Come on, Jiaojiao, I'm sick too.

"Really not?" Wen Yuqing raised her head and looked at him with her big watery eyes blinking.

Xiao Juncheng lowered his eyes and looked coldly at the girl in front of him. She kept pretending. He wanted to see how long she could keep pretending.

Wen Yuqing couldn't see the expression on the man's face through the mask, but she could feel the coldness emanating from him. She pretended for a while but couldn't continue...

His gaze was so oppressive that she opened her mouth and said, "Haha, if Mr. Lu is busy, I won't bother you..."

Wen Yuqing took a step back, feeling as if she had been seen through. Otherwise, she might as well slip away. At this moment, her previous indomitable spirit and lofty ambitions were no longer there. Xiao Juncheng's eyes nailed her to the spot. She admitted that she was a little scared.

Only at this moment did she deeply feel the intimidation of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who was high above the ruling class.

Xiao Juncheng did not miss the fear in her eyes. He was afraid. Wasn't she very brave? It turned out that she was just like this. She seemed like a paper tiger. He really didn't know how she could control all those people in the Wen family.

Wen Yuqing stepped back and turned around. Just as she was about to leave, there was a loud bang in the sky and fireworks exploded above her head.

"Bang bang bang-"

She paused, then looked up at the fireworks rising into the sky. The brilliant fireworks lit up the night sky like a gorgeous feast.

There were such beautiful fireworks in ancient times...

"Bang bang bang-"

There was another loud bang, and bright spots shot straight into the sky. Fireworks were released, and the sky was scattering flowers. Wen Yuqing was stunned by the sight.

Xiao Juncheng raised her eyelids and took a look at the gorgeous sky above her head. It was just fireworks, which happened every year. What was so special about them? Was it worth her tilting her head up so high to see them?

Xiao Juncheng pursed his lips as he looked at the back of the head in front of him that was about to poke his chest. Does she know that she looks stupid like this?

It made him want to tear her head back.

He endured it and just took a step back silently. Forget it, it’s not right for men and women to touch each other.

After the fireworks ended, Wen Yuqing lowered her head. When she came to her senses, she found that she was surrounded by affectionate couples. Gah!

This was simply a large-scale dog abuse scene. She immediately covered her face and prepared to run away, but a gorgeous piece of clothing appeared in her peripheral vision...

Ok?

Wen Yuqing turned around. Why was he still here?

"Mr. Lu?" You haven't left yet?

"Stupid!" Xiao Juncheng opened his thin lips and slowly uttered a word.

Wen Yuqing: “???”

No, is he sick? Why did she scold her? Did she need a lesson just like her old man?

Looking at the girl's angry face, Xiao Juncheng felt it was funny for some reason. Why, she's being so stupid and won't let anyone say anything?

"Mr. Lu, I haven't offended you, have I?"

"I'm just expressing my opinion."

Expressing your opinion? Who told you to express your opinion like that? You're making a personal attack!

Wen Yuqing glanced at the masked man angrily, humph, wearing a mask all day long, what a strong man!

"Oh, so Mr. Lu wears a mask every day because he's too ugly to show his true face, right?" "You're calling me stupid? Then I'll call you ugly!"

Xiao Juncheng paused, then raised his eyebrows: "Provoke me?"

He wore the mask just to avoid unnecessary trouble.

"Humph!"

Want to see his true face? Wishful thinking.

Just as he was about to ask her to go home quickly, the crowd around him suddenly began to surge: "Hurry up, it's time to release river lanterns..."

The fireworks were over, and it was time to release river lanterns. Wen Yuqing was standing in the middle of the crowd and was bumped by someone unexpectedly. Because she was not prepared, she suddenly fell towards Xiao Juncheng. Oh my god, the classic scene is coming!

Wen Yuqing closed her eyes excitedly.

Xiao Juncheng raised his hand expressionlessly to protect the girl who had succeeded. If he had known, he would not have said so much to her. Don't think that he didn't see the smile that flashed across her face, but now the crowd was surging, and if he didn't catch her, she would be trampled into a meat pie.

Wen Yuqing lay in the man's arms, with a faint scent of ambergris lingering in her nose. She opened one eye and secretly glanced at the man who put his arms around her. When she met the man's deep eyes, she instantly lowered her head and looked like a quail.

"Thanks..."

Xiao Juncheng looked up at the sky, hoping that the crowd would pass by quickly.

Xiao Juncheng stood steadily in the center of the crowd. A protective circle seemed to have formed around him, and no one would bump into him without thinking. The two of them hugged each other quietly in the crowd.

At first, Wen Yuqing's heart was beating fast, but after a long time, the deer in her heart got tired of beating. She didn't wait for these people to leave, so she reached out and fiddled with the tassel jade pendant hanging around Xiao Juncheng's waist out of boredom.

"Don't move."

Wen Yuqing curled her lips and stopped touching his things, but her eyes were always on the jade pendant. Such a big piece of jade, and of such good quality, if it was put on a modern auction, wouldn't people be scrambling for it?

Xiao Juncheng frowned as he looked at Wen Yuqing, who had been staring at the jade pendant on his waist. "Like it?" "Is the Wen family so poor that they don't even have a jade pendant?"

While he was thinking, the number of people rushing to the river to release river lanterns gradually decreased, leaving only a few young couples walking hand in hand on the street. Xiao Juncheng withdrew his arm from protecting the girl, then took off the jade pendant from his waist and put it in her hand.

Wen Yuqing stared at the jade pendant in her hand with wide eyes: "This jade pendant..."

"Here you go." It's just a jade pendant, so she wouldn't have to look at him like a pervert.

"Ah? Isn't that bad?" Wen Yuqing frowned. Isn't he afraid that she will misunderstand?

In ancient times, men gave women jade pendants... I heard it was a token of love...

"No?" He reached out to take it back. This was the first time he was so generous. He was so ungrateful!

Wen Yuqing quickly hid her hands behind her back: "Yes, thank you...it's a gift for Qiqiao Festival~"

Wen Yuqing paused and said, no matter why he gave her this jade pendant, she misunderstood anyway, that's what he meant, hehe~

hee hee~

"Let's go. How about I give you a lantern as a return gift?" As she said that, she walked to the stall selling lanterns next to her and exchanged a lantern for a jade pendant. Oh wow, she wouldn't tell you who made the profit.

Lanterns? Looking at those childish things, he frowned. These things were not suitable for him. They were things for girls.

He walked over and said, "No need."

Wen Yuqing paused while picking up the lantern and looked at the man wearing the golden mask. Yes, how could he like such childish things, so she withdrew her hand.

At this time, the stall owner couldn't stand it anymore and said: "This gentleman, you are sending lanterns for Qiqiao Festival. This is a token of my love. Girl, don't be sad. You are so beautiful, and this guy doesn't know what's good for you. Let's move on to the next one, the next one will be better."
