Chapter 266

“I’m not obligated to tell you anything!”

Hearing this, Qi Ying Ying stuck out her tongue. “Fine! You don’t have to tell me. I’m not interested in knowing anyway!” she fumed.

“Humph! I would hope so.” Then, Dongfang Bai turned around and wouldn’t face Qi Ying Ying any longer. Hence, he had no idea that disappointment flashed through her eyes.

Soon, Le Yao Yao brought Leng Yi Xuan along and joined them again.

It was currently noon. Since there was quite some time before the lantern festival, Dongfang Bai suggested heading down the mountain to walk around first.

Leng Yi Xuan was the most supportive of this idea. After all, Leng Yi Xuan had been raised in the Palace ever since he was born. He rarely had the opportunity to go out.

So, Yi Xuan couldn’t wait to explore! Woo hoo!

It was a two hour ride down the mountain. Along the way, Le Yao Yao and Qi Ying Ying played and teased Leng Yi Xuan on the horse carriage.

Since Yi Xuan was a child, his thoughts and beliefs were very innocent and ridiculous. Whatever that came out of his mouth brought a lot of joy to others.

As for Dongfang Bai, he sat on his personal horse as he followed alongside with the carriage. When he heard the metallic laughter coming from the carriage, he could picture Yao Yao’s brilliant smile in his mind.

Thinking of this, Dongfang Bai was in a great mood.

Two hours later, the group finally arrived on the main street off the mountain.

Since today was a lovely day, there were many common people shopping and strolling on the streets. The streets were filled with countless of stalls and stores. People could find anything their hearts desired. There were stores that sold rice, food ingredients, fruits, silk, clothes, antiques, makeup, and etc.

In addition, there were many performers showing off stunts. Some of them were flipping in mid air, twirling plates, spitting out fire.. there was even a dog that leaped through a fire hoop!

All the performances were very impressive and caused the crowd to shout in awe. The applauses and screams went up and down.

Leng Yi Xuan couldn’t stop chuckling because he was enjoying himself so much.

However, Le Yao Yao wasn’t interested in what was happening around her. All her thoughts were on her son. She kept her eyes on him and bought him treats and figurines.

As for Qi Ying Ying, she was still a child at heart. She was interested in all sorts of items. Along the way, she kept buying nonstop.

After walking around for the entire afternoon, Le Yao Yao and the group were tired. They decided to have a meal at one of the best taverns in town.

Since Leng Yi Xuan loved to eat desserts, Dongfang Bai attentively chose some yummy desserts for him to indulge later.

After ordering almost ten dishes, Dongfang Bai excused the waiter to go prepare the food.

While they were waiting for the food to arrive, Qi Ying Ying kept playing with Leng Yi Xuan. Le Yao Yao had some time to rest so she stared outside the window with one hand supporting her chin.

They were on the second floor and had a panoramic view of everyone that were coming and passing.

Le Yao Yao’s heart couldn’t help but float elsewhere.

If she hadn’t gone mountain climbing with her classmates, she wouldn’t have accidentally transmigrated into this place. She wouldn’t have met her true love.

She wouldn’t have been hurt this bad.

Perhaps, she would already be a university graduate. She would probably be job hunting and trying to fit into society. Eventually, she might have met a man she liked and gotten married..

Life offers many different types of possibilities.

But falling in love with Yu was something she never regretted. It was just so sad how God had decided to separate them.

Thinking of this, Le Yao Yao felt really emotional all of a sudden and her eyes began to turn misty.

historical

Since she didn’t want Dongfang Bai to notice this, Le Yao Yao quickly closed her eyes and tried to suppress the pain within her heart.

She didn’t reopen her eyes until much later.

By now, she had recovered. Everything in front of her was crystal clear again.

At this moment, Le Yao Yao felt a burning gaze on her body.

She quickly looked at the direction where she could sense the gaze. From the crowd, Le Yao Yao instantly detected a man dressed in black.

The moment Le Yao Yao saw him, she felt as if she had been struck by lightning. Her heartbeat became chaotic.

Then, it was as if she had lost her hearing. All the noise that was around her vanished.

In addition, all the people coming and going seemed to disappear as well. The whole world was silent.

In her eyes, she could only see that tall familiar figure!

Although the man was wearing a conical bamboo hat that had a black veil covering his face, Le Yao Yao could recognize him right away.

Because, she had seen that body countless of times. She had already memorized it.

Even if Yu had turned into dust, she would recognize him in a second.

Yu! It was Yu!

Without thinking, Le Yao Yao flew out of the window from the second floor in front of everyone.

All the common people were stunned. Not only that, Dongfang Bai was freaking out. He wanted to stop her but Le Yao Yao had moved too quickly.

So, Dongfang Bai quickly turned to Qi Ying Ying and told her to watch over Leng Yi Xuan. Then, he also flew off the building.

“Yao Yao, what’s wrong!? Yao Yao!” he shouted.

Dongfang Bai didn’t care that all the common people were amazed by their flying abilities. All he cared about was Le Yao Yao’s wellbeing.

Dongfang Bai seized Le Yao Yao’s wrist and wouldn’t let her proceed any further.

Since her wrist was tightly secured by Dongfang Bai, Le Yao Yao frowned and tried to break away.

“Brother! Let go! Let me go now!”

“Yao Yao, you must tell me what happened first!”

“Brother! I saw Yu! I just saw Yu! So, let me go so I can find him!”

“What?”

Hearing this, Dongfang Bai’s brows instantly furrowed. He looked at the direction that Le Yao Yao was pointing and saw people passing and going. But there weren’t any signs of Yu.

Now, Dongfang Bai couldn’t help but look concerned. He wouldn’t loosen his grip at all.

“Yao Yao, you’ve mistaken. Yu isn’t here. Yu is already dead. Please don’t be like this. When I see you acting like this, it pains me.”

“No! Brother! Let me go now! I am not making things up! I really saw him! Although he’s wearing a conical bamboo hat that had a black veil, I could recognize him. He’s not dead! He’s back!!! If you won’t let me go, I’m going to fight you!”

Le Yao Yao was getting anxious. She didn’t want to lose Yu. She felt as if he would disappear from her life if she didn’t catch up to him soon.

So, without thinking, Le Yao Yao bit Dongfang Bai’s hand.

Dongfang Bai gasped and released her.

Le Yao Yao was much too focused on finding Yu to care, and quickly set off in the direction that Yu had disappeared to.

Le Yao Yao restlessly tried to search for Yu amongst the crowd. But, she couldn’t sense him any longer.

Because, he was gone.

“Yu, why did you leave? Why didn’t you wait for me? I really saw you! I saw you..” Le Yao Yao whispered. She looked as if her soul had left her eyes.

Dongfang Bai caught up and sighed. “Yao Yao, why won’t you ever let him go?”

Don’t you know how worried I am about you?

There were endless stream of horse and carriages. But at this very moment, there were two dimmed hearts..
