"Writing is also possible, but writing is not easier than drawing," the old man reminded her.

Not only must the strokes of the written characters be clearly visible so that people can recognize what the characters are, but they must also be connected in one stroke, otherwise the candy man will be incomplete.

Nian Susu was thinking about how to write, but he didn't start.

The three characters "Qin Junyu" have too many strokes to fit on an iron plate, and they would probably become a mess. In the end, she decided to just write the character "Qin".

Once she had an idea, she started to work.

The boiling syrup swayed left and right as she moved, like a nimble little snake.

Qin Junyu was fully focused. He recognized her halfway through writing and a smile gradually appeared on his face.

I thought she would write her own name, but she wrote his last name.

This kind of happiness and surprise cannot be experienced by others.

For example, grandpa.

"Girl, is there a stroke missing?" He scratched the back of his graying head and looked at the words on the iron plate carefully.

Nian Susu smiled awkwardly. Although the writing was not perfect, she was already very satisfied. After all, it was her first time. She put the wooden stick on it, allowing the syrup that was not completely solidified to lock firmly on the stick.

A sugar man is ready.

She held up the word "Qin" and handed it to him, "Hey, how is it?"

Qin Junyu looked satisfied, "Very good."

He didn't take the candy man, but grabbed her wrist and lifted it up to signal her to get up.

Nian Susu guessed what he was going to do and took the initiative to give up his seat.

Although Qin Junyu is also a novice, he has a foundation in calligraphy. The strong never complain about the environment. His unparalleled Slender Gold style of calligraphy can be written well even if he holds an iron spoon and uses syrup as ink.

The old man was stunned, staring at the word "Nian" on the iron basin with his jaw dropped for a long time.

"This gentleman writes really well."

Because Qin Junyu's handwriting was so beautiful, it attracted a lot of people to watch, and some people even offered high prices to ask him to write for them. The calls were getting louder and louder, but Qin Junyu did not agree. He put down a silver ingot, took Nian Susu and ran away.

Holding the sugar figures in their hands, the two men ran out of the crowd against the biting cold wind and stopped only when they reached an open area.

“Hu…” Nian Susu was breathing heavily, her little face flushed. The fur of her cloak was piled around her cheeks like a glutinous rice dumpling covered with rouge.

They exchanged sugar figures, Nian Susu held his own "Nian" and Qin Junyu held "Qin".

If he had a mobile phone, Nian Susu would definitely take a photo to record it. Unfortunately, in this era, the good memories can only exist in our minds.

She bit off a corner of the candy man and found it tasted ordinary, not even as delicious as the malt sugar crisps she usually ate. But because the person who made the candy man was very important, the candy man became precious.

Qin Junyu, who doesn't like sweets, ate most of it. In the end, he couldn't bear it anymore. He couldn't bear to throw away the remaining half, so he wrapped it in a handkerchief and put it away.

They climbed up the city wall together.

Looking down from the city wall, the crowds and lights below are like a winding Milky Way.

They could not hear the hustle and bustle of people, and the wind whistled past their ears, bringing gusts of coldness.

Nian Susu shuddered.

Fortunately, Qin Junyu had the foresight to ask someone to bring her the cloak, otherwise she would have been frozen to death.

She rubbed her cold hands together and smiled. Her smile grew stronger. She raised her eyes to look at him, "Your Highness, do you still remember this time last year?"

Qin Junyu nodded. He remembered, of course he remembered.

Last year on the Lantern Festival, they were also on this city wall, with fireworks exploding above their heads. He gave her a bracelet and she gladly accepted it.

At that time, she didn't know what it meant when a man gave a bracelet to a woman.

But she should know now.

Nian Susu raised her arm and pulled up one sleeve. A jade bracelet dangled from her wrist, which was as pure as a lotus root. It was the one he gave her.

She laughs and so does he.

"You helped me put it on last year, but this year, I put it on myself."

This means that she is willing to accept his love and marry him.

Qin Junyu's excitement was beyond words, he clenched his fists, so happy that he didn't know what expression to show. There were not many things and people who could affect his emotions, and his emotions were seldom revealed, so at this moment, he should be happy enough to shout, but he couldn't do it.

He held her in his arms, hugged her tightly, and his voice was almost trembling, "Miss Nian..."

Qin Junyu always felt that calling her Miss Nian was too distant, but calling her by her nickname seemed too abrupt.

He asked tentatively: "Then from now on, can I call you Lingling... just like Madam Nian?"

Nian Susu's cheeks turned red and she said "hmm" after a long time. If it was true that the deer was running around, then her deer should have been killed.

My heart is beating faster…

Qin Junyu was so excited that he wanted to hold her in his arms. She was out of breath and coughed a few times, so he hurriedly let her go.

The atmosphere was too ambiguous, and both of them blushed and were not used to this kind of atmosphere. They were only two steps away from each other, and they could almost hear each other's heartbeat and heavy and disordered breathing.

In order to ease the awkwardness, Nian Susu changed the subject and asked him, "Are there any fireworks this year?"

Last year's event was so grand, so this year can't be even more shabby than last year, right? They are getting married soon, and their relationship has progressed a step further than before, so the surprise should be doubled.

Qin Junyu seemed a little embarrassed, as if he was "not prepared for anything".

Nian Susu understood this hesitation and embarrassment? What did it mean? It would be a lie to say that she was not disappointed, but she silently found an excuse for him in her heart. Fireworks are not something you can get just by asking for them. She asked so suddenly, so it was normal for him to be unprepared.

Nian Susu wrapped himself in his cloak and said, "It's too cold up there, let's go down."

She walked towards the stairs, but Qin Junyu did not follow her.

After taking three steps, she realized that the person behind her didn't come over, so she had to stop and turn around. When she was about to ask, she saw Qin Junyu looking at her with a smile, his eyes hiding some brilliance.

"Snap" he snapped his fingers.

The next second, a flash of fire appeared behind him, and fireworks filled the sky, painting the entire sky in color. His face was reflected by the colors of the fireworks, and his doting smile had a hint of pride.

Nian Susu was extremely surprised and stared at the gorgeous fireworks with wide eyes.

Qin Junyu slowly walked up to her, held her face, and asked seriously: "How is it? Are you satisfied?"

She nodded excitedly, "Yeah! I love it!"

People under the city wall stopped to watch and were shocked by the grand rain of fireworks.

Fireworks exploded all around them, the crowd cheered, but they only had eyes for each other.

Qin Junyu's thumb gently stroked her fair cheek and slowly moved to her pink red lips.

He leaned over and slowly moved closer.

The breath of both of them sprayed on each other's faces, two fingers away. Nian Susu didn't wait for him to kiss her, but took the initiative to stand on tiptoe and kiss him.
