440 Too Scary

“If you dare to say that, you’ll stay at Huayan Peak!” he warned coldly.

“Mmph!” Gong Cheng immediately covered his mouth.

However, he realized that these two children were the twins back then.

How did An Jiuyue just happen to pick them up? Is An Jiuyue not Lan Zhitong? Did we guess wrong?

Did Second Brother bring An Jiuyue back because she rescued them and not because he likes her? Is that what happened?

However, he looked them up and down, observing how Qian Jiyun carried the child in one arm and wrapped the other around An Jiuyue’s slender waist protectively. There was clearly more to their relationship.

He shook his head and immediately dismissed his thoughts.

Coincidences aside, Second Brother may have fallen for her. This woman is so lucky! Qian Jiyun actually likes her because of two children who have nothing to do with him. Lucky bastard!

“Second Brother, these two little things aren’t— Uh!”

Before he could finish speaking, he realized someone had struck his mute acupoint. His second brother was also glaring at him like he had been fished out of an ice hole.

He shivered in fear and shook his head hurriedly.

I’ll stop talking. I’ll stop talking, okay? He’s too scary.

…

After a while, Yu Yan’er arrived excitedly after buying four lotus lanterns.

“Cousin, this one is for you. It’s in your favorite color. Miss An, this one is for you. I don’t know what color you like, so I bought a pink one.”

She handed two lotus lanterns of different colors to Gong Cheng and An Jiuyue.

An Jiuyue looked at Gong Cheng, who took the lotus lantern without a second thought. She then looked at the two lotus lanterns Yu Yan’er still had and could not help but smile.

They were identical lanterns. She seemed to have prepared them for Qian Jiyun and herself.

“Miss Yu, you’re too kind. Jiyun and I brought our own lotus lanterns, so we don’t need yours. You can release a few more lanterns with Young Master Gong,” she said calmly to Yu Yan’er.

Trying to match lotus lanterns with Qian Jiyun in front of me? Who are you trying to go against?

“Well…” Yu Yan’er’s eyes darkened, and she looked at Qian Jiyun.

“Your Highness, I’ve already bought these lotus lanterns. Do you want to release them with my cousin?”

She pursed her lips and waited for Qian Jiyun’s reply, quietly handing him the lotus lantern.

“There’s no need for Miss Yu’s kindness. Jiuyue and I made lotus lanterns in my residence. We’re going to release them together. You can release yours with Gong Cheng. After all…

“I don’t intend to share lotus lanterns of the same color with strangers. Miss Yu Yan’er, please refrain from thinking about things you shouldn’t. Remember not to overthink things. It’s easy to go astray.”

Qian Jiyun bluntly pointed out Yu Yan’er’s intentions.

“Uh…” Yu Yan’er was extremely embarrassed by his words.

She gritted her teeth and retracted the lotus lantern, feeling aggrieved.

She had harbored such intentions, but it was also true that there were no other lotus lanterns at the stall. They had all been sold, leaving only the four lotus lanterns, which she had purchased all of.
