Chapter 104 "I like you, and that's a secret I want to make public."
Jing Xuan murmured: "A number, what does it mean?"
Yuan Lianye was always good at guessing riddles, and her thoughts turned quickly: "It's either the sum of several numbers, or it refers to this number alone."
"Thirty-six hours is three days, three days..."
"Shit!" Yuan Lianye's eyes lit up, "Three shis equals - Jing!"
As soon as the words fell, the boss smiled and said, "The girl's answer is correct."
Everyone then realized that this question was not difficult; they just thought about it too complicatedly.
The next puzzle - "The Second Miss."
Looking at the three words without a beginning or an end, everyone fell into deep thought again.
"Second Miss, Second Miss..." Jing Yu muttered, "It's the second daughter, the second daughter is... Zi!"
"That's right!" The boss knocked the gong hard and took out another puzzle.
The two little girls forgot what they were here for and spent a long time guessing the riddle. In the end, they won and got the tallest, most exquisite and gorgeous lantern.
When the two of them happily took the lanterns, Jing Xuan suddenly froze: "Cousin, we are not here to guess lantern riddles."
Yuan Lianye: “…”
She suddenly stopped laughing.
At this moment, a low laugh came from the side.
The two looked over together, and saw a handsome young man in green clothes looking at them with a faint smile: "Miss Yuan, Princess Changning is fine."
"Second Young Master Yin?" Jing Yu recognized the man, glanced at the flowers in his hand, and her heart sank.
She was not surprised that Yin Boyan could recognize them. After all, he had been guessing for so long about the lanterns and could recognize the voices. But...what would her cousin do if Yin Boyan gave the flowers to someone else?
Yin Boyan was unaware of Jing Xuan's worries, and turned his gaze to the silent Yuan Lianye: "Miss Yuan, I have a request..."
"What?" Yuan Lianye, who was always gentle, spoke in a low voice, as if she was displeased.
"It's like this, I don't know what to do with the flower in my hand. Can you help me?" Yin Boyan didn't seem to hear her dissatisfaction and still smiled.
Yuan Lianye was stunned for a moment, seemingly unable to react.
Seeing her dazed, Jing Yu felt anxious for her and poked her lightly with her elbow.
Yin Boyan looked calm, but he was nervous. He was silent for a moment, and his hands behind his back tightened slightly: "Can I give you the flowers?"
Yuan Lianye's eyes suddenly widened, and hesitantly said, "Give it to me?!"
"Yes." Yin Boyan nodded: "But, it's a matter of reciprocity. I gave it to you, and you..."
Before he could finish his words, Yuan Lianye stuffed the flowers in her hand into his hand, snatched his flowers away, and groaned, "How can a man be so slow?"
Jing Yu: “!!”
My cousin is so awesome!
The corner of Yin Boyan's mouth slightly raised.
Many people know that Miss Yuan San is gentle and quiet, but only Yin Boyan, her childhood sweetheart, knows that this girl has never been quiet since she was a child, and no one knows how she became what she is now.
He had finally waited for Yuan Lianye to reach adulthood, so there was no way he would miss this year's Flower Festival.
He lowered his eyes, looked at Yuan Lianye with a smile, and said softly: "I was wrong."
The two of them were almost fed up with each other. Jing Yu felt a little blocked in the heart and missed Chu Mo more and more.
"Cousin, I can go shopping by myself." Knowing that Yuan Lianye was worried, Jing Yu winked at her: "You know, I'm going to look for him."
"But……"
"It's okay, I have secret guards to protect me, don't worry." Jing Yu raised her head and stared at Yin Boyan, and put her hands on her hips fiercely: "Yin Boyan, this princess orders you to take good care of your cousin, otherwise, I will chop off your head!"
Yin Boyan's eyes were full of smiles, and he pretended to be panicked and saluted: "Yin Boyan obeys the order of Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
The two of them walked away, and it was time for Jing Xuan to go find her own master.
She paused and thought: She is wearing a mask, so Chu Mo won't fail to recognize her, right? Before I could finish my thoughts, a gust of wind blew behind me, as if someone had suddenly landed on me.
Jing Xuan turned around, and what caught her eye was a strong and broad chest. She slowly raised her eyes and met the peach blossom eyes that were smiling dotingly under the mask.
Jing Yu's eyes lit up: "Chu Xiaomo?"
Chu Mo was stunned for a moment, and after he reacted, his smile deepened: "Little Princess."
Jing Xuan was about to speak, but she saw Chu Mo bending down, hooking his right arm around her knees, and holding her in his arms like a princess.
"Wait a moment, we have to get out of here first."
Before he finished speaking, the young man quickly stepped over the wall, used his lightness skills to fly lightly onto the roof, and carried her away in front of everyone.
Some young masters who recognized Jing Xuan were thinking about how to talk to the princess, but now they could only watch Her Royal Highness the Princess fly away.
Yuan Lianye, who was watching everything not far away, widened his eyes and exclaimed sincerely: "It's amazing!"
Yin Boyan: “?”
Jing Xuan was also confused at this time. She nestled in his arms obediently, raised her head slightly, and stared at his handsome profile in the candlelight.
Chu Mo lowered his eyes to look at her and smiled softly: "What are you looking at?"
"Look at you!" Jing Yu raised her lips cunningly.
Chu Mo laughed and felt that the distance was appropriate. He gently placed Jing Xuan on the beam and wrapped her cloak around her. After he was done, he sat down beside her.
"Tell the truth." Jing Yu narrowed her eyes and looked at him fiercely.
Chu Mo scratched his head uncomfortably: "Someone recognized you just now."
Jing Yu blinked: "That's it?"
"Those people are looking at you eagerly." Chu Mo frowned and said with a sigh: "It's really annoying."
Jing Yu blinked again, smiled and moved closer to Chu Mo, so close that she could feel the hot breath he exhaled: "Chu Xiaomo, you are jealous!"
Chu Mo's cheeks flushed slightly, but he didn't hide it at all, and his voice was low and hoarse: "Yeah, I'm jealous."
Jing Yu stretched out the last syllable, with a playful look on her face: "Oh~~"
Chu Mo put his fist to his lips and coughed, trying to change the subject: "Little Princess, do you remember?"
Just now the little princess called him "Chu Xiaomo", and her expression looked just like she was at the border.
"I remember now." Jing Xuan nodded: "I remember everything now."
The little princess bent her eyebrows and looked at him with sparkling eyes. She was so cute that Chu Mo's heart moved slightly and he twirled his fingers: "Excuse me..."
"?"
She didn't wonder for long, and the next moment, Chu Mo pulled her into his arms, holding her tightly with his right arm, gently stroking her furry head with his left hand, and letting her lean on his shoulder.
The warm and soft body filled the empty chest and heart.
"Xuanxiu, I really miss you..." Chu Mo's voice trembled slightly, his back slightly bent, and he buried his face in her neck, his eyes hot: "I miss you so much..."
At this moment, the young man's joy and fear of regaining what he had lost were clearly revealed.
Chu Mo never told anyone—he was very scared.
I am afraid that after waking up from the dream, everything will be false.
He was afraid that the little princess would not remember him and all those past events would be just fantasies.
Too much fear...
It was not until he returned to Beijing and met her again at the palace gate that he saw the same love in those amber eyes, and he was completely relieved.
At that moment, he wanted to hug the person in his arms regardless of everything and feel the warmth of his loved one.
But... I can't.
The little princess didn't remember him, and even though she still loved him, she couldn't help but be frightened and became a stranger to him.
Although everything was just speculation, he didn't dare to gamble even with a 10% chance, so he could only endure all the pain. "Be good, Chu Xiaomo, be good..." Jing Yu patted his back gently and comforted him softly: "I'm sorry for making you feel bad. I'm wrong."
She couldn't imagine how desperate and sad Chu Mo would feel when he woke up from his dream and found out that everything was fake and that everyone around him had no memories.
"No." Chu Mo shook his head, "Don't blame Xiu Xiu, don't blame yourself."
"Yeah." Jing Yu coaxed the young man like coaxing a child, "I won't blame myself, and you won't be sad, okay?"
Chu Mo hummed: "I'm glad you're okay, I'm glad you're okay."
General Chu was always strong and fierce, calm and horrified, but when facing her, he protected her with extreme caution, fearing any accidents.
Jing Xuan's heart warmed up, and her small hands wrapped around his sturdy waist, gradually tightening: "Chu Xiaomo, I like you so much."
"Yeah." Chu Mo said hoarsely, "I like it very much, too."
At this moment, the thousands of flowers in the Flower Festival cannot bear the burning love.
They hugged each other quietly for a long time before separating. Jing Yu stared at Chu Mo's big hand with distinct joints, her heart beating fast. Before she could hold his hand, her little hand was wrapped in his warm big palm.
"Are you cold?" Chu Mo held her hands tightly in his palms. The cold temperature made him frown: "Why is it so cold?"
"I forgot to bring the hot water bottle." She asked Xia He to go out and play tonight, so naturally no one prepared one for her.
"Let's go get a hot water bottle first."
This sentence was said like a bandit. Jing Yu laughed and glanced at it, then his eyes paused: "There it is!"
He pointed his slender finger at the tall building in the center of the street and repeated very seriously: "It's definitely there!"
A light flashed in Chu Mo's eyes, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly: "Okay."
Hearing this, Jing Xuan gave a wicked smile as if he had succeeded.
You can get a hot water bottle there, but it has a more important use tonight.
If someone wanted to announce their lover to the public, they could go to Wanhua Tower and write down their names, and then someone would spread the names throughout the night market.
Jing Yu’s purpose is very simple - to tell everyone that General Chu Mo is my, Jing Yu’s, man!
So, what about Chu Mo?
Long before leaving the house, his mother Yu Qing told him about Wanhua Tower. Chu Mo's eyes lit up at that time, but he didn't expect that Xuanxuan also had this plan.
Wanhua Tower is very tall, and the signing location is at the very top. There are many servants waiting on the side, but there are no guests.
If you want to announce it, you still need to be very careful. If you separate in the future, won't you become a laughing stock of others?
Of course, there are also people who are shy and don’t want to climb tall buildings.
For various reasons, Chu Mo and Jing Xuan were the first couple to go up the stairs.
What's even more outrageous is that they didn't walk up from below, but flew directly in.
All the servants were dumbfounded, staring blankly at the masked couple in front of them.
Chu Mo ignored them, put Jing Yu down, and said, "Is this where we sign?"
The servant nodded repeatedly.
Jing Xuan was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect Chu Mo to know about Wanhua Tower.
He knew it, but he came anyway.
Jing Yu smiled and walked to the table happily. She took off her mask, revealing her beautiful and fair face. Her voice was soft and clear: "Jing Yu."
Servants: "Oh, Jing..."
"What?!!"
The whole room was dead silent.
The little girl smiled and repeated, "My name is Jingyu."
In an instant, the servant's hands went limp, and he tremblingly wrote the name of the little ancestor of the capital on the paper. He looked at Chu Mo with eyes that showed him dying, and thought, is this guy looking for death? How dare you be with Lord Changning...
Before she could finish thinking about the word "Princess", she saw the man take off his mask, revealing a handsome face, his peach blossom eyes raised, and he smiled and said, "My name is Chu Mo."
"!"
"!!"
"!!!"
At this moment, all the servants stopped breathing. They never expected that they would be shocked twice in just a few breaths!
The servant who wrote the name swallowed his saliva slowly. Although he recognized the handsome face, he was still blind and held on to a glimmer of hope: "Excuse me, is it the... Chu Mo of General Dingguo?"
Chu Mo: "Yes, Chu Mo Chu heard it."
Servants: “!!!!”
I'm going to die!
Did they know a secret? !
How come Princess Changning and General Chu are together? !
Will they be silenced? !
That's not right...
Everyone paused. Since the two of them came here, it meant that they wanted to tell the secret to everyone.
After making sure that they would not be silenced, the servant trembled and wrote down Chu Mo's name, and said to the person next to him: "Go."
The man walked carefully to the balcony and struck the gong hard. The deafening sound immediately spread all around.
Everyone fell silent unconsciously, waiting for the servant to announce their names.
But the servant just remained silent for a few breaths, and looked down at you with a strange look, as if he was looking down on ignorant mortals like you.
The next moment——
"The first person to climb the building - Jing Yu, Chu Mo!"
Everyone thought: These two names are pretty nice and familiar.
Hmm...sounds familiar?
Sound familiar? !
Aren’t these Princess Changning and General Dingguo? ! ! !
There was silence below, as if time had stopped, and no one spoke for a long time.
Jing Xuan was surprised and walked to the balcony: "That's it?"
"Don't worry, give them some time to adapt."
The servant was so upset that he almost wanted to cry, and thought to himself: General, you are quite considerate.
Only after seeing the two people with their own eyes did the people below dare to believe their ears.
After the messenger in the distance confirmed it, he struck the gong and shouted loudly: "The first person to climb the tower is Jing Yu, Chu Mo!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the people on his side fell silent again.
After everyone reacted, the third messenger continued: "The first person to climb the building - Jing Xuan, Chu Mo!!!"
After this happened several times, everyone in the night market knew that Princess Changning and the general had ascended the tower.
Then, the noise continued for a long time, almost overturning the entire night market and almost causing trouble in the imperial palace.
Jing Xuan lowered her eyes, very satisfied with everyone's reactions.
Chu Mo held her small hand as cold as jade, bent down slightly, put his hand close to her fair and delicate ear, and lowered his voice——
"I like you, and that's a secret I want to make public."
