C79part2 Chapter 79 Lantern Festival(part 2)

When he returned to the Prince’s Mansion, Wu Ze helped him off the carriage.

Arriving at the gate of the Haoyue Courtyard, he waved Wu Ze down, barely managing to steady himself, and led Xie Zhen to the hall.

After the hall was the inner room.

At the house of the Duke Dingguo’s Mansion, she had initially kept Yan Yu from sleeping with her, letting him sleep outside on the Arhat Bed. He always crawled into her bed in the middle of the night and slept through the night. When he returned to the Prince’s mansion, he naturally refused to let her sleep in the side room. He brought her pillow from the side room and forced her to sleep in the same bed with him.

In the beginning, she had no qualms about going to sleep. After all, it had been so long that there was no way she could drag it out.

However, Yan Yu didn’t sleep with her as she had thought. He just hugged her at night and didn’t do anything else.

She wondered and was glad.

Before she got married, she heard from the mammy that it hurt to do something like that …

While she was still lost in her thoughts, Yan Yu had already covered her with his hands and was chewing on her face.

She let out a whimper of pain.

He smelled of wine and his body was hot, and every time he kissed her she felt as if it were on fire. The more he kissed, the harder it got to stop. She thought they were going to get together tonight, but he just kissed her on the neck and nibbled, finally he breathed heavily and held her and said in a hoarse voice, “Sleep.”

“…”

How can I sleep like this?

His body was on the verge of burning up!

She looked down carefully at his expression, and saw that he was only closing his eyes tightly, as if he was enduring a great deal of hardship. She didn’t understand the ways of men and women, but she had previously promised him that she would get together with him after she reached the age of fifteen. She thought he was thinking for her sake and thought she was afraid, so she reached out to scratch the back of his hand, “Big brother Xiaoyu …”

Yan Yu acknowledged with a grunt, but it was hoarse and heavy.

She looked at his long eyelashes, feeling really embarrassed to open her mouth. She bit her lip and hesitated again and again. “Actually, I’m still a little afraid …”

He didn’t say anything.

She continued, “But …However…

He said, “But what?”

“If you were a little tender…” she said in a low voice, her face red and bleeding all the way up to her ears. “Just …”

These were probably the most beautiful words in the world. Yan Yu’s entire body softened when he heard them. The emotions that he had suppressed with great difficulty were ignited in an instant by her. He gnashed his teeth, wishing he could eat her alive. His arm tightened around her, and he said bitterly, “Xie Zhen, You little bastard!”

She said it like that. Why did he call her that?

Thus, she puffed out her cheeks and turned around. “I’m not a little bastard.”

“I don’t know when I’ll be back,” he said finally, biting her earlobe. “How to deal with if we’re get together and than you’re pregnant?”

Xie Zhen couldn’t bear his bite on her ear and covered it with hand. “Then give birth.”

After a long silence, he said, “I want to stay by your side.”

She blushed again, thinking how far he could go without thinking too much.

“Will you be gone long?”

He said, “At least a year or two.”

“Oh,” she said in the dark.

He was worried. Before he left, he began to warn her, “Don’t forget me.”

“I’ll try.”

He gritted his teeth in anger and finally pressed her under his body to give her another fierce kiss. The little girl’s hair was in disarray under his body, and her watery eyes made his blood boil. He left without saying anything. He ran next door to take a bath before returning. Then, he didn’t dare to find trouble to himself anymore. He just hugged her and slept soundly.

The day quickly arrived on the day of Lantern Festival.

On the day, every family was eating the Yuanxiao, and the Sixth Prince’s Mansion was no exception.

She could eat a whole mouthful of it, and she could eat several at a time. However, Yan Yu didn’t like sweet food, so she scooped one up and brought it to his mouth, trying to coax him: “Eat one, try it, it’s delicious!”

He only took a glance at it, but he remained unmoved.

In the end, she stuffed it into her mouth and bit into it, filling her mouth with sweet filling . Her cheek was round, and he leaned forward to kiss her lips, prying open her teeth and tasting the Yuanxiao in her mouth with her.

Xie Zhen was frightened and didn’t expect to eat like this!

By the time he had finished the Yuanxiao in her mouth and even licked the filling clean, she was still in a daze.

He took a sip of tea and said, “It’s too sweet.” A pun.

“Why did you rob me of my Yuanxiao?”

He asked her, “You didn’t let me eat it?”

But I didn’t let him eat like that!

She pursed her lips and didn’t realize he had such a roguish side to him. But after thinking about it, there was nothing to be angry about. Anyway, he was childish, so she didn’t care as much about it as he did.

The biggest program of the Lantern Festival is not eating Yuanxiao, but the lantern at night.

The sun had yet to set, and the lanterns had just begun to shine. The streets were filled with all sorts of lanterns of strange shapes and colors. At this time, the young ladys came out. The most boisterous time of the year, was the 15th day of the first lunar month, the Lantern Festival. The streets were not only filled with people selling lanterns, but also with people guessing their riddles. The entire street was bustling with noise and excitement. The distant sky was filled with light and the stars were sparse. It was a grand occasion in the capital.

She wanted to go out and play, but Yan Yu said there were too many people out there and wouldn’t agree to take her out.

She seemed to hear the distant noise of the street. “We would take Wu Ze and Wu Bin?”

Yan Yu sat under the veranda. “No.”

She snorted at him, “Big Brother Xiaoyu is a bad guy!”

Unmoved, he inclined his head to accept the accusation. It wasn’t that he didn’t want her to leave, it was just that he hadn’t been safe recently … He was followed everywhere, and it would only be more dangerous to take her with him.

Xie Zhen refused to give up and rolled her eyes, “Let’s go out, shall we?” she said and kissed on his face.

He blushed and stared up at her.

She pretended not to see, kissing him from face to mouth, just like his kiss, slowly licking the corners of his mouth. “Okay?”

She nibbled at him earnestly, her soft voice humming softly.

He finally couldn’t resist and bit her on the lips. “Alright.”

She came out as she had hoped.

Outside, like a bird released from a cage, there was joy. The carriage stopped at the end of the street and they got out of it. She led him through the stalls. Her child’s heart had not left her, and she was curious to see anything, even the little Mianren by the roadside.

She asked the grandpa to make tow Mianren, just like her and Yan Yu, but she didn’t expect that he would really make two Mianren so well. The look in Mianren’s eyes was very similar to theirs.

Xie Zhen handed the Mianren of smiling woman to Yan Yu, while she holded the Mianren of wicked man said, “Brother Xiaoyu, can’t you smile?”

As she said that, she placed the man in front of him on his face. Under the light of the floral lights, she saw that they were exactly the same.

She giggled and dragged him off to the next place. “I want to eat Nest Candy!”

Yan Yu bought her a small bag.

She held the oilskin package all the way and wanted everything she saw, Yan Yu was in charge of paying for it. Furthermore, What she couldn’t finish was eaten by Yan Yu. but Nest Candy was so sweet that he wouldn’t eat it no matter what. She fed it to him herself, smiling, and asked, “Is it good?”

Yan Yu pursed his lips and looked at her without saying anything.

She was about to leave when he stopped her and wiped the sugar from her lips with his thumb. “Why do you eat so much?”

She blinked her big eyes and said, “All right?”

He stayed for a while longer before letting out an “En, Alright.”

On her left hand was a stall selling lanterns, on top of which hung many exquisite lanterns. Her eyes were drawn to the two prettiest lanterns in the stall. She picked out two of the best ones, then handed them to Yan Yu and said generously, “This is for you.”

Yan Yu was still eating the leftover bag of Nest Candy. He asked casually, “Why did you buy a rabbit lantern?”

“Lool like you.”

What did he look like, a man of seven feet, like a rabbit?

She continued, “. “If you’re in a hurry, your eyes will turn red.”

Instead, he handed the lantern to Wu Ze and led her back to the lake with one hand. It was the busiest place, and the shore trees were full of riddles, fireworks, and river lamps. Both sides as bright as the day, many lovers meet here, speaking out their love each other.

There were many river lantern floating on the surface of the lake. The spots of fire were like stars, adorning the calm surface of the lake. It was like a galaxy, with two side of it were Niulang and Zhinv.

Yan Yu handed her the river lantern Wu Ze had bought. She happily led him to the lake, lit the candle, and gently pushed it towards the center of the lake.

When the river lantern had drifted away, she turned to him and asked, “Brother Xiaoyu, what do you think I wish for?”

Her eyes were bright.

He looked at her.

She leaned close to his ear and said in a very soft voice, as if she was whispering, “I hope that big brother Xiaoyu can return safely.”

His heart skipped a beat.

This fool, does she not know that speaking out the wish is useless?
