"grown ups?"

Ji Chutang asked tentatively and then walked towards the figure.

The figure didn't move, but spoke: "Stand there."

Ji Chutang stopped in astonishment.

Then she saw the man walking out from the shadows and walking towards her step by step.

Only when I got closer could I see that it was Fu Ci.

As he gradually approached, Ji Chutang felt that every step he took hit her heart.

My heartbeat quickened involuntarily.

As he got closer, Fu Ci didn't ask her why she came back so late, nor did he look angry.

Instead, he said very gently: "Did you have fun today?"

Ji Chutang nodded blankly, not knowing what Fu Ci was planning.

Walk up to her, hold her hand, and walk back.

Ji Chutang was anxious, afraid of being seen by others, and tried to break free, but unexpectedly Fu Ci held on even tighter, holding on tightly, not letting Ji Chutang move away.

Ji Chutang had no choice but to pray that he would not meet anyone on the road.

As they walked, Fu Ci suddenly said, "I will fulfill your wish."

Then he stopped talking. Ji Chutang was shocked and wondered if he had heard her conversation with Fu Yan.

But when she saw that he didn't look angry, she became confused again.

Then Fu Ci said, "How about taking you to the temple fair tomorrow?"

Ji Chutang felt even more strange. What was wrong with this person? Did he take the wrong medicine?

Ji Chutang was stunned for a long while, without answering, just staring at Fu Ci.

Fu Ci's expression became a little unnatural.

Seeing that they had reached Yunxiangyuan, he let go of her hand and urged her to go back and rest quickly.

Ji Chutang took two steps at a time and returned to Yunxiang Courtyard, as if the person behind him was some kind of monster.

She didn't want to care whether Fu Ci was crazy or not, but Ji Chutang was still very happy to go out and play.

No one came to climb into bed that night.

Ji Chutang slept very soundly.

On the second day, Ji Chutang happily dressed up and waited for Fu Ci to take her to the temple fair.

At noon, the streets were bustling with people, many of whom were preparing to visit the temple fair.

Ji Chutang was waiting for Fu Ci anxiously.

This guy hadn't sent any news for a long time, which made Ji Chutang wonder if he was playing a trick on her.

In Yunxiang Courtyard, Ji Chutang waited and waited, but no maid came to inform her.

She was so angry that she sat in front of the dressing table and sulked.

Her red lips pursed up, and the expression on her face could not hide her anger. "I'm so angry, so angry, you bastard, you think it's fun to lie to me!"

When I raised my eyes, I caught a glimpse of a tall figure in the mirror.

Ji Chutang turned around in surprise and saw Fu Ci, who was looking at her and said, "Who is the liar?"

"It's me, it's me, it's all me." Ji Chutang quickly put his arms around himself.

Fu Ci saw her looking at her with shining eyes and smiled helplessly: "Isn't he just a little liar?"

Ji Chutang smiled awkwardly, and then said confidently: "Who asked you to come so late? I didn't mean for you to hear it."

Fu Ci felt like he was about to laugh out of anger.

Yes, I didn’t mean for him to hear it. I was just saying bad things about him behind his back and he accidentally heard it.

Knowing what Fu Ci was thinking, Ji Chutang didn't say anything, but just curled her lips slightly. She was not wrong.

Fu Ci couldn't afford to argue with her. If he did, he would shorten his life by ten years.

It was hard to clean up.

The two of them went out from the side door of the Fu Mansion and got on a carriage, which drove all the way to Yun'an Street.

When we arrived at the place, there were more than hundreds of taverns and restaurants, and there were all kinds of people coming to the street to meet people, men and women, young and old, young masters, rich farmers and the elderly.

The air was filled with the aroma of delicious food, the sound of gongs and drums could be heard, and the bustling crowds were moving excitedly among the various stalls.

There were so many people at the temple fair that the carriage could hardly move forward. Fu Ci helped Ji Chutang get off the carriage, and the coachman parked the carriage far away.

Ji Chutang traveled as usual, wearing a veil to block the prying eyes.

However, Ji Chutang's graceful figure, slender waist, and delicate and white hands still attracted many people's attention.

Fu Ci felt a little regretful about bringing her to this crowded temple fair, but thinking of Ji Chutang's excited look, he held back.

He just held her hand and looked at her more closely.

The temple fair was very lively, and Ji Chutang was like a butterfly, taking a look at various stalls.

If you like something, you will buy it regardless of whether it is useful or not.

Fu Ci followed her, but it was hard for Jie Ming who followed her.

When Fu Ci brought Ji Chutang out to play, he didn't want to make a big noise, so he only brought Jie Ming, and didn't bring any extra servants, maids, or guards.

They were moving among the crowd and saw a circus troupe on the roadside, so Ji Chutang wanted to join in the fun.

I was surprised to see a girl standing on several stacked stools, bending over, holding several cloth balls in her hands and throwing them back and forth without dropping them.

Ji Chutang immediately applauded and generously gave out rewards.

The way she was dressed made her look like a young lady from a wealthy family, and with the veil on, she made people think she must be a gentle woman.

But I didn't expect that she loved watching circus so much and was so supportive. An ordinary young lady would not like these and would not support them even if she watched them.

So Ji Chutang caused everyone around to look over.

The juggling woman also bowed to Ji Chutang in thanks.

The people around saw that there was a handsome man standing next to Ji Chutang. Just looking at his expression, they knew he was not someone to be trifled with, so they withdrew their gazes for a moment.

After watching the acrobatics, Ji Chutang continued to walk deeper into the hall, and Fu Ci followed closely holding her hand.

"What were you doing at this time last year? Did you go out to play?"

Ji Chutang was stunned when he heard this.

At this time last year, she was preparing for her final exams in the Quick Travel Bureau, so she had no time to come out and play.

She shook her head, her animal-like eyes widened and looked very pitiful.

Fu Ci suddenly felt that he shouldn't ask too much. According to the information he had collected, she was an unfavored little girl at home. How could she have the opportunity to go out and play?

Seeing her lonely expression, Fu Ci felt a sudden pain in his heart.

"From now on, I will take you out to play every year."

Fu Ci held her hand and patted it twice as if to coax her.

Ji Chutang was still immersed in a quarrel with the system: [How could I, an outstanding graduate of the Quick Transmigration Bureau, be fooled by a useless guy like you and be bound to a little trash like you?]

The system is choking.

「You……you……」

Then he couldn't say anything to refute, and could only shrink in the system space feeling aggrieved, cursing silently.

Ji Chutang came back to his senses when he felt a slight touch on his hand.

I could only say, “Ah, yeah, that’s it.”

I replied with a few random words.

The heartache in Fu Ci's eyes was even more intense. He felt that Ji Chutang was too pitiful and didn't dare to believe his promise.

It doesn't matter. I will prove it with my actions and spend my whole life making up for the loss of her childhood.
