Finally, Jiang Xi’s small corner attracted the attention of others. There was no way he could not attract attention. People were busy catching fish in the quagmire. All the fish were swimming in Jiang Xi’s direction, and he would be noticed at a glance.

“That’s strange. Let’s go and see who that person is.” In the stands, Crown Prince Dong Sheng gave an order to the people behind him. Soon, someone went down to inquire.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Zhao Panpan pursed her lips and frowned, “Could it be that someone knew that the crown prince had come and deliberately used some method to attract your attention?” When she said this, it was as natural as when she first entered the palace a few years ago and called herself ‘Xixi’ in front of the crown prince.

Crown Prince Dong Sheng was stunned for a moment. Someone happened to come over and report, “Master, it’s the Zhao family’s Eldest Young Master. The two standing on the shore are the Zhao family’s Eldest Miss, Zhao Yingying, and Miss Jiang Xi.

Crown Prince Dong Sheng heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this. In fact, he had come to Happy Town for a secret matter and also to search for memories of the past with Xixi. However, he did not know why he felt uncomfortable today. It was as if his entire body was not right.

Zhao Panpan’s shoulders trembled slightly, “Miss Jiang Xi and my Big Brother Zhao Ruifeng are really fated. Look, there are so many Lucky Fishes. Don’t tell me all the good fortune in the world has gathered here?” She covered her mouth and chuckled. She thought that she could disgust Zhao Ruifeng by putting Jiang Xi and Zhao Ruifeng, two unlucky people whose engagement had been broken off many times, together. However, she had no idea that her casual sarcastic remark was actually the truth!

Crown Prince Dong Sheng felt slightly uncomfortable, but he had always spoiled Zhao Panpan and did not want to disappoint her. He probed, “Although General Zhao Ruifeng’s birth characters are very strong, Miss Jiang Xi is not weak either. I just don’t know if she has been engaged. It seems that Miss Jiang Xi’s family background is ordinary. I’m afraid that it won’t be good for General Zhao if the two of them get married.” The more the crown prince spoke, the more annoyed he became. What was wrong? Why did he feel so uncomfortable?

The smile on Zhao Panpan’s face deepened and her gaze quickly swept across the crown prince’s face, “Don’t worry about this. When we return to Jing City, I, Xixi, will naturally have a way. Zhao Ruifeng is my big brother, so I can’t just watch him grow old alone, right?” Zhao Panpan instantly pulled Crown Prince Dong Sheng back from his thoughts. He had not heard Zhao Panpan call herself by this nickname in a long time.

“You’re still so kind. When I raised the two parrots, one was a palm-headed parrot, and the other was a purple-blue parrot. You said that they were cold outside and that I didn’t raise them well. You wanted to take them back to the fire to warm them up. Then, you deceived me and took them away. You didn’t return them to me after so many years.” Crown Prince Dong Sheng said casually.

Zhao Panpan’s hands and feet froze. She did not know about this.

“It’s good. The two parrots made my heart ache. Now, they are recuperating in the residence and are very clever. When we return to the capital, I will bring you to see them. It’s just that so many years have passed and they are not quite the same as before.” As Zhao Panpan spoke, she made up her mind to get someone to find a pair of parrots to replace her.

When Crown Prince Dong Sheng heard Zhao Panpan’s words, he felt more at ease, “Then remember to bring me my gyrfalcon.” He did not know why, but he did not want to mention the past to Zhao Panpan many times. However, he also hoped that Zhao Panpan would mention it personally.

Zhao Panpan, “…” What did these two people take away?!

As for Jiang Xi, if you were to ask her about parrots, she would probably trick them and roast them. She had even made a shuttlecock with her feathers and played with it for several years. It was still hanging at the door of the Jiang family’s residence.

At this time, Jiang Xi was squatting on the shore. Her mind was full of braised carp, sweet and sour carp, and milky white and delicious carp soup. She had eaten a lot of good things in her previous life, but the original owner of the body only had delicious meat once when she was two or three years old. The meat was a little old, but the bones still tasted good.

“Have you ever eaten a parrot? It tasted great when roasted. It’s much more delicious than fish, but there’s one feather that’s not pretty, so I made a shuttlecock and played with it. That shuttlecock is black and there’s a ball of red in the middle, so it’s really pretty.” Jiang Xi turned around and said to Zhao Yingying.

Zhao Yingying thought for a moment. Black fur? Red fur? Eat? Roast and eat? Zhao Yingying’s eyes widened!

“You’re not talking about the palm parrots, are you? I’ve never eaten it before, and I can’t afford it. My grandfather raised a pair of them, and they’re very precious. He doesn’t even let us touch them.” Zhao Yingying looked at Jiang Xi with even more admiration.
