Chapter 1014: I Want to Bring This Wolf Along

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Wei Cang despised Yuan Gu for being timid.

He lowered his voice. “Carry this wolf cub to the side. Don’t let the princess hear about this. Otherwise…”

Suddenly, a delicate figure suddenly darted out from behind Wei Cang.

Gu Nuo’er’s small face was filled with joy. “It’s a wolf cub!”

She ran over and carried the wolf cub in her arms, ignoring Wei Cang and Yuan Gu’s advice.

The wolf cub, who was still expressionless as if it had been frozen just now, immediately swayed its ears.

It reached out its small paws and pushed Gu Nuo’er’s hand, then obediently let her carry it in her arms.

Wei Cang had a headache.

He didn’t want Gu Nuo’er to know.

Otherwise, she would definitely make a fuss and want to take the wolf cub along.

Unexpectedly, he didn’t even notice that the child had run out of the carriage just now!

Gu Nuo’er pinched the black wolf’s ear and then its paw.

The child’s face was filled with joy.

She looked up. “Dudu, I want to bring it along!”

“No.” Wei Cang retorted, “Wolves are fierce by nature. If you don’t raise them well, they’ll hurt Your Highness’s precious body.

“Moreover, its mother might be nearby. If we take the child away and the female wolf comes looking for us, it’ll be extremely dangerous to us since wolves tend to be in packs.”

Gu Nuo’er puffed up her pink cheeks. “It’s still young. It’s definitely possible to raise it. Besides, can’t we just run faster?”

The child said pitifully, “Besides, Dudu, look. There’s dew on its paws and fur.

“This means that it has been sitting here for a long time. If it really has a mother, why hasn’t the mother not come to look for it after so long?”

Gu Nuo’er sniffed, her sparkling eyes also covered in a layer of mist.

She lowered her head and pressed her face against the wolf cub’s forehead.

“Little wolfie, you’re also homeless for the time being like me, right?”

The black wolf didn’t retort and only patted her small chubby face with its paws.

What she said completely touched the only soft spot in Wei Cang’s heart.

Sigh, no matter how smart Princess Yaoguang was, she was still a child…

“Then… alright.” Wei Cang hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement.

Gu Nuo’er immediately swept away her weak and pitiful appearance from before and jumped up in joy. “Dudu is awesome!”

Yuan Gu smiled foolishly. He took out his dried meat jerky from his waist pouch and handed them to Gu Nuo’er.

“Perhaps the wolf likes it. Your Highness can feed them to it.”

“Gugu, you’re really good~” Gu Nuo’er took the jerky and turned around happily, returning to the carriage.

Wei Cang shook his head and sighed.

Yuan Gu patted his shoulder with a smile and comforted him. “At least with this wolf cub, the princess will have something to play with and won’t keep disturbing you.”

Wei Cang didn’t answer. He only raised his hand and instructed them to continue on their way.

In the carriage, Gu Nuo’er sat opposite Ye Siming.

The child crossed her arms, her eyes delicate, and her voice was low and soft. “Elder Brother Siming! Don’t change back. Let me touch your ears again.”

As she spoke, she reached out her small hand, wanting to pinch his right ear.

Ye Siming grabbed the child’s finger.

There was still a little dew on the youth’s eyebrows.

He raised his eyebrows. “You recognized me so quickly just now?”

Gu Nuo’er raised her small chin, a hint of pride appearing on her pink face.

“Of course. I’ve already engraved Elder Brother Siming’s appearance in my heart. Even through the fog just now, I knew that it was you.”

Ye Siming pursed his thin lips slightly, wanting to suppress the smile on his lips.

However, joy flowed out of the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, making the youth’s handsome face look even more extraordinary.

“There’s danger ahead. I was afraid that I wouldn’t be able to protect you in time, so I had to come up with this plan,” he explained.

If it wasn’t for Gu Nuo’er, he wouldn’t have endured the humiliation and become so small again.
