15 Siblings Time

Ning Su Cai walked towards the Bamboo Pavilion and saw Zhu Xiao Qian and Zhu Xiao Wan there. They were just sitting, drinking tea, eating snacks, and appreciating the bamboo forest. It was the thirtieth something time they'd done this!

"Don't you guys have anything else to do except this?" Ning Su Cai sighed as he sat on a stone bench.

"Where?" Zhu Xiao Qian asked.

"Uh..." He thought for a while, "A theatre, you two can go listen to storytellers or something."

"I heard there is an opera today! If you're going, bring me with you!" Ning Rou Li ran into the pavilion.

Facing Ning Rou Li, the one who responded was Zhu Xiao Wan. "An opera?"

"How about us siblings go out and spend some time together?" Ning Rou Li suggested with an expectant expression.

"...Ok." The Zhu siblings nodded.

"Let me call Heng'er!" She quickly took off.

"This girl..." Ning Su Cai smiled helplessly.

Zhu Xiao Qian returned to appreciate the bamboo forest. "Sometimes, my sister looks more mature than her."

Ning Su Cai's mouth twitched while Zhu Xiao Wan pursed her lips.

She was not thirteen, and when she died, she was about to be twenty four. But she was not like that when she was fifteen previously.

"Heng'er, we stopped five times for you already." Ning Su Cai frowned, his lips jerked to one side.

Ning Rou Li joked, "Just let him eat up the city and then we'll go home."

"My stomach can't fit that much," Ning Hai Heng spoke slowly; he even yawned in between.

They went to the theatre, and Zhu Xiao Wan spotted a familiar person. She said, "You guys go in first."

"What's wrong?" Zhu Xiao Qian asked.

"It's nothing," she replied. "Just someone I know."

Tang Rue was walking to her carriage from the theatre. Suddenly, she found strands of hair that were silver sweeping pass her. Tang Rue froze, unwilling to believe what she just saw.

Ning Xiao Wan should be dead that arrogant guy had killed her! She must be hallucinating.

-----

"You're back." Ning Rou Li's face was filled with excitement and thrills.

"Hmm." Zhu Xiao Wan then asked, "What's the opera about?"

"A girl that doesn't know who she is," Ning Hai Heng said, "Later, a god saves her and takes her as his concubine."

"He doesn't have any other woman though!" Ning Rou Li rebuked.

God saving an inferior little girl? How amusing, god had never existed. Even if god or gods existed, she doubted that they were the good and benevolent gods that everyone believed in. If god really existed, then the god that Huang Xun Wan believed would still be the god that she, Zhu Xiao Wan, believed.

The god that created human to be his toys. Toys to cease him from boredom.

"What are you standing there for?" Ning Rou Li pulled her, "Come on, sit down and watch it with us!"

Zhu Xiao Wan didn't mind being pulled, she smiled, "It has not start yet."

'Ah...it is kind of amusing to be with them.'
