"I'm not saying that all men will be tempted by beauty, but you haven't even known me, so how do you know that I'm not a good match for you?" Lingxian's tone became more pertinent, and she lowered her head to look at Li Rongsen.

Li Rongsen was forced to look up at her, and leaned back unconsciously, then stood up again, straightened his suit a little, and said, "I am a slave of West City. No matter what happens, I will not change."

"Don't be so absolute." Lingxian looked at Li Rongsen calmly and generously, and said, "I know An Yan, and I know you, and I know you very well."

"Then you should know that you have no chance."

Lingxian chuckled. She didn't seem to care. She said to Li Rongsen, "It's a pity to be unable to get the love you want."

"What do you mean by that?"

"That's just what I said. It doesn't mean anything." Lingxian didn't want to make her words too clear. She just wanted people to guess, or at least let them imagine it.

Li Rongsen didn't hate this woman, but he didn't have any good feelings towards her either.

Lingxian said: "Our family is special. Our mission is different from others. It would be better for us to hide."

"I don't need to know why you told me this."

"No, you need to understand it well." Lingxian stopped Li Rongsen who was about to leave, and stood in front of him, saying, "You believe in reincarnation, right? Everyone has reincarnation, unless they are extraordinary, that's another matter, but most people have to experience reincarnation. Everyone will meet again because of their own obsessions. There is cause and effect here. Everyone is responsible for their own cause and effect, also called fate."

"So what?" Li Rongsen asked.

"Some people's obsession is a bondage, and it can only be resolved through reconciliation between the two parties, or by a third party taking the initiative to bear the responsibility, but he needs to bear it with his life, and then he can buy freedom for others." Lingxian smiled slightly, she believed that Li Rongsen understood.

But Li Rongsen thought he would not need it, and said, "I understand."

Lingxian did not continue the previous topic. She smiled and said to Li Rongsen: "Let me tell you what I can do. I am proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. I can also dance and play music. I can do everything."

"You can go now."

"What about you? Except cooking, can you do everything else?" Lingxian asked him, moving closer to him.

Li Rongsen turned around and moved away from her.

Lingxian was not annoyed. She just said, "I heard that you have learned Kung Fu recently. Do you want to compete with me?"

"I don't fight with women." Li Rongsen said and was about to leave the room.

But Lingxian waved his palm at him. Fortunately, Li Rongsen was alert. He immediately dodged and jumped out of the yard.

"Fight back, let me see your real skills." Lingxian said as he slapped Li Rongsen again.

An Yan, who was discussing something with Yan Qingqiu in her room, also heard the noise outside the yard. She immediately went out to see and found that Li Rongsen was retreating, while Lingxian was pressing forward step by step.

Yan Qingqiu frowned and said, "What are you doing? Why doesn't he fight back?"

"He never lays hands on women." An Yan said as she went up to stop Ling Xian and gently pushed her back.

Lingxian turned over, stood firmly on the ground, and said, "Why, you are a grown man, but you still need a woman to back you up? Why don't you fight back?"

"I don't fight with women. I've already said that." Li Rongsen said indifferently.

"Let's just treat it as a fight today. If you beat me, I'll leave. How about that?" Lingxian said.

Li Rongsen knew very well that he could not beat her. Even when he made the move just now, he was still a few points behind her.

Yan Qingqiu said, "Hey, I say you don't know the rules. If you want to join the fight, you should go and queue up. How can you cut in line here? Do you believe me, I will tell the hundreds of women behind you right away?"

Lingxian was stunned, but finally had to give up.

"Go to bed early so that you can have the strength to defeat others tomorrow." An Yan told her coldly.

"Okay, he can't escape from my grasp anyway." Lingxian went back to her room to rest confidently.

Yan Qingqiu chuckled and said to Li Rongsen, "Hey, I think she's pretty good. Why don't you like her?"

"If you like it, take it." Li Rongsen mocked him.

"I would like to like her, but she won't let me. She insists on being with you." Yan Qingqiu did this on purpose. He didn't like any of the women here.

An Yan said: "The old man said there will be a lantern festival tonight, why don't you go and watch it?"

"I'm tired of seeing it." Yan Qingqiu replied.

"I don't want to watch it either. There are people everywhere outside. Why bother joining in the fun?" Li Rongsen also said.

"Okay, I'll go by myself. I'll go back to the house and change my clothes first." An Yan said and went back to the house first.

Li Rongsen frowned, looking a little puzzled, and said, "Hey, why does she like this? I thought she didn't like it."

Yan Qingqiu blinked and said, "I don't understand either. It turns out that she likes to watch lanterns."

At this time, he saw the old man rushing in from outside. He saw Li Rongsen and Yan Qingqiu standing at the door, and saw that An Yan's door was closed. He asked hurriedly: "Why, has the city lord gone to see the lanterns?"

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

"Is there any logic behind this?" Li Rongsen asked.

"Hey, the city lord loves to watch lanterns. I hold the lantern exhibition every year just to make the city lord happy. This year it's held earlier because there are more people in the city and everyone can have fun together."

"Why didn't you tell me earlier? I didn't know about it." Li Rongsen felt that he was careless.

"What's the big deal? It's the same every year. This time I got a whole piece of lanterns and hung them all on the south side. I hope the city lord is not in the wrong place." The old man said and left.

Yan Qingqiu said to the room: "Hey, An Yan, why are you so childish? It's the same lanterns every year. What's so good about them?"

An Yan had already changed into an ancient man's outfit and came out. She said, "Who are you calling childish?"

"I'll go with you to watch the lanterns. This high-class entertainment activity can't be found anywhere else now. It's only available in our West City." Yan Qingqiu quickly changed his appearance.

Li Rongsen also said: "Wait for me for a moment, I will also change my clothes."

"If you want to go, change into women's clothes. If they find you out, there will be a traffic jam." Yan Qingqiu reminded him, thinking that this would be a good opportunity for him to experience the difficulty of dressing up as a woman.

"You two don't like me, so why are you still following me?" An Yan was a little puzzled.

"To protect you."

"Stop it." An Yan said and strode forward.

But Yan Qingqiu stopped him and said, "Would you please wait for him? We agreed to go together."

An Yan straightened her clothes and saw Li Rongsen coming out in women's clothes and a veil. She said, "That's it. I don't know how to put on makeup."

"Okay, let's go." An Yan nodded.

The three of them went into the city together.

The city is brightly lit, showing how attentive the old man is. All the streets are lined with colorful lanterns, which are dazzlingly beautiful, and fireworks can be seen blooming in the sky from time to time.

Yan Qingqiu said, "This year is different from previous years. It is indeed more lively. Look at the girls on the street. They are all beautiful." He looked at Li Rongsen again, "They are all here because of you."

"I think you've been pretending to be a woman all the time. You're so nagging." Li Rongsen sneered at him.

"Hey, you're making people angry when you talk like that. Do you think all women are gossipy? That's not right. Put An Yan in that position. Don't insult her as well." Yan Qingqiu criticized him seriously.

Li Rongsen was so angry that he wanted to beat him up.
