Chapter 319 Waiting in Line (1)
Why didnât Zhen Xiaoyan remind Ye Lang he didnât need to get in line? Well, she thought he was doing it voluntarily!
Perhaps he would have done it even if he knew. Just for funâŠ
âFor fun?! Ye Lang, you have a weird brain, what fun is this?! Iâve been standing in the sun for an hour now!! Iâll be as dark as ArwenâŠâ Zhen Xiaoyan covered her eyes, squinting as she looked up at the sun.
âIt would be very difficult for you to turn as dark as Arwen! I may not be familiar with how your bodyâs system works but Iâm sure you wonât be THAT dark. If you donât like it, you can use a hat but you wonât get as dark as you think!â Ye Lang took out an adorable hat, placing it on Zhen Xiaoyanâs head. This was one of the objects considered âuselessâ that no one had taken.
Lucky for him Arwen wasnât here, she wouldnât be very happy about itâŠ
âWhatâs this? Hey, itâs pretty! I like itâŠâ Zhen Xiaoyan took the hat off, about to complain about him putting a random hat on her head, but was instead excited when she saw it.
You could tell how cute the hat was from the way she looked at it. Zhen Xiaoyan had always only been interested in food, with no interest in clothes. She had a built-in immunity towards things like this one.
This hat seemed to fit her well too. It was shaped like a bird. A fat, round bird. It seemed to resembleâŠ
âYe LangâŠâ Zhen Xiaoyanâs eyes sparkled as if they were begging Ye Lang.
He stared at her then waved, âYou can keep it. It was meant for you anyway, this looks like the bird on your chestâŠâ
ââŠâ She fell silent, blushing with embarrassment. They were completely different! Also, why do you still remember my birthmark⊠She didnât speak because she didnât want to argue with him about it, at least not in front of everyone!
How could she?
Thank god there wasnât anyone near her, it was embarrassing!
It didnât bother her that much. What she cared more was that Ye Lang remembered her, and gave her a gift. Although he had forgotten to give it to her, this was proof he once thought of her.
âAt least youâre kind enough to give me a present, at least my cooking is not wasted!â grinned Zhen Xiaoyan with warmth in her heart. She wore the hat and struck a pose for Ye Lang.
âOf course! Iâm a good person with a lot of kindness!â
ââŠTell me, what made you think of me?â asked Zhen Xiaoyan casually. She very soon regretted it because she knew what he was going to say would only hurt her feelings.
âI was spending money on random stuff, and after I randomly bought this, I thought of you!â Ye Lang beamed with pride.
People would usually think of the person, then buy the present. It was different for Ye Lang. He first bought a lot of stuff, then sometimes think of giving it to someone.
âI knew itâŠâ she muttered. She had nothing to say.
At least this still proved he thought of her, even just for a momentâŠ
Both of them were still waiting in line, slowly inching forward. There were too many people, it took them two whole hours to reach the front.
There was now an even more terrifying line behind Ye Lang- those at the back might need to wait four to five hoursâŠ
There were simply too many people present when Sheng City started to open their gates to the public. This wasnât something they expected, they didnât think their followers would be this passionate.
It made sense if you thought about it though. It had been a few hundred years since the entire Sheng City was open, this only happened once in a century. It was only natural to have so many people here.
Ye Lang was about to arrive, approximately thirty meters away from the gates when a group of haughty young men and women. When they passed Ye Lang, after a look at Ye Lang and Zhen Xiaoyan, they stuck their noses up with disdain.
Ye Lang was wearing very casual attire, unlike the expensive fabrics he used to wear. The set he previously had were already given to some refugees, so the clothes he had on now were regular clothes other people made him.
While they were made of good quality material, they were far from what Ye Lang used to wear. Simply put, to a rich aristocrat, this was awful.
He had been very busy recently too, plus he wasnât picky with his clothes. He used to wear very expensive clothing only because he was spending money as a prodigal son, not because he wanted to wear the best clothes.
And that was why this group looked down on him. Zhen Xiaoyan, on the other hand, was a very common aristocrat. There was an obvious difference between her and the group.
Just like that, the group did not respect them at all!
However, there were many people dressed worse than Ye Lang too. Perhaps it was because they wanted to pick on someone who looked weak or because Ye Lang was too handsome.
That second reason was what Ye Lang said, of course!
No one knew why, but Ye Lang was the target. This group then cut the queue right in front of Ye Lang, obvious they wanted to use their status as a reason to get a few âspecial privilegesâ.
âHmmph!â
One of the girls took a condescending look at Zhen Xiaoyan as if comparing herself to her. She didnât dare look at Little Xin though, because that would be a huge blow to her self-esteem.
Unfortunately, the more she scrutinized Zhen Xiaoyan, the more hurt her ego was!
While Zhen Xiaoyanâs clothes were simple, she had a different aura to her. It was unique, something feminine and elegant.
She didnât feel expensive or high-class, but she was a breath of fresh air- and that itself was mesmerizing!
