The Lantern Festival is still going on.
The crowd on the street began to dwindle, and the children on the snowball fight platform went home one after another, leaving only Yan Yunshu and Xu Jinghuai. The two of them watched the children go home and stood quietly by the platform.
The snow fell harder and harder.
It covered up all traces of the previous play, and it seemed as if no one had ever been on such a large platform.
It seemed as if those laughter and joy had never existed.
Yan Yunshu held the corner of Xu Jinghuai's clothes with one hand and covered her mouth with the other hand, but her eyes were still full of bright smiles.
"Xu Jinghuai! Did you hear that? People say you're not smart!"
Xu Jinghuai's gaze fell on Yan Yunshu's eyebrows. Her stretched eyes were like gorgeous summer flowers blooming in the white snow.
His heart seemed to be gently kneaded and moved by someone, making him feel an emotion that he could not express in words.
"Xu Jinghuai! Are you stupid?"
A cold little hand took the opportunity to be placed on his face, and Xu Jinghuai grasped the hand tightly as if by reflex.
"Yan Yunshu!"
"Um?"
"Still playing?"
Yan Yunshu was stunned. She looked around and then at Xu Jinghuai's face covered with snowflakes. She burst out laughing, "No more playing. If we continue, someone will get sick and cry. I don't know who was holding me tightly like when we were kids!"
Xu Jinghuai's handsome face flushed, "No way."
"Just now I just pulled you down, and you got angry. You're not exactly like when we were little, always throwing tantrums and getting angry with me."
"You're talking nonsense!"
"Xu Jinghuai, I think what the child's mother said just now is quite right."
"Um?"
"You really don't have a very good brain." Yan Yunshu said, and ran towards the bridge.
Xu Jinghuai grabbed a handful of snow and chased after her, "Yan Yunshu! You can't just listen to the second half of the sentence. People also said that you are not smart enough!"
Over the past three years, the depression accumulated by the two people's different life trajectories seemed to have dissipated a lot with this unrestrained night.
Xu Jinghuai looked at Yan Yunshu's jumping figure and muttered to himself.
"Yan Yunshu, I don't seem to hate snowy days so much anymore."
"Yan Yunshu, I don't seem to hate you anymore."
…
As the night deepened, the crowds finally thinned out and the vendors began to pack up their stalls.
Yan Yunshu and Xu Jinghuai were covered in snow and walked side by side on the street.
"Young man, buy a lantern for the girl you like!" The old man selling lanterns looked at the two of them with a smile. There were still some unsold lanterns on his stall.
Yan Yunshu quickly waved her hands, "No, I'm not the one he likes..."
Xu Jinghuai said without hesitation, "Okay!"
Yan Yunshu looked at Xu Jinghuai in shock.
Xu Jinghuai's handsome face looked even softer and more resolute under the light of the lanterns.
The seldom seen tenderness suddenly appeared on Xu Jinghuai's face at this moment.
He carefully selected a fire phoenix lantern.
Handed it to Yan Yunshu.
"Yan Yunshu, the Fire Phoenix represents nirvana and rebirth, bravery and unyielding spirit. I hope that from now on, you can be as steadfast and unyielding as this Fire Phoenix."
Yan Yunshu hesitated for a moment, but still took it.
"Thanks……"
Thank you, Xu Jinghuai. This is the first time in the past three years that she has received a gift during the Lantern Festival, and it has such a meaning.
In such a cold winter, she felt warm.
Yan Yunshu looked at the lantern carefully, and Xu Jinghuai looked at her.
"Do you like it?"
"like."
Yan Yunshu's jade-like face is illuminated by the lanterns.
Bright and charming.
"Yan Yunshu."
"Um?"
"Yan Yunshu, I don't know why you suddenly ran away from Tianxiang Tower today, but I hope..."
Xu Jinghuai took a deep breath and said, "I hope that since you have chosen to move forward, you will never look back."
Yan Yunshu was stunned.
She looked at Xu Jinghuai.
Now that you understand his intention, don't look back.
Xu Jingye’s journey is a road of no return filled with blood and tears.
This time, she certainly won't look back, she has chosen a completely new path.
"good!"
…
The next day, the news spread throughout Tianze Kingdom.
"Do you know that yesterday, in Tianxiang Tower, His Royal Highness the Second Prince had a group of noble young men and young ladies imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice because they were too noisy, waiting for their father to come and take them back one by one."
"It's not surprising that His Royal Highness the Second Prince would act this way. After all, he is a temperamental and unconventional person."
"I heard that he took those young men and women away because they humiliated Yan Yunshu, the daughter of the Prime Minister's family."
"That's wrong! Although Yan Yunshu, the daughter of the Prime Minister, stunned everyone yesterday with her beauty like a fairy, she still looks mad and foolish, and she actually ran out of Tianxiang Tower alone."
"As expected, even if she has changed her appearance now, she is still just a facade without substance. She can never compare to the talented, beautiful, simple and kind-hearted Miss Shuyao from the Xiangfu!"
"This woman is vicious! I heard that when His Royal Highness the Second Prince was dealing with those children from aristocratic families yesterday, she was fanning the flames and suggesting that His Royal Highness the Second Prince lock them up in the Ministry of Justice for interrogation!"
"What a vicious and vicious woman! God should strike this crazy and vicious woman to death!!!"
Yan Yunshu, who was scolded by the world as crazy and vicious, had already expected that there would be more rumors in the market when she woke up early.
She wasn't annoyed either.
