When the four of them were strolling around with great interest, they suddenly heard a noise coming from the side.

"Don't run away, give it back to me!" A peasant woman cried and grabbed a young man, "Catch the thief, catch the thief!"

"Are you sick? Let me go!"

The young man kicked the peasant woman away, squeezed through the crowd and fled in one direction.

Many kind-hearted people immediately chased after him, and others followed to watch the fun.

But Chu Weiyue narrowed her eyes slightly and fixed her gaze on a woman in a black dress. She had just chuckled disdainfully and touched her chest, clearly trying to check her purse.

She and the young man had a red rope of similar style wrapped around their wrists.

Chu Weiyue was almost certain that they were cooperating with each other to focus attention on the man, and then they made a mistake when they failed to find him, while the person who actually stole the purse had already escaped...

So, Chu Weiyue strode towards the woman. Wen Jingchi had already seen through the mystery and followed her to chase the woman.

The woman took a few steps and realized that the situation was not right, so she tried to run away, but was knocked to the ground by Chu Weiyue.

The woman bit Chu Weiyue's hand hard, stood up and ran away.

She was so fast that Chu Weiyue couldn't catch up with her at all. However, Wen Jingchi grabbed the woman's clothes in a moment and pressed her to the ground.

"It's indecent, it's indecent..." The woman screamed at the top of her lungs.

"With your looks, who would molest you? The thief is the one who called for help first!" With a disdainful snort, Chu Weiyue quickly took out the purse from her chest and threw it into the arms of the peasant woman who had just thrown the money.

The peasant woman was stunned for a moment, then she immediately understood what was going on. She bowed to Chu Weiyue and Wen Jingchi with tears of gratitude.

"Thank you so much, you two. You two are really good people! This money is for my old man's medical treatment. If I lose it, I will die. Thank you, you two..."

After kneeling on the ground and kowtowed to them, the peasant woman hurried away to get medicine.

A constable happened to come nearby and handed the female thief over to them to take away.

The people did not know the identities of Chu Weiyue and Wen Jingchi, and immediately cheered and applauded.

"You two are so kind-hearted, you will definitely have many children and grandchildren."

"Yes, God blesses good people, you will surely grow old together and have many children and grandchildren."

…

These people didn't understand the situation and were directly misled by the peasant woman, and they all sent their blessings.

Chu Weiyue raised his head in satisfaction and accepted everything. However, Wen Jingchi standing next to him had a rather unpleasant expression on his face.

At this moment, Song Qiuchang and Shen Mubai also caught up.

The people soon dispersed. Song Qiuchang took Chu Weiyue's arm and said, "You run really fast!"

Chu Weiyue smiled embarrassedly and planned to go to the front with her to continue shopping.

Shen Mubai raised his eyebrows slightly and blocked their way: "Why are you two girls in such a hurry to leave? Since meeting each other is fate, why don't we go to light lanterns together? This way, we will live up to this rare festival!"

His eyes kept falling on Song Qiuchang intentionally or unintentionally, and he obviously had a liking for her.

Looking at Chu Weiyue and Wen Jingchi again, it was obvious that they were trying to bring them together.

"Of course, but I don't know what the prince thinks?" Song Qiuchang also wanted to bring the two together, and immediately set her eyes on Wen Jingchi.

The other three were willing, and if Wen Jingchi was the only one who didn't go, it would seem a bit out of place.

With no other choice, he could only agree.

Shen Mubai stood directly next to Song Qiuchang and chatted with her enthusiastically. Chu Weiyue and Wen Jingchi could only walk together. The four of them looked like two pairs of lovers traveling together.

Seeing Wen Jingchi's ugly face, Chu Weiyue immediately moved closer to him. He was like being splashed with mud, and subconsciously dodged to the side.

Chu Weiyue found it interesting and was determined to make trouble for him. Wen Jingchi's face did not look good the whole time!

Arriving at the stall selling lanterns, Chu Weiyue fell in love with a goldfish-shaped lantern at first sight. The goldfish was beautifully crafted, with a hint of red on it, which resembled a carp leaping over the dragon gate.

"Girl, if you buy this lantern from me, you will be able to make the leap and find a good husband next year!" The lantern shopkeeper teased with a bright smile.

"I love to hear that. That's what I want!" Chu Weiyue deliberately cast her gaze on Wen Jingchi's face, with a teasing look in her eyes.

With a cold snort, Wen Jingchi picked up a lantern, which happened to be exactly the same as Chu Weiyue's.

He looked down, put it on the stall and replaced it with another one.

Song Qiuchang and Shen Mubai were amused by the two and chose their favorite lanterns and wrote notes next to them.

Chu Weiyue took the brush, bit the pen handle, and quickly splashed ink on it.

“May the ones you love be safe for the rest of their lives.”

After writing these words, roll the paper into a small ball and place it in the center of the lantern.

Wen Jingchi took all of this in, and kept repeating that sentence in his mind. He began to speculate in his heart, why did this woman write such a sentence, who was the person she loved?

When she raised her eyes, she happened to meet Wen Jingchi's thoughtful gaze.

Chu Weiyue looked at him with a bright smile and said in a soft voice, "My Lord, what did you write? Let me see."

She reached out to snatch it.

Wen Jingchi's face changed, and he quickly threw the paper ball into the lantern, threw the lantern directly into the water, and released it carelessly.

Chu Weiyue snorted disdainfully. What a petty man. If she doesn’t want to look, then she doesn’t have to. She doesn’t want to know his little secret!

Afterwards, he and Song Qiuchang and Shen Mubai chose a nice place and carefully placed their lanterns there.

There was a lot of noise at a stall next to it, with the beating of drums and gongs. A man stood on a small stool and shouted loudly to the crowd.

"The lantern riddle guessing game is now officially starting. Everyone, young or old, male or female, can guess the lanterns. Within a quarter of an hour, the person who guesses the most lanterns correctly will win the first prize and a lantern!"

The lantern he was talking about was not an ordinary lantern. This lantern was quite large and its exquisite workmanship was amazing.

The people were talking about it: "It is said that this lantern represents love. As long as you give this lantern to the one you love, you will live with him forever."

Listening to everyone's discussion, Chu Weiyue's eyes lit up and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his lips.

"I'll join in!" She raised her hand high and joined the crowd.

Wen Jingchi couldn't help but sneered scornfully. He wanted to see how this woman would embarrass herself.

Song Qiuchang knew Chu Weiyue's weight and wanted to persuade her not to go over and embarrass herself, but Wen Jingchi stopped her and did not allow her to go forward.

At this time, the first riddle was thrown out, and Chu Weiyue quickly said a word and answered it correctly.
