Forced to be a concubine, I went to my husband's place to become a wealthy merchant

Chapter 136

Suddenly, she saw a bright light in front of her eyes, and then she heard a series of "Wow" sounds around her. Only then did she realize that it was a iron flower performance.

The performing craftsmen stood early on the viewing platform extending to the center of the lake, waiting for the time to come to begin the performance.

The golden iron flowers bloomed, fell, and disappeared in front of her.

Then, Ye Xi also kept making "wow" sounds, her eyes fixed on those beautiful and short-lived iron flowers.

Wei Jue's eyes were fixed on her face, as if he could not get enough of her expression.

When did he start to like her? He didn't know. At first he was just attracted by her beauty, but later he was attracted by her intelligence. He liked her temperament, both the good and the bad.

"Look, it's so beautiful!" Ye Xi suddenly grabbed Wei Jue's arm excitedly, interrupting his thoughts and asking him to watch the iron flower performance that had amazed her just now.

It was a very ordinary sentence, but because of her actions, in Wei Jue's eyes, it was just a girl acting coquettishly.

This action was reflected in Wei Jue's eyes like a slow motion and was engraved in his mind. It seemed that an extremely beautiful flower was blooming in his heart.

After the iron flower performance, fireworks were set off, and Ye Xi watched with great interest.

After all the fireworks were over, Wei Jue took her to a stall selling glutinous rice balls and asked the stall owner for a bowl of glutinous rice balls.

When Ye Xi saw that he only ordered one bowl, she thought he was very stingy. There were so many people around, but he only bought one bowl for himself.

She had originally thought about buying a few more bowls with her own money for the guards, but she gave up after taking a look at Wei Jue who was scooping up the glutinous rice balls and blowing on them to let them cool.

She didn't care about the money, but she was afraid that someone would think she was meddling and give her a hard time.

"Come, have one." Suddenly Wei Jue handed the small spoon in his hand to Ye Xi's mouth.

Ye Xi was stunned for a moment. Was this for her to eat? She felt sick and didn't want to eat, so she said, "I'm not hungry."

"I didn't ask you whether you were hungry or not. Just eat when I told you to." Wei Jue said firmly.

Ye Xi glanced around and saw Liusu, Xue Jiu and the others all lowered their heads silently, not daring to look at them.

There were some unsuspecting pedestrians around staring at them as if they were watching a show, and she felt very embarrassed.

So he whispered to Wei Jue: "I'm really not hungry. They are all looking at us." Then he motioned Wei Jue to look around.

But Wei Jue didn't care at all what the people around him thought of them, he just stared at Ye Xi.

This time he didn't say anything, but the look in his eyes as he stared at Ye Xi was like an eagle's glare and a tiger's, and the feeling of oppression came directly to her.

Ye Xi sensed Wei Jue's surprise and did not dare to refuse anymore. She quickly ate the glutinous rice balls in his hand.

The glutinous rice balls were actually cold, but she felt they were too hot to swallow. After she finally managed to eat one, Wei Jue fed her another one.

After Wei Jue saw that she had finally eaten both, he handed the bowl to her and said, "It's your turn to feed me."

Ye Xi's expression froze, he raised his eyes to look at Wei Jue's face, after hesitating, he quickly took the bowl, did it again as he had just done, and fed Wei Jue two dumplings with his own hands.

There are four dumplings in a bowl, and they each eat two, as they believe in the auspiciousness of even numbers.

After eating the dumplings, Wei Jue wanted to take Ye Xi around the stalls and let her buy some things she liked.

Ye Xi was feeling a little unhappy because of the incident just now, and her expression was so stiff that she couldn't even force a smile.

But she was frightened by his intimidation just now, so she picked a few pieces absentmindedly, wanting to quickly end this so-called excitement.
