Chu Shuli didn't expect that when she turned her head, she would see such a scene.

What's worse, Wen Mingyu seemed to sense her gaze, looked back, smiled at her, and then turned around, holding hands with the tall man beside him, and continued to walk into the bustling street scene under the fireworks.

Chu Shuli was immediately stunned. Everything around her seemed to have faded from color and became silent. Only the two figures standing side by side not far away were alive and grabbed all her mind.

Chu Shuli was even more excited than when she read Yumu's words. It's just that she always wanted to be more mature and steady, and tried her best to hold back, but she was afraid that she would scream and frighten passersby.

She covered Wei Chen's eyes with her hands, but the guy was very stubborn and struggled to take her hand. But at this time, Wen Mingyu and Mu Zhan had already integrated into the crowd and walked away.

Wei Chen was not reconciled: "Is there anything I can't watch? You also found something wrong with that Mumu?"

Chu Shuli covered her heart secretly and waved her hand.

Yes, yes, something was wrong, she felt like her heart was going to explode with excitement.

She tried her best to keep her face expressionless, pretending to be serious.

Although she accidentally discovered the relationship between the two of them, and they were very calm and didn't mind being known, she was not a party after all, so she couldn't talk nonsense.

So, she just shook her head and changed the subject.

Looking at other people's immortal couples, she couldn't help but think for a while, when would she have such love, but soon, she came back to her senses and looked at a dandy boy beside her, a tall and cold man A straight man, a narcissistic brat... There is no one that is normal and reliable.

Chu Shuli was shocked and quickly woke up. What man do you want? What's better than the title incense on the Gold List? If she can be admitted to the top one, whether it is the No. 2 champion or the third flower, she can wake up with a smile when she falls asleep.

So, the little girl's mind that had just appeared was smothered by herself, and she devoted herself to the festival. For some reason, she and Wei Chen started a lantern riddle guessing competition to see who could solve the riddles faster, more and better. , Not long after, Shao Yan also joined it. Only the scumbag Ye Xu stood there in confusion, feeling that he was out of tune with this world.

the other side.

Wen Mingyu and Mu Zhan were walking on the streets of the capital, crowded and bustling.

In order not to collide with others, they were very close, almost shoulder to shoulder. Because of their outstanding looks, they can be seen at a glance in the crowd. From time to time, pretty young girls peek at them with blushing faces. If they are bolder, they will even try to get close and make an excuse to get to know them euphemistically.

The atmosphere of this dynasty was relatively open, and it did not impose too much restraint on women, and it would not require that there be no door to the second door, and Mu Zhan also promoted that women can also participate in the imperial examination, which has brought a lot of influence.

Mu Zhan did this for the sake of the overall situation, but now when he sees those little girls peeking at Wen Mingyu and trying to get close, his face becomes extremely ugly, and he can't wait to make Wen Mingyu smaller and put it in his sleeve pocket , so that no one can see it.

The spirits pheromone surged, obviously irritable. Wen Mingyu felt it right away, and without thinking about it, she turned to look at Mu Zhan, seeing his cold face, a look of displeasure.

Wen Mingyu was stunned for a moment, then glanced around again, the young girl who wanted to approach but was scared back by Mu Zhan's black face and terrifying aura. He quickly reacted, and he was dumbfounded. He leaned over, looked at him, and whispered seriously, "I don't like them, I only like you."

Mu Zhan paused, and his stinky face immediately became visible to the naked eye. Visibly eased and improved, and there was even a hint of a smile that couldn't be concealed.

Not only that, but when he continued to walk forward, Mu Zhan moved and deliberately showed the hands that held them together, in an intimate gesture of interlacing his fingers.

Immediately afterwards, Mu Zhan felt that it was just not obvious enough to hold hands, so he got close from time to time, talked to Wen Mingyu, or touched his hair.

Now, whether it's a man or a woman, anyone who wants to strike up a conversation will be caught off guard and eat a mouthful of dog food, panicking. The handsome young man who was originally amazed at first glance and had a good impression in his heart wanted to walk over to get to know him, but found that he already had a partner, and he was also a handsome man.

The young girls had to stop, it was a pity in their hearts, but thinking about it again, if the boy is so good-looking, there is a high probability that it cannot be his own. It is better to watch him with another attractive man than with other girls, otherwise he will Jealousy.

As a result, most of the people in Beijing who are more open to this eye-catching male couple saw them inadvertently, and most of them sent blessings.

On the Shangyuan Festival, there are many performances on the street, such as dragon lanterns, lion dances, dry boats, etc., and all of them are very skilled and admirable.

There are a lot of people in the place where the performance is performed, and they are lively onlookers.

Not far from the front, suddenly there was an angry roar from the old man: "Raise the dragon!" The

majestic dragon head stood up, and the sturdy young man carried it on his shoulders, leading the dragon lantern team forward, a long road of lights. Winding, beating gongs and drums, suona chirping, along the way, people will continue to join the dragon team carrying lamps, the lamp dragon will get longer and longer, and fireworks will be lit from time to time to welcome, firecrackers are shaking the sky, red and lively, lively Extremely.

Wen Mingyu leaned over to look curiously, but there were already a lot of onlookers standing in front of him, and some of them were fathers. They let the child sit on his shoulders and watch. . And Wen Mingyu was a bit miserable standing in the back, he could only see a small part, and it was useless to jump up.

He was thinking about whether to look at it from another position. When he turned his head to talk to Mu Zhan, his waist suddenly tightened, and he was held by a pair of strong hands. The next moment, his body was suspended in the air, and the whole person's field of vision became higher.

It was Mu Zhan who picked him up.

Wen Mingyu panicked, but after realizing it was Mu Zhan, he quickly relaxed again.

"Can it be seen?"

Mu Zhan's deep voice came from behind. Wen Mingyu nodded subconsciously, but thought that he might not be able to see, so he answered again.

After being held high, I could clearly see the long dragon lantern team in front, which was very shocking.

Wen Mingyu's eyes widened, and a dazzling light like the Milky Way was reflected in his eyes.

Just after watching for a while, the child in front turned his head inadvertently and happened to meet Wen Mingyu's eyes, and found that this brother was even taller than him, obviously he was the tallest person here when he sat on his father's shoulder just now.

The child's eyes widened in shock. His eyes were full of envy. He opened his mouth and said, "Brother, you are so tall!"

His voice immediately attracted his father's attention, and he also turned around. Head looked over. When he looked up and saw Wen Mingyu, the child's father was stunned for a moment, then unconsciously looked at Wen Mingyu and Mu Zhan more and smiled.

Wen Mingyu blushed instantly, and was extremely embarrassed, as if he wanted someone to hold him and watch the show, just like the three-year-old child. He quickly patted his hand on his waist and said, "Quick, let me down."

Mu Zhan smiled and said, "Don't you watch it?"

Wen Mingyu said without thinking, "Don't watch it, don't watch it. "

Looking further, he is completely dead here.

Mu Zhan let out a low laugh and let him down according to his words, but his movements were a little slow. Wen Mingyu was so anxious that she couldn't help grabbing his hand, her palm was against the back of his hand, but she didn't dare to exert force, for fear of letting him loose and falling to the ground.

However, in less than a quarter of an hour, Wen Mingyu felt an unexpectedly long time, and the crimson on her cheeks could not fade away for a while.

Mu Zhan reached out and touched his face, it was really hot, and he couldn't help laughing.

Wen Mingyu grabbed his wiggly hand, held it tightly, and walked forward together.

Mu Zhan said, "Why didn't you watch it?"

Wen Mingyu lowered her head and muttered softly, "...I'm not a child."

However , Mu Zhan said, "You are just a child." For some reason , Wen Mingyu felt that something was not right. When she heard this sentence, her heart jumped, and she was very happy.

It's not that they don't stop looking at the dragon lantern. This long lantern dragon has been extending, at least several thousand feet, as if there is no end in sight. Such a visit, a few hours are certain, on the Yuan Festival, the capital is sleepless all night.

Dragons and lions danced and fireworks exploded.

The east wind blooms thousands of trees at night, and it blows down even more, the stars are like rain. *

The street is full of lanterns, flowers are everywhere, the lights are swaying, the styles of the lights are complex and diverse, and they are exquisitely made.

Wen Mingyu and Mu Zhan walked forward side by side, stopping and walking, stopping to see anything they were interested in.

A group of people arguing around a red lantern saw and walked over.

This is guessing lantern riddles, but many people have tried it, but they can't figure it out.

Wen Mingyu took a look and heard others say that the shop's lanterns are extraordinarily exquisite, but they don't sell them, they are only given to customers who guess the lantern riddles.

Looking up, I saw beautiful lanterns all around, and some even drew a rotating ink painting on the lantern, which was very thoughtful.

Wen Mingyu suddenly wanted to give Mu Zhan one.

He took a fancy to an octagonal palace lantern, with fine wood as the skeleton, inlaid with silk yarn, and decorated with colorful tassels at the bottom. The painting screen was painted with a golden dragon, and even the dragon scales were painted very carefully and lifelike. The most important thing, of course, is that he thinks of Mu Zhan when he looks at it. Although he has never seen Mu Zhan's dragon shape, he can imagine a majestic golden dragon based on the golden scales on his tail.

Generally speaking, palace lanterns, as the name suggests, are only used in the palace, but because of the celebration of the Shangyuan Festival, some are specially allowed to be made into the folk for people to appreciate, but they are not allowed to be traded.

"Which riddle do you have to guess to get this lantern?"

Wen Mingyu asked.

The store owner looked at the sound, and when he saw Wen Mingyu's appearance, he was stunned for a moment, and then replied warmly. It happened to be the big red lantern that was surrounded by a large group of people just now and had no answer to the mystery.

The dragon-painted palace lantern can be said to be the most luxurious and exquisite here, and it is only natural that lantern riddles are more difficult.

Wen Mingyu followed along, always trying.

Below the lantern hangs a note with a puzzle written on it -

a white snake crossing the river, and a red sun overhead. (Taking common things in the day, and using a riddle to match the next couplet) *

Wen Mingyu put his hand on his chin, frowning in thought.

Mu Zhan stood beside him, tilted his head and lowered his voice and asked, "Do you like that lantern very much?"

Wen Mingyu nodded subconsciously, then quickly grabbed his sleeve and said, "I have to guess by myself, I have the answer, it is I'm thinking about the next couplet."

Mu Zhan listened and stood by his side, without saying much.

It didn't take long for Wen Mingyu to give his answer, and said in a clear voice: "Oolong is on the wall, wearing ten thousand gold stars.*"

"The answer to the mystery of the first couplet?"

"Oil lamp."

"Congratulations, this lantern is this one . It's an honored guest." The store owner smiled and carefully handed the dragon-painted palace lantern to Wen Mingyu.

The onlookers were amazed, and it turned out that the answer was this. The white cotton thread was used as the wick, which was likened to "white snake", the oil was likened to "jiang", and the flame after lighting was "red sun". *

But as soon as I understood the first link, there was another second link, and everyone couldn't help but start to be confused and think hard.

Wen Mingyu didn't look at others, but directly handed the lantern he just got to Mu Zhan.

Mu Zhan: "Can I get it for you?"

Wen Mingyu shook her head and smiled brightly, "No, it's for you."

Mu Zhan was stunned, and then the pheromone became agitated and turbulent, as if it could not be restrained. Wen Mingyu was startled, and quickly grabbed his hand, released his fruity aroma to appease, and reminded in a low voice, "This is the street."

Mu Zhan's eyes were dark, and he stared at Wen Mingyu closely, as if to People are locked into their eyes. He knew it was on the street, so he couldn't do many things, and he was even more impatient.

He held the lantern in one hand, and held Wen Mingyu's hand in the other, his voice hoarse and low, "Let's go back?"

In fact, after walking around, Wen Mingyu nodded, but his ears were red, even in such a Under the candlelight of many lanterns, it could not hide it.

When Mu Zhan and Wen Mingyu were far away, the others breathed a sigh of relief. For some unknown reason, I had a terrible feeling just now, and I almost couldn't breathe well. They were at a loss. Could it be that they just saw someone guessing riddles and giving lanterns to their lovers.

Mu Zhan took Wen Mingyu's hand and walked back all the way, walking against the flow of people, forming a sharp contrast with the surrounding crowd. Soon, many people noticed them.

The tall man was unusually handsome, holding a graceful and luxurious dragon-painted palace lantern in his left hand, and holding a handsome young man tightly in the other hand. The two wore similar clothes, but the embroidery was different, and their temperament was outstanding, like a luminous body in the crowd.

It looked like a person walking out of a painting.

The eyes of passersby near them were attracted, and they slowed down their pace unconsciously, causing congestion.

Mu Zhan was impatient, so his face sank inch by inch. He didn't say anything, but passersby felt obvious coercion, and almost instinctively gave way to let them leave from the middle.

As a result, the picture becomes very strange.

Wherever Mu Zhan and Wen Mingyu were going, the people in front spontaneously gave way, like a respectful greeting ceremony.

Wen Mingyu wasn't afraid of crowds at first, but she was staring at him until her scalp was numb, and she couldn't help but bow her head.

But at this time, I also vaguely heard the words of some passers-by.

"Are they a couple? They're still holding hands!"

"It's so bold, but I like it."

"The little man in the back keeps his head down, is he shy? Hehe.

" It's simple and unobtrusive, and it's even more difficult for people to pretend they don't understand.

"Xiao Langjun's ears are red!" A girl whispered excitedly, until she saw the person walking away, the back disappeared from the field of vision, and then she reluctantly retracted her gaze.

And Wen Mingyu, who walked out of the crowd, also heard this sentence, and her ears became hotter immediately.

The carriage stopped near the entrance of Yingxian Tower, waiting for them.

Mu Zhan asked Wen Mingyu to get into the carriage first. He also wanted to leave quickly, so he stepped on the pedals and got into the carriage. Mu Zhan supported him behind him, his hand naturally supported his lower back, and the temperature in his palm was astonishingly hot. If it weren't for the thick clothes, Wen Mingyu would definitely have felt it.

As soon as Wen Mingyu sat down, Mu Zhan also came in. The carriage door was closed behind him, and the inside of the car fell into darkness. Only the lanterns and candles outside the window poured down, sprinkled on the curtain, and let in a little warm light.

He couldn't see Mu Zhan's face, it was half-light and half-dark, hidden in the ambiguous and quiet darkness, but he could clearly feel the crazy surging pheromones, the strong aroma of wine, like a ferocious wave coming, dense and dense Surrounded on the ground, engulfed him at once.

The aroma of the wine was approaching, and a dark shadow shrouded it. Wen Mingyu didn't dodge, but stretched out his arms to wrap his arms around Mu Zhan's neck. When his kiss fell, he also kissed back, rubbing his ears, and his hot breath intertwined between his lips and teeth. Slowly getting wet, the kiss was getting hotter and hotter, and the temperature in the entire car was also rising, as if it was burning.

The carriage was already moving forward at some point in time, swaying, making people a little dizzy.

At this time, by coincidence, a huge fireworks bloomed in the night sky, and the dazzling light reflected on Mu Zhan's face.

Wen Mingyu opened his eyes in confusion, and saw Mu Zhan's face close at hand. After walking outside for so long, the covering makeup had faded a lot, and he could clearly see his straight nose and deep eyebrows. , the long eyelashes fell, and the small fireworks and himself were reflected in the eyes, as if thousands of stars fell into it.

At the end of the kiss, Wen Mingyu almost melted into the kiss, turning into a pool of sweet water. Mu Zhan held him in his arms, he could only pant quickly, lay softly on Mu Zhan's shoulder, and let Mu Zhan gently peck and kiss the corner of his face, occasionally itchy, he didn't hide, but instead. Leaning up, he also kissed Mu Zhan's chin.

Inadvertently, his eyes crossed Mu Zhan's shoulders and landed on the dragon painting palace lantern in the corner. The thin silk yarn showed candlelight and fell on the carpet to form a soft halo, hazy and warm. As the carriage swayed, the dragon shadow in the middle also swayed. In a trance, the little golden dragon in the painting seemed to come alive, flying through the clouds.

Wen Mingyu lay on Mu Zhan's shoulder, looked lazily, and couldn't help laughing.

"It's so beautiful."
