Chapter 115: Hang Bao festival 1!
Morning came, and the soft, gentle rays of the morning sunlight peeked through the windows in the room, where two people were sleeping and hugging each other so closely.
Zhang Fumin gazed down at her little brother's face, who was still sleeping, his face buried on her chest.
Her fingers are combing her little brother's delicate white hair, playing with it, and she could feel his constant breath hitting her chest.
Her eyes softened in affection and she has already realized her own feelings.
She loves this man lying on her arms and just hugging him like this in bed is making her happy.
Never ever in her life has she expected that she would fall head over heels for a man and that man would be the one whom she sees in a random snow forest.
A soft sight escaped her lips and it still hurts her that he sees her as a big sister and respects her...
She was also okay with this first but... right now, she doesn't want this...
She wants him to see her as a potential romantic partner, not just as a big sister...
'But... he will surely get disgusted if he comes to know that I, as his big sister... love him...'
'Urghhh!'
As she was screaming in her mind, she felt slight movements on her chest and she glanced down at Zhang Yuan who was slowing waking up.
"Yuan..."
Zhang Yuan raised his head to look at Zhang Fumin and lazily spoke "Good morning..."
"Good morning, did you sleep well?"
"Yeah..." Mumbling he again snuglled into her and with a giggle, Zhang Fumin patted his head.
"Seems like, you like to be spoiled like this..."
Zhang Yuan again closed his eyes to sleep and Zhang Fumin giggled, her hands getting tighter on his neck.
...
In the dining table-
Zhang Yuan, Zhang Fumin and Ning Xia were having breakfast with laughter and banter.
Taking a bite of her meal, Ning Xia asked "Young Lady, now that you have offended the whole Empire... i think they will banish you or try to kill you soon."
Zhang Fumin gave a nod eating her food "Honestly, I thought the guards would be knocking on our door from yesterday. But they never came."
"Probably because of Little brother. Since he is powerful and that guy knows that he can't do anything to us... so he must be silent."
"Hm. I see." Ning Xia nodded her head.
Zhang Fumin turned her head to Zhang Yuan and uttered "Yuan, I thought of leaving this Empire."
Zhang Yuan, who was immersed in his food gently turned his gaze to her and asked "You are leaving the Empire?"
Zhang Fumin nodded her head "Yeah... i already got my revenge and I am already satisfied with it."
"And Yuan, you have money... so we can leave this place and wander around in other empires and also cultivate along the way to become stronger."
"Maybe Yuan, you can regain your memories and also meet your relatives."
-_- Zhang Yuan smiled dryly "I have told you many times, Big Sister, I remember everything... I do not have memory loss."
"Yeah, yeah... that's what memory loss people would say."
Ning Xia giggled upon hearing this and asked "When are we leaving, Young lady? Today is festival so..."
With a nod, Zhang Fumin replied "En, we can leave tomorrow after the festival ends."
"Oh, ok."
Zhang Fumin took a spoonful of food and extended it to Zhang Yuan. he readily accepted it as this is not new to them.
Seeing this, Ning Xia also hurriedly took a spoonful of food and brought it near his lips "Husband... here, me too."
Smiling, Zhang Yuan ate her spoonfed food and pulled her closer, placing her on his lap.
"Come here, dear..."
With that, he took a spoon ful of the meal and began to feed her.
Zhang Fumin looked at this in the corner of her eyes as she realized she would never get this luxury in her life.
She could only sigh in her heart and hope for him to turn his gaze to her.
Zhang Yuan who was feeding Ning Xia also realized that Zhang Fumin and Xiangli Fei still haven't talked to each other properly.
As they are leaving tomorrow, he needs to do that today.
...
It was already night, and a lot of people are gathering around the largest tree in the middle of the Empire.
On this day, the whole city is especially vibrant, with beautiful lanterns tied to the tree and the whole city is so colorful.
And standing in front of the tree, the Emperor was giving a speech and well wishes to everyone of his Empire.
Even though what happened yesterday was tragic and shattered his heart.
He knew that he should not include personal matters with the stuff happening with the people of this Xiangli Empire.
So he had to stand in front and greet and wish everyone.
He was humiliated yesterday because of Zhang Yuan and Xiangli Zhi in front of all of his people.
But the people of this Empire, still love their Emperor as they knew he is good hearted and a great ruler.
So, they still respect him in their hearts.
Standing in front of the people along with his second wife, he smiled heartedly "I hope everyone who came here is celebrating this festival and having a good time."
The people smiled seeing his smile and Xiangli Jei spoke "And, let the celebrations begin."
With that, people began to prepare lanterns to fly them across the sky.
Xiangli Jei also joined with his people to help them create lanterns.
Ling Shi is also there, speaking with Zhang Yuan among the crowd "I am glad, Fumin... you finally got your revenge."
She gave a nod "Yeah, all thanks to Yuan."
A little later, Zhang Fumin walked to Zhang Yuan and Ning Xia who were purchasing things to create lanterns.
"Are you done?"
"yeah..."
With a smile, Zhang Fumin spoke "I know a good place... let us go there and fly these lanterns."
