Chapter 128 Happiness Grass
When Yan Buyu chased after Qin Yue, he tripped over a tree branch and fell face-first to the ground.
"Oh dear!" Qin Yue rushed over to help her up. "I'm so sorry, are you alright? Get up quickly."
Yan Buyu stared straight ahead at a certain spot, then waved his hand and said, "Yueyue, look, isn't that the happiness grass?"
Just a dozen centimeters from her face, beneath a stone about thirty centimeters in diameter, was a gap about the height of a hand.
In the gap, a plant swayed gently in the breeze.
The flowers are light purple with petals arranged in a spiral layer, the branches are dark black, and the leaves are deep purple.
Qin Yue also lay down on the ground. The moment she saw the flower, her eyes widened suddenly. "Thank the Great Ancestor! I'm one of those people who have seen the happiness grass! Silent, quick, make a wish, pick it, and I'll keep it safe for you."
Qin Yue knelt on the ground, took the basket off her back, and rummaged through it to find a small glass bottle.
Yan Buyu did not refuse; she truly had a wish.
Clasp your hands together, close your eyes, silently repeat your wish three times, reach out, and carefully pluck the happiness grass.
Ignoring the mud and grass covering her body, she put the lucky grass into a glass bottle.
"Did you hurt yourself?" Si Jingxu ran over and asked anxiously.
Qin Yue gave Yan Buyu a "see for yourself" look, then got up to go find his brother.
Yan Buyu got up from the ground with a smile on his face, holding up the glass bottle, "Brother Jingxu, I found the happiness grass!"
Si Jingxu glanced at it and wondered if it was really worth being so happy over such a small purple flower.
"Wow, I'm so envious," Si Jingxu said, bending down to brush the dirt off her trousers. "What did you wish for?"
“I can’t say that,” Yan Buyu said, her eyes shining as she held the glass bottle in both hands. “If I say it, it won’t work.”
"Alright," Si Jingxu said helplessly, brushing the last bit of dirt off her shoulder, "Then let's wish our little princess's wish comes true."
He stared silently at the purple flower in his hand, his devotion unwavering. He was certain it would work.
must.
Qin Yue was pulled aside by her brother. Before she could even complain, she turned around and quickly took out her phone to take a picture.
"What are you doing?" Qin Xing was furious. "Can't you have any manners? If you offend them, our town will never have another chance."
"You don't know anything." Qin Yue was not polite to her brother at all. "Look at them, how beautiful they are. I must give this photo to Buyu, and to my friends."
In the distance, there was a man and a woman; the man was tall and handsome, and the woman was charming and lovely.
The girl was tilting her head back, smiling as she spoke to the man.
The man lowered his head with a smile on his lips; even his profile revealed his gentleness.
It's like taking wedding photos.
The moment she pressed the shutter, the weather suddenly changed.
The sky, which had been clear and bright, suddenly became frighteningly dark, as if the brightness had been adjusted.
The breeze vanished, replaced by a fierce gale that roared in like a hungry tiger breaking free from its cage.
It was so bright that it made it hard to open one's eyes.
Without saying a word, she instinctively held the glass bottle in her arms.
Si Jingxu reacted just as quickly.
He pulled her into his arms with one hand and shielded her face with the other, protecting her from the dust and sand carried by the wind.
He practically wrapped his entire body around her, protecting her.
Qin Xing looked up at the sky and realized, "Oh no, it's a thunderstorm."
If I try to go home now, I'll definitely be too late and will probably get soaked halfway there.
“Mr. Si, there’s a thunderstorm, and it will be very intense at first. It’s not safe to go back now. There are two caves nearby where you can take shelter. I’ll take Yueyue to one, and you can take Miss Yan to the other.”
Si Jingxu knew this too, and he nodded, signaling Qin Xing to lead the way.
The large raindrops stung his skin, but he remained silent and didn't utter a sound.
Completely guided by Si Jingxu, she did her best to protect the small glass bottle.
Fortunately, Si Jingxu shielded her from most of the rain.
Qin Xing gave them the slightly larger cave, and then quickly pulled his sister to a smaller one further away.
The cave is small, only big enough to accommodate two people.
Si Jingxu let Yan Buyu stand inside, while he stood in front of the cave entrance, his hands bracing on either side of her body, like a wall, shielding her from the raging storm outside.
At least he had a chance to catch his breath after remaining silent.
She took out the glass bottle to check again; the bottle wasn't broken, and the lucky grass was in good condition.
I carefully wiped the dirt off the outside of the bottle and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Who are you planning to give this to?"
He saw her meticulous care throughout the journey.
I originally thought it was just a girl making a wish on a whim, hoping for good luck.
Looking at it now, it seems not.
It doesn't seem like she asked for it herself.
Si Jingxu looked up without saying a word; his black hair was already soaked by the rain.
The young master, who was always so refined and elegant, now had his hair plastered to his face, with rain streaming down his face.
His clothes were soaked through, but he had only gotten a little wet on his shoulders.
Not wanting to hide it from him, Yan Buyu softly said, "Give it to my mother."
Si Jingxu was surprised.
He thought it was either Shen Yanzhou or Shen Yunqi, "Aunt Lan?"
He nodded without saying a word, and didn't say anything more.
Last night's dream was too real; it was all her past life experiences.
So, what will happen when her mother appears before Yan Qihang after her death?
She dared not think too deeply about it, but it wasn't hard to guess.
She brought all of this upon herself; if something happened to her mother in her past life, she was the one who caused it.
She hoped to obtain the herb of happiness to bless her mother with a lifetime of health and peace.
After all, she had already changed her brother's fate, hadn't she?
What a good child.
Si Jingxu, who was a little jealous just now, just wanted to talk to her properly.
"Silence."
"Um?"
Are you cold?
He shook his head without saying a word.
A fierce wind was blowing outside. It was only noon, but the sky looked like evening.
The roar of the wind and rain was like that of wild beasts.
"Brother Jingxu, are you cold?" His clothes were completely soaked and clung tightly to his body.
He's such a delicate person.
"It's not cold, your brother Jingxu is in good health." Si Jingxu raised an eyebrow, his tone casual and smiling. "Protecting you is more than enough for me."
"Then I'll go back and make you some ginger soup." Yan Buyu raised her hand and wiped the water off his cheeks.
Si Jingxu's eyes darkened; this was the first time she had taken the initiative to get close to him.
“There are some here too.” He tilted his head slightly.
Yan Buyu obediently raised his hand again and wiped it.
It's useless.
The rain outside was much faster than she was moving.
Si Jingxu's lips curved into a beautiful smile as he looked down at her, his voice soft and gentle, "How do you want to spend your birthday this year?"
"At home with my family." After she finished speaking, fearing that the other person might think she didn't want to invite him, she added, "It's like this every year."
Si Jingxu raised an eyebrow. "There are still two months left, it can be changed."
"Two whole months?" Yan Buyu's eyes widened suddenly, his voice trembling. "What's the date today?"
"Number seventeen."
Yan Buyu was completely stunned, as if struck by lightning.
Number 17.
July 17th.
In her past life, she was slit in the throat by Yan Qihang on the 17th.
The fear from last night's dream returned.
