Although it was nap time, there was still someone watching the main gate, so it wasn't easy to leave through it.
But the kitchen was unguarded; it had a back door which was convenient for the servants and cooks to unload ingredients. The kitchen was silent, everyone resting in their rooms, except for an elderly errand servant who sat on a chair, slowly nodding off.
The two of them passed by her, and she didn't notice.
Pushing open the back door, a wave of heat hit them, and Sheng Hanyu frowned.
It was the hottest moment of the day. What was so fun about going outside? What if they got heat stroke?
Adults thought this way, but children didn't understand.
Shi Ran was excited, pulling his hand and running outside.
He followed Shi Ran to a fruit tree, where Shi Ran said, "Elisa, lift me up."
Up?
Sheng Hanyu shook his head, indicating his disapproval.
He gestured with his hands, signaling that it was too high and too dangerous up there.
