Tong Cheng'er only wanted one, but Yinzhen took a fancy to the little tiger lantern next to the rabbit.
So he asked Su Peisheng to take down the riddle under the little tiger.
"Draw it as a circle, write it as a square; it's warm when you have it, and cold when you don't."
"Guess a single character."
This was easy for Yinzhen, who blurted out, "The 'sun' in 'sun, moon, and stars,' is that correct?"

That's really strange.
Yinzhen didn't take it to heart. On the contrary, he felt it was not bad. The two of them had always gotten along well and harmoniously before, but the feeling was different.
