Chapter 1274 Don't Say

Raelle walked away from Shui Xian and Hyson silently because she really didn't feel like listening to them or talking for that matter. She just wanted to sit somewhere in silence. So, she went to find a corner to sit in.

But she was still Raelle Xiang, no matter how much she tried to be inconspicuous, how could she be ignored? She was always the dazzling existence that made people turn and notice her even in a huge crowd. And right now, the people around her were some of the closest people in her life and their attention was always on her.

However, they still pretended like they didn't notice anything. They didn't notice her low mood, they didn't notice her intention to hide, they didn't notice her emotional struggle, and all in all, they didn't notice her at all and went about their business.

Raelle sat down in a corner and her eyes fell on the flower plants beside her. She looked at a bud and fell into a daze. Her lost child was just like this flower bud which never got the chance to bloom. It withered before she could even nurture it at all.

Suddenly, a small hand extended a bunch of pretty pink Azaleas in front of her. She didn't have to look to know who this hand belonged to. There was a little gardener in this family whose love for flowers was unmatched.

"Are these for me, Justin?"

"Yes," answered Justin in his sweet voice. "Do you like it?"

"Hmmm..." Raelle hummed in response. "They look pretty. But what's the intention?"

"Pink Azaleas are said to bring good luck and positivity. I wish you good luck."

"Oh? It's your birthday, why are you wishing me good luck?"

"Why? I can't do that?"

Raelle thought about it before saying, "It seems there is nothing wrong with this."

Justin smiled to hear that and added, "Then it's good."

"Weren't you having fun with your friends over there? Why did you come over?" asked Raelle.

"I saw you sitting alone, so I took a chance to come over."

"Do I look very pitiful and lonely?" n.-O/-v/.E.)l).b-/1)/n

"No," answered Justin. "You look sad."

"Do I now? I didn't know I was even capable of expressing sadness."

"Humans can't often tell what they are really capable of."

"Here you go talking big. Use your small brain a little less for you and grow slowly. It's not fun to grow up too fast."

"It isn't?"

"Nope. I can tell from experience. So, I wish that you grow slowly, safely, happily, and lovely."

"I'll try my best."

Raelle tapped his forehead with the tip of her finger and said, "Now, I got your flowers and your wish. You need to go over there and play with friends. It's not fun being alone either. Although both of them are a couple of years older than you, it doesn't matter. Make some good friends, okay?"

"Okay. I like them both."

"I can tell," said Raelle.

Justin turned to leave and stopped to ask, "Are you feeling better?"

"I am. Thank you for the flowers."

Justin grinned showing his milk teeth and then ran away.

Raelle watched him leave before her attention fell on the flowers in her hands. She thought of finding a vase for these flowers. It'd be a shame if they withered too early.

"I'm almost jealous."

"What should I do about your jealousy?" asked Raelle without looking at Xiang Wai.

"That's my nephew too. He never gave me flowers or such a sweet smile."

"Kids are very sensitive to others' emotions. They can tell who is good and who is evil."

Xiang Wai's lips twitched, "I'm evil?"

"You're not good either."

"So are you!"

"But I do a good job at hiding my evil side."

"No, you don't," retorted Xiang Wai.

"Oh? Then I must be beautiful."

Xiang Wai gritted her teeth, "You? You really like to say whatever you want, right? But do you have to hit my heart so hard?"

"Is it injured?"

"What?"

"Your fragile heart?"

Xiang Wai said, "If it was so fragile, you wouldn't let me live until now."

"Technically, I didn't do anything. I am just sitting here. Did I shoot the arrow from here? No, came in front of my arrow on your own."

"Wow! I'm speechless."

"No surprise there. You were never good with words anyway."

Xiang Wai sighed, "It's tiring being your sister."

"What if I say the same thing?"

"Huh? How is it tiring with me around? It's not possible. I am so easy to get along with. I'm so cute and so nice."

"So, all the problems lie with me?"

"I didn't say that."

"But you implied that," said Raelle.

"Wait! This is not why I'm here."

"What are you here for then, Major? Why don't you tell me?"

"Oh, it's nothing. I just saw my nephew being all cute and couldn't hold myself back from coming here."

"And being sour."

"Yes," accepted Xiang Wai. "I'm feeling sour. But can you blame me? No, you can't."

"I won't blame you. I don't like blaming people anyway."

"True. You don't like doing a lot of things."

"I don't like talking to you either but here we are."

"If you want me to get lost, just say so, sis."

"I didn't say it. But if you understand it like that, that's entirely up to you."

"Can you share a flower with me?" asked Raelle.

"Why? I need good luck too," replied Xiang Wai.

"You do, don't you?"

"Of course, I do. I am about to propose. I need good luck."

"I don't think so. Yanjun must be more eager to say yes than you think so."

Xiang Wai went silent when she heard that. She didn't know how eager he was but she knew that this sister was stingy. Won't even share one flower with her. Not even one. What a shame!

As she was about to walk away, Raelle held her hand which startled Xiang Wai for a moment. Then a flower was slowly placed in her hand as Raelle said, "Don't say anything and just leave."
