“Catch them! Catch them!”
“This way, please!”
The crowd was in a frantic mood.
Everyone was bumping into everyone, and Feng Wu was almost shoved to the ground. She grabbed Chaoge and jumped onto the roof of a house, where things were quieter.
But the roofs weren’t deserted either.
In fact, to catch the envelopes, many people were climbing up to the roofs as they spoke.
“What’s in the envelopes? Why are they so excited?” Chaoge snapped.
“That Zuo Qingluan just has to let everyone know that she’s back! That’s so pretentious!”
While Chaoge was venting her sarcasm inwardly, a middle-aged woman nearby said, “Kiddo, what are you talking about? Aren’t you excited?”
She was quite lucky. There were already three or four envelopes in her hands.
“There’s everything in these envelopes! Look, this one says 50 copper coins. That’s good.” The woman showed Chaoge the content. “Take it to the shop of the Zuo family on East Avenue, and they’ll cash it out for you.”
“50 copper coins?” Chaoge rolled her eyes. “That’s not very generous.”
The woman didn’t agree. “It’s now my luckiest day. The luckier ones will have vouchers for silver in their envelopes. I hear someone found 100 taels of silver in theirs! I do hope I can find the top prize. It’s supposed to be a house! Here in the imperial capital!”
Chaoge said angrily, “She’s bribing everyone!”
The woman didn’t think much of it. “I wish there were more people like her!”
Chaoge was so angry that she didn’t know what to say.
Meanwhile, up in the air —
Zuo Qingluan was sitting in the phoenix carriage, and next to her was Tongque, her maid.
Tongque held a gilded envelope in her hand, which was none other than the top prize for today.
It was a courtyard worth a small fortune here in the imperial capital.
Tongque was very satisfied with her design of the event. She had sent out word in advance that Miss Qingluan was coming back today and would be giving out gifts. As expected, many people showed up.
Their carriage wasn’t very high up, so Tongque soon saw the people standing on the rooftops.
Although it had been five years —
Tongque immediately recognized Feng Wu and Chaoge.
“Miss Qingluan, look —”
Tongque pointed in the direction of Feng Wu and Chaoge.
Zuo Qingluan had been resting her mind with her eyes closed. She was displeased when Tongque disturbed her, but she still looked in that direction.
From hundreds of meters away, she spotted her archenemy right away.
“Miss Qingluan, that’s Feng Wu, right?” Tongque sounded excited. “She must know that we’re giving out gifts! How hard must her life be? She’s waiting for our handouts!”
The two girls were known as the two genius girls of the imperial capital five years ago.
But now, Zuo Qingluan was high up in the carriage, and Feng Wu was supposed to be a nobody who had lost all her abilities!
