The Tyrant Father’s Pampered Daughter

567 Accidentally Biting The Child’s Fingertip

Zhuang Miaoyin heard Grand Preceptor Du’s words from her seat.

She pursed her lips in dissatisfaction and whispered sarcastically.

“Pearls aren’t something rare and precious, so how can they be considered a good omen?”

The jade pendant she had given him had been bought with a lot of money after she had gone through a lot of connections.

She didn’t expect that her gift would be seen as being inferior to an ordinary pearl!

At the thought of this, Zhuang Miaoyin complained, “I don’t know who it is, but they got this advantage for free.”

When Zhuang Ruoyun heard this, she lowered her head even more.

What she had gifted was a pearl.

However, because she didn’t have much money, the quality of the pearl was very poor.

However, it was the best thing she had.

If her father hadn’t said that she had to bring a gift, she definitely wouldn’t have been willing to give away that pearl.

In a while, if Grand Preceptor Du opened it in public and showed everyone her unpresentable small pearl…

Then everyone would definitely wonder what kind of good omen this was.

Not only would it embarrass Grand Preceptor Du, but she would also lose her face completely.

Zhuang Ruoyun could only pray that someone else had gifted a pearl of an even higher quality!

“The Grace Defender Duke gifted a pair of qilin jade banquet cups on behalf of his entire family!”

“Marquis Yongye gifted a longevity jade pine tree on behalf of General Bai’s family!”

“The little princess gifted a piece of Heart Protecting Jade!”

As the attendant opened the gifts, someone registered at the side.

When Grand Preceptor Du heard this, he couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

“I just like the gift sweetheart gifted me. I’ve gotten old. This Heart Protecting Jade will definitely bless me with safety!”

Gu Nuo’er was holding a piece of juicy orange with thin skin in her two small hands and was eating happily.

She didn’t forget to break off a piece and raised her small hand to feed Ye Siming.

Ye Siming lowered his head and bit the piece of orange. Unexpectedly, he accidentally bit the child’s fingertips as well.

Fortunately, the force was relatively light. Ye Siming felt the soft flesh touch his lips.

He immediately looked up at the child’s expression.

As expected, Gu Nuo’er pouted and blinked her big eyes at him pitifully.

Did she think that he was going to bite her small hand?

Ye Siming sneered softly and bit the orange, causing juice to flow out. A few drops immediately flowed down the child’s fair fingertips.

He let go and Gu Nuo’er quickly retracted her small hand.

Looking at her pitiful and red index finger, she felt even more aggrieved!

It was no wonder Elder Sister Wanyin always said that one had to be careful with their fingers when feeding big meow.

When cats and dogs eat, they might accidentally bite you!

Gu Nuo’er thought to herself that Elder Sister Wanyin wasn’t lying to her!

Ye Siming quietly wrapped a handkerchief around Gu Nuo’er’s fingertip.

He gently gave her a massage through the handkerchief.

It could be considered an apology for his carelessness just now.

After the child was comforted, she quickly had a cheerful expression on her face.

She continued to eat the orange and looked in Grand Preceptor Du’s direction, quietly waiting for the show to start.

The attendant beside Grand Preceptor Du opened an ordinary-looking box. The attendant paused.

Then, he said to Grand Preceptor Du, “Master, it’s a pearl.”

Grand Preceptor Du stroked his beard and smiled faintly. “Oh? Which esteemed guest gifted it?”

The attendant picked up the note that was pasted on the bottom and read it out loud. “The Zhuang Family’s eldest daughter, Miss Zhuang Ruoyun.”

The guests below immediately couldn’t help but mutter—

“It’s actually a girl?”

“The Zhuang Family has an older daughter? I’ve always thought that they only have one daughter.”

“I heard that the eldest daughter was born ugly and had a bad illness, so she was sent away. She had likely been brought back recently!”

“What a waste. A girl doesn’t enter the imperial court. Even if she receives the Grand Preceptor’s guidance, what’s the use of that?”

However, Grand Preceptor Du’s expression was calm. “Where is Eldest Young Miss Zhuang?”

Gu Nuo’er also turned to look at the banquet.

Her casual words actually pointed out to someone?
