Xu Miaomiao came back to her senses. Perhaps it was Gu Yuan's mother's comfort that gave her a lot of strength. Xu Miaomiao let go of Erbao, who had been tightly hugged by her. Erbao also stopped sobbing. However, his eyes were still slightly red, and it could be seen that he had just cried. Xu Miaomiao did not say much, but touched Erbao's cheek distressedly.

"Madam Gu, the young lady is in great distress. Mr. Xu can't control her anymore, so he asked you to come over quickly."

Xiao Si came over in a hurry to report, and seeing that Gu Yuan's mother's face was a little anxious, he immediately spoke.

Hearing this, Gu Yuan's mother looked at Xu Miaomiao beside her. Well, she should leave time for the mother and daughter. Gu Yuan's mother did not say much, but just glanced at them quietly, and then left in a hurry with Xiao Si.

"I'm sorry." Xu Miaomiao's eyes were also red. She smoothed down Erbao's messy hair, looked at her and continued, "Today, mother was busy looking after little brother and didn't have time to take care of your feelings. It's mother's fault. Mother has never blamed Erbao."

Erbao sobbed twice when he heard this, and then nodded reluctantly: "Mom, is my brother really okay?"

Xu Miaomiao acted out the tears in her heart and nodded reluctantly to Erbao: "Of course, mother is here. You have seen how powerful mother is. There is no injury that mother can't cure."

"Well, Erbao believes in mother."

After hearing Xu Miaomiao's comfort, the little girl finally stopped crying and nodded to Xu Miaomiao: "Then I'll go back to see Xiaobao."

"Forget it." Xu Miaomiao said immediately, holding Erbao who was about to leave, looking at her and said: "Mother just treated Xiaobao, and now Xiaobao is already asleep, so let's not disturb him. Mother will take you home and tell you a story tonight, okay?"

"Well, I like the stories my mother tells the most."

Erbao nodded, put all the unpleasantness behind him, happily took Xu Miaomiao's hand and left immediately.

“Plop——”

Suddenly there was a sound behind them. Xu Miaomiao and Erbao looked over immediately and heard that the sound came from the corner. Erbao nervously held Xu Miaomiao's hand. After what happened today, Xu Miaomiao was also much more alert. He immediately shouted to the shadow not far away: "Who, who is there!"

There was still silence. Erbao suddenly let go of Xu Miaomiao's hand, picked up a wooden stick, and stood in front of Xu Miaomiao, trying to be brave. "Don't be afraid, mother. I will protect you."

Xu Miaomiao didn't say anything, but she saw the pink dress in the corner. She shook her head helplessly and pulled Erbao away: "It's nothing, just a little wild cat. Mommy will take you back to the house first. Don't let the wild cat scratch your hand, that would be bad."

"Um."

Erbao naturally had no idea what had happened and actually thought it was just a little wild cat, so he didn't take it to heart anymore and pulled Xu Miaomiao away. His mother hadn't told her stories for a long time, so how could she delay that because of a wild cat?

Seeing the two people thinking about each other getting farther and farther away, Nan Zhi, who was hiding in the corner, finally dared to come out. She took a deep breath and relaxed. Nangong didn't allow her to run around. Besides, she would leave tomorrow. But Xiaobao was injured because of him. If she didn't come to see him, she would be worried.

Based on her memory of playing in the yard during the day, Nan Zhi remembered that Xiao Bao's house was here, so she chose to come in from here. She stepped on the haystack outside and finally climbed in with great effort. But who knew that the wall was built so high that she sprained her foot when she jumped down just now. Now she could only limp along in pain and could not move at all.

Nan Zhi quietly pushed the door open, crouched and turned around quietly, but as soon as she turned around, she saw a pair of eyes in front of her staring at her. Nan Zhi was startled, and after realizing it was Xiao Bao, she patted her chest and let go.

"Little mute, why haven't you gone to bed yet? Looking at me like this is really scary."

Nan Zhi walked towards Xiao Bao while talking, and took out a bottle of medicine from her sleeve: "This is the most precious medicine in the palace. My father gave me one to protect myself. This time I'll give it to you."

Nan Zhi opened the medicine box, and a black pill fell out. She then poured a glass of water and walked to Xiao Bao, wanting to feed him. However, Xiao Bao turned his head away proudly and did not look at Nan Zhi.

"I'm fine. This thing is so precious, how can I just give it away like this? Keep it for yourself, just in case you need it in the future."

"I know you're great, but this is just a little gift from me, so just eat it, okay?"

Hearing Nan Zhi's coquettish tone, Xiao Bao was stunned for a moment, but in this moment of daze, Nan Zhi actually stuffed the medicine directly into Xiao Bai's mouth and forced him to eat it. Xiao Bao had no choice but to swallow it because of the foreign body sensation in his mouth.

Nan Zhi looked at him so hard that his face turned red. He turned his head away and could not utter a word.

"Hey, little mute, I climbed over the wall just for you. As a princess, why would I need to be so sneaky? I actually did such a thing for you. Don't say that it's because you saved me, otherwise I wouldn't have come here."

When Nan Zhi said this, she was a little arrogant, raised her chin, and looked a little proud.

When Xiaobao heard this, he stood there in a daze, without saying a word. After a long while, he managed to utter, "So, you came here because I saved you? If it was someone else who saved you today, would you have gone to someone else's yard?"

Nan Zhi didn't quite understand what Xiao Bao said, but pouted and said, "What are you talking about? If it were anyone else, I would have rewarded him with some gold, silver, and jewelry, or given him a promotion. There are so many ways to reward him, why would I need to come and see him in person? I came here today because I'm worried about you."

When Xiao Bao heard this, even though his back was facing Nan Zhi, he slightly raised the corners of his mouth, with an unstoppable smile.

"How did you get in through such a high wall? Why didn't you go directly through the main gate? Are you injured?"

Although he was very young, Nan Zhi always felt that this brother, who was one year younger than her, was much more mature than her. He asked so many questions that she didn't know which one to answer for a moment.

"It's because Mr. Nangong doesn't allow me to go out, but I'm worried about you, so I can only use this method."
