The day after Sisi put on her little cotton-padded jacket, winter officially arrived. Winter in the north is always much colder than in the south.

When she got out of bed, she felt like the most pitiful doll in the world, bar none.

Listening to the howling wind outside the window, Sisi felt even more sorry for the six-year-old's difficult life.

She lifted her little face, sniffed, and looked at Yue'er with a pitiful and aggrieved expression. "Sister Yue'er, can Sisi not go to school?"

Yue'er was both amused and exasperated. While dressing the little girl, she replied, "No, little princess."

"Please hold on for one more day, little princess. Yesterday, Young Master Jinghua told me that the Imperial Academy will be closed for a period of time starting tomorrow. If we go again, we'll have to wait until next spring."

Happiness came so suddenly! Suddenly, Sisi perked up – vacation time!?

Oh my God!

"Sister Yue'er, is this true?"

The little girl was so happy that her face lit up and her eyes shone, and her soft, sweet voice rose several octaves.

"It's true. If the little princess doesn't believe me, she can ask Young Master Jinghua."

Yue'er smiled and said, "You've put on your little cotton-padded jacket and shoes!" No sooner could Si Si sit still than she toddled out of the hall, her little feet dangling impatiently.

"Little silly boy, where are you rushing off to?"

Sisi was so excited, the little one just kept her head down and ran forward, when suddenly she was picked up. Before her little feet could react, she wobbled twice in mid-air.

Upon seeing Si Bei Tao Hua's excessively beautiful face, Si Si's mood that morning was simply wonderful.

"Oh, my fairy brother, *smack*!"

"You little rascal."

Si Beitao pinched Si Si's cheek without any hesitation. She wondered what kind of girl she used to be.

Who is this girl who gets shy and calls me "Fairy Sister" when she sees me? In just seven days, she's become so disrespectful.

Si Beitao carried Helian Si into the hall. Nan Rongjinghua was already seated inside. When the two entered,

The deity's brows furrowed slightly, especially when his eyes, hidden beneath long silk robes, fell upon Si Beitaohua; his brows furrowed even more deeply.

Seven days have passed, why hasn't this person left yet?

Si Beitaohua seemed to have read Nan Rongjinghua's mind, and deliberately tightened her grip on the little girl's arm.

A pair of fox-like eyes looked at Nan Rong Jinghua, her chin slightly raised, a blatant provocation.

So what? This little idiot just likes my face and wants to be close to me. Kid, you're not happy about that?

The thought that she was indeed leaving today sent a chill down Si Beitao's spine: No, this won't do.

It's obvious at a glance that Nan Rong Jinghua has ulterior motives towards Xiao Hanhan. He'll definitely have to have a good talk with Helian Nie about this.

Good morning, Master.

The girl, feeling delighted with her immortal brother, remembered what Sister Yue'er had just said and asked her again, still not believing it.

After receiving an affirmative answer, the baby was overjoyed, and the smile on its little face almost stretched to the back of its ears.

No need to go to school tomorrow! No need to go to school tomorrow! Hoo hoo hoo~!

"Little silly boy, I'm leaving today."

Seeing that Si Si was laughing happily, Si Bei Tao Hua coughed lightly and brought up the fact that she was leaving.

"Okay, okay, wait, what did you say, fairy brother? The wind is too strong, I didn't hear you clearly."

The doll was stunned. The smile that stretched all the way to the back of her ears froze. She turned her little head and looked at Si Beitaohua in disbelief.
