BXBX NOVEL Chapter 446 - 446 I Really Shouldn’t Have Come
“Alright, I will eat.”
An Jiuyue smiled, took the lotus seed from the child, and placed it in her mouth.
“Alright, I’ve eaten. You can peel and eat them too. We’ll release the lotus lanterns later. By the way, Jiyun, where are our lotus lanterns?”
She had not seen the lotus lanterns they made and also did not know where Qian Jiyun had placed them.
She could have kept them in her space, but she remembered that there would be many people at the Moonlight Lotus Pond. It would be too inconvenient to take them out, so she did not mention it.
“In the bow of the boat.”
Qian Jiyun bent and reached for a basket. There were a few lotus lanterns inside.
There were more lanterns inside at first, but the two children found them more appealing than their own and took out a few. Qian Jiyun instructed the butler to keep the others in the warehouse as mementos.
“Second Brother, your lotus lanterns are so beautiful. Where did you buy them?” Xia Junfeng leaned over and glanced at the lotus lanterns in the basket.
In reality, there was no need to ask. No stall dared to sell black lotus lanterns with golden edges, so these were undoubtedly handmade.
However, he still wanted to ask that aloud because he wanted Yu Yan’er to understand that some people were out of her reach. He also wanted Gong Cheng, that fool, to know what he was doing—he had no idea he was being used for nothing!
“Uncle Qian and Mother made them together. Brother and I also made some. You can’t buy them outside,” Qian Yizheng answered immediately.
“You can buy them next year. I know how to make them,” Qian Yirong added.
An Jiuyue and Qian Jiyun were silent.
This child still remembers wanting to make money by selling lotus lanterns. He has a great memory!
They looked at each other and could not do anything about it. It was good to have personal interests and hobbies. They could not deny him, right?
Gong Cheng and Yu Yan’er sat in the back and watched Qian Jiyun’s family chat happily. Even Chen Youran, who came later, could exchange a few words with An Jiuyue.
She gritted her teeth and regretted it.
If I had known that An Jiuyue would have so much influence over Qian Jiyun, I would have gone for her first. I shouldn’t have shown my liking for Qian Jiyun from the beginning and made her wary of me.
Now, I’m like an outsider who can’t even chime in. It’s far too awkward.
She tilted her head and leaned toward Gong Cheng, whispering, “Cousin, I really shouldn’t have come.”
Of course, she had no choice but to come. However, she had gone about it incorrectly. If she could get into An Jiuyue’s good books now, she would definitely…
Unfortunately, no amount of money could buy prior knowledge. Who would have thought that Qian Jiyun would be so patient with and dote on a woman from the countryside?
What could Gong Cheng say to her?
Even his second brother and fifth brother ostracized him. They did not even want to talk to him.
They might as well not board the boat and go to the bank to release the lotus lanterns. They would not have to feel so aggrieved.
He believed An Jiuyue had ill intentions when she asked them to board the boat. She must have told them to board because she knew that Second Brother and Fifth Brother would ignore him.
