Chapter 579 -530, Tongxin Knot_1
Daohua took the lantern, looking very pleased, “Sun Changze, you are quite attentive; now I believe what you said before.”
Sun Changze was startled, “What did I say?”
With a smile, Daohua said, “You said you know how to make girls like you. Look, I only glanced at this pair of fish lanterns a few times, and you noticed and even bought them. Tell me, do you often give gifts like this to girls?”
Sun Changze shook his head repeatedly, his hands flailing anxiously, “No, no, I’ve never given gifts to other girls, I’m not attentive, no, I mean, I am not unattentive, what I am is…”
Dong Yuanyao cast a glance at the flustered Sun Changze and continued walking ahead.
Seeing the anxious expression on Sun Changze’s face, Daohua comforted him with a laugh, “Don’t rush, this is a good thing about you, there’s nothing to deny.” Holding up the pair of fish lanterns, she added, “Thank you, I really like them.”
After saying that, she ran off to catch up with Dong Yuanyao.
Xiao Yeyang was somewhat puzzled by Daohua’s behavior. He glanced at Sun Changze, not very pleased with his eager attentiveness, “Don’t misuse your tricks to win a girl’s favor, and don’t use them on the wrong person either.”
Sun Changze’s head drooped like a deflated balloon.
Up ahead, Daohua glanced at Dong Yuanyao and noticed that her mood wasn’t as high as before, feeling somewhat guilty as she looked at the lantern in her hands.
Be it the lantern or the monkey mask, she knew they were all given by Sun Changze for Yuanyao. Yet, after hesitating for a moment, she still intercepted them.
Last time, Sun Changze had blocked a knife for Yuanyao, and ever since then, he had been constantly concerned about her. Women are emotional creatures; with Sun Changze’s attentive gestures, there was a chance he might touch her heart, and she could fall for him.
The gap in their social status was too vast. In this ancient era that valued family lineage, it was impossible for Yuanyao from the Marquis Residence to have any possibility with Sun Changze from the grain transport guild.
The matriarch of the Dong Family was so particular about social status, and even if Lord Dong and Madam Dong loved Yuanyao dearly, they would not allow such a thing to happen.
Once a woman falls into unrequited love, she is prone to get hurt, especially someone like Yuanyao, a teenager whose feelings were just beginning to bloom. While Yuanyao’s feelings for Sun Changze were just starting to differ, Daohua had to nip this bud of thought in the bud.
Looking at Dong Yuanyao, Daohua couldn’t help but think of herself. She glanced at Xiao Yeyang beside her and felt her mood sink as well.
After a while, seeing a ring toss stall on the street, Daohua perked up and pulled Yuanyao along, “Yuanyao, there’s a ring toss over there. Let’s play and see if we can win something nice.”
Seeing that Daohua really wanted to play, Dong Yuanyao, not wanting to dampen her spirits, nodded and followed her.
Each with ten rings in hand, they began tossing with enthusiasm.
Daohua usually had good aim, but this time she couldn’t hook anything. On the other hand, Dong Yuanyao landed every toss perfectly, lifting her spirits that had been down.
“Let’s do it again, Yiyi, I want to compete with you.”
Looking at the pile of prizes Dong Yuanyao had won, Daohua complained, “Aren’t you just bullying me now?”
Dong Yuanyao lifted her chin proudly, “What’s wrong? Are you scared to compete with me?”
Without hesitation, Daohua replied, “Who said I’m scared? I’m just not that familiar with ring tossing yet. Just give me a moment to get the hang of it, and then I’ll compete with you.”
Dong Yuanyao said with a laugh, “Then I’ll wait.” As she spoke, she moved aside to play with the prizes she had won.
Sun Changze noticed the crowd growing and quickly moved over to create a barrier to prevent people from bumping into her.
Dong Yuanyao looked up at Sun Changze, scoffed, and turned her gaze away, talking to her maid Hong Yu about giving these prizes to Madam Dong and the others when they returned home.
At the stall, Daohua picked up another ten rings, but unfortunately, she still couldn’t hook anything this time.
“Your force is off. Haven’t you noticed how the rings keep bouncing back?” Xiao Yeyang came over.
Daohua, “I know, ever since I returned from Sishan Village, I have been practicing to make my whip strikes more powerful. I deliberately strengthened my arm training, and now out of habit, I subconsciously use too much force.”
Xiao Yeyang stood beside Daohua, holding her hand gently and cast the ring forward, creating an arc in the air before precisely landing on a porcelain doll.
