Chapter 185: Lotus Flower Festival

Without the money, Le Yao Yao felt her heart sinking . It was as if the world was collapsing in front of her .

Oh God! Does this mean she’ll have to be a servant in Prince Rui’s residence for life? Her life was a true tragedy!

“Although the money is gone, in the future, if you need anything, count it towards the residence’s expense . You can eat or buy anything you want . ” Leng Jun Yu calmly stated .

“What? Really?!”

Le Yao Yao was so astonished that her eyes were bulging . She realized that Leng Jun Yu had a tough mouth but soft heart .

“Prince Rui, servant has never told you that you are a super duper good good good good man!”

Leng Jun Yu smiled cunningly in response .

But the corner of Xing’s mouth twitched again .

Good person? Prince Rui?!

Uh… .

Although Le Yao Yao was depressed about losing all of her money, she felt much better after Dongfang Bai and Leng Jun Yu’s statements . Perhaps she may have lost something, but she gained something else .

As the saying goes, “If you win in one aspect, you’ll lose in the other . ” Thinking of this, she felt better .

After all, Le Yao Yao had always been very good at nursing her mental health .

Due to her injuries, the King of Hell purposely gave her a few days to rest . Le Yao Yao did not reject his kind offer since her body was green and purple . She didn’t realized how bad her injuries were until she inspected herself afterwards .

When Le Yao Yao realized she was beaten up so badly, she was furious . Luckily, Xing told her Prince Rui had taught those local gangsters a lesson .

Initially, she thought Prince Rui would’ve killed them .

“Kill?” Xing snickered, “That would be treating them too kindly . Now, they’re begging on the streets of the Capital . Prince Rui torn apart all their limbs . If they cannot beg enough money for food, someone will feed them to ensure they won’t starve to death . If they’re ill, they will be taken to the physician . Prince Rui wants them to live for a long, long time!”

Le Yao Yao was stunned .  Wow, the King of Hell’s method was brilliant!

Since Dongfang Bai’s medical skills were godly, Le Yao Yao was almost back to 100% in just three days .

She was already able to get up and jump around . By lucky coincidence, today happened to be the Heaven Yuan dynasty’s yearly Lotus Flower Festival .

The Lotus Flower Festival was very exciting . Each year at this time, the West Lake would be filled with lotus flowers . They would cover the majority of the lake .

Many couples in love would come from near and far just to experience this lovely sight .

In addition, at night, everyone would light up lotus flower lanterns . The point was to write down your wish on the lanterns; then after lighting them up, allow the lanterns to drift on the water .

*insert pic*

Sources say the further the lantern goes, the more higher the chances of the wish coming true . Although it was only a folklore, many people still followed it . It was regarded as a refined activity of intellectuals .

When Le Yao Yao heard of this event, she decided to head to West Lake that night to participate as well . But before she could find Xiao Mu Zi to go with her, she encountered Leng Jun Yu . He had just returned from the Palace .

“Do you feel much better?” Leng Jun Yu paused his steps as he asked .

“Thank you for your care, Prince Rui . Servant feels much better now . ”

The corners of Leng Jun Yu’s mouth curved upwards, “Then, come release the lotus lanterns with this Prince tonight . ”

Then, Leng Jun Yu headed for his Study and left the stunned Le Yao Yao standing where she was .

“What?! Release lotus lanterns?”

The King of Hell enjoys this type of elegant and sappy activity?

When evening struck, Le Yao Yao deliberately changed into a regular male outfit to go to the festival with Leng Jun Yu . Originally, she thought it was only her and Prince Rui . But this year, the Emperor and the Dowager Empress decided to wear plain clothes to go about incognito . They wanted to stroll along the West Lake and experience the pleasure of the Lotus Flower Festival as locals .

Sources say that this was suggested by Nian Sulan . The Emperor and the Dowager Empress were both delighted .

However, since they were going incognito, they couldn’t bring too many people or it would arouse suspicion . So the Emperor only bought a few highly skilled Imperial guards and the King of Hell with him for safety concerns .

Nangong Jun Xi goes wherever there was excitement, so naturally, he was included . Since Nangong Jun Xi invited Dongfang Bai, Bai was also part of the group .

So now, on this eventful night, a group of powerful individuals headed towards the West Lake .

Both the Emperor and the Dowager Empress were dressed very casually . However, their noble aura could not be hidden . Anyone could tell that they weren’t regular citizens with one look .

The Dowager Empress was old, but her heart wasn’t . Nian Sulan was by her side holding onto her arm .

Along the way, Nian Sulan made many interesting and quirky comments to amuse the Dowager Empress . Behind them were four men with swords by their waists . It was obvious that they were highly trained .

Le Yao Yao was walking behind Leng Jun Yu . She was also dressed very plainly, but her face was definitely extraordinary and lovable .

In front of her, Leng Jun Yu was dressed somewhat casually but his handsome looks stood out amongst everyone else . Along the way, many young ladies were peeking or blatantly staring at him . Countless of flirtatious glances were thrown towards his direction . However, Leng Jun Yu remained unfazed . His face was frozen like always .

As for Nangong Jun Xi and Dongfang Bai, they were walking freely next to her . They were about to get their own lanterns before heading to the lake .

Since it was the festival, there were much more people than usual . In addition, everyone was holding onto a lotus lantern .

There were many stalls selling lotus lanterns . All shapes and sizes were available .

Le Yao Yao chose a very exquisitely designed lantern . There was a white spot for her to write down her wish .

The stall offered brushes and ink for customers to jot down their wishes onto their lanterns . In front of her, the Emperor began to write down his wish on his lantern .

Since Le Yao Yao was too far apart from the Emperor, she couldn’t see his wish . But throughout history, all Emperors wish peace and prosperity for his country . Or maybe, great weather for crops .

Le Yao Yao also decided to write down her wish on her lantern .  What was her biggest wish right now?

Returning back to the 21st century seemed impossible . But this era was probably against her . She had lost her money twice already . If she could have any wish granted, it would be to find her missing money .

Thinking of this, Le Yao Yao picked up the brush and began to write down her wish . But Le Yao Yao had no idea that Leng Jun Yu was standing near her and saw her wish . When he read it, his eyes flickered .

Suddenly, Le Yao Yao saw a figure quickly approaching her and leaned his head in, “What’s your wish?”
