Chapter 380: Marrying Brother Jinyan

“What other wishes do you have besides marrying Jinyan?”

She thought about it for a while. There didn’t seem to be anything else she wanted, except perhaps another kiss…

Hey, hold that thought, Ye Erruo. What are you thinking of?

Clenching her shell-like teeth, she squashed the plushie in her arms in frustration. That rogue is to blame for my weird thought!

“So what other wishes do you have? Have you ever wished that you didn’t need to get married so you could stay by my side?”

She turned her head sideways and glanced at him. “How would I marry Brother Jinyan if I stayed by your side forever?”

The man didn’t know how to answer his sister. Seriously, all she could talk about was Brother Jinyan nowadays. In fact, the man even reckoned that there was no need for Mo Jiangye to appear since she was so smitten with Bo Jinyan. He doubted her real husband would be able to tear her away from her childhood sweetheart.

Meanwhile, Bo Yu could feel a cold, forbidding sense of menace emanating from his young master.

Yu Linfeng took his sister to an extensive, broad river where the water was beautifully lit up by water lanterns. A glowing gigantic tree stood in the center of the river, where red threads and tokens of prayer were hanging from the branches.

“Do you want to go over?”

The lady scanned the surroundings with her eyes. She could see a number of small rowing boats docked nearby.

“Don’t you wish to marry Brother Jinyan? You can write down your wish and hang it from that lucky tree over there. Your wish will come true.”

She did not buy into it, though.

Under the nightlights, the water lanterns floated on the river and slowly drifted into the distance.

The lanterns came in all shapes and sizes, turning the river into a beautiful, surreal experience. The place was bustling with life, and many couples could be spotted in the crowd.

After she got in a boat, she turned her head to look past her shoulder. To her pleasant surprise, she caught a glimpse of the man who had just taken advantage of her. Her heart started to pound furiously.

“What are you looking at?” Her brother followed the direction of her gaze and looked into the distance, but he could not make out anyone or anything that might have caught her attention in the maddening crowd.

She hastily turned to face the front again. “Nothing much.”

After the boat reached the riverbank, she would often turn to gaze behind her. True enough, that man had followed her across the river.

However, she was very disappointed when she did not see him again upon turning her head to check again. With a sinking feeling, she wondered if she had read too much into his actions. She had assumed that he was stalking her.

“Xiao Ruo, what are you looking at?”

“Oh, I’m admiring the lanterns. Where do these lanterns drift to?”

Her brother replied with a smile, “This is a long, winding river. Do you like bunnies?”

The woman dipped her head to glance at the bunny in her arms and pursed her lips momentarily before replying, “Yes.”

“I’ll get you a cage of rabbits later.”

“…”

He took her further into the island. The glowing tree was in the center of the river on the island. Besides the prayer belts, she could also see many little light bulbs hanging from the branches of the tree.

What was even more amazing was that a door was visible on the tree. Beyond the door was the sea world. A see-through, arched corridor formed a passageway through the underwater world. All around them, fish and seaweed abound.

She remembered that Brother Jinyan would often bring her to the underwater world when they were little. They would also ride his dolphin to explore many places.

“Where is this place?”

“This is where the water deity lives.”

“Water deity?”

“Those who pray to this deity for a good marriage or relationship will get their wishes granted.”

“Achoo!” Ye Erruo let out a loud sneeze as she walked further in with her brother. Many people were streaming out of the place of interest as well.

Mo Jiangye, who was tailing them, felt grouchy when he saw her sneeze. It’s cold. Why didn’t that silly *sshole get her another coat?

His assistant, who was closely following his master, blurted out suddenly, “Young Master, I noticed that Young Madam…”
