"These stalls are not set up for him, but for you. You should be more serious about it." An Yan reminded him.

"I don't like any of them." Li Rongsen said indifferently. He didn't take it to heart at all.

An Yan glanced at him. She naturally hoped that he would look down on her, but she couldn't give him anything. Now was a critical moment and she would have to make a decision sooner or later.

Li Rongsen also wanted to know what she was thinking, so he mustered up the courage to ask her, "An Yan, what do you think of Wen Jiaer?"

"Very good." An Yan replied.

"He likes you."

An Yan didn't say anything, but just walked slowly to the pavilion. The fireworks in the sky were still blooming brilliantly, illuminating everywhere.

Li Rongsen asked again: "Is it true that in your heart, Wen Jiaer is the best one?"

"Of course not." An Yan blurted out. She naturally had someone better than Wen Jiaer in her heart, but she would not say it. Saying it would only add to her troubles.

Li Rongsen was overjoyed and asked hurriedly, "Who is it?"

"It's me." An Yan glanced at him, chuckled, and then walked into the pavilion.

Li Rongsen was extremely disappointed. He sighed secretly, then sat down and poured her tea.

An Yan stared at the teacup without picking it up. She didn't want to drink tea. She was just thinking about what she could give Li Rongsen. She was afraid that she would have no reason to give him anything in the future.

But when she thought about it carefully, she couldn't give anything.

The two people sat quietly, their eyes fixed on the things on the table, as if they were thinking about their own things.

An Yan suddenly said: "I should go back and rest. I'm a little sleepy."

"Okay, I'll take you home." Li Rongsen also stood up with her.

We didn't say anything along the way.

The shadows of the two people occasionally separate and occasionally overlap.

Li Rongsen did not walk side by side with An Yan, but walked behind her, looking at her slender back, and called out as he walked into her yard, "Little friend."

An Yan turned to look at him, and this voice reminded her of their first meeting.

Li Rongsen said again: "Little friend, where do you want to go?"

"Wancaotang." This was the first sentence An Yan said to him.

"Wancaotang closes at 7pm."

"Yeah, I know." An Yan replied with a chuckle, and then said, "But you can take me through the back door."

Li Rongsen also laughed.

The two people under the moonlight are so familiar, yet so far apart.

An Yan turned around, pushed the door open, and closed it, leaning her back against the door. She could feel her body slightly tense, which reached her eyes. She felt a moist and warm feeling. She took a deep breath, bit her lip unconsciously, and strode to the bathroom to wash up.

Li Rongsen outside looked at the closed door for a long time. He waited for An Yan to tell him the truth, but she said nothing.

He thought there was no need to hide anything between them anymore.

But he also understood why she said nothing.

He also turned and left, going back to the garden. He was looking for Yan Qingqiu, and when he saw that he was still throwing fireworks, he immediately grabbed his arm and said, "Didn't An Yan say that you don't need to throw them anymore?"

"There's nothing to do if I don't throw it away." Yan Qingqiu was in a depressed mood. He didn't know what he was sad about, but he just couldn't be happy.

Li Rongsen sat down beside him and threw fireworks into the sky with him, saying, "It seems that everything is like these fireworks, which will eventually fade away."

"Don't say such sad words. People should be open-minded. The more you think, the more unbearable it will be for you." Yan Qingqiu was rarely sad.

Li Rongsen asked him: "What are you sad about?"

"I can't get the love I want." Yan Qingqiu lowered his eyes and said softly.

These four words almost defeated Li Rongsen, and he grabbed Rose Crystal's hand and clenched it into a fist.

Yan Qingqiu threw another firework into the air. He looked up and said, "Let's finish the wife-hunting meeting in the next two days. I'm tired. It's too tiring to act like a woman, not to mention those crazy people."

"Well, let's finish it early." Li Rongsen nodded.

"Hey, where is An Yan?" Yan Qingqiu suddenly asked him.

"She went back to her room to rest and will be back tomorrow. She said she wanted to go shopping with Wen Jiaer." Li Rongsen told him everything.

"Aren't you going with us?" Yan Qingqiu asked.

"No." Li Rongsen lowered his eyes.

"Normally he's like a follower, afraid that they'll get together alone, but today he's changed and he won't follow them."

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

"What's the point of following you?" Li Rongsen asked him back.

Yan Qingqiu threw another firework into the air, and then said, "Why can't everything go smoothly for a person?"

"I don't know. Maybe this is one of the joys of being a human being."

"What kind of argument is this? It sounds really weird." Yan Qingqiu laughed. He threw two more fireworks into the air, which exploded beautifully.

"As a human being, pain is also a kind of emotion. Without pain, how can there be happiness?" Li Rongsen explained to Yan Qingqiu calmly, and then said, "Only after experiencing pain can you know the value of happiness. Only after experiencing regret can you know how to cherish it."

Yan Qingqiu sighed softly, then stood up, only to find that both legs were numb and he could barely stand. Fortunately, Li Rongsen supported him and said, "Let's go back and rest. We should finish the work in the next two days so that we can report back."

Yan Qingqiu nodded and went back with Li Rongsen.

The next day, the morning light shone into the room and An Yan got up a little late.

After she finished washing up, she opened the door and saw the old man serving breakfast. He said, "Mr. Li and Yan Qingqiu can't come to have breakfast with the city lord. They are already busy in front. They said they want to recruit two hundred women today."

"Oh." An Yan nodded slightly, thinking that it was a good thing that Li Rongsen was so proactive, so she sat down to eat breakfast, then picked up her bag and prepared to leave.

But Yan Qingqiu strode over and said, "An Yan, An Yan, have you left?"

"What are you doing?" An Yan came out from the inner room and saw Yan Qingqiu still dressed in men's clothes. She asked him, "Why, don't you need to act today?"

"I'm relaxed today. I'll just stand aside and watch. It's all Li Rongsen who's busy." Yan Qingqiu said with a smile.

"It's good that you came. I have something to give you, but don't say it's from me." An Yan said as she took out a small box and handed it over.

Yan Qingqiu took it with both hands, opened the box and saw a small pearl inside, emitting a purple luster. He asked, "Did you refine this?"

"If you let him take it, it can greatly increase his internal energy. It will be beneficial." An Yan told him.

"This is your own internal strength, right?" Yan Qingqiu asked bluntly.

"I'm just practicing it for fun. It can also be considered as an experiment to see if it works." An Yan said this on purpose. It took her thirty-nine days to perfect it, and she also put in a lot of effort last night to achieve it.

It was originally prepared for Li Rongsen, and I wanted to send him there early so that there would be no chance later.

"Oh, so you are refining it for fun. Then can you please refine another one for me, City Lord? I also want to be your experimental subject, okay?" Yan Qingqiu said this deliberately with a grin.

An Yan knew that he was teasing her, so she said, "Well, you try it first and swallow it."

Yan Qingqiu naturally refused, and he would not snatch Li Rongsen's things, so he asked, "When will you be back?"

"I'll come back when Li Rongsen has chosen the person." An Yan said and left.

Yan Qingqiu frowned, put his things away carefully, and went straight forward to find Li Rongsen.
