Translator: Atlas Studios| Editor: Atlas Studios

After dinner.

A large cloud of red clouds receded, and a strong wind blew from an unknown direction.

It covered the stars that had just appeared in the sky.

The endless night drove away the heat of the summer and the air was filled with the smell of rain.

After a while, heavy rain suddenly poured.

Ling Tianyin was originally walking along the palace path to relax. His guards followed from afar.

However, when the heavy rain suddenly came, he could only walk to the corridor at the side and wait for the rain to stop with his hands behind his back.

Looking at the endless night sky, Ling Tianyin let out a heavy sigh.

His deep eyes were filled with worry.

Yun Linzhou’s words echoed in his ears a few times.

Could it be that allowing Marquis Yongye to stay was really a wrong decision?

He was deep in thought.

However, a soft voice approached on such a rainy night.

Ling Tianyin’s attention was attracted and he listened.

She seemed to be singing.

“A small frog, croak, croak, croak. A small fish, gulp gulp gulp. “Ask them why they’re happy. They say it’s because it’s raining.”

Ling Tianyin frowned.

He looked at a small figure not far away, carrying a big oil-paper umbrella.

Her two legs skipped around, stepping on puddles as she played in the heavy

rain.

Gu Nuo’er sensed Ling Tianyin’s gaze and the child stopped in her tracks and turned around.

“Eh?” Gu Nuo’er tilted her head, her watery eyes flickering. Her black hair made her face look even fairer and more delicate.

“Emperor Ling, so you’re here. I’ve finally found you.”

Ling Tianyin frowned. “Why are you looking for me?”

Gu Nuo’er pointed at the sky with her small hand and hugged the big oil-paper umbrella with difficulty.

“It’s because it’s raining. I was afraid that it would be difficult for you to walk to Qinghe Hall, so I specially came to pick you up.”

Ling Tianyin was stunned.

He looked at the child with a strange and puzzled gaze.

A six or seven-year-old child said that she was here to pick him up?

Gu Nuo’er carried the umbrella and walked towards him.

The child beckoned with her hand. “Here, take the umbrella.”

Ling Tianyin didn’t move at all. He crossed his arms and frowned, looking down at this child.

She was really petite, so in comparison, it seemed a little strenuous for her to carry the oil-paper umbrella in her arms.

Seeing that he wasn’t moving, Gu Nuo’er pouted.

Her dark and bright eyes were filled with a spoiled and complaining expression.

“Aiya, just hold it for a while. My shoes are wet from looking for you.

“I’m still very young and too short. I can’t hold an umbrella for you.

“You can hold it for me first this time. I’ll hold an umbrella for you next time when I’ve grown up.”

Ling Tianyin shifted his gaze.

He saw that the front of the child’s pink shoes was indeed a darker color from having gotten wet.

She was jumping around. It would be strange if she didn’t get wet from stepping on the puddles.

No matter how unwilling Ling Tianyin was, he felt that there was no need to argue with a child.

He took the umbrella and raised it above Gu Nuo’er’s head.

The child consciously grabbed the sleeve of his dragon robe.

“Let’s go!” She blinked her watery eyes and instructed. Ling Tianyin followed her out of the long corridor.

However, after taking a few steps, he reacted.

Strange, did he say that he was leaving?!

Why should he listen to her?!

However, the child grabbed his sleeve tightly.

She would look up at him from time to time with sparkling eyes.

Ling Tianyin had many daughters, but none of them dared to be so close to him.

The fourth princess, Ling Qingge, who was born by the Empress, had the most carefree and unrestrained personality.

However, in front of him, she spoke softly and was as obedient as a cat!

They were all afraid of him.

However, Gu Nuo’er, who was at the side, didn’t seem afraid of him at all. She jumped around him. When she encountered a puddle she would jump over it.

However, her small hands kept holding onto his sleeve tightly..
