Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After an unknown period of time, Wei Cang called out softly from outside the carriage again.

Your Highness.

Gu Nuoer had already fallen asleep with the wolf cubs body as her pillow.

Hearing this, her thick eyelashes fluttered. It took her a long time to rub her misty eyes and sit up.

Dudu? Have you found the way? The child lifted the curtain of the carriage.

Wei Cang nodded and said in a low voice, The scout we sent out encountered a nearby villager.

He said that this is the only path in the past. Ill leave a few guards here to move the gravel, making s.p.a.ce for the carriage to pa.s.s through.

Before this is completed, lets go to their village to stay for the night.

After Wei Cang finished speaking, he saw that the black wolf cub had jumped into Gu Nuoers arms.

It sat steadily in the childs arms.

When it heard Wei Cangs words, a trace of human-like disdain flashed across its black spiritual eyes.

Wei Cang looked at it fixedly and saw that the little black wolf was sitting calmly as if what he had seen earlier was just his imagination.

Gu Nuoer hugged the wolfie tightly with her small hands and said, Alright then, Ill listen to Dudus arrangements.

However The child was a little puzzled and stuck her head out of the carriage window. The moon has already gone to sleep at this hour. Why are there still villagers wandering outside?

Gu Nuoer looked to her right. Not far away, a guard was holding a torch and talking to a villager holding a lantern.

The villager was over 50 years old and wasnt too old. He was wearing simple clothes and looked extremely ordinary.

He was also carrying a basket in his hand.

Wei Cang also had this doubt just now, but after asking the villager, he received an explanation.

That villager said that he originally wanted to rush to a nearby town to sell eggs before dawn.

Gu Nuoer blinked her watery eyes and nodded to express her understanding.

Coincidentally, at this moment, the villager turned to look in the childs direction.

His gaze carefully sized up Gu Nuoer.

Gu Nuoers sleeve was bitten by the little black wolf, so the child had no choice but to retract her head back into the carriage.

Outside, Wei Cang arranged for 30 to 40 soldiers to move the rocks.

They had to strive to be able to set off at dawn.

The remaining people would accompany him to protect the princess and temporarily stay in the nearby village to rest for the night.

They would also need to feed their horses and replenish rations.

Gu Nuoer felt the carriage turn.

The little black wolf jumped out of her arms and sat at the side, its small body very stable.

However, his words revealed Ye Simings familiar disdain and ridicule.

A mere general from the Xili Empire cant even see through such a trick. Hes really stupid.

Gu Nuoers round eyes immediately lit up.

Elder Brother Siming, theres something wrong with this villager, right?

Elder Brother Siming, theres something wrong with this villager, right?

As if to match his current wolf cubs height, Gu Nuoer lay on the floor and rested her chin on her two small hands.

She blinked her watery eyes, her eyelashes long and fluttering like b.u.t.terfly feathers.

She raised her two small feet behind her and swayed them, looking relaxed and content.

Ye Siming couldnt help but think of how things went when Wei Cang had come so suddenly just now.

He turned back into his wolf form and was stuffed under her dress.

It made him so embarra.s.sed that he almost couldnt find a way out.

Thinking back to just now, an unnatural look flashed across his black wolf eyes.

His small wolf tail swayed unconsciously.

Dont ask. Just hold onto me tightly if you are afraid and dont leave me at any time.

Gu Nuoer reached out her small hand and gently covered his little wolf paw.

Its a deal! The child smiled, her eyes curved, and her fair face was delicate and cute.

Elder Brother Siming, no matter what, I wont leave you, she said softly.

Ye Siming was stunned.

She said that she would never leave him.
