Chapter 977 - 539: Ah Qing Is a Greedy Girl (Double - )

Ah Qing held Huang’Er’s hand and looked in the direction where Yun Qian was.

She lowered her head and shook it slightly.

Thinking carefully, the idea that she would like Yun Qian was written all over with the word absurd.

As someone in the Qiankun Realm, to be enchanted by a woman’s charm... if one were to make an analogy...

Ah Qing squeezed Huang’Er’s hand.

"Ni Zi."

"Hmm?" Huang’Er was busy counting the time until Ah Qing would go on stage, feeling very nervous.

"All the girls here know you’re such a little foodie, don’t they?" Ah Qing said.

"Eh?" Huang’Er was taken aback, not understanding Ah Qing’s meaning, but after some thought, she nodded with a blush, "Ms. Qing, if your performance goes well this time, I’ll take you to eat all the delicious food at our Flower Moon Building."

She patted her chest with confidence and said, "Beisang City has some great places only I know about."

"You really love food." Ah Qing chuckled, then asked casually, "Ni Zi, if one day you have tasted all the delicacies in the world, and you go back to eat these street snacks, would you still be enchanted?"

"...?"

The girl in yellow tilted her head.

Why was sister asking this?

But since she wasn’t very smart to begin with, she stopped overthinking it, and just spoke from her heart: "Is sister testing whether I have ambition? Hmph... if I really get to eat all over the world someday, I definitely wouldn’t bother with Flower Moon Building’s snacks anymore."

By then, why would she even eat Flower Moon Building’s snacks?

She would recreate every delicacy she had tasted over the years for the sisters at Flower Moon Building, who would eat ordinary snacks then?

"See, even you, such a little one, can understand this." Ah Qing pressed her fingers against her forehead. "Why did I... get trapped?"

It’s incomprehensible.

Ultimately, how could Ah Qing like Yun Qian?

It’s like someone with all the riches in the world suddenly treasures a single copper coin over everything else they own, yet this copper coin holds no added significance, maybe just a little prettier, but the value remains the same.

How could she be so enchanted?

Ah Qing’s head hurt vaguely.

Although girls always say liking doesn’t need a reason, this was the one thing that the more she thought about, the more she found it confounding.

"Ms. Qing, what are you thinking about... you’re about to go on stage, why are you still lost in thought?" Huang’Er shook Ah Qing’s arm disapprovingly, trying to refocus her.

"What do you know?" Ah Qing shook her head. "I’m just adjusting my mindset."

"...?" Huang’Er blinked and said no more.

Ah Qing shook her head.

Today’s performance seemed like she was being pushed on stage, as Zhu Pingnian had her integrate into the Flower Moon Building... but for Ah Qing herself, the so-called Sword Dance was something she dedicated to just a few people.

These people included Zhu Pingnian, the Huang’Er in front of her, Young Master Xu on the high platform, and then Yun Qian.

But Xu Chang’an wouldn’t watch women dance, so he was out of the question.

Zhu Pingniang?

With her mind full of drugging Li Zhibai, she’s certainly tangled with him right now, with no time to watch her dance. As for the Huang’Er in front of her... being purely family, it’s really unnecessary to say she’s dancing for her.

After all the calculations, only Yun Qian was left.

So it can be said that her next dance is dedicated solely to Yun Qian.

She was about to go on stage to perform for Yun Qian, offering a dance for the first time in her life for a girl. Of course, Ah Qing needed to figure out Yun Qian’s significance to her before stepping onto the stage.

Otherwise, should it be said that she’s blinded by Yun Qian’s beauty and joyfully dances on stage to show off her figure in front of the girl she fancies?

Ah Qing: "..."

Tsk.

It has to be said, there’s indeed a touch of that, but... in terms of feminine charm, she and Yun Qian are worlds apart.

Ah Qing lowered her brow, thoughtfully fidgeting with the hem of her short skirt.

So, being more charming is the right choice?

After all, in any aspect, be it her looks or figure, as a woman, she pales in comparison to Yun Qian, so why should a girl better than her notice her?

Of course she should have what Yun Qian does not.

And at the moment, while this Miss Yun is adequately elegant and even cute, she isn’t particularly seductive.

"Does this count as a happy accident?" Ah Qing felt the coolness of her short skirt, covering her face with one hand: "But if this is the case..."

If that’s the case, her behavior seemed less like dedicating a dance and more like seducing Yun Qian?

Kidding.

What’s more, for a woman, dressing skimpily doesn’t necessarily imply being seductive. Ah Qing was well aware that inherently, she wasn’t someone who displayed her feminine allure, so pretending to be seductive... was indeed a tall order for her.

"Happy accident?" Huang’Er looked at Ah Qing clutching the skirt in bewilderment, wondering if sister was still shy.

"Ahem, nothing." Ah Qing waved her hand: "Ni Zi, did you just say that Auntie thinks I have some Inner Charm?"

"Ah?"

Huang’Er was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Auntie said that..."

She paused, hastily explaining: "Ms. Qing, Auntie didn’t mean you’re a fox spirit."
