Zhuang You seemed only focused on talking to Chen Zhixian, but how could she really ignore her little darling? She kept glancing at her out of the corner of her eye.
The little boy puffed up his cheeks, his dark eyes, like black grapes, darted around, and hearing the arrogant laughter of the eunuchs outside, he gave a fierce snort, then jumped off the soft couch and ran out in a flash.
When Chen Zhixian saw the little boy go out, her eyelids twitched in fright. She didn't care whether her clothes were wet or not, and she was about to chase after him, calling out, "Niannian! Niannian, come back quickly!"
Although the little dumpling was small, his short legs made him run like the wind. In the blink of an eye, that chubby little figure darted out of Chen Zhixian's sight.
Seeing that she couldn't catch up, Chen Zhixian anxiously urged Tingyun and Tingyue, "Hurry up and chase after her! Don't let Niannian get bullied!"
These palace stewards are notoriously difficult to deal with. Even though the little princess is from Hengchang, how can a child be a match for these cunning and venomous snakes?
Who knows what those bastards might do? What if they're afraid of being exposed for gambling and go so far as to harm Cha Nian? They could just bury her in her yard and get away with it all.
Chen Zhixian's face turned pale with fright, but Zhuang You smiled and wasn't worried at all. She even stopped Tingyun and Tingyue, who were about to run out.
"You two ladies don't need to worry about our little princess. If anything happens to you, just do it yourself. Our little princess will be fine," Zhuangyou said with a smile, showing no concern whatsoever.
If these skinny eunuchs could catch their little darling, then the guards in their mansion who were specifically responsible for following the little one wouldn't have to wail every day.
Tingyun and Tingyue exchanged a glance, then met Zhuangyou's calm gaze. They hesitated and stopped, turning their eyes to Chen Zhixian.
Chen Zhixian had no idea what the little girl was capable of. She was terribly worried and grabbed Zhuangyou as she walked out, saying, "Miss Zhuangyou doesn't know how ruthless these eunuchs are! These people are ruthless! Even if Nian Nian is a little princess, they might still dare to do it!"
Seeing Chen Zhixian's reckless attitude, Zhuang You's brows softened even more. She stopped in her tracks, which immediately forced Chen Zhixian to stop as well.
"Your Highness Miaoliu, please rest assured. We must let them know that our little princess is not to be trifled with, otherwise they will all be reckless and dare to challenge us."
This time, Chen Zhixian finally listened to Zhuang You's words. Zhuang You's strength startled her, and she turned around to look at Zhuang You in surprise.
Chen Zhixian stared in astonishment at the graceful Zhuang You in front of her, her slender waist and delicate face possessing such strength.
"You—" Chen Zhixian opened her mouth, her eyes wide with surprise.
Zhuangyou smiled faintly and said nothing. Instead, she beckoned Tingyun over and said, "Quickly take your mistress to change her clothes. I'm going to see our little princess."
Please don't torture them to the point of injury. The pampered eunuchs in the palace can't withstand as much abuse as the guards in the mansion!
This time, Chen Zhixian finally listened to Zhuang You and changed her clothes first, but she was still worried about the little boy and kept an eye on the movements outside.
When Tingyun was helping Chen Zhixian change her clothes, she first gave Tingyue a look.
So Tingyue went out with Zhuangyou, but Zhuangyou stopped at the door, while Tingyue went out through the side gate, and it was unclear who she was going to invite.
