

The boy lowered his head and did not speak.

Su Yan looked at An Yi with a questioning gaze.

An Yi knew that Su Yan did not know his true identity. He could only say, “He is the seventh prince.”

Su Yan was shocked. She did not expect him to be the famous seventh prince.
