Uncle Jin watched the prince spend so much time and effort on the princess's behalf and smiled with satisfaction. He was also happy for the princess to have met her true love.

Qiu Jingfan downstairs was completely speechless at this moment. He had not won since Li Xiaochen came. He was always just a little bit short. Today, the limelight of the lantern guessing game was completely snatched away by Li Xiaochen.

But what he didn't expect was that the regent of Xia country, who was feared by everyone, was actually a love-minded and henpecked man?

If other countries knew about this, the princess would become the target of public criticism and her safety would be in jeopardy. Did Li Xiaochen know about this? Did he just put Lin Yuxin in danger?

Qiu Jingfan was somewhat puzzled, so he stood up and went straight upstairs.

Li Xiaochen did not speak up to compete with those young masters and young ladies for the lantern puzzles. The people below also realized that this person was competing with them, and they also used all their skills to compete for the remaining lantern puzzles. For a while, Shiya Building was more lively than before.

Lin Yuxin supported her lower body and watched the excitement. Li Xiaochen reached out to pour tea for Lin Yuxin, handed her some snacks, and even fed her into her mouth considerately.

Uncle Jin, who was sitting opposite him, felt a little jealous. As a divorced single man, he was right in this regard!!

“Knock, knock, knock!”

There was a knock on the door. Li Xiaochen and Lin Yuxin looked at each other, and then Li Xiaochen nodded at Wang Yu.

Wang Yucai walked over and opened the door.

After opening the door, Qiu Jingfan suddenly appeared standing at the door.

"My Lord, Princess, I never thought it was really you. We are so destined to meet each other like this!"

Qiu Jingfan walked in with a familiar look on his face and sat down in an empty seat.

He poured himself a cup of tea and drank it.

"The Second Prince is really shameless and has brought honor to the Zhao Kingdom! He is so thick-skinned, are you afraid of being pulled apart?"

Lin Yuxin held up her lower body and watched Qiu Jingfan's movements. Suddenly, she pulled the corner of her mouth and said.

I had clearly seen her when I was down there just now, but now I had to meet her by chance? Ha!

Since she dumped you, don't blame her for being angry. If you fail later, can you blame her?

"…The princess is really good at joking."

Qiu Jingfan paused while drinking tea. The princess was scolding him, and she was scolding the entire Zhao State!

Moreover, it even contained a dirty word, which made Qiu Jingfan laugh and cry for a moment.

"Really? That must be a joke!"

Lin Yuxin raised her eyebrows, glanced at Qiu Jingfan, then looked away and looked at the competition below.

Qiu Jingfan felt a chill down his spine when he saw Lin Yuxin's look. He had a bad feeling about this, but he didn't know what to say.

Li Xiaochen looked at Lin Yuxin's expression just now and felt amused. He knew that this girl was trying to vent her anger, so he didn't say anything else.

During this period of time, Xinxin was tortured enough by Qiu Jingfan. She knew that he had a purpose but still did it, so she kept holding it back. Xinxin said that her pharmacy was almost completely robbed, but she still held back and did not do it.

She really felt very wronged. He had advised her before not to bear it and to beat him up if she wanted to. He would still take responsibility if anything went wrong.

As a result, this girl has always been worried and endured it everywhere.

It seems that he has figured it out today? Then he will wait and see. If Xinxin wants to play a trick on him, it will be very serious.

Li Xiaochen's hostility towards Qiu Jingfan has been reduced a lot, and he is in the mood to chat and talk about business with Qiu Jingfan.

It was almost noon, and today's lantern guessing game was over. Apart from Li Xiaochen who won one lantern and Qiu Jingfan's three, the other seven lanterns were won by other people.

"Dear guests, today's New Year's Day lantern guessing event has come to an end. The guests who win the lantern today will receive a free wishing lantern at Caixi Bridge tonight. You can go and release the lantern and make a wish!"

"We will still give lectures as usual at Shiyalou this afternoon. If you are interested, please come and support us!"

The shopkeeper finished his closing remarks and announced that today's activities would end today.

Are there any lanterns tonight? Lin Yuxin's eyes lit up, and she turned to look at Li Xiaochen without saying a word.

"Okay, I'll take you out to play tonight, okay?"

Li Xiaochen reached out and touched the tip of Lin Yuxin's nose, smiling indulgently.

"Hey, okay!"

When Lin Yuxin heard that Li Xiaochen agreed, she nodded happily.

"May I have the honor of joining you tonight?"

Lin Yuxin's happy face froze. She turned to look at Qiu Jingfan with a frown. Why was he everywhere?

"Are you sure you want to follow us?"

This time, Lin Yuxin did not refuse directly, but asked again.

"Of course!"

Qiu Jingfan saw Lin Yuxin's impatience, but what did it matter? Considering the secrets of Lin Yuxin, these were all problems.

But Qiu Jingfan is indeed an ordinary person, and no one else has such extraordinary perseverance.

"Well, just regret it when the time comes!"

Lin Yuxin nodded, looked at him meaningfully, and did not continue the topic.

Qiu Jingfan didn't notice anything wrong and thought Lin Yuxin agreed because she had no choice but to pester him.

After the few people left Shiya Building, Qiu Jingfan kept insisting on following them, saying that he had lost all his money yesterday and Lin Yuxin and the others must be responsible for his three meals a day!

Lin Yuxin instantly lost interest in continuing to have fun and went home directly.

As a result, I saw my second brother halfway through the journey. He entered the Fumanlou with a woman beside him.

Lin Yuxin's eyes lit up. Is there something wrong with second brother?

She immediately became interested and asked Li Xiaochen to send someone to send Qiu Jingfan and Uncle Jin back to the Lin Mansion first, as she had other important matters to attend to.

Li Xiaochen also saw Lin Shaoyang, and knew that Xinxin's bad temper had come back again. He suppressed the smile on his lips and asked Wang Yu to take the two of them to Lin's house first.

Qiu Jingfan was angry, and he wanted to follow, but Lin Yuxin directly stabbed him with a silver needle and made him faint, and let Wang Yu carry him away.

Uncle Jin followed Wang Yu away in amazement.

"It should have been done earlier. Just stab him to death!"

Lin Yuxin looked at the backs of the people and gritted her teeth.

"Okay, now that we've calmed down, let's go in and take a look! Maybe your second brother is really in trouble?"

Li Xiaochen immediately changed the subject, and Lin Yuxin was also instantly pulled back to the topic, as her second brother's matter was more important.

"Let's go for a walk and have a look."

Lin Yuxin was so excited that she pulled Li Xiaochen's wrist and walked towards Fumanlou.

After the two of them went in, they looked around the first floor, but there was nothing there, so Lin Yuxin and the other person walked towards the second floor with a sly look in their eyes.

They went to the Mu Ting box on the second floor to find Lin Shaoyang, but they were afraid of being recognized, so they directly asked for the box next to theirs.

As soon as Lin Yuxin entered, she leaned against the wall and lay there to eavesdrop.

Li Xiaochen found her sneaky look funny, but he didn't stop her. Instead, he considerately called Xiao Er over, ordered her favorite food, and then stayed with her.

It's already noon now, Xinxin must be hungry.

After a while, the food was served. Li Xiaochen walked over and pulled Lin Yuxin to sit down, and said lovingly:

"Eat something first. Your second brother is going to run away again. Only when you are full will you have the energy to take care of him, right?"
