"Thank you, Miss Bai." Yun Zhan immediately stood up straight.
Bai Qingqing frowned.
He called himself Miss Bai, which was too polite.
That's not good.
It felt too distant, like we were strangers.
"Yun Zhan, can we discuss something?" Bai Qingqing looked up at Yun Zhan, a faint smile curving her brows.
"What is it?" Yun Zhan also looked up at Bai Qingqing.
Bai Qingqing's smiling eyes immediately met his gaze.
It's like a pool of autumn water.
It instantly seeped into his heart.
My left chest began to pound violently and irregularly.
It felt as if it was about to burst out of his chest.
Yun Zhan quickly averted his gaze, pretending to be fiddling with the wishing lantern, but his ears were perked up.
He was afraid of missing Bai Qingqing's words.
He didn't know what was wrong with him.
He had made eye contact with Miss Bai before, but never before had his heart pounded like this.
Perhaps it's because his grandparents have been talking to him way too much lately.
He had always admired Miss Bai.
However, the difference in their social status was too great.
To say that the difference is as vast as clouds and mud is insufficient to express it.
Therefore, he always kept this admiration deep in his heart and never showed it to the public.
I would also remind myself of this from time to time.
But the more he suppressed it, the more surging his admiration became.
Today, I finally couldn't hold back anymore.
That admiration surged forth.
His cheeks were burning hot, his heart was pounding, but his palms were ice cold.
Yun Zhan took a deep breath, then another.
Don't overthink it.
Miss Bai is Miss Bai of the three thousand worlds, Miss Bai of all living beings.
Everyone admires her.
He wasn't the only one.
"From now on, please don't call me Miss Bai anymore," Bai Qingqing said with a smile. "Just call me Qingqing."
Upon hearing this, Yun Zhan abruptly raised his head.
Meeting Bai Qingqing's moist eyes, Yun Zhan felt an intense dryness in his throat.
He was speechless for a long time.
“We’re already so familiar with each other, it’s too formal for you to keep calling me Miss Bai.” Bai Qingqing pressed on, “What do you think?”
To trace back, start with the name.
"Of course, I'll do whatever you say..." Yun Zhan's lips trembled, and finally he said in a very soft voice, "Qingqing."
Bai Qingqing's lips immediately broke into a smile.
The six Bai brothers frowned and stared intently at Yun Zhan.
From the moment they first saw Yun Zhan, the older brothers worried that their sister would be seduced.
They became even more nervous at this moment.
The younger sister seems to treat Yun Zhan quite differently.
Marriage between men and women is a natural and ethical relationship.
If their younger sister gets married in the future, they, as her older brothers, will definitely offer their blessings.
But my younger sister is still too young.
Moreover, they still don't fully understand Yun Zhan.
How can we be at ease?
Most importantly, Yun Zhan was not born and raised in this world.
According to Nan Sheng, those reincarnated individuals will eventually return to the world where their original bodies reside.
What will happen to my sister when he leaves?
The more Bai Hao thought about it, the more inappropriate it seemed.
He wanted to say something to stop her, but he was afraid that if his sister didn't have the same idea, his words would only attract her attention.
Wouldn't that be a losing proposition?
Bai Hao was so conflicted that he almost tore his shoes apart with his toes.
"Then it's settled." Bai Qingqing smiled and pointed to the table next to her: "Go and write down your wish, and then I'll help you release the lantern."
"Okay." Yun Zhan nodded, feeling a little lightheaded as he walked.
When Yun Zhan picked up his pen, he didn't know what to write.
I struggled with this for a long time.
Finally, a line of words was written neatly: May everything go smoothly for Bai Qingqing.
Then, with a devout gaze, they folded it up.
Just as he was about to grab a lucky bag from the side, Bai Qingqing came over, seemingly casually picked one up, and handed it to Yun Zhan.
It's a very simple lucky bag.
Well, how should I put it?
On the simple red bag, there is a slightly crooked golden "福" (fortune) character embroidered.
Apart from that, there were no other embroidery patterns.
Compared to other lucky bags, it is indeed very simple.
This was embroidered by Bai Qingqing herself.
She doesn't know how to embroider.
It was just the simplest interlacing of threads that barely managed to embroider a single character for "good fortune".
Although it didn't take much effort.
But it's also a token of my affection.
Yun Zhan's eyes widened, and his fingers trembled uncontrollably.
This lucky bag is exactly the same as the one that Miss Bai just used.
The other lucky bags are all different.
Was this prepared especially for her and herself by Miss Bai?
"I embroidered it myself, it's not very pretty." Seeing Yun Zhan's stunned expression, Bai Qingqing simply asked directly, "Don't you like it? You can exchange it if you don't like it..."
"I like it." Yun Zhan immediately grabbed the lucky bag tightly and carefully put the wish he had written down into it.
"Did your sister embroider this herself? I want one too." Bai Xu ran over, his eyes scanning the lucky bags, and asked, "Which one is this?"
“That’s all.” Bai Qingqing said frankly, “I only embroidered two, one for myself and one for Yun Zhan.”
Upon hearing this, Yun Zhan trembled.
My heart, which had just managed to calm down, started pounding wildly again.
What did Miss Bai mean by that?
There are only two lucky bags, both hand-embroidered by Miss Bai. She keeps one, and I keep one for myself...
Does this mean...?
Yun Zhan held his breath, not daring to think any further.
He's probably just imagining things.
But what if I'm not just imagining things? What if Miss Bai really meant it that way?
Or, you can ask them yourself after the lanterns are finished being lit.
If it's a misunderstanding, it should be clarified.
If it's not a misunderstanding...
Yun Zhan pursed his lips tightly, his heart pounding even wilder.
If it's not a misunderstanding, he's willing!
only……
What merit or ability does he possess?
He was merely a minor God Emperor, while Miss Bai was someone revered by three thousand celestial gods...
Regardless of his social status or wealth, he is a complete scumbag.
There's no reason why Miss Bai would be interested in him.
He's probably overthinking it.
Yun Zhan's mood suddenly became very low again.
After Bai Qingqing finished speaking, her gaze remained fixed on Yun Zhan.
She felt that her statement was straightforward enough.
I want to see Yun Zhan's reaction.
But Yunzhan's reaction was a bit hard for her to understand.
One moment excited, the next depressed, then euphoric, then sorrowful...
Isn't this a bit too much internal monologue?
So, is it a matter of willingness or unwillingness?
"You only made two?" Bai Xu's gaze fell on Yun Zhan's hands, and he calculated the chances of exchanging them with Yun Zhan.
Noticing Bai Xu's gaze, Yun Zhan immediately hung the lucky bag on his wishing lantern.
"Bai..." Yun Zhan stopped in time, smiling gently like a spring breeze: "Qingqing, I'm ready, we can start releasing the lanterns now."
"Okay." Bai Qingqing walked over quickly and held the other side of the wishing lantern: "I'm ready too, let's light it."
