Chapter 1595 - So Dependant
“I’m doing nothing!”
Ying Bao was sitting there, staring blankly.
“Are you upset?” he asked.
Ying Bao nodded. “Brother Xuanye, I suddenly realize how boring it is to be a princess. Did you feel the same when you were a prince?”
“Absolutely. Be it a prince, a princess, or even a king, it’s equally boring. But we’ve got no choice. Someone has to take the responsibility.”
Huangpu Xuanye stood up and reached out his hand. “Come with me, Cherry, to the Northland. I’ll show you lots of interesting things. We can go skiing, dog sledding, make snowmen and have snowball fights… Would you like to come?”
Ying Bao found his proposal interesting. “Sure! I want to. But will daddy allow it?”
“It should be fine. Let me talk to him.”
When Huangpu Xuanye was about to leave with Ying Bao, he was surprised at the sight of a figure from some distance. “Cherry, is that your mother? Has she come back?”
Ying Bao shook her head and answered, “No. She’s my brother’s new nanny, who looks similar to my mommy from the back.”
Then she sighed. “How I wish my mother was back!”
“I see. let’s go.”
Huangpu Xuanye did not want her to be trapped in the sadness and took her out of the garden.
They found Huo Yunshen and told him about their plan. Huo Yunshen thought for a while and asked, “Cherry, do you want to go?”
“Daddy, I do. May I?”
“Sure, if you want to. Ask Auntie Lan to help you pack,” Huo Yunshen replied.
“I see. Thank you, daddy.”
“Xuanye, take good care of Cherry.”
“I surely will, Uncle Huo.” Huangpu Xuanye was excited and took Ying Bao to find Auntie Lan right away.
Instead of getting hold of Auntie Lan, they only found Jin Xiaoxi, who had come back with Little Grape. Ying Bao asked, “Auntie Xiaoxi, did you see Auntie Lan?”
“Auntie Lan had to go out for a while. Is there anything I can help you with, Your Highness?” Jing Xi asked.
“I’m going to the Northland and have to pack.”
“Sure, let me help.”
Ying Bao did not reject it. So Jing Xi took Little Grape and followed them to the princess’ room.
She opened the closet and found a pretty pink suitcase. Then she started packing under Ying Bao’s instructions.
Ying Bao stared blankly at her as if she was looking at her mother packing for her.
Little Grape wondered why his sister was packing. “Sister, where are you going?”
“To the Northland. Are you coming with me?”
“No way! There’s no Auntie Xiaoxi in the Northland!”
Little Grape cuddled Jing Xi’s leg as if he was afraid that his sister would drag him away.
“Forget about it. You unweaned baby. You’d better stay at home!” Ying Bao teased him.
“Who are you calling unweaned? I was weaned long ago!” Little Grape said, defending himself.
“Were you? Then how come you are still so dependant on Auntie Xiaoxi? Some boy would not eat properly without his Auntie Xiaoxi. Who is that?”
Hearing his sister picking on him in front of the others, Little Grape was very annoyed. He clasped his hands behind his back and snorted, “Humph! Bad sister! I’m not talking to you anymore!”
“Miser boy!” Ying Bao scrunched her nose.
“You miser girl!” Little Grape fought back.
Seeing the two children quarreling, Jing Xi could not help but laugh at them.
