C49 (1/2)
Today, the people in the manor had busied themselves for the entire day. Compared to the bustling of the manor, the activities of the Bu family did not seem to have changed much. It was as if they were living a normal life. Night had finally begun to fall.
Inside Bu Jinghua's room, he saw Bu Jinghua lying on the bed. He was bored to death as he took out the red embroidered box that Long Yan had given him earlier. He wanted to see what the so-called ”love token” was.
However, there definitely wouldn't be any good stuff in here. As expected …
”Little girl, don't let me destroy you. Otherwise, I won't forgive you!” Opening the red box, there was only a piece of paper inside, and the words on the paper seemed to be very threatening.
God, how dare he put such a note in a brocade box! Why was he so confident that Bu Jinghua would not open the box that day? If the box was opened, wouldn't everyone see it? Then would his secret colleagues, who he played the fool, be discovered?
Why on earth did he think she would not have opened the box? The truth was that she really didn't open the box in public. If she wasn't curious, she wouldn't have opened it now.
It seemed like he quite understood her.
If she had opened the box that day, what would he have done? He should have long been prepared! And that preparation would only do her harm! Looking at that note, the corner of Bu Jinghua's mouth curled up. Wasn't this note the same as a letter of challenge?
Before she even passed the door, he already gave her this kind of 'love token'. Hmph, good, very good, originally, she really had no interest in playing with this' fool ', but she never thought that this fool would be so bold as to tease her today, even giving her such a' threatening letter '. Hmph, he was wrong, the fault was that he didn't know that she was' frightened 'from the start.
She decided to waste time with him.
The sinister smile on the corner of Bu Jinghua's mouth was magnified.
”Wa, what exactly is that stupid brat giving you? He was smiling so sinisterly? ”Something's off!” The hummingdragon looked at Bu Jinghua dubiously. It really thought that it was some kind of token of love.
She flew over, took a look, and suddenly said, ”Yo, so he isn't a fool. How can he write such a sinister threat to a fool? Acting dumb? This brat was quite scheming. Little girl, you've been targeted by him again, right? ” The Bee Dragon saw through everything with a single glance. Today, she truly thought that he was a fool and had acted very like one. Even she had nearly been fooled by him.
”Acting dumb? ”Hmph, don't think that only he would …” Bu Jinghua retracted his gaze and became even more vicious.
”Tsk tsk, silly boy, now you're in trouble, which kind of person isn't easy to mess with, yet you have to mess with this girl? You're done for!” Looking at Bu Jinghua, the Bee Dragon felt the viciousness in her heart, and started to pray for the brat who was pretending to be stupid.
”Jinghua, are you asleep? It's grandpa who has something to say to you! ” Knocking sounds came from outside the door. Bu Batian stood outside, waiting for Bu Jinghua's response.
”Oh, not yet, please wait!” Bu Jinghua quickly put away the slip of paper, put on his clothes and went down the bed to open the door. The hummingdragon also quickly snuck into Bu Jinghua's arms.
The candles in the room lit up, and the door opened. Bu Batian walked in and sat down at the table. Bu Jinghua followed him and sat down as well.
”Jing Hua, from what the butler said, since you're not prepared today, tomorrow's wedding …” After Bu Batian gave the marriage to Bu Jinghua, he locked himself up in his ancestor's room for the entire day. He only came out now, he did not expect to find out about this matter.
Nothing? What kind of concept was that?
Bu Batian was puzzled. He thought that Bu Jinghua would really do well, but now … What did this girl think? What are you trying to do?
”Grandfather, don't worry. I'll do as I please!” Bu Jinghua comforted him with a smile.
”What arrangement?” Can you talk it out with grandpa? ” Bu Batian was curious. He heard from the butler that the news of the Bu Family getting a dowry of one million gold had spread, but Shocking Flower had never discussed the matter of the one million gold with the butler. What was going on?
”Grandfather, do you think that one must have a dowry when marrying someone?” Bu Jinghua's rhetorical question gave Bu Jingtian quite a shock. Isn't it better to have more dowry? Surely all women think so.
However, there was no requirement. Bu Batian doubtfully shook his head.
That's it. Since there's no rule, then I mean we should avoid it. First, we should avoid trouble. Secondly, I don't like complicated situations!” Bu Jinghua said. He had actually made up his mind to escape in the future. If the husband made a mistake, the dowry could still be returned, but if he made a mistake, he would be confiscated completely … Carrying a dowry and suffering a loss with her, she had already thought about this a long time ago.
”This... Is it too much of a grievance to you? ” The Bu Clan was not a poor family, so they could afford a one million dowry. But Jinghua actually said he didn't like it … He couldn't force it.
”Grandfather, don't worry! I like simplicity the most! Wasn't it better to be simple? Why should it be so complicated? ” Bu Jinghua sweetly smiled.
Sigh, how could Bu Batian not know about this girl's thoughts? She was completely considering things for the Bu Family. A million gold was still of great use to the Bu Family.
In that case, fine! But no matter how simple it is, you must take it! ” Bu Batian took out a pearl necklace from his chest. Each pearl was as big as a longan and each was bright and clear. There was even a beautiful pendant on it. The pendant was like a drop of crystal clear red tear; it looked like a ruby.
”This is …” Bu Jinghua was also attracted by the chain. Even though she didn't like to wear accessories, the chain was just too beautiful. Looking at the chain made people want to cry. There was always a hint of sadness in her heart.
”Pearl's Tears …” ”This is something your mother left for you. She said that she would give it to you as your dowry on the day of your marriage!” Bu Batian's words carried an indescribable sadness.
