Xiang Xinian listened with some confusion, "Sisters, aren't you from the island?"
“No, we’re from the capital. To be precise, we’re from Songcheng, we live in the capital, and we’re studying here now.” Even as a child, Wu Yue didn’t try to be perfunctory; she spoke each word earnestly.
"In that case—"
Xiang Xinian looked up and smiled, obediently replying, "Then I'll keep it safe for you, sister. You should come to Guizhou Island often, okay? The car is parked in my garage, and I'll take it for maintenance regularly."
"Angel! Little cutie!"
Wu Yue pinched his little face gently, her palm soft and tender. "Thank you so much, sister. You should come to the capital sometime! I'll definitely show you around and let you eat your way through the city. I'll also introduce you to other kids your age, okay?"
"Okay. Thank you, sister." Xiang Xinian let Wu Yue 'rub' his face, his eyes filled with a faint smile, not resisting her touch.
Xiang Dongshu stared at the two of them, feeling the deep malice emanating from this world!
Why are Xiang Xinian and Wu Yue so close? Hey! They've only just met!
And those two are so hypocritical, talking back and forth like that! [Jealousy has distorted my appearance.gif]
Xiang Xinian is on the slender side, a beauty that seems to come from within. His eyebrows and eyes are delicate, his eyes as black as ink yet clear and bright, like two fine silver rivers inlaid within them. His lips are as if drawn by a painter's brush, every inch of them embodying beauty.
Looking at Xiang Xinian's handsome face, Wu Yue couldn't help but sigh: With such a well-behaved personality, she really wanted to marry him off to Wu Nian as her childhood sweetheart fiancé, but unfortunately Wu Nian already had Song Suian.
Yan Chiyu saw a certain cowardly person sigh regretfully in the rearview mirror—
So, what strange things is she thinking about again?
...
As Xiang Dongshu entered the gate of the Xiang family's old mansion, he subconsciously lowered the hat he had specially worn, the brim obscuring his eyes, which held complex emotions. Whether the others genuinely didn't recognize him or were feigning blindness, they simply didn't recognize him and allowed him to follow Yan Chiyu and his entourage, who were guests.
Of all the quaint and charming houses on Guizhou Island, the Xiang family's house is the best preserved. Although it has been renovated several times, there have been no major alterations. Its ancient elegance is truly captivating.
Madam Xiang lived in the quietest courtyard of the old house. The courtyard was next to a lake and was filled with all kinds of flowers and plants, including rare varieties that were airlifted from all over the country, as well as ordinary plants that were picked by the roadside and bravely basking in the wind and sun.
There is order within chaos, and simplicity within complexity.
Upon seeing the old man waiting for him at the gate, Xiang Xinian immediately let go of Wu Yue's hand and ran towards the old man.
"grandmother!"
With a smile, Kurikawa put his arm around his grandson. His wrinkled face had cloudy but bright and spirited eyes. "Kizuki, bring the guests in."
Thinking he had disguised himself well, Xiang Dongshu silently stepped out from behind Yan Chiyu and chuckled, "No problem, Aunt!"
As soon as the words were spoken, she obediently carried the ice cream from Yu Shang Fang and followed them into the courtyard.
Mu Liuguang's breathing was somewhat disordered. She had been silent the whole way, probably feeling nervous and uneasy.
If Que Guanghuai were here, he could share some of her emotions, but Wu Yue and Yan Chiyu are unimportant, not particularly close friends, so she would inevitably worry and be afraid. This is understandable.
Wu Yue noticed this and gently patted Mu Liuguang's shoulder, her voice softening: "You should always believe in Ye Yue's celestial predictions. If she says you can live, then you can live."
Mu Liuguang took a deep breath and smiled bitterly: "Even when I committed suicide on the palace wall back then, I was never this terrified."
The girl looked at her and smiled softly: "Princess, times have changed."
