Chapter 1021: Sleeping By Her Side Is The Best Thing

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The sun shone, but a faint layer of fog lingered around Divine Dragon Village.

When the first ray of golden sun shone over, it gently landed on the bed through the window.

Coincidentally, it was shining on Gu Nuo’er’s tightly shut eyes, making her already slender black eyelashes look like they were covered in a faint golden light.

The child felt a little uncomfortable under the light. Her soft fingers moved, but she didn’t raise them.

She was still asleep. Her skin was snow-white, her hair black, and her face was round, tender, and fair.

Her pink lips muttered in dissatisfaction.

“Mother… Sunny…” Gu Nuo’er muttered.

A slender palm reached out from the bed and blocked the child’s cheek.

The feeling of being burned by the hot light disappeared and Gu Nuo’er’s tightly furrowed brows relaxed.

Her sleeping face became sweet and obedient again.

Ye Siming lay on the inside, supporting his head with one hand and shielding her from the sun with the other.

His slightly open clothes vaguely revealed his good-looking collarbone line as he stretched out his arm.

At this moment, Ye Siming’s black hair was draped over his shoulders, and the sharpness had faded a lot.

His long eyebrows reached his temples and his thin eyes were smiling, making him look even more youthful and lazy.

Ye Siming focused on Gu Nuo’er’s pink face. Even though the environment was unfamiliar, she slept soundly.

Was it because he was by her side that she felt so at ease?

Ye Siming suddenly felt that it was good to be like this with the child.

The world was his home. The world was so big. With her by his side, he felt that everything was worth anticipating.

He hoped that she would be there at every moment in his life.

Ye Siming suddenly had an instinct to approach.

He quietly leaned over, moved his palm away, and gently kissed Gu Nuo’er’s glabella.

There was no one else here. Only the sunshine knew how quickly the youth’s heart was beating.

After that, he raised his hand for as long as the child slept.

An hour later, Gu Nuo’er finally woke up.

The child rubbed her eyes with her soft hands, stretched her limbs, and let out a long yawn.

A small black figure rolled off her body and onto the ground because of her actions.

“Aiya! Elder Brother Siming!” Gu Nuo’er quickly sat up and picked up the little black wolf that had fallen.

She patted the wolf fur with her soft hand.

The little black wolf also seemed to have just woken up. It opened its mouth and yawned.

Then, his black and deep wolf eyes stared fixedly at Gu Nuo’er.

Gu Nuo’er smiled sweetly. She reached out her chubby feet and put on her shoes.

“Let’s go, I’ll bring you to wash up!”

The child ran to the door and called out, “Dudu, Gugu, who’s here?”

Yuan Gu’s reply came from the carriage outside. “Your Highness, the governor has gone to the village chief’s house. What instructions do you have?”

“Bring me hot water. I want to wash my face.”

“Yes.”

After a while, Yuan Gu knocked on the door. “The hot water is here.”

Gu Nuo’er pushed open the door.

Yuan Gu brought in a basin of warm water. From the beginning to the end, he lowered his head and didn’t dare to look at Gu Nuo’er, maintaining his etiquette.

The little black wolf in Gu Nuo’er’s arms had been squinting its wolf eyes. Only then did it relax a little.

If Yuan Gu had dared to look around just now, Ye Siming would have dug out his eyes.

Yuan Gu placed the copper basin on the stool and left.

Gu Nuo’er splashed water with her small hands and washed her face first.

Then, she considerately wet the little black wolf’s entire face.

Ye Siming was speechless.

Gu Nuo’er looked at the little black wolf’s wet wolf fur and couldn’t help but laugh.
