"Why?" Du Pian Hong looked at his big brother in confusion, his heart feeling empty. She kept feeling that there was a deeper meaning in Eldest Brother's words, as if he wanted to use Su Lu-er's matter to tell her something. However, no matter how she thought about it, she couldn't think of any clues.
So she scratched her head in frustration and wondered if this was Du Youlong's prank again!
Du Youlong did not have the intention of chasing Su Lu-er back from the beginning to the end. He only instructed Zuo Si to report Su Lu-er's whereabouts at any time and place. He did not take any other actions after that. He found a clean place to sit down, then picked up a pot of tea from the table and poured himself a cup of tea to drink. He looked relaxed.
"Big brother! What do you want?" Du Penhong was obviously not as free as Du Youlong. She walked up to Du Youlong and patted the table in front of him."You don't chase Lu-er back, and you also don't explain the matter of the bet. Big Brother, what exactly do you want?”
Du Youlong just sat there quietly, drinking tea while closing his eyes to meditate. After a long while, he opened his lips slightly and answered the question left behind by Du Pian Hong." Lu-er might already be on her way home now. Pian Hong, if you want to win this bet, I advise you to quickly accompany Lu-er. Rather than staying here and wasting time with me, why not see what Lu-er is doing? Isn't this very good?”Du Youlong smiled slyly and pointed at his forehead. He was obviously teasing her.
It meant,'Move your head more.'
Du Pianhong was furious, so he didn't waste any more time and rushed out of Du Youlong's bedroom. As she walked, she thought about Du Youlong's evil face. She felt that she had really been unlucky for eight lifetimes to have such a top-notch brother! How could there be such a big brother who loved to play with people!
She thought angrily as she began to quicken her pace.
Xiao Jiu and Huaiyu, who were following behind her, could only follow her footsteps. Especially Huaiyu. After running all the way here, she did not have any energy left. Halfway through the journey, Huai Yu panted as she shouted for them to stop. She kept asking for a quiet place to rest. Du Pian Hong had no choice but to stop and rest for a moment.
This gamble was related to her life and death, and it was related to her future. No matter what, she could not lose!
After Du Youlong saw that everyone had left, he slowly got up and walked to the study room beside the bedroom. The study room was decorated very elegantly. There was only a green wooden desk, a cabinet for books, and a vase with orchids. The smell in the study was his favorite orchid fragrance. Du Youlong took a deep breath and then nodded happily. He felt that his mood had improved quickly. He raised his hand to open the bookcase in the corner of the room and took out an ancient wooden box from the cabinet. The appearance of the box was very delicate, and there were some exquisite patterns carved on it. Du Youlong gently brushed his hand across the surface of the box and opened it.
Inside the box were many leather envelopes, and the box was filled with them. Du Youlong picked up the stack of envelopes and opened them one by one.
The first piece of paper unfolded in front of him. He carefully read the words written on the paper: "Your son, Wandering Dragon, have you heard any news about Pian Hong's son recently? Pian Hong had been gone for a day, and the whole family was in a state of panic. The old master was still the same. Although he did not say it, he was extremely worried about Pian Hong. I wonder how Pian Hong is doing outside today?”
Du You Long read it and immediately changed to another one." My son You Long, Pian Hong has left for the second day. Mother was really uneasy and did not know if it was appropriate for her to live alone outside. Son, I beg you, please help me find your sister. I only have one daughter, but I haven't heard from her…"
"Youlong child, today is the third day, but Pian Hong child has not sent any letters to his family. Today, there were people all over Jingdou spreading the news of the Holy Palace's selection. The name of Pian Hong's child was not on the final list of conferment. Would Pian Hong run away from home because he was not chosen? Hey…my silly child…"
Du Youlong read through the thick letters one by one. From the first day Du Pian Hong left home to now, he had read every letter in detail.
Finally, his gaze stopped on the envelope he had just received today. He opened the envelope and took out the letter inside."Your son, Wandering Dragon, has been in the cold autumn weather recently. Mother is very worried about your son's health. The weather in the north is cold and dry. I must remember to take care of my health. In addition, do you know the whereabouts of Pian Hong? Pian Hong had been away for a month and had not replied to his family at all. It was really worrying. If Youlong has any news of Pian Hong, I hope you can persuade her to come back as soon as possible. This year's Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, please tell Pian Hong that I've made mooncakes and will be waiting for her at home…"
After reading the contents of the letter, Du Youlong closed his eyes in exhaustion.
He knew his little sister's personality very well.
If he didn't use a bet to determine the winner, he wouldn't have been able to persuade his "stubborn" little sister. That was why he had come up with this move. Just like when they were children, whenever they fought over something they liked together, they would settle it by betting.
This time, he must let his little sister know his painstaking efforts and his intentions!
