After Qi Qingyao was done using the toilet, she washed her hands and walked back slowly. When she reached her room, she found Erniu had awakened from her sleep. She had even started to dress herself. She smiled with contentment and helped the little girl tie up her hair into two little buns. After bringing Erniu together to the door, she realized that Lu Yan was already waiting outside. As Qi Qingyao was about to lead Erniu toward him, Erniu suddenly requested to play with Dabao and Xiaobao next door. So, Qi Qingyao could only help her open the door to the next room.
She stood at the door talking to Lu Yan.
“I bumped into a lunatic just now.”
“?” Lu Yan frowned. ‘There are a few young talents here from the Eastern Ling Metropolis today. They are from the Xiao family, the Gu family, as well as the Ye family… how could there be a lunatic among them?’
Qi Qingyao puckered her lips and said, “He took my hand by force and kept saying that I looked like another lady.”
Lu Yan, “…”
“He must have been charmed by my beauty and wanted to strike up a conversation!” Qi Qingyao touched her chin narcissistically; she then sighed and said, “Ah, people aren’t coming up with pickup lines properly these days. They’re so terrible, saying something like you look like my crush. I’m so f*cking speechless.”
Lu Yan was not sure whether to laugh or cry. It seemed that someone was interested in her. After thinking about it, he asked oddly, “Then, what kind of pickup line will you accept?”
“Let’s go out to dinner, it’s on me!” said Qi Qingyao seriously.
Lu Yan, “…” ‘How much of a miser are you?!’
‘You’ll accept as long as the other party pays for the expenses? That’s… very easy!’
After a while, Si Jin walked out of the house with the three little ones. Looking at the neatly dressed little boys who also had their hair done, Qi Qingyao patted Dabao’s and Xiaobao’s heads. “Have you guys washed up too?”
Both Dabao and Xiaobao blinked their crystal clear eyes, showing a lovely smile on their faces.
Qi Qingyao said, “Let’s go and have our meals!”
The group walked toward the Furong Waterside Pavilion. The three little children had not seen the courtyard scenery, so they walked around together with Si Jin. Knowing that Si Jin could protect the three little ones, Qi Qingyao just let them be. She only reminded them not to go too far away and to not be too rowdy! The three little fellows nodded obediently. Then, they ran away with the slightly rowdy Si Jin.
Qi Qingyao and Lu Yan walked into the Furong Waterside Pavilion together.
Furong Waterside Pavilion was a small building in the middle of the lake. After entering through the door after walking along the long wooden bridge, there was a very spacious hall with braziers everywhere, warming the air.
There were also numerous pots of gorgeous flowers and the floor was covered with luxurious carpets. A dozen low tables with gold painted designs had been placed neatly on the carpet and behind the tables were zafu cushions! Everyone was sitting on the floor, creating a unique ambiance.
Qi Qingyao glanced at the seating arrangement.
She did not know where to sit.
Lu Yan took her by hand and sat down on the sides of the two Chabudai tables which were situated a little further behind. There was a brazier beside it, so it was not cold at all.
Qi Qingyao was very satisfied with her seat as she was able to scan half of the hall at a glance.
After sitting down, plenty of people came in one after another.
There were handsome men and gorgeous ladies.
Qi Qingyao was dazzled by all of their appearances.
The maids had already begun to serve confectioneries, fruit refreshments, and drinks.
Unable to resist the urge to ask, she questioned Lu Yan, “By the way, what is the banquet today for? Why are there so many handsome guys here? There are even those from the Eastern Ling Metropolis.”
Lu Yan was dazed for a moment. He asked her, “Was it someone from Eastern Ling Metropolis who said that you look like someone else?”
Qi Qingyao nodded. “Yes.”
Lu Yan said, “He’s just trying to flirt, don’t take it seriously..”
