Chapter 48 - 48 I Like My Ninth Imperial Uncle

48 I Like My Ninth Imperial Uncle

“Because the person I really like is my Ninth Imperial Uncle,” Shen Yaowei said confidently. Her eyes lit up when she mentioned Huo Junhan. “My Ninth Imperial Uncle is better-looking than Huo Zhao. I like him very much. I’m going to marry him in the future!”

In her previous life, she and Huo Junhan were considered married, but they did not have the time to be husband and wife.

In this life, no matter what, she had to make up for this regret.

“Ninth Imperial Uncle? Huo Junhan?” Shen Yuyan suddenly stood up from his chair, his phoenix eyes wide. “Yaoyao, are you joking with Third Brother?”

For the first time in his life, he was so shocked.

Shen Liu’an was also shocked and almost choked on his own saliva. “Cough, cough, cough… Yaoyao, are you serious?”

Shen Yaowei smiled brightly and nodded firmly. “Yes, Yaoyao has thought it through. I’ll marry no one but my Ninth Imperial Uncle in this life!”

This was the first time Shen Yuyan had seen Shen Yaowei smile so brightly. It was as if stars had been crushed in her eyes, making them look indescribably dazzling.

His sister did not seem to have smiled like this when she mentioned Huo Zhao in the past.

For a moment, Shen Yuyan did not know what to say and fell silent.

Shen Liu’an did not know what to say either. Today, he had seen how concerned Yaoyao was about Huo Junhan.

Previously, when Huo Zhao was sick, Yaoyao had only personally sent over some natural treasures, but she had never personally taken care of him.

Hence, the father and son exchanged speechless glances.

The two of them had to talk about this in private.

“Yaoyao, it’s getting late. Let’s eat something first. Go and rest,” Shen Liu’an said to Shen Yaowei as he cleared his throat.

Shen Yaowei touched her empty stomach and nodded.

…

After dinner, after Shen Yaowei took a shower, she dismissed Zi Yun and returned to her room.

She was alone in the large room.

Shen Yaowei sat cross-legged on the bed and placed her hands on her knees before closing her eyes.

She silently chanted the mental cultivation technique and absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

In an instant, countless amounts of spiritual energy invisible to the naked eye gathered from all directions and entered Shen Yaowei’s body.

Feeling the warm spiritual energy enter her body, Shen Yaowei gradually relaxed and entered a “meditation” state.

She didn’t notice that as she absorbed more spiritual energy, a touch of emerald green emerged from the top of her head.

The green, three-leaf plant slowly emerged from the top of Shen Yaowei’s head. After stretching lazily, it also spread its leaves and absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Time passed unknowingly, and it was not until dawn that Shen Yaowei slowly opened her eyes.

The meridians in her body seemed to have been refreshed, and her body was indescribably relaxed and comfortable.

Feeling that something was rubbing against her head, Shen Yaowei subconsciously raised her hand to touch it.

This casual touch gave her a big shock.

There was actually something above her head!

She quickly took out a handheld mirror from the bed cabinet, and aimed it at the top of her head.

“What the hell is this?”

She saw that in the center of her head, a plant that resembled a morning glory had actually grown to about the size of her pinky.

“Bang, bang, bang…”

And the morning glory seemed to understand her. It was instantly so angry that it made a gesture with its two branches and leaves, its petals opening and closing as it spoke.

This was the first time Shen Yaowei had seen such a magical scene. She reached out to touch the little morning glory above her head again.

The little morning glory seemed to not want her to touch it and used its leaves to hit her hand.

However, its branches and leaves were too small, and it only tickled Shen Yaowei’s hand.

Unable to accept that such a strange thing had grown on her head, she grabbed the little morning glory and pulled hard.
