A Cutie Spoiled by Her Seven Uncles-Chapter 887 - 784: Some Things We Need to Take Slowly

"She’s still young, are you afraid we’ll break her?"

Huo Xing’Er couldn’t help gnashing her teeth, looking at Ji Youzhi with a furious expression when she said this.

Ji Youzhi felt a little guilty and quickly stepped back, saying, "No...no! I just think...think she’s still...still young!"

"Yes! She’s still young, but she’s got a lot of guts, even daring to run away from home!

She even managed to sneak out of the Imperial Palace with His Majesty and dared to set sail!"

Zhu Xiuxiu followed Ji Youzhi’s words, rolling her eyes fiercely at him.

For a moment, Ji Youzhi was left speechless and even felt a bit embarrassed.

"Third...Third Sister-in-law, Suisui, she’s...she’s still young, some things we have to take slowly!"

While speaking, Ji Youzhi kept retreating, aiming to move closer to Dugu Xiao, continuously throwing him hints,

Dugu Xiao quickly walked over, casually picked up Xiaosuisui, and hurriedly played the peacemaker.

"You all must be exhausted from your long journey!

Come inside for some tea; I’ll have someone prepare something for you to eat."

As soon as Dugu Xiao spoke, he caught the attention of Huo Xing’Er, Zhu Xiuxiu, and Ji Youyuan.

"Who are you?"

Huo Xing’Er glanced at Dugu Xiao and asked who he was.

Dugu Xiao quickly smiled and said.

"Hello, Big Brother, Second Sister-in-law, Third Sister-in-law, I’m Dugu Xiao, a friend of Old Seven."

As Dugu Xiao introduced himself, he didn’t forget to speak well of Xiaosuisui.

"Big Brother, Sister-in-laws, please don’t be angry. It’s true Suisui was wrong to run away from home,

but along the way, it was indeed thanks to Suisui’s presence that we managed to avoid danger time and again.

Brother, Sister-in-laws, could you perhaps consider Suisui’s merits surpassing her faults, and let this matter rest without further pursuit?"

With every sentence Dugu Xiao spoke, Xiaosuisui would give him a thumbs-up right in front of him!

The little girl’s face was full of a smug expression.

Zhu Xiuxiu and the others looked on, all feeling rather helpless, shaking their heads with a wry smile, and glaring at Dugu Xiao fiercely, allowing the matter to be dropped.

Glaring at Dugu Xiao, he thought, "..." silently enduring it, they couldn’t bring themselves to glare at their little darling.

So they could only glare at the one holding their little darling.

"I’ll deal with you later!"

Huo Xing’Er snatched Xiaosuisui from Dugu Xiao’s arms, squeezing her little cheeks with a deliberately fierce expression.

Xiaosuisui pouted, "Second Aunt, it hurts!"

"Oh dear, you pinched our little darling’s cheeks. Come, Third Aunt will hold you. Second Aunt’s hand was too heavy, just look at our little darling’s cheeks, all red from the pinch."

Zhu Xiuxiu hurriedly reached out to grab the child from Huo Xing’Er, but Huo Xing’Er turned to dodge Zhu Xiuxiu’s hand, carrying Xiaosuisui inside.

Ji Youyuan grabbed Ji Youzhi by the collar, "Tell me every detail of what happened during this time!"

Ji Youzhi quickly led Ji Youyuan to the study at the County Yamen, recounting how he searched for Suisui and His Majesty, how they encountered the Emperor by the banks of Yunhang, and the standoff with Mo’Er’s army, until Mo’Er was struck by lightning and captured alive.

"So you weren’t pulled into the Dream Realm by Suisui to meet him?"

Ji Youyuan listened quietly until Ji Youzhi finished everything before asking the question he was most concerned about.

"Initially, the plan was to meet, but later I was worried that if Suisui and I both entered the Dream Realm, our physical bodies might face danger outside, so I didn’t go in to see him!"
