Chapter 390: Let’s Play All Night Tonight



Maybe she smelled the scent of the soul? Otherwise she wouldn't be the only one who could smell it.

"Then tell me, Nian Nian, do we have any smell?"

Shen Yizhi just asked casually, but she didn't expect Nian Nian to actually nod: "Aunt Shen, you are fragrant and warm, Qingbao tastes like cream ice cream, and Yuanbao is as clear and clean as water."

“Ice cream flavor”? Hahaha, this description is absolutely perfect.

Shen Yizi couldn't stop laughing.

Cui Yue asked excitedly: "What about me?"

"Well, Yue'er tastes like... orange." Nian Nian thought for a while and found an accurate adjective.

Cui Yue chuckled. Orange flavor? "What about my brother?"

"...It tastes like cabbage." Nian Nian said uncertainly.

Cui Xi: Why did the situation suddenly change when it came to him? The group walked out chatting and laughing, while Sima Kuang received bad news.

"What? You lost two thousand spirit stones and tens of thousands of taels of silver in a gambling fight? What do you do for a living?"

As a bastard's son, Sima Kuang had no qualifications to inherit the City Lord's Mansion, so he was sent by the family to manage the shops. Tianyi Building was under his charge. Douyu Hall, as a derivative industry of Tianyi Building, could bring in huge profits every month. Sima Kuang made a lot of money from it into his own piggy bank.

This time, he thought that what was waiting for him was another "filial tribute" from Manager Xu, but Manager Xu actually handed him an account book! He flipped through it with shaking hands, his face becoming increasingly pale.

He slammed the account book on Manager Xu's forehead and asked, "What the hell is going on?!"

After hearing the whole story, Sima Kuang gritted his teeth and said, "It's Xia Yan again!"

How much trouble is this stupid woman going to get him into!

If it weren't for her, Shen Yizhi wouldn't have agreed to the bet, let alone bet 200 spirit stones on himself to win! They Douyu Hall wouldn't have to pay such a large sum of money!

That’s two thousand spirit stones!

He had only accumulated this much wealth after taking over Tianyilou for several years, but now he was going to lose it all!

Of course, he no longer had the vague affection for Shen Yizhizi, who was the direct cause of his impending bankruptcy, but only resentment.

He suddenly thought: "This money hasn't been paid out yet, right?"

Manager Xu: "Not yet. I told Miss Shen that I couldn't raise that many spirit stones for the time being, and asked her to give me two days. Miss Shen agreed."

Sima Kuang rubbed the gold and jade ring on his thumb and said, "Okay, I'll figure out a way to deal with this."

When he returned to the box, he had almost completely controlled the expression on his face, and he thought that others wouldn't be able to notice anything.

However, as soon as he entered, Zhao Fulan asked, "Did something happen? I saw that the Third Young Master didn't look well."

Sima Kuang almost couldn't help but touch his face. Is it really that obvious?

He forced a smile and said, "It's not a big deal, Miss Zhao, don't worry."

Seeing that he was unwilling to say more, Zhao Fulan did not ask any more questions. She was just showing concern for him and did not really care about him.

After coming out of the underground market, Shen Yizi looked at the time. It was past five o'clock and it was almost time for dinner.

There are still ten days or so until the Lantern Festival, but the streets have already started to heat up.

The lantern shop hangs up lanterns of various shapes and colors, and the Yuanxiao shop shouts "Sweet Yuanxiao, salty Yuanxiao, and meat Yuanxiao are all delicious."

Some wealthy shops would even put up lanterns in front of their doors, shining brightly with golden light and colorful decorations. The lanterns were painted with various fairy tales, which shows that the pursuit of immortals and the way of the Tao were very popular here.

Others held up poles dozens of meters long with colorful curtains hung on them. On the curtains, colorful paper-made acrobatic characters fluttered in the wind like flying fairies.

As night falls, night market stalls are set up, selling all kinds of snacks and performing acrobatics, making the scene very lively.

Shen Yizhi took Qingbao and the others on a stroll, eating, shopping, playing and looking around, and they didn't return until after nine o'clock in the evening.

When she was ready to go to bed, she suddenly remembered, oh no, she forgot to tell her father.

Sure enough, when I opened the photo stone, I saw several messages from my father, like a series of life-threatening calls.

"Yibao, when will you be back? Xiao Che caught a big octopus. Let's have octopus balls tonight? Or grilled octopus is also fine."

"Yibao, why don't you reply to me? Did something happen?"

"Yibao, don't scare Daddy. My little heart can't stand being scared."

Shen Yizi below didn't have the courage to look. It was all her fault that she and Qingbao had had too much fun at the night market and made her father so worried.

I quickly replied: "Dad, I'm sorry. We were walking around the night market earlier. It was too noisy around us and we didn't notice the movement of the photo stone, so I didn't reply you in time. Don't worry, we are all fine. I will take Qingbao and the others to rest here tonight. I will probably take them around the island tomorrow. I won't go back for the time being. Octopus is waiting for me to come back and cook it for you! Muah~"

After acting cute again, Shen Yizi sent this message.

After waiting for a while, Shen Jianghan replied: Well, have fun, no need to rush back.

Shen Yizi let out a long sigh and finally felt relieved.

On Kunling Island.

The lights in the stone pavilion are bright.

Shen Jianghan put down the photo stone and said, "Come on, Yibao won't be back tonight, let's play all night!"

Zhang Lingche and Qiu Chongya became excited when they heard this.

Soon, the joyful sound of mahjong tiles colliding with each other could be heard on the table.

The next morning, Shen Yizhi dug Qing Bao and the others out of their beds early.

The three little guys were still sleeping soundly and couldn't open their eyes.

Shen Yizi pinched their chubby faces and their little hands and feet, then put clothes on them.

"Go brush your teeth and wash your face. Whoever finishes the fastest will be rewarded with a big snack bag!"

The snacks had a great motivating effect. The three people who were just confused immediately woke up and rushed to wash up.

Without even having breakfast, Shen Yizi took everyone out.

Cui Yue yawned loudly: "Sister Zhizhi, where are you taking us?"

"Let's go eat something delicious! And enjoy the scenery."

When they heard that it was delicious, everyone became excited, their eyes full of anticipation.

As for the second sentence "see the scenery", they automatically ignored it.

There are eight scenic spots on Sanzhu Island: the morning bell of White Crane, the bright moon on Xiaotai, the flying springs of Twin Waterfalls, the clouds and mist on East Peak, the pine snow on West Peak, the sunset glow of Purple Ganoderma, the blessed land of Yunmen, and the heavenly cave of Purple Bamboo.

What Shen Yizi wanted to take them to see was the "White Crane Morning Bell", which was located in Lingyin Temple, thirty miles outside Yufu City.

There is a small crane peak in the temple, on which stands an old pine tree that is who knows how many years old. Many white cranes like to live here. The big bell in the temple is hung under the pine tree.
