Chapter 989: Yuan Yuwan (2)

With that, she pulled Little Jiajia into the crowd. MO Yuan hurriedly followed.

However, it was not easy to find someone in Hidden Spirit Temple. The few of them walked for about half an hour, but they did not find Xiao Qirui. Instead, they walked further and further away.

“Could you have seen it wrongly?” Little Jiajia looked around. This should be the back mountain of the Hidden Spirit Temple. There were only a few halls offering Buddha, and there was no one else around. It was much more desolate than before.

“Impossible. That must be Xiao Qirui,” Xiao Ruoshui said firmly.

“Alright, let’s look again.”

“Miss Xiao?” A voice sounded beside her.

The few of them looked over and saw a maidservant about the same age as MO Yuan. She was standing in the opposite corridor and looking over, as if she was confirming something.

When she saw Xiao Ruoshui’s face clearly, she was delighted and jogged over. “Miss Xiao, it’s really you. I thought I was seeing things.”

“You Bai, why are you here?” Xiao Ruoshui slapped her forehead. “If you’re here, then Sister Yuwan must be here too.”

“That’s right. Miss came to the Hidden Spirit Temple to chant scriptures and pray for the old master. Just now, I went to help Miss deliver the Buddhist scriptures she copied.”

“I’ve lived here with Miss for three days. I was about to go down the mountain today when I happened to meet Miss Xiao.”

Without needing Xiao Ruoshui to ask, You Bai finished explaining everything.

“Then we can go down the mountain together later. Where is Sister Yuwan now? Hurry up and bring me there.”

You Bai led the way.

Xiao Ruoshui introduced her to Little Jiajia in a low voice. “Sister Yuwan is the eldest daughter of the Yuan family. She’s three years older than me and has been engaged to my brother since a very young age. She’s my future sister-in-law.”

“Childhood sweethearts.” Little Jiajia’s eyes lit up with excitement. “You said that you saw your brother just now, and Miss Yuan is here. Could it be that they made an appointment?”

Xiao Ruoshui thought for a moment and shook her head. “That’s impossible. My brother is more of a blockhead, and Sister Yuwan is very well-behaved. The two of them don’t meet.” It was even more impossible for her to secretly date without telling her family.

Little Jiajia could not understand.

As the two of them spoke, they had already followed You Bai into a side hall. In the middle was also a benevolent-looking Buddha statue. In front of the Buddha statue, a graceful girl knelt quietly on a futon and muttered something.

You Bai raised a finger and made a shushing gesture. Xiao Ruoshui and Little Jiajia stopped talking.

After waiting for a while, Little Jiajia almost suspected that the girl in front of her had fallen asleep. The girl finally opened her eyes and kowtowed deeply to the Buddha statue.

You Bai quickly went forward and helped her up. “Miss, Miss Xiao is here.”

Yuan Yuwan turned around and smiled when she saw the person behind her.

She called out to Sister Ruoshui and bowed to Little Jiajia. “Greetings, Princess.”

Little Jiajia blinked, feeling inexplicably sour.

It was different from the joy she felt when she first saw her little husband, nor was it like the sudden good impression she had of Xiao Ruoshui. Looking at Miss Yuan, her heart ached even more.

She knew that all of this stemmed from the dreams she had. It was clearly her first time in Great Xia, but she was very familiar with everything here.

Xiao Ruoshui did not notice that something was wrong with Little Jiajia. She went forward and held Yuan Yuwan’s arm. She chuckled. “How did Sister Yuwan know that this is a princess? I haven’t introduced her yet.”

“Didn’t you write to me and tell me? Although I don’t go out often, I still Imow the noble ladies in the capital. This girl looks unfamiliar. She must be the princess.”

As Yuan Yuwan spoke, she looked at Little Jiajia and noticed the sadness on her face. She asked with concern, “Princess, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”

Little Jiajia shook her head. “No, I just feel that you’re very close to me.”

“I’ll follow Ruoshui and call you Sister Yuwan. Don’t call me princess anymore.

Just call me Jiajia.”

Yuan Yuwan was stunned. She smiled and said, “Alright, Jiajia.”

Xiao Ruoshui was very satisfied that the two of them could get along well. She thought of something and hurriedly said, “My mother is also here today. She’ll definitely be very happy to see Sister Yuwan.”

Yuan Yuwan nodded. “You should pay your respects to Auntie.”

As they spoke, they walked forward again. As for looking for her brother, Xiao Ruoshui had forgotten about it, so Little Jiajia wouldn’t care.

No one noticed that behind the Buddha statue stood a young man in an indigo brocade robe.

After their conversation faded away, the young man walked out.

If Xiao Ruoshui was here, she would have recognized him.. Wasn’t this her brother, whom she had been looking for for a long time?
