Cheng Mingran frowned as he looked at the place where he bit. What? Shouldn't he have mysophobia? How could he bite it off like that? And it was sweet food, and he never liked sweet food.

But she didn't say it out loud. Anyway, Ji Lingzhou had changed in more than one way in these days.

During the Lantern Festival, the lantern festival is as bright as day, and colorful lanterns dot the night, as if enveloping the entire city in a warm atmosphere.

Ji Lingzhou and Cheng Mingran strolled together in the bustling crowd, enjoying this rare tranquility and warmth.

But Ji Lingzhou seemed to be in high spirits along the way. He took Cheng Mingran to various snack stalls. At each stall, he would gently ask Cheng Mingran if she wanted to try the food there. His eyes were full of doting on Cheng Mingran, as if she was his most precious treasure.

On the other hand, Cheng Mingran... Although Cheng Mingran was surrounded by Ji Lingzhou's tenderness, there was always a hint of restraint and coldness on her face.

"Candied haws, Ranran, do you want to try some?" Ji Lingzhou handed the shiny and tempting candied haws in his hand to Cheng Mingran's mouth.

Cheng Mingran was just about to take the snack handed to her by Ji Lingzhou, but Ji Lingzhou put his hand back instead.

Cheng Mingran: "..." She looked at Ji Lingzhou. Is he teasing her?

Ji Lingzhou couldn't help laughing at her expression, and then he slowly said: "I was afraid of dirtying your hands, so I fed you."

Ah? Cheng Mingran was speechless for a moment.

"What's the matter? You're still not willing? Didn't you feed me just now? Now I'm feeding you, it's just a courtesy, and you're still complaining." Ji Lingzhou is using more and more interjections after his words. Oh my god, where is the image of a king?

But Cheng Mingran didn't want to argue with him about this now. Just let him do whatever he wanted. After all, he was the emperor.

"Try it." Ji Lingzhou moved the candied haws closer to his mouth.

Cheng Mingran was helpless, but the candied haws looked really tempting. So she took a bite of the candied haws from Ji Lingzhou's hand. Actually, it was nothing special. But now... she was eating the candied haws as if she was tasting a strange taste.

Originally she wanted to eat the whole thing, but she didn't bite it off, and the hawthorn was quite big, so she only bit off half of it.

Ji Lingzhou couldn't help laughing again. Cheng Mingran muttered to herself when she heard his voice. Maybe it was because she had been shopping all day, so she felt much more relaxed. When she heard the voice, she looked at Ji Lingzhou with a resentful look in her eyes.

Ji Lingzhou touched his nose unnaturally: "Why are you looking at me like that? Are you angry? I was just joking."

"Your Majesty is obviously making fun of me. Is this a joke?" Cheng Mingran smiled with a fake smile.

"What are you teasing? How dare I make fun of you? Now you are more powerful than me." Ji Lingzhou replied quickly, looking as if he was really afraid that Cheng Mingran would be angry.

However, it seems that the two of them get along much better and more naturally than before.

"I just can't eat another bite. It's not like anything else is wrong. What's so funny? Why is your Majesty laughing?" Cheng Mingran seemed to be getting bolder and bolder now, perhaps because he was indulged.

Ji Lingzhou started laughing again when he heard this: "I know, but isn't this funny? Because you are cute and I am fascinated by you. I am very happy just looking at you." He could speak whatever he wanted now.

Cheng Mingran: "..." She blushed for no apparent reason. She was about to say something, but now she suddenly couldn't say it.

Ji Lingzhou seized this opportunity and deliberately moved closer. Cheng Mingran was not paying attention at the moment and was frightened by Ji Lingzhou. She subconsciously stepped back.

Unexpectedly, a stone appeared on the ground. She stepped on it and almost lost her balance. Fortunately, Ji Lingzhou was quick to grab her waist.

"Be careful, why are you so excited? Can't you listen to sweet words? You almost fell down after hearing what I said. It seems you are very happy." Ji Lingzhou raised his eyebrows. His unruly look made people feel that he deserved a beating.

Cheng Mingran: "..."

But having said that, she couldn't say anything to refute for a moment. The light from the lantern festival shone through the gauze curtains onto her fair face, adding a bit of gentleness to her.

Ji Lingzhou's witty remarks just now were like a spring breeze, gently brushing past her ears and causing ripples in her originally calm heart.

Ji Lingzhou's eyes were filled with a hint of teasing. He leaned over slightly, approached Cheng Mingran, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Ranran is so shy too? I didn't understand her before, but now I really think she's cute, huh? Why do I feel my heart beat faster when I look at her? Ranran has taken over my heart."

Cheng Mingran's cheeks instantly turned red, like a ripe apple, and her heartbeat accelerated, as if it was about to jump out of her chest. She hurriedly avoided Ji Lingzhou's sight, her hands tightly clasped together, and she looked at a loss.

For a moment, Cheng Mingran opened her lips slightly, but could not speak. Her heart was filled with panic and confusion. Of course, she must have been a little shy, after all, she had never heard such words before.

Just hearing those words was like being struck by Ji Lingzhou's words. She lowered her head, not daring to look at him again, but the shy and sweet feeling slowly spread in her heart like honey...

It’s just a pity that she doesn’t seem to fully understand what she means now. Maybe even she herself doesn’t understand what’s in her mind?

"Your Majesty..." She was indeed a little overwhelmed, so she reached out and gently pushed Ji Lingzhou's chest.

But Ji Lingzhou held her hand instead, and... taking advantage of her unpreparedness, he leaned over and kissed Cheng Mingran on her lips.

Cheng Mingran: “???!!!”

He He……

However, this time Ji Lingzhou only tried it briefly and did not go deeper.

After he let go, Cheng Mingran covered her lips in disbelief. She didn't know how many times this had happened today. Why was he so "dissolute"?

Is this still the original him? Ji Lingzhou is now similar to that...oh, the people in Tingzhuyuan.

As for why it was Tingzhuyuan... because that was where countless handsome men gathered, and they were "handsome men" who would serve people...
