After separating from Yu Mu, she returned to the small courtyard where all her clothes had been washed clean. Everyone else seemed to be resting; there were only two or three people chatting and eating sunflower seeds in the yard, completely oblivious to her return. Su Feng must not have come back yet, otherwise news of everything that happened today would have spread by now.
She quietly returned to her room where Qiaoer was already asleep on the table. Qi Lin found a blanket and covered Qiaoer with it before sitting alone beside her, reflecting on all that had transpired today.
Sigh, people in ancient times are like this; if they have some money, they become princes among the common folk. Today, Mu Qingfeng made Mudan gain much attention while also praising Qi Lin's aloofness and subtly mocking Bu Yao – quite an impressive person indeed. But even more impressive was that Yu Mu, despite speaking little, always managed to shock with his words. When everyone pointed accusations at him, he remained calm and instead redirected them towards others; then he would sit by drinking tea.
Who knew that Mu Qingfeng could be so petty He made such a point of mocking Bu Yao, from Qi Lin's observations, the woman behind the veil had an extremely strong sense of jealousy and competitiveness. Yet Mudan, who was already the queen of flowers, seemed to fear Bu Yao; she must have used some powerful tactics.
Wait a moment, today when Mudan and Yu Mu were strolling in Maple Grove Garden, Mu Qingfeng arrived just as he did, demanding Bu Yao while praising Mudan coldly. Is there too much coincidence here Qi Lin thought deeply and felt that something was off; it seemed like everything was part of Mudan's own performance.
Just as Qi Lin was deep in thought, Qiaoer stirred, causing the blanket to slip off her body. Qi Lin shook her head helplessly – this girl never slept properly even when awake and would misbehave while lying down too. Qi Lin decided to move Qiaoer onto her lap but inadvertently woke her up.
Qiao'er rubbed her eyes and noticed Qilin's hand hovering in the air. She got up and said, "Snow Sister, you're back"
"Yes, sorry for waking you up. Do you want to take another rest" Qilin affectionately patted Qiao'er's head.
Qiao'er stretched, wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes, and said, "No need. Why are you so late today Today Sister Abi gave me some delicious pastries; I kept a portion for you."
Just as Qilin was about to stop her, Qiao'er had already gone to fetch them. This girl always saved something delicious for her whenever she got it; this made Qilin feel warm inside. Having such a sister would be wonderful.
In no time, Qiao'er came back with an exquisite plate of pastries and placed it in front of Qilin. She picked one up and handed it to Qilin, saying, "Sis Sufeng still hasn't returned. I heard that the first young master of the Phoenix Kingdom arrived today, even looking for Miss Bu Yao; he must be so impressive! If I could meet Young Master Mu, I would die happy."
Qiao'er looked completely immersed in admiration. Qilin seemed to see a red heart floating above Qiao'er’s head. Ashamed, she ate the pastry and then heard Qiao'er scream out loud. Then her hand was pulled by Qiao'er.
"Oh my god, what happened Snow Sister, why are you injured" Qiao'er looked at the injury on Qilin's hand in shock; it seemed to be a foot injury that pained Qiao'er so much she started crying. She held Qilin’s hand carefully and blew softly on it, asking, "Snow Sister, does it hurt"
Ciaoer's tears left Qilin completely stunned. How long has it been When was the last time someone cared for her like this Feeling a tightness in her heart, Qilin held Ciaoer's hand and comforted her, "It doesn't hurt at all, silly girl. Don’t cry anymore. I’m not in pain."
"Of course it hurts! Wait here, I'll go get the wound-plaster for you." Ciaoer hurried to fetch the medicine but was stopped by Qilin.
Qilin held back Ciaoer and made her sit down. She wiped away her tears and said, "No need. I have my own wound-plaster. Look."
As she spoke, Qilin shook the brocade box given to her by Yumu. Unexpectedly, Ciaoer’s expression instantly changed from sorrow to surprise. Her eyes widened as if Qilin was holding a huge diamond rather than a box.
Ciaoer stared at it for a while and then grabbed the box as if it were an extremely precious treasure. She looked at Qilin with extreme astonishment and asked, "Sister Ah Xue, have you seen Prince Yumu"
Qilin nodded. How could she not know
"Heavens! You’ve met Prince Yumu."
Caoer excitedly grabbed Qi Lin's hand but accidentally touched Qi Lin's injury. However, Caoer didn't notice this time and ignored the pain written on Qi Lin’s face as she continued talking: "Ah Xue, I envy you so much! Yu Mu公子 is someone who even Wood公子 can’t compare to. Oh, why wasn't it me that got to see him"
Sweat dripped down from Qi Lin's forehead. Who on earth did Drunken Flower Tower house
Wait a minute! Yu Mu公子 was the first son of Drunken Flower Tower, as Peony had introduced. When Caoer just mentioned that Yu Mu公子 was the first son of Drunken Flower Tower and considering that Drunken Flower Tower was a brothel, Qi Lin couldn't help but ask Caoer: "Caoer, is Yu Mu公子 a regular customer at Drunken Flower Tower"
"Ah Xue Sister, what are you talking about" Caoer looked at Qi Lin with disdain and shook her head helplessly. "It's your ignorance that makes me say this. If Miss Bu Yao is the queen of our Drunken Flower Tower, then Yu Mu公子 is our tower’s top son."
Top son Damn it. Isn’t this like being the school beauty and prince
In other words, he was a legendary cowboy! In this world, do people still want to live
Qi Lin fell to the ground無力地倒在地上, her eyes rolling upwards. so firmly that it didn't let go, and two rows of teeth kept rubbing against each other as if trying to bite off a chunk."Your Majesty" Qin Xiao looked worriedly at Feng Changqing; the joints in his h...
