After being reborn, all I want to do is run away.

Chapter 533 The Man Searching for His Son

The sun was shining brightly, and a shower of petals filled the sky.

Countless petals of illusory light, fueled by vital energy, drifted down from the tops of the towering buildings on both sides of the street, exuding a refreshing fragrance, landing on the hair and shoulders of pedestrians, and covering both sides of the riverbank.

Bai Lu stood at the bow of the Drunken Immortal Boat, watching one flower boat after another drift by on the Jade Belt River, heading towards Flower Goddess Mountain.

The flower palanquins carrying the top courtesans of each flower boat on the bow are all extremely luxurious and ingenious, highlighting the characteristics of the flower boats.

On the imperial carriage, the courtesans in their finest attire were the absolute stars.

They stood atop the floats in their finest attire, their makeup exquisite, their costumes magnificent. Some were ethereal and aloof, others alluring and captivating, and still others elegant and noble, each displaying their unique charm.

She would occasionally smile and wave to the crowds on both sides of the shore, her eyes captivating all who beheld her.

The streets were packed with people, shoulder to shoulder.

The monks were in high spirits, and cheers and exclamations rose and fell.

The light from countless jade slips flashed continuously, attempting to capture this breathtaking beauty.

The pavilions and terraces on both sides of the street were packed with people, and countless more people poured into the streets.

Cheers, screams, and exclamations surged like a tsunami, creating a mesmerizing carnival atmosphere.

"Where's Guanbi? I haven't seen her."

"And Shen Xu? I heard from Song Han that he was with Miss Li. I went to look for him yesterday, but there was no one at Tingtao Residence." Yuan Wuwei tossed a green fruit to Bailu.

Bai Lu let the fruit fly past her and fall into the water.

“I also want to know where he went.” Bai Lu placed her hand on the railing, without turning to look at Yuan Wuwei.

"Such a lack of respect, no wonder you're Miss Bai."

"Why are you so unhappy? Did Shen Xu make you angry again?" Yuan Wuwei walked straight to Bai Lu's side and started munching on fruit.

"That guy is great in every way, except he's too promiscuous and very popular with girls."

Although I didn't spend much time with him, I could tell that he didn't really want to hurt anyone who liked him.

What a gentle yet despicable bastard!

"You know what he's going to do, don't you!"

Yuan Wuwei looked bewildered, then put down the fruit he was about to finish eating. "What do I know? I only saw him once, the day before yesterday, after the sword selection!"

"You're really good at pretending. Aren't you all in cahoots?" Bai Lu sneered.

"Well... we are indeed in cahoots, but I really don't know what he's up to!"

I'm so curious about what he's up to! I'm so bored I could burst. Yuan Wuwei felt that he was innocent.

"Do you really think I don't know what you're up to?!"

"Huh? You know that, why are you asking me?" Yuan Wuwei looked completely bewildered.

"Miss Bai, there is a man named Liang Yu outside who wants to pay you a visit."

He said that a man named Shen Xu had recommended him, and wondered if Miss Bai would be willing to see him. At this moment, a servant came to Bai Lu's side and said respectfully.

Bai Lu and Yuan Wuwei's expressions changed slightly.

"Bring him here!" Bai Lu immediately ordered.

Before long, a waiter brought a middle-aged man who looked travel-worn and haggard to their side.

"My name is Liang Yu. I greet Miss Bai." Liang Yu bowed respectfully.

"No need for formalities. You said Shen Xu sent you to find me. What's the matter?" Bai Lu asked impatiently.

"I heard from Brother Shen that Miss Bai is an astrologer, and I need your help with something, so I begged Brother Shen to reveal Miss Bai's whereabouts."

"If Miss Bai is willing to help me, I can offer my entire fortune as a reward!"

Liang Yu took a deep breath. He knew that dealing with such important figures could be disastrous; one wrong move and he could be utterly destroyed.

But he simply couldn't give up the hope that was so close at hand!

Even if it means being shattered to pieces, he will give it a try!

"Stargazer!" Yuan Wuwei's expression turned serious for the first time when he looked at Bai Lu.

"Who does he think he is! Just because he asked me to help you, does he think I have to help him? Does he have no shame!" Bai Lu's anger burned fiercely.

Sensing Bai Lu's attitude, Liang Yu knelt directly in front of her. "Miss Bai, I know that I only have this one chance in my life to meet someone like you, and this is my only chance."

If you don't help me, I might never find my daughter.

Looking at the kneeling middle-aged man, Yuan Wuwei advised, "Bai Lu, you're just looking for someone."

If Shen Xu knew you didn't help him, he probably wouldn't have a very good opinion of you.

"Who cares about his opinion? I have nothing to do with him!"

"Get up! Miss Bai has already agreed to your request. Do you have any of the items your daughter left behind?" Yuan Wuwei asked.

Upon hearing this, Liang Yu looked at Bai Lu and, seeing that she did not object, the weight that had been hanging over his heart quietly lifted.

He stood up and asked, "I wonder what you two know about the previous winner of the Hundred Flowers Award?"

"The Hundred Flowers Maiden who is pregnant at the Floating Life Pavilion?" Yuan Wuwei asked.

“That’s right, she is my wife!” Liang Yu’s eyes were filled with sadness.

"Hmm?" Yuan Wuwei immediately became interested.

"Uncle, you're amazing! But how can you be so sure your daughter is still alive?"

"Excuse my bluntness, but logically speaking, with such a scandal, they, mother and daughter, should have had a very hard time surviving." Yuan Wuwei looked at Liang Yu with a slightly amused gaze.

“Someone told me that Hundred Flowers City will not abandon any of the Hundred Flowers Maidens, and that the children are innocent and she will protect them.” Liang Yu’s eyes were full of conviction.

“You actually know where your daughter is,” Bai Lu suddenly said.

“But I’m not sure. I only have one chance. I can’t gamble. So I hope Miss Bai can help me this once.”

"What do you plan to do if she's really there?"

Liang Yu clenched his fists, then looked up at Bai Lu with a determined gaze, "No matter what, I have to see her."

Bai Lu looked at Liang Yu and then asked, "What else did Shen Xu say to you?"

Liang Yu shook his head. "Brother Shen came to Fusheng Pavilion to see me last night, but I wasn't there. My nephew received him."

However, he took out the Soul-Sealing Amber that I had traded with Senior Guo to inquire about its origin.

"Oh? The person you're talking about is Senior Guo." Bai Lu's eyes flickered.

"Yes! Senior Guo also suppressed what happened back then."

“Very good! Come with me to Guiyun Pavilion, I will help you find your daughter.” Bai Lu’s gaze grew increasingly deep.

"what about me?"

Yuan Wuwei felt completely confused. He and Bai Lu had come to Hundred Flowers City together, so why did he feel like a caveman?

"Look at your flower boat!"

"I'm already tired of seeing this. Look, Guanbi isn't even by your side. What do you think about me being your henchman?"

"No need. You wait here for Guanbi. If she comes back, tell her to go to Guiyun Pavilion to find me."

"Alright!" Yuan Wuwei sighed softly.
