Chapter Twenty-Three: Allure Smiles

In the fireworks and rain alley, the lights were on, Xu Zichen took Taeyeon to shuttle through all corners of Chinatown, and from time to time he could hear all kinds of exclamations from Taeyeon, "Oh, Xu Zichen, Xu Zichen, look there, there is actually a game of goldfish fishing, I want to play!

"Taeyeon, let's go play if you see something you like, but can you control your dolphin voice first, don't you see others always aiming at us, you go on like this, I'm really afraid that with your paper scum's scumbag physical strength, you will miss the fireworks display because of overconsumption, heh, what will I do with you then?" Xu Zichen reminded with a smile on his face, but the doting revealed from his eyes all showed how happy he was at the moment.

When Kim Taeyeon heard the words fireworks display, she hurriedly put down the half-eaten rock sugar gourd, and then looked at Xu Zichen with a dull face and asked, "Will there be a fireworks festival later?"

Xu Zichen raised his eyebrows and shrugged his shoulders and said, "That's what the boss said when I bought you a rock sugar gourd just now."

Kim Taeyeon nodded abruptly and said, "Ah, that's it, I'll just say, what time does the fireworks show start?" Also, this rock sugar gourd is really delicious, sweet and sour, I like it~" As soon as the words fell, I saw Taeyeon continue to eat the rock sugar gourd in her hand without any image,

Seeing this, Xu Zichen smiled helplessly and said: "Hey, I said Taeyeon, you pay attention to your image, if your current appearance is seen by fans who like you, I'm afraid it will cause a wave of earthquakes~"

"Hing~ It's okay, anyway, we have no image in the eyes of sone for a long time, they can't wait to see us pumping every day, and then raise their hands and shout: Now is the era of Chinese paper, the future is the era of Chinese paper, and it will always be the girlhood of Chinese paper!" Kim Taeyeon said with an expression of lovelessness,

"Poofhaha, shouldn't it be: It's the era of the bombardment now, the era of the bombardment in the future, and it will always be the era of the bombardment? This slogan is more appropriate to you..." Xu Zichen touched his chin and made up for it seriously, and at the same time subconsciously took a few steps back,

Sure enough, Kim Taeyeon exploded on the spot, and a vicious little eye stared at Xu Zichen and said, "You are the bombard, your whole family is a bombard!" We are so cute and so ladylike, where do we look like a bombard?"

"Well, Taeyeon, I'm afraid you feel weak when you say this. Alas, it's really hard for you, praise your own teammates with such a conscience, your courage is commendable~" Xu Zichen still continued to mend the knife very badly.

Kim Taeyeon's face was embarrassed when she heard this, and she shouted angrily: "Ah, Xu Zichen, you Xu Ba Po, there is no end to it, you always like to hold on to our black history, is it interesting? Hmph, I think how ladylike we would be when we first debuted, we were just taken crookedly, well, that's right, it's all Kim Hee-cheol's pot, it's all him, when we were still trainees, we liked to take us crazy when we had nothing to do, so we will forget the fact that we are girls..."

And Xu Zichen has been thundered by Kim Taeyeon's forcibly whitewashed explanation, and he silently felt pity for the inexplicable Kim Hee-cheol, who was lying on the gun inexplicably, with such a sister who sold him at any time, you can imagine how sad his usual life is. I couldn't help but think that I would rather offend the villain than offend the woman, otherwise the end should not be too miserable,

Thinking of his death-defying behavior just now, Xu Zichen shuddered violently, emm, now change the topic, I don't know if it's still too late?

"That's right, it's all Kim Hee-cheol's pot, he took you crookedly, that, Taeyeon, there are lantern riddles over there, are you interested in participating?"

And after Kim Taeyeon saw Xu Zichen's unnatural expression, she didn't mention how happy she was, and said with a smug smile: "Hmph, even if you know each other, this captain won't bother with you, then let's go and have a good time." After saying that, he turned around and trotted in the direction of guessing the lantern riddle.

Xu Zichen just wanted to follow, but saw her take a hurried step, and then felt that she seemed to remember something, stopped her steps, turned around gorgeously, and walked back with a light step with a great amplitude, while still shaking her little hand.

After jumping a few steps like this, Kim Taeyeon, who hadn't run far, had already stood beside her, Xu Zichen looked at her and asked suspiciously, "Why did you run back?"

I saw her stick out her tongue and wrap the slippery hair behind her ear, so she smiled embarrassedly and said, "Hehe, didn't I remember that I guessed the lantern riddle I can, I have to rely on you~"

Xu Zichen suddenly smiled: "I said, just now you ran impatiently forward, and in a blink of an eye you ran back, the feeling is to let me be your front-line soldier." Oh, please, my captain. ”

After Xu Zichen made a gesture of invitation to Taeyeon, which caused her to giggle, Xu Zichen led Kim Taeyeon to the direction of the lantern.

Soon the two walked to the lantern area, all kinds of good-looking lanterns were arranged in different corners, and in the center was a large lantern: a fairy shape, driving auspicious clouds floating in the air, holding a flower basket in her hand, the flower basket was full of colorful flowers, and the flower basket was written with the words 'Heavenly Maiden Scattered Flowers'.

On both sides of the fairy lamp, there are two colorful lions, each is two meters high, the lion has a big colored ball in its mouth, it is constantly rotating, there are many palace lanterns, lotus lanterns, etc., complement each other, compete for beauty. On both sides of the road, it is occupied by vendors selling all kinds of strange lanterns, and you can vaguely hear their shouting one after another, everything seems to be very lively.

Kim Taeyeon on the side was already shocked by the scene in front of her, touching everything and having fun, shouting in her mouth: "Tefa, it's really beautiful." ”

Xu Zichen also looked at the lantern festival with surprise while following behind Taeyeon, thinking that there were a few lamps that meant that it was already Amitabha, but he really didn't expect the organizer to be so grand, it seems that this is the so-called good is not as good as coming~

In this way, Xu Zichen and Kim Taeyeon walked in this dazzling lantern, of course, Xu Zichen did not forget to explain to Taeyeon, and suddenly there was a burst of noise from not far away, only to see that a short body who was still next to him just now had already trotted over with her little short-legged fart, and looked in with a lot of effort on her toes.

Xu Zichen shook his head amusefully when he saw this, and then followed quickly, and after opening a way for her, Xu Zichen asked the passers-by next to him, only to know that it was a group of students who were shouting with the stall owner who sold lanterns, as if it was because of lantern riddles and the like.

Kim Taeyeon on the side pulled Xu Zichen's sleeve and asked secretly: What's the matter? Xu Zichen immediately shared the news he had just inquired about with her, and after Kim Taeyeon heard it, he nodded thoughtfully, and then looked at Xu Zichen with a wicked smile and said, "Hehe, Xu Baa, it's your turn to play~" As soon as the words fell, Kim Taeyeon didn't wait for Xu Zichen to react, she raised her paw with lightning speed, and swayed straight at the stall owner, while not forgetting to shout in English: " Hey,here,I hope I can take part in this activity!”

I saw that the boss, who was still arguing with the student party just now, was stunned at first after hearing the voice, and then looked at the voice, and subconsciously directly burst out a sentence in Chinese: "You female doll, which door is it to make a scene?" Learn Chinese well first. ”

Xu Zichen, who was still thinking of staying out of the matter, heard the unceremonious attitude of this boss, and unconsciously raised his eyebrows and spoke directly: "This boss, since you are open to do business, you still can't divide people? Can't she participate if she doesn't know Chinese? How? You have learned to discriminate against foreigners after staying abroad for a long time?"

The boss was choked by Xu Zichen's face and neck was hot, and his eyes glared: "Ah, boy, don't give me a nonsense misinterpretation of what I mean, I don't mean to discriminate against others, hum, it seems that you want to stand out for this female doll? Friendly reminder to you, the group of students just now also swore to take the treasure of my town store just now, but in the end, it wasn't a slap in the face!"

"Hehe, boss, what you said really aroused my interest, I want to understand how difficult your lantern riddles are! Also, boss, do you dare to make a bet with me? If I win, I don't want your prize, just apologize to this friend of mine." How can it be, boss!" Xu Zichen looked at the boss with a firm look in his eyes and said, every word was so eloquent.

When the boss heard the gambling contract, he looked at Xu Zichen opposite with a look like a ghost, and after glancing at the girl next to him, he seemed to know something, and said with a smile: "It's good to be young, what a red face when you rush to the crown, boy, enough for you! Yes, no matter what the outcome will be, I will apologize to your friend next to you first, I was rude just now, please forgive me!" After speaking, he solemnly said to Kim Tae-yeon, "I'm sorry." ”

Kim Taeyeon was confused by the behavior of the boss in front of her, so she had to pull Xu Zichen and ask, "Hey, Xu Baa, why did I say that this boss apologized so decently? And what did you say from just now, it makes people feel very tense?"

And after Xu Zichen saw the boss apologize so sincerely, he threw the trace of unhappiness in his heart to Java, and he didn't plan to tell her about the dispute just now, so she didn't think about it again, so he shrugged his shoulders with a smile and said: "It's nothing, it's just that the boss showed off to me how difficult his lantern riddles are to guess, and what prizes are there after guessing correctly." ”

Hearing this, Kim Taeyeon directly gave Xu Zichen a roll of his eyes and said: "Cut, if you don't say it, I guessed it, seeing that the situation just now is nothing more than that boss said a few words that shouldn't be said, which made you anxious, and then you used your poisonous tongue to let the boss apologize to me! Hmph, don't really treat me as an ignorant girl, it's just that I'm too lazy to say it, after all, people just want to be a quiet beautiful woman~"

Xu Zichen was speechless for a while, and only after taking a deep breath did he speak: "Yes, yes, your boss is reasonable." Then may I ask the big guy, do you still want to guess the lantern riddle!"

Kim Taeyeon nodded violently and exclaimed, "Of course, come on, my Pikachu!"

Xu Zichen looked at her with black lines on his face, and silently thought in his heart Don't care, don't care, then walked directly to the boss and said, "Boss, where are the riddles?"

The boss smiled and pointed to the shop and said, "It's written on this lamp, and as long as you guess the three questions correctly, even if I lose, of course, which three questions are designated by me, how can it be accepted?"

After Xu Zichen nodded indifferently to indicate that there was no problem, the boss pointed to the three lights behind him and said, "Just these three, you can see for yourself." ”

Xu Zichen looked carefully at the three riddles on the lamp: the mandarin ducks are playing in the water, and the butterflies are in love with the flowers; I have thousands of kinds of tenderness, who can I be with in this life; red beans are lovesick seeds, and the previous life is planted in my heart; waiting for the fate to meet, enjoy spring, summer and autumn and winter (guess eight words) on the water and see my sweetheart, alone and alone. For the love of the rain and the rainy day, why do you see each other without words. Seeing each other is still lonely, I only love you in this life, single and single, unrequited love (guess seven words) sunny days and days, clear water into the heart (guess a word)

Xu Zichen frowned and thought for a while, then asked the boss for a pen and paper, only to see him quickly write down the answer, and then directly handed it to the boss, and the boss looked at Xu Zichen with a look of disbelief after looking at the answer in his hand and said: "You actually answered all the questions correctly? ”

"Where, where, boss, you have won the award, and we don't know each other anymore, so we have something to do, so let's leave first." Xu Zichen waved his hand modestly and finished speaking, and after giving Taeyeon a look to leave, he wanted to turn around and leave.

At the moment when Xu Zichen turned around, he heard the boss shouting "Wait" from behind, only to see him hurriedly running over with a box and stuffing it into Xu Zichen's hand, "Please accept this, you deserve it, as for how you want to deal with it, that's your problem, okay, I hope we will meet later." After saying that, he turned around directly, waved his hand at them with his back on his back, and walked straight to his shop.

"Alas, Xu Baba, open it up and see, what kind of prize it is. Taeyeon stuck her head out, desperate to know what was in the box,

Xu Zichen didn't ink, he opened it directly, and was stunned, and what was lying inside was: a Chinese knot and a concentric lock. Kim Taeyeon unconsciously asked, "What are these two? a knot and a lock, and what is the point?"

The corners of Xu Zichen's mouth rose, he smiled without saying a word, and after closing the box again, he said to Taeyeon: "Hehe, it's just a simple gift, let's go, the fireworks party is about to start, Taeyeon......"
