Chapter 406: Chapter 382, Petty_1

Defu and Wang Manman returned with lotus flowers in hand, only to find Daohua and Xiao Yeyang still the only two in the pavilion.

Daohua took the lotus flowers from Wang Manman and played with them while looking out, “Why haven’t they come back yet?”

Xiao Yeyang smiled and said, “Everyone is out to enjoy themselves, naturally they want to have fun to their heart’s content.” As he spoke, his gaze lingered on the lotus flowers in Daohua’s hand for a moment before he quickly stood up, grabbed Daohua’s hand, and walked out.

“Xiao Yeyang, what craziness are you up to now?” Daohua struggled to pull her hand away, but Xiao Yeyang held her fast, leaving her no choice but to follow him out of the pavilion.

As Xiao Yeyang walked her out, he said, “You must be bored sitting in the pavilion, right? Your lotus flowers were picked in the morning and have started to wither. Let me take you to pick some fresh ones.”

After he spoke, he turned, took the lotus from Daohua’s hands, handed it to Defu, and then pulled Daohua towards the wooden boat at the shore.

Soon, the two of them arrived at the wooden boat.

Gazing at the boat, Daohua remembered what had happened with Xiao Yeyang on the boat previously and felt reluctant to get on, “I don’t want to ride the boat anymore.”

Xiao Yeyang looked at Daohua and, seeing her reluctance, thought for a moment, “Then I’ll go pick some for you, and you can watch from the shore.”

Daohua nodded.

Xiao Yeyang let go of Daohua’s hand, taking Defu with him onto the wooden boat.

“Do you want the ones in full bloom or the ones still in buds?”

“Either is fine.”

“How about this one?”

“That one’s too big. I want a smaller one.”

“Didn’t you say either was fine?”

“Since you’re asking me to choose, I definitely have to pick one.”

“How about this one? The bud hasn’t opened at all. If you put it in a vase, it will surely last for several days.”

“That’s fine.”

When Yan Wenkai returned with Su Shiyu, they saw Daohua standing alone on the shore, craning her neck to look at the lotus pond, occasionally pointing.

Upon hearing the rippling of water, Daohua quickly turned her head and saw a flat boat slowly emerge from the lotus leaves, with her fourth elder brother standing and rowing, while Su Shiyu sat quietly facing him. Both looked towards her.

One with a beaming grin, the other with a gently pursed smile. Even though there was no interaction between the two, Daohua felt the scene was as beautiful as an ink wash painting.

“You’ve finally decided to come back!”

Seeing Daohua’s bright smile, Su Shiyu felt somewhat shy and dared not look directly into her eyes.

Yan Wenkai, as if nothing was amiss, jovially asked out loud, “Why are you alone? Where are the others?”

Daohua glanced back and forth between the two, then pointed towards the lotus leaves, “One is in there.”

Yan Wenkai secured the wooden boat and then carefully helped Su Shiyu onto the shore before walking with a handful of lotus seeds towards Daohua, “Big sister, look! Shiyu and I picked so many lotus seeds.”

Daohua chuckled as she glanced at Su Shiyu and then at the lotus seeds wrapped in lotus leaves, teasing, “How could you not? Didn’t you see how long you two were out?”

At that, Su Shiyu’s cheeks reddened slightly, and she quickly ran to Daohua’s side, tugging at her arm and swiftly changing the subject, “Where’s Yuanyao?”

Daohua replied, “She went horse racing with Elder Brother Su.” Then she pouted, “Both of you, you clearly said you’d come back soon to find me, but when I woke up from my nap, every one of you was gone.”

Shiyu shook Daohua’s arm, “Dear sister, it’s my fault. I was so engrossed in picking lotus seeds and admiring the lotus scenery that I forgot the time.”
