Gu Nuo’er puffed up her pink cheeks and widened her eyes.
“Fifth Brother, what did the little fish do wrong?!” She covered her eyes with her small hands. “No, no, I don’t want to see that! I’m scared!”
Gu Zichen pursed his lips and chuckled. His expression softened.
“Alright, if you don’t like it, I won’t do it.”
When he was alone, he could live a despicable and dark life.
However, now that he had his sister by his side, he couldn’t always think of harming others.
He had to leave a good memory for his sister’s childhood. She shouldn’t be like him, who had been ignored and treated coldly by others when he was young.
Gu Nuo’er looked up, her eyes watery and her face round and fair.
“However, Fifth Brother, this Uncle Wang Fu isn’t a good person either. You don’t have to get close to him. I think he won’t be able to work for long before Father removes him from his position!”
He was really lawless to expect Hang Tongfu to open a back door for him in front of the prince.
Gu Zichen smiled elegantly and said, “Oh? Sister is good at judging people, so I think that must be the case. It’s just a pity that I originally prepared a ‘big gift’ for Wang Fu. It seems that I only need to give him a portion and there’s no need for the later half.”
Gu Nuo’er blinked curiously. “Brother even prepared a gift for Uncle Wang Fu? What is it?”
Gu Zichen turned his head and looked indifferently at the inconspicuous small boat following behind their pleasure boat.
His tone was calm. “I was planning to gift him with three bandits.”
Gu Nuo’er widened her eyes and quickly followed Gu Zichen’s gaze to look at the small boat over there.
The boat’s canopy was covered by a green curtain.
At this moment, a man with a fierce expression lifted the curtain halfway and looked at their pleasure boat.
It seemed that as long as Gu Zichen gave the order, they would be able to immediately get on the pleasure boat.
Gu Zichen explained with a faint smile, “I originally wanted to let these three bandits board the pleasure boat and bash him up before saving his life.
“In this way, not only would I have done him a favor, but I’ll also take revenge for his contempt back then. However, since Sister said that he’s about to be useless, I naturally don’t have to save him anymore.”
He pursed his lips. “Let the bandits bash him up. Sister can just watch the show with me.”
Gu Nuo’er scratched the tip of her nose with her small hand and looked at a certain spot on the pleasure boat. She asked in a soft and puzzled voice, “Then, were the two uncles who were peeping at us behind the sternpost also found by Fifth Brother?”
Gu Zichen frowned and looked over.
There were indeed two sneaky men standing in the direction Gu Nuo’er had mentioned.
They hid behind the sternpost, their gazes cold and ruthless.
Looking down, he could still vaguely see the tip of a blade.
Under the sunlight, it was bright.
“I only found three bandits. I don’t know these people.” Gu Zichen’s frown deepened. He subconsciously shielded his sister behind him.
Gu Nuo’er grabbed her brother’s sleeve with her small hands, there was no fear in her big eyes.
She opened her pink lips. “Oh, it looks like these people might also be here to beat up Uncle Wang Fu.”
The men over there knew that Gu Nuo’er and Gu Zichen had seen them.
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, they immediately held sharp blades and walked quickly toward the siblings.
It was only when they came out that Gu Nuo’er saw that there were six to seven of them!
Everyone had fierce expressions. It was obvious that they had come prepared.
Gu Zichen immediately carried Gu Nuo’er in his arms. The bandit at the front was the first to slash at the fifth prince.
Gu Nuo’er hugged her brother’s neck with her small hands and widened her eyes, her long eyelashes fluttering. She wasn’t afraid at all.
At this critical moment, Gu Zichen’s slender fingers caught the blade that was about to fall.
His movements were steady, and his eyes were slightly cold.
The child couldn’t help but clap gently.
It turned out that her fifth brother’s skills were not bad either!
