2299 Salvation 3 (1/2)

The interior of the house was quite bright, and a woman was holding the baby while sweating profusely. Meanwhile, the kid cried like a donkey. His small face was red as an apple. Apparently, he cried very hard. When she saw Gu Xijiu come in, the woman saluted her.

”Did you dare abuse him?! Why is he crying this way?”

The woman kneeled. ”No! I have been treating him very well. I would not dare to abuse him.”

”Is he hungry?”

”He doesn't want to drink any milk.” The woman wanted to cry. ”I have found him the best nurse in the city. We have given him sufficient milk, but he still closed his eyes and was not willing to drink it. I tried feeding him forcibly but was unsuccessful.”

Gu Xijiu looked at the little doll. The little doll still cried with his small mouth, but his eyes focused on Gu Xijiu now. As their eyes met each other's, the little doll's eyelashes curved upward as if he was smiling.

Of course, his smile disappeared very quickly, but the two small hands reached out to her as if he was asking for a hug. Gu Xijiu understood it! This little doll did it deliberately! He deliberately cried out loud to make the princess annoyed. This was the only way he could be brought to such a remote place.

His crying was also convenient for those who wanted to come and save him as it was easy to find him with his loud cries. To think that such a little infant was able to use such a tactic, one surely wondered who his parents were. Gu Xijiu suddenly envied the mother of this little kid. Who wouldn't be happy to have such a smart baby?

Gu Xijiu reached out and said, ”I will hug him and try.”

That woman was shocked. Servant Ye had always hated children. Whenever she heard kids crying, she would get mad. What was wrong this time?

”Miss Ye, this child is very naughty. I am afraid that he will annoy you...”

Gu Xijiu did not respond. The kid suddenly waved his arm and slammed his hand on the woman's face. That woman was stunned, and at that point, Gu Xijiu had taken the child over into her embrace.

It's strange to say that the little doll just stopped crying when he was in Gu Xijiu's arms; he looked at Gu Xijiu with a pair of big round eyes and was extremely adorable.
