Chapter 1698: The Magical Blueprints 2

~8 min read 1,428 words

"Who gave this to you?" she asked the triplets, pointing at the blueprints.

Back when Wan'er was pregnant, she had been abducted by Ji Yingjie to the Underground Palace; she still felt lingering fear whenever she recalled that period of her life.

Although everyone's relationship had reconciled later on, Wan'er still tried her best to avoid letting the triplets have contact with her aunt, Ji Yingjie.

She even avoided mentioning those days at all in front of them.

But despite this, the triplets' personalities were becoming more and more like the Ji Family!

When the triplets were small, Ji Yingjie often coveted them, trying every possible way to get them over to her side, even if it was just one of them.

Ji Yingjie tried many times, but without success, so she gradually gave up on the idea.

Later on, when Ji Yingjie had a daughter of her own, she completely abandoned the thought.

But regardless, Wan'er never let the triplets have any individual contact with Ji Yingjie; they weren't even close, so it was truly miraculous that the blueprints the triplets drew were so similar to the Underground Palace.

She felt that the blueprints must have been given to the triplets by someone else; even if it wasn't Ji Yingjie, it could have been Nianyin.

Seeing their mother ask this, the triplets immediately felt as if they had suffered a great insult and retorted at once.

Youyou: "You actually suspect us of plagiarism?"

Taotao: "No one gave us the blueprints; the three of us drew these."

Mengmeng: "Since we were little, the three of us have always had the same strange dream. In the dream, there is a palace just like this, and we run and play inside it."

As soon as she finished speaking, Youyou and Taotao glared at her, blaming her for being a blabbermouth.

The three had once discussed that they would never tell anyone about this dream, not even their parents; it was to be a secret between the three of them, kept in their hearts forever.

But Mengmeng did not keep her promise; she said it, and in front of so many people, too.

Upon hearing about that dream, Wan'er's willpower finally collapsed, and she fainted.

Everyone rushed to provide first aid; Jian Yining held his wife and pressed his thumb hard into the philtrum position. Wan'er woke up, and seeing the triplets all before her, she used a weak voice to order them to immediately fill in the construction work they had dug, tear up the blueprints, and promise never to continue again.

The triplets didn't want to agree, so they spoke vaguely, saying they should hurry back and that they would talk about future matters later.

They were trying to muddle through.

Although Wan'er was not as clever as Shi Youxuan, she would not be easily fooled by a few children, especially her own three children.

"No, do it now, otherwise I am not your mother, and from now on you can act as if I never gave birth to you."

She wasn't bluffing; she was being serious.

The triplets had no choice. The blueprints were easy to handle; there was more than just this one, and if they tore them up, there were backups—they could have as many as they wanted.

But the construction work underground was the result of a whole week of their hard work; if they filled it in, all their effort and toil would be in vain.

If they didn't follow her orders, they wouldn't be able to get past their mother.

Just as they were caught in a dilemma, several beams of light shone from afar—the light of high-powered flashlights. At the same time, someone shouted at them: "Who's there? What are you doing? Nobody move!"

Agricultural University Security Office.

The Jiang University Security Office and the school and department leaders had all arrived.

After negotiations, they were taken back to Jiang University.

The matter had blown up; the triplets' disciplinary warning was a certainty and could not be avoided. A warning was the light version; if this matter was handled poorly, they could be expelled.

The school leaders were negotiating with the leaders of the Agricultural University, and there was no result yet; the specific handling would have to wait until the leaders returned from their meeting.

Wan'er kept wiping away tears; her tears had not stopped once.

She said to the triplets: "You few are determined to anger me to death. It is truly a miracle I have lived this long. If the school doesn't want you this time, I don't want you either. From now on, go wherever you want and do whatever you want; I can't handle this stress anymore."

The triplets had heard such words countless times since they were small.

They didn't pay much attention to it; their mother wouldn't abandon them, but she was truly angry now, so they just had to stay silent—anything they said now would be wrong.

Thus, the three of them stood before their mother with lowered heads and submissive expressions, standing straight and not saying a word.

Jian Yining wanted to comfort his wife, but he didn't know how to start, so he simply didn't speak either.

Everyone was silent; only Wan'er kept muttering, complaining about how she had given birth to such three troublemakers.

They were clearly girls, yet they were a hundred times more worrying than boys!

Finally, the school leaders returned, and their first sentence upon seeing them was unexpected to everyone.

The department leader said: "Did you draw the blueprints yourselves? Where did you get the inspiration?"

The three looked at each other and decided to tell the truth; they had already said it anyway, so one more time wouldn't hurt.

Youyou answered on behalf of the triplets: "The blueprints were drawn by us. The three of us have always had the same dream since we were little, dreaming of running and playing in a palace like this, and we got the inspiration from the dream."

The leader said: "Are you related to the Ji Family? I mean Ji Nianyin, the owner of the Underground Palace in the Swamp."

Back then, in order to take revenge on the Zhu Family and also to cover her tracks, Ji Yingjie opened up the upper level of the Underground Palace and even had a statue of Zhu Yiwen carved to kneel in front of the entrance.

The Underground Palace became a tourist attraction, and the magnificent architecture and peculiar design inside also shocked architects all over the world.

As professors of the Architecture Department at Jiang University, a top institution in Jiangzhou, they had also been to see it, and more than once.

Today, before going to the Agricultural University Security Office to pick up the people, the leader was still very angry and wanted to severely punish these three students; it was too outrageous, and they were far too bold.

But after inadvertently seeing that blueprint at the Agricultural University Security Office, the leader immediately changed his mind.

One must know that the attraction had been closed for ten years and photography was not allowed; no one could get in now. Even if the three had seen it when they were small, it was remarkable that they could still remember it after such a long time.

If they hadn't seen it and it was just their own idea, that was even more remarkable!

Therefore, the department leader's attention and focus immediately shifted; now it was all on the blueprints.

Taotao answered: "I have an aunt named Ji Nianyin; whether that is the person you are talking about, we don't know."

They didn't know, but Wan'er knew very well.

She did not deny it. After she acknowledged it, the department leader was clearly somewhat excited; he told the triplets to go back to class, without mentioning a warning, let alone expulsion!

Wan'er and Jian Yining were uneasy and asked how the school intended to punish the three of them.

The department leader said: "Have them write a self-criticism, one each. In the future, if they have any ideas, they can completely carry them out at their own school; we will provide the environment. There is absolutely no need to go to other schools."

Wan'er:...

Jian Yining:......

The couple was dumbfounded; they had not expected that the triplets would cause such a huge incident, only for it to be so lightly brushed aside and forgotten.
