Chapter 662: 648, A bit far for
to roll away (2)_1
She bit her lip, a hint of hesitation in her eyes.
Jian Qing noticed her rather conflicted expression out of the corner of his eye, his gaze flashing slightly, “If Princess Yukiko has sothing to say, feel free to speak.”
Ito Yukiko paused, then looked up into his penetrating dark eyes, her cheeks tinted a light red.
“Jian Qing, how has your younger brother been doing recently?”
During that banquet, Jian Qing and Jian Luo walked into the Banquet Hall together. The first person she noticed was that man who was as soft and smooth as jade.
Afterwards, she regretted not being more assertive. A year has passed since the banquet, but his face and figure are still vivid in her mind.
Even the suitors who her father intentionally arranged for her were rejected by her. She was certain that her feelings for Jian Luo were more than just a re crush, it was love.
“…”
Jian Qing saw the shy expression on her face and the fleeting hope in her eyes, and her lips twitched almost imperceptibly.
What’s happening?
Could it be that Princess Yukiko is in love with her brother Luo?
“Princess Yukiko, you”
“Just call
Yukiko.”
Jian Qing chuckled lightly, “Yukiko, why suddenly ask about my brother, do you guys know each other?”
“Jian Qing, speaking frankly here, at that banquet, in the mont when Jian Luo appeared with you, I fell for him.” As she said this, her eyes sparkled, and the blush on her cheeks burned hotter.
Her guess was indeed correct.
Jian Qing was silent, looking at Yukiko’s hopeful gaze, she felt so reluctance to tell her that Jian Luo already had a woman he liked.
The flowers fall in the running water, it was indeed a difficult situation.
“Yukiko, I’m afraid I might have to apologize to you on behalf of my brother.”
“Huh?” Ito Yukiko looked puzzled.
Jian Qing cleared his throat, and said, “My brother already has soone he likes.”
As soon as the words ca out, the blush on Ito Yukiko’s face faded away, her face turning ghastly white, his words echoing in her ears.
Did he already have soone he likes?
How could this have happened?
Was her confession already too late even before she had a chance to say it out?
Her pupils contracted, and her lips drew a bitter curve, causing Jian Qing to hesitate at the sight of it.
It seed that after getting pregnant, her heart softened as well.
“Yukiko, I’m sorry!”
Ito Yukiko lifted her eyes to et her clear gaze, and forced a smile, “You don’t need to apologize, my fondness for Jian Luo is my own affair. Even if he likes soone else, he doesn’t owe
anything.”
Because, it was her one-sided crush, and she couldn’t bla anyone.
“Yukiko, you will find your own happiness.” Jian Qing suddenly felt that Yukiko was sowhat similar to Mingyan.
Ito Yukiko gentled smiled, concealing the disappointnt in her eyes. “Jian Qing, could you tell
what kind of a person the lady Jian Luo likes is?”
Jian Qing curved her lips slightly, “That person has been with Jian Luo for more than ten years. It can be said that she is present in every fragnt of his life. She is irreplaceable and unique for Jian Luo.”
More than ten years?
Ito Yukiko was stunned. She realized she had not lost unfairly.
She smiled, acceptance dawning though her heart still ached with loss and bitterness, “Jian Qing, please pass my ssage to Jian Luo. I sincerely wish him and his ‘only one’ happiness.”
Jian Qing, “Okay, I will definitely pass on your words.”
Ito Yukiko looked at the cherry blossom tree not far away, a faint sense of desolation and acceptance hidden in her eyes.
Jian Luo, I hope the wind could carry my blessings to you.
Hopefully, in the next life, I would be the first one to et you.
“Jian Qing, our royal family has a ga at the ranch this afternoon. Would you and the CEO like to co over?” After arranging her emotions, Ito Yukiko invited them.
Jian Qing shook her head, “I’ll pass.”
“Even if you can’t ride a horse, you can still enjoy watching.” Ito Yukiko thought she couldn’t ride a horse, hence the refusal, so she gently added.
Jian Qing giggled, putting her hand on her belly, “I’m pregnant, tends to feel sleepy in the afternoon.”
Most importantly, Xiaojing wouldn’t let her go to the ranch.
“You’re pregnant?” Ito Yukiko looked surprised at her flat belly, where even her loose coat couldn’t hint at the signs of pregnancy.
“Yes.” Jian Qing nodded.
“Congratulations.” Ito Yukiko said with a smile.
“Both you and the CEO are so good-looking, your child will definitely be very beautiful as well.”
Jian Qing, “Thank you.”
“Big sister!”
The charming voice suddenly broke into their conversation.
Underneath the cherry blossom tree, a woman was dressed in a light yellow kimono, with long black hair tied up behind her, adorned with a gorgeous hairpin.
She walked over slowly, carrying a sweet and harmless smile on her face adorned with rouge.
Jian Qing cast her a glance and withdrew her gaze.
“Yukiko, who is that?”
“That’s my half-sister, Keiko.” Ito Yukiko’s smile faded slightly as she saw the newcor.
While they were talking, Ito Keiko had already ascended the steps and stepped into the pavilion.
She placed her hands overlapped on her belly, poised and elegant. When her gaze fell on Jian Qing, a touch of jealousy flashed in her heart, “Big sister, is this woman the wife of the CEO?”
Just looking at this face, one would want to ruin it!
Ito Yukiko watched her with a cautious gaze, her response was a slight nod, “Huizi, do you need sothing?”
“Big sister, I heard that the CEO’s wife was chatting with you here. I heard that she’s a breathtaking beauty, so I was curious and wanted to co and see for myself. Big sister, you won’t be mad at , would you?” Ito Keiko seed a bit uncomfortable, pretending to appear innocent.
Ito Yukiko, “Of course not. But as far as I know, you should be attending your flower arranging class at this ti. How do you have the ti to co here?”
Ito Keiko quickly caught on, she laughed sweetly and said, “I heard that there were so important guests arriving at the palace these few days. So, I decided to help you share so of your burdens, and specifically cancelled the classes I arranged for these days.”
Ito Yukiko glanced at her, but didn’t say anything further.
She didn’t say a word, but it didn’t an that Ito Keiko would behave, “Big sister, may I sit here with you two?”
Ito Yukiko looked at Jian Qing, saw no objection from her, and said lightly, “Have a seat.”
Unsure if it was intentional or not, Ito Keiko walked to Jian Qing’s side, trying to sit down next to her.
Just as she was about to sit, a cold voice ca from the side.
“I’m sorry, but the perfu you’re wearing is too strong. Please keep your distance.”
The hidden aning was, roll as far away as possible.
Ito Keiko froze, her face was a bit embarrassed, she was stuck in a predicant of whether to sit or stand.
Across her, Ito Yukiko heard Jian Qing’s words and let out a hint of laughter in her eyes. However, on the surface, she still gave Ito Keiko a chance to step down.
“Huizi, Jian Qing is pregnant. Pregnant won tend to be sensitive to slls. You can sit next to .”
