The scene of countless roses falling shocked everyone. Watching the flowers fall from the sky, Bai Yurou's eyes were filled with surprise and best wishes for her sister. Then, she felt heartbroken about her own romantic journey.
Despite her seemingly carefree exterior, she was deeply hurt inside. Sometimes she even wondered if it was too hasty of her to be disappointed in Yunmo just because he backed down.
Just as she was thinking this, she saw Yunmo watching her from afar.
Bai Yurou quickly regained her composure, as if the dejection she had just felt had not appeared on her face at all.
Yunmo hesitated for a moment, then walked to Bai Yurou's side. "How have you been lately?"
"Not bad, it tastes great." Bai Yurou blurted out An Ge's catchphrase.
"That's good." Yunmo smiled, but the nonchalant attitude he had towards Bai Yurou was gone.
Because of their support for Feng Jinghan, the Yun family is now a veritable imperial merchant family. Lately, he has been dealing with too many family matters, and when he finally saw Bai Yurou, he was speechless.
Clearly, the two of them had so much to talk about before.
"You came here just to ask me these questions?"
"I...I am." Yunmo's courage vanished instantly when he saw Bai Yurou's burning gaze.
Although he was a royal merchant, he was ultimately a businessman, and the person in front of him was someone he dared not even dream of.
Bai Yurou was almost laughing in anger. She thought Yun Mo had finally stopped being a coward? It seems she had overestimated him.
"Now that you've finished asking your questions, can you leave? Or should I leave?"
Yunmo's eyes were filled with pain. He opened his mouth, but swallowed his words. Finally, he cupped his hands in a respectful gesture to Bai Yurou, then turned and left.
Seeing Yunmo's departing figure, Bai Yurou finally let her tears flow.
Yun Xiaohei, this is truly the last chance I'm giving you. I've already taken so many steps, even convincing my family at the beginning, but you cling to that incomprehensible inferiority complex and stubbornness, unwilling to take another step. It seems you're destined not to be my soulmate.
Bai Yurou was heartbroken when she heard rustling sounds behind her. In her anger, she turned around, grabbed the person, and slammed them against the wall, cursing under her breath.
"You dare to eavesdrop on my conversation? You've got a death wish!"
Shen Qingshuang was feeling down because of her sister's wedding, so she took advantage of a lull in her schedule to go to her own garden. Most of the guests were in the front yard today, so there were fewer people in the garden.
As he was taking a walk, he saw Princess Bai and the young master of the Yun family seemingly talking. Without any warning, he overheard their conversation.
He had little contact with the two of them; he only heard his sister mention that they were close, but she never brought it up again.
Hearing their conversation and seeing the atmosphere between the two, he, who was not slow to understand, immediately realized what was going on.
For a moment, he was caught between a rock and a rock, unsure whether to stay or leave. To avoid embarrassment, he could only hide secretly in the nearby artificial hill.
Unexpectedly, Princess Bai caught him red-handed as soon as he made a sound.
"Uh, if I said I really didn't mean it, would you believe me?" Shen Qingshuang was a little embarrassed. Were they sitting too close?
Bai Yurou recognized him as her friend's brother, and still snorted unhappily, "If you weren't doing it on purpose, why are you hiding? Tell me, what did you hear?"
"It was too noisy outside, I didn't hear anything." Shen Qingshuang's eyes were sincere.
Bai Yurou knew the other person was lying, but what could she do? She couldn't very well kill him to cover it up. Luckily, the other person was perceptive and, being her friend's brother, she decided to let him go for the time being.
"I'm in a bad mood today, so you're lucky." With that, Bai Yurou tossed her hair and left with a carefree air.
Before Shen Qingshuang could react to those words, she saw Bai Yurou skipping away.
He touched the spot where Bai Yurou had touched him and smiled helplessly.
My younger sister has such a clumsy personality, and the friend she chose is just as easygoing.
Even he himself didn't realize that the smile on his face at this moment carried a hint of doting.
An Ge declined Emperor Feng Zhao's invitation to attend the ceremony at the palace. After all, she was the bride's representative and had a special status. The protagonist today was Shen Qinghe, and she couldn't keep stealing the spotlight.
The wedding lasted all day, and in the evening, the main streets of the capital were decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, creating a lively atmosphere.
A sudden loud bang startled the people.
They all looked up and saw magnificent fireworks light up the dark sky.
"Fireworks?" someone asked uncertainly. They had heard before that the Fairy Inn had held a fireworks display, but almost everyone in the capital had missed it and only heard snippets of information from locals.
After hearing the description, they were even more disappointed. Unfortunately, the inn has never held such a fireworks display again since then.
I thought we would never meet again in this life, but I never expected that on the day of the Crown Prince's wedding, the Immortals would hold a fireworks display in the capital!
The performance lasted at least half an hour, and the crowd looked up at the brilliant fireworks, their faces filled with anticipation for a bright future.
"Grandpa, it's a flower!" The little ones ran around happily.
"Slow down, don't run too far in this crowd." The elderly couple selling tofu pudding looked at their mischievous grandson with happy smiles on their faces.
"Grandpa, your tofu pudding is really delicious." An Ge and Hu Jiu declined the Shen family's invitation to dinner and instead went to a regular street vendor's stall to eat tofu pudding.
The cooking skills of the Great Ye Kingdom aren't particularly advanced, but that doesn't mean they don't have delicious food. The bowl of tofu pudding in front of An Ge may look ordinary, but it tastes really good.
The elderly man, over sixty years old, smiled with a face full of wrinkles, his tone filled with pride, "I've been making tofu pudding for over forty years, and I've supported my whole family in Beijing with my tofu pudding skills."
"You're really amazing." An Ge gave a thumbs up.
Hu Jiu smiled as he watched An Ge chatting animatedly with the stranger.
Having tasted countless delicacies, he shouldn't have found this tofu pudding unpalatable. But at this moment, he felt that the tofu pudding tasted better than any other dish he had ever eaten before.
Much later, Hu Jiu could still recall the scene of eating tofu pudding and watching fireworks with An Ge at a small table.
After Shen Qinghe's wedding, An Ge did not disturb anyone, nor did she use the teleportation array. Instead, she and Hu Jiu drove a carriage, traveling through mountains and rivers, enjoying the ancient scenery to their hearts' content.
Having been in this world for so long, this is the first time An Ge has had the leisure to travel around and enjoy the scenery, especially with Hu Jiu by herself.
Last time I came to Beijing, I was preoccupied with other things and had no time for this.
The two concealed their true identities and leisurely experienced the local customs and culture, traveling for nearly two months before returning to the inn.
During this time, she naturally received strong complaints from several divine servants. At first, An Ge felt a little guilty, after all, she said she would be back soon after the wedding.
Over time, they developed a thicker skin. Even when faced with Lu Yan's sarcastic remarks, they remained unfazed.
If it weren't for a bad feeling creeping into her heart, An Ge felt that she and Hu Jiu could have continued their carefree life for several more months.
