Releasing Kongming Lanterns (2)

Even Xiao Zhuer herself was puzzled, not to mention the others. There were many people in the vicinity who had dealt with Xiao Zhuer, and they all knew that Xiao Zhuer was a typical strong woman.

A girl who started managing the family business at the age of ten and has grown the Lineage business bigger and bigger, and is still expanding, has enormous potential. You can imagine how formidable she is.

At this point, many people want to say that age is not the problem; the problem is whether you can do it!

It is rare to see such a strong young woman showing her childlike side in public; it is a truly remarkable sight.

"Just call me brother, little sister. Is there anything I can help you with?" Ye Lang didn't answer the question because he didn't want to lie to a little girl.

"Brother, can you tell me where you bought this teddy bear?" Xiao Zhuer didn't seem to care about why Ye Lang wasn't answering her question; she was more interested in the teddy bear in her hand.

"This was custom-made by me. Isn't it cute?" Ye Lang replied. He had been bored and, having run out of ideas for how to squander his money, he had these useless things made.

"Then tell me, this wasn't bought, but something you came up with yourself?" Xiao Zhuer's eyes lit up, and she excitedly grabbed Ye Lang's arm.

"You could say that!" Ye Lang nodded.

"Then brother, can I produce this teddy bear to sell?" Xiao Zhuer asked directly. The market for this was huge; girls would probably all like to hug something like this.

The little toy Ye Lang made before required alchemy, which Xiao Zhuer couldn't make, but this one is different; the materials needed for this one are very simple.

"Sure!" Ye Lang nodded. He didn't mind. This was something that was very common on the market, of course, back on Earth.

"Hehe, it's settled then. I'll definitely share some of the money with you, brother!" Xiao Zhuer said.

"No need, I don't like dividends, I have enough money." Ye Lang refused outright. "Little sister, I'm going to chat with the big sister, you go play somewhere else."

Ye Lang wanted to send Xiao Zhuer away; he was going to find Li Yue. It was better for a little girl not to watch such high-level operations done by adults.

"No! I want to go too, I also like chatting with big sister!" Xiao Zhuer didn't let Ye Lang have his way, and tugged at Ye Lang's clothes and shouted.

Xiao Zhuer's behavior stunned many people present. Was this still the same Boss Zhu? She seemed like a spoiled girl next door.

"Get lost! I'm going to pick up girls, what are you doing following me around like a little girl?!" Ye Lang said bluntly, leaving no room for tact.

"..."

You really dare to say that? To say that you're going to pick up girls and not care about your sister, uh, no, I mean, the one who looks like your sister, Boss Zhu.

Those around him admired Ye Lang for being so straightforward!

"I want to learn too, I have a lot of admirers," Xiao Zhuer said.

"Are you joking?" Ye Lang looked at Xiao Zhuer, sizing her up and down.

"Really?! I'm very excellent!!" Xiao Zhuer said somewhat angrily, as Ye Lang was clearly looking down on her.

In fact, Xiao Zhuer is indeed pursued by many people because of her abilities and wealth. She was able to turn a Lineage business that was losing money every year and was on the verge of bankruptcy into a thriving business that is now incredibly wealthy.

"Yeah, you're really great. The guys who're pursuing you are probably all just little kids, right?" Ye Lang asked with a smile.

"..." Xiao Zhuer didn't want to speak because she felt insulted. If it were in the past, she would have definitely lashed out at Ye Lang, but she didn't this time, which was what puzzled her.

Today she felt very strange. Everything was so strange. Why did she have this feeling towards this Fox Tribe? She felt like he was her older brother. Apart from the Thirteenth Young Master Ye, no one else could give her that feeling.

And it was this feeling that made me feel like a little sister, doing things that I never thought I would do.

Ye Lang is quite frustrated now. He originally wanted to use this moon-viewing party to pick up girls, but instead, he got entangled with a girl and couldn't shake her off.

Ye Lang didn't have a chance to speak with Li Yue until the moon-viewing party ended. He was pulled away by Xiao Zhuer to light lanterns and guess riddles...

Oh well, let's just treat it as accompanying my sister to the lantern festival!

Finally, Ye Lang gave up struggling and decided to have some fun with Xiao Zhuer!

"Little sister, come here, let me teach you some new tricks. Just lighting lanterns isn't fun anymore!" After giving up, Ye Lang started playing with lanterns with Xiao Zhuer.

"What new tricks?" Xiao Zhuer asked excitedly, at this moment she was just like a little girl.

Seeing Xiao Zhuer like this, many people felt gratified, because in their eyes, although Xiao Zhuer was strong, she lacked some childlike innocence, and no one shared the childhood she should have had with her.

Now, Ye Lang's appearance seems to have given Xiao Zhuer the childlike innocence she should have!

"Find a lighter lantern, hmm, this one is good. Remove all the useless stuff on it, then cover the top of the lantern with glue, and then light it!" Ye Lang said as he modified the lantern.

"Huh?" Xiao Zhuer was a little confused. What was this for? "Brother, this lantern is all bare, it's not pretty at all..."

"The appearance doesn't matter, you won't be able to see it anyway. The most important thing is that it can fly..." Ye Lang said with a smile. What he was making was Kongming Lantern.

"Fly?! You mean lanterns can fly?" Xiao Zhuer Outer Dao.

"Hmm! This is Kongming Lantern!" Ye Lang lit the Kongming Lantern he had just made, and after gathering heat, the Kongming Lantern slowly rose into the air under everyone's watchful eyes.

"Wow, it really flew, brother, it really flew..." Xiao Zhuer shouted excitedly.

"Hmph, what's so great about it? It's just alchemy!" someone said disdainfully, thinking that Ye Lang had used some kind of alchemy on the lantern.

"It's nothing special! But this isn't alchemy; it's just the principle of rising heat!" Ye Lang said calmly.

"Hmph! You're lying!"

Ye Lang completely ignored this and said to Xiao Zhuer, "Sister, let's go all out and put all the lanterns up. That will be beautiful."

"Okay, I already have a lot of inventory here, and I don't know what to do with it..." Xiao Zhuer said, and she seemed to have let slip that she was holding this moon-viewing party because there were some things she couldn't sell.
