Chapter 1129: Chapter 1128: A Person with a Story

Luo Yirui eagerly went out of the castle with his mom, arriving at the grass by the lake where several small figures were lighting Kongming Lanterns from below, lifting them high, and releasing them together.

There were failures during the process, but after several attempts, the Kongming Lanterns would fly high into the sky.

Luo Yirui watched eagerly on the side, wanting to release the Kongming Lantern!

However...

He glanced at the Little Fatty among the children, but didn’t move.

Of course, the Little Fatty also saw Luo Yirui, scratched his head with his hand, feeling somewhat embarrassed. Even though he hadn’t done anything, he somehow felt guilty towards Luo Yirui. What’s going on?

But Jing Yuansi waved at Luo Yirui, saying, "Come and release the Kongming Lantern together!"

Luo Yirui stood in place, hesitated for a moment, turned his head to look at his mom, and when he saw her smile and nod at him, he grinned and ran over with joy.

Seeing Luo Yirui running over, the Little Fatty giggled and proactively handed a Kongming Lantern over. Luo Yirui hesitated with a proud expression before accepting it.

Beisitian stepped back a few paces; all releasing the Kongming Lanterns were children, including those from Ancient Families and Modern Families. These Kongming Lanterns must have been provided by the Nie Family.

She noted that while the Kongming Lanterns were being released by the children, there were also adults watching not far off. She even saw several members from Ancient Families who should have attended the courtyard banquet.

Wen Xin stood from a distance, wearing an off-the-shoulder goose-yellow long dress. Just by standing there, she exuded a gentle and beautiful aura. Her face carried a serene smile, full of hope as she watched the Kongming Lanterns soaring into the sky.

This picture of beauty would move any man who saw it.

Standing not far from her was Chu Fenglei and another young man, not particularly handsome but tall and thin, quite striking. The most important thing was their status, not their appearances.

The two stood together, seemingly familiar with each other. The man would occasionally glance at Wen Xin, and feeling his gaze, Wen Xin worked even harder to project her beauty.

Quite close to them was the woman who, with the Little Fatty, had disdainfully looked at the Modern Families during the day. Her name was You Mingxiang, the younger sister of the current head of the Xunyue School; she looked young but was actually over fifty.

It takes more than just being a Mystic Doctor to maintain youthfulness; one must understand and persist in health maintenance.

At that moment, You Mingxiang gazed at Wen Xin with total disdain, turned, and walked the other way, muttering under her breath, "Lowly!"

Women can tell when other women are being fake, but men perceive women entirely differently.

The only young ones around were Chu Fenglei and that man, and the rest, whether old or young, were quite immune to Wen Xin.

You Mingxiang passed by Beisitian, not sparing her a glance, and stood elsewhere, clearly showing her disdain for Wen Xin.

Stopping, You Mingxiang cast a glance at Beisitian and snorted coldly, "None of them are good people."

Beisitian frowned, "Have you been hurt by a man?"

You Mingxiang glared at Beisitian, apparently not expecting her to say such a thing.

The two Ancient Family members standing not far from them were also surprised by the direct response from the head of the Qingyu School, watching with interest.

"You look like a woman with a grudge; you must have quite a story," Beisitian smiled slightly.
