After traveling through time, I became the aunt of the loyal dog emperor

The kite flies freely in the sky with the help of the wind and the string, but once the string breaks, it will fall in an instant. If you are unlucky, no matter how beautiful the kite is, it will fall into the mud and cannot be found.

Liu Qingyu's kite was lucky. Although it also experienced the fate of breaking the string, Gao Rulan was persistent in pursuing it. She looked in the direction where the kite fell, searching very carefully, fearing that she would miss a place. At this time, the complicated hem of her skirt became an obstacle. She simply ignored the rules and did not pay attention to her image. She lifted the hem of her skirt with one hand and walked quickly. But the more she did this, the more innocent and natural she seemed.

As she was bending over to look for someone, she heard footsteps approaching from a distance. Gao Rulan smiled as she realized someone was coming. She straightened up and listened carefully, then lifted her skirt to find someone to help.

Following the faint sound, Gao Rulan walked forward quickly, but the closer she got, the farther away the sound became. In this situation, Gao Rulan became more and more anxious, and simply jogged. Fortunately, she was lucky, and saw a figure in the distance after turning a corner. He was tall and straight and somewhat familiar. Now there was no time to think about these things, because Gao Rulan's chest was obviously heaving due to the exercise just now, and her originally neat hair was slightly loose. Fine sweat oozed from her forehead - but it exuded a faint fragrance.

She walked forward in such a clever manner and called out in a sweet and delicate voice, "Brother, brother."

The man turned his head and looked over when he heard the noise. Gao Rulan was immediately surprised when she saw the face in front of her. She lifted her skirt and jumped towards him like a smart little deer. The hair behind her ears swayed in the sunshine and breeze. She ran and shouted excitedly: "Brother, Brother Huaichu."

Ziheng's surprise flashed across his face, and he stopped to look at the person in front of him, thinking about where he had seen her before. Huaichu - not many people knew his name, Pei Huaichu, so it was easy to recognize him.

Soon, Gao Rulan appeared in front of Ziheng. Her bright eyes stared at the man in front of her with joy. Her cheeks were red as if she had just applied blush, making her look even more lively and lovely.

Before Ziheng could speak, Gao Rulan took the initiative to greet him and expressed her joy: "Brother Huaichu, is it really you? I thought I had seen you wrong just now, but since I saw Brother Huaichu last time, there is no way I could have recognized the wrong person. Now I see that it is indeed Brother Huaichu. Brother Huaichu, why are you here?"

Ziheng looked at the person standing in front of him and felt that she looked familiar, but he couldn't remember who she was. So before he could speak, Gao Rulan smiled innocently and added, "But the beautiful sister is Princess Le Yan who lives here, and brother Huaichu is the beautiful sister's brother. Naturally, he has a noble status, so it is normal for him to appear in the palace."

After getting her hint, Ziheng remembered that he and Wan Ning had met this person outside the palace before. At that time, they seemed to have a good relationship, so he must be Wan Ning's friend. Since he was her friend, Ziheng softened his attitude. As the saying goes, you should give some face to the Buddha instead of the monk.

So Ziheng kept a proper distance, nodded and brushed off the topic. He said, "Yes, but why are you here, Miss?"

"Me?" Gao Rulan responded with a smile, her eyes curved like a pair of crescent moons, playful and cute. She continued, "I'm here to look for a kite. We were flying kites in the garden just now, and my sister's kite flew the highest and farthest, but unfortunately the string broke, and now I don't know where it flew to. This is a kite made by my sister herself, and even the painting on it was painted by her herself. This is her favorite thing. I couldn't bear to see my sister sad, so I came to look for her."

"Sister?" Ziheng was nervous. Gao Rulan did not clearly say who the sister she was talking about was. It just so happened that she had been calling Wan Ningwei sister, so Ziheng misunderstood. He immediately thought that the kite belonged to Wan Ning, that it was made by her own hands and was her favorite thing. So his attitude naturally softened.

At this time, Gao Rulan continued to suggest: "It is really difficult for me to find it by myself. It would be great if Brother Huaichu could help me. I am sure I can find it. Brother Huaichu, can you help me?"

"Do you know the direction the kite fell?" Ziheng asked.

As soon as these words came out, Gao Rulan keenly noticed Ziheng's attitude, and immediately jumped up happily, enthusiastically hugged Ziheng's arm and pulled him towards the other end of the garden. She cleverly thanked him: "Thank you, Brother Huaichu, thank you, Brother Huaichu, with your help, we will definitely find it."

As she spoke, Gao Rulan raised her foot and was about to walk out. As soon as she took a step, she realized that Ziheng had not followed her. She turned her head in surprise to see what happened, and saw Ziheng standing there. He pulled his arm out of Gao Rulan's arms with a little force, and said coldly, "Miss, lead the way."

Gao Rulan had a very good temper. She did not change at all because of the cold reception. Instead, she smiled even sweeter. She urged coquettishly, "Okay, Brother Huaichu, please come this way. My kite is easy to recognize and very beautiful. It would be a pity if it was lost. Brother Huaichu must work hard."

So during this journey to find the kite, Gao Rulan was in a very good mood and kept circling around Ziheng, staring at him from time to time. Looking at Ziheng, he was looking for it seriously, and he was looking forward to the moment when he found Wan Ning's lost kite and gave it to her personally. She would definitely be very happy at that time, and more importantly, spring had arrived and everything was reviving, and Ziheng was also looking forward to flying a kite with Wan Ning.

With this expectation, even if Gao Rulan was a little rude and offensive, Ziheng just ignored it. Rulan "pestered" Ziheng and searched almost everywhere in the garden. Just when she was about to give up, Ziheng suddenly looked back and found the lonely kite on the treetops - it was quietly and lonely stuck in the middle of the treetops.

Gao Rulan had been watching Ziheng the whole time, so she followed his gaze and spotted the kite. She rushed to the tree first, shouting excitedly, "Found it, found it, Brother Huaichu, you are amazing. If it weren't for the kite today, I'm afraid I would never find it again."

After that, Gao Rulan raised her hand and tried to reach the kite on the treetop. The wide sleeves slid down her arms, revealing her delicate white skin. With the innocent expression on her face, it was a lively and vivid scene. But the kite was stuck too high, and even if she jumped, she was still far from reaching it.

Ziheng couldn't bear to watch it, so he walked up behind her and easily took down the kite. However, he didn't plan to return the kite to her after taking it down. He held it in his hand and observed it carefully, but the handwriting and painting style on the kite didn't look like Wan Ning's at all, and his interest was lost.

"Brother Huaichu, can you return the kite to me?"

"Whose kite is this?"
