Jing Zhe never expected that Liu Jinghong would be willing to go to Zhang's Winery with him...

Putting aside the fact that it was amusing and unreliable, the main thing was that he was lying to her all along. He planned to sneak out and have some fun with Wang Yingqiu first, and then casually drop by the Zhang family's house to pick up a few wine jars...

"Fifth Sister, can you really manage without going to inspect the base?"

"no."

Liu Jinghong laughed and said, "We can go this afternoon!"

"Fifth Sister, there's really no need to waste your time. What's the point of bringing the wine jar?"

"Shut up!"

Liu Jinghong glared at him. "What, you don't want me to go that badly? Are you going to do something shady?"

Where?

Jing Zheyi said righteously, "Fifth Sister, don't overthink it. I just feel..."

"I don't care what you think, I care what I think! I'm definitely going to Zhang's Winery today! I've heard there's a beautiful young lady working there, I want to see for myself!"

"..."

Jing Zhe felt like crying but had no tears left to shed.

There's a mole inside; the plan is cancelled.

I can only take Liu Jinghong to Zhang's Winery. As for Wang Yingqiu, it seems I'll have to wait until Liu Jinghong leaves this afternoon.

"Fifth Sister, let's go!"

Jing Zhe said dejectedly.

"good…"

Liu Jinghong stopped after saying just one word.

Early in the morning, following Liu Jinghong's instructions, Wu Ma went out and bought her a set of clothes with a rather plain color and style. Liu Jinghong was wearing them at the time.

She glanced down at it, seemingly dissatisfied.

"Wait a moment, I'm going to change my clothes!"

"..."

After saying that, he ran out.

Why would you need to change clothes just to get a wine jar?

Jing Zhe shook his head, lost in thought.

Before long, Liu Jinghong came out, still wearing the same beautiful clothes as yesterday, and Jing Zhe was equally surprised when he saw her.

Previously, even when Liu Jinghong changed her clothes, she never wore makeup. Perhaps it was out of confidence, or perhaps she was too lazy to put on makeup, but she always appeared with a bare face.

Now, she wears light makeup, her eyebrows are like willow branches, and her thin lips are lightly adorned with vermilion, the color of which is pale yet charming and captivating.

"Fairy 2.0 version".

Jing Zhe sighed.

"What?"

Fairy Liu Jinghong knows, but not 2.0.

Jing Zhe didn't want to explain to her, he just smiled and said, "I mean, Fifth Sister is so beautiful, she's even more beautiful than a fairy!"

Liu Jinghong gently gathered her loose black hair around her fingers and tucked it behind her ear.

"Stop being so sarcastic, let's go!"

Jing Zhe followed behind her, watching Liu Jinghong sway gracefully in the spring sunshine, and couldn't help but ask, "Fifth Sister, we're just going to get a wine jar, why are you dressed so nicely?"

"I do!"

Liu Jinghong raised her head and said arrogantly.

She turned around and glanced at him. "What, you have a problem with that?"

Jing Zhe came up and took her hand, just like when they were little, and said in a coquettish tone, "You have too many opinions. Such a beautiful older sister is fine to admire by herself. It always makes me uncomfortable to let others see her!"

"..."

Liu Jinghong's eyes were like spring water, full of affection, and she reached out to gently pinch Jing Zhe's nose: "Okay, from now on you can only see me."

But his eyes immediately sharpened. "But not today!"

I want to see which family's little girl is so capable. My Zhe'er has only been here a few days and she's already so infatuated with him. I'm not satisfied with staying home with him; I have to run out to see her!

Today, I'm here to meet her!

Liu Jinghong clenched her fists, her eyes filled with anger.

...

On a bright autumn morning, the streets were bustling with activity.

Few ordinary people on the street actually knew Jing Zhe and Liu Jinghong, especially since the two of them, dressed in plain clothes and walking hand in hand, immediately attracted the attention of many people.

"What a handsome young man!"

"What a beautiful young lady!"

"A harmonious couple, like a perfect match!"

"..."

Hearing this, Liu Jinghong's pretty face flushed slightly, but she tilted her head back and seemed quite pleased. Jing Zhe, on the other hand, glared fiercely at the person who had just spoken: You're the one who's a bastard!

Please, if you have an accent, don't talk nonsense, okay?

While walking down the street, Liu Jinghong suddenly stopped.

Jing Zhe turned around and saw a jewelry stall on the side of the street. The stall was filled with various earrings, hairpins, bracelets and other small ornaments, which were dazzling and precious.

Liu Jinghong stared at them, her eyes shining.

"Fifth Sister, shouldn't you like things like swords and knives?"

"..."

Liu Jinghong bit her lip so hard it seemed to bleed, as if she wanted to bite Jing Zhe to pieces.

Liu Jinghong had never worn these before.

As a general who has fought on the battlefield for many years, it seems that it is not appropriate for her to wear it, and she wonders what the point of wearing it is, and who she is showing it to.

She did love swords, but that was only because she had no other choice. What girl doesn't yearn for beauty?

But she would feel embarrassed to buy these things by herself. Now that Jing Zhe is right next to her, it would be great if he bought them for her so that she could take them out and look at them when she returned to Liangzhou.

But this guy is really despicable; he didn't even have that idea!

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and he kicked Jing Zhe.

Startled, Jing Zhe quickly laughed and said, "I was just kidding, Fifth Sister! Let's go buy some!"

"Young master and madam, are you here to buy jewelry?"

The vendor was very persuasive; as soon as the two approached, he stood up and greeted them with a smile.

Young master, madam… these titles…

Jing Zhe turned his head to look at Liu Jinghong, only to see that her face was red, but she did not say anything to refute him. When she saw Jing Zhe looking at her, she turned her head to the side, and her fair neck and the back of her ears were also pink, which was very cute.

this…

Jing Zhe was surprised again.

Could it be that she has the same idea?

Jing Zhe suddenly realized that during the two nights they shared a bed, she had always played hard to get. If it were just out of affection for her younger brother, she would never have acted this way!

This only shows that she definitely had this thought in her mind, but perhaps she herself didn't even know it!

But it's enough for Jing Zhe to know.

His sister was incredibly beautiful, stunningly gorgeous, and doted on him. How could he bear to let his sister marry someone else?

Hehe, then how about...

What are you laughing at?

Liu Jinghong patted him on the shoulder, "Let's see which one looks better!"

It turned out that Liu Jinghong had already picked out several hairpins and earrings and was trying them on on her head, seeking Jing Zhe's opinion.

"Hehe, you're so pretty, you look good in anything!"

Now that the vendor had already mistaken them for a couple, he wouldn't call her "sister" anymore, to avoid making things awkward for everyone.

"You're so unserious!"

But he looked very happy.

The vendor, witnessing this scene, wished he could give Jing Zhe a thumbs up.

That mouth of hers is amazing!

Liu Jinghong chose a crystal-clear drop earring and had Jing Zhe put it on him, dangling and swaying by his ear.

Then he chose a blood-red bellflower hairpin. Jing Zhe took it and used it to gather up her loose black hair that was falling over her shoulders, inserting it diagonally into her flowing black hair.

The sunlight cast their shadows on the ground, a peaceful and beautiful scene.
