"It's all gone, with me by your side. Rest assured, I'm always there. Mu Zhao hugged the cold and self-confident woman in front of him distressed, he was very distressed, and his voice trembled, afraid that there was still a shadow in her heart, and his hands kept a certain distance from her waist, but his body trembled slightly.

All along, he always thought that her cold and self-contained appearance was due to her personality since childhood, but he didn't know that she had experienced such an encounter to become as cold and heartless as she is now.

"Mu Zhao, are you still willing to marry me? I mean, I heard my story. Shen Nanyan buried his head in Mu Zhao's chest and spoke calmly.

Even if he regrets it at this moment, she won't blame him, she is a woman who is not innocent, she doesn't know how many traces of that demon have been left on her body, if she doesn't let Mu Zhao know, she will marry herself in vain, that is the most unlucky thing in his life.

"Naturally." Mu Zhao, he didn't hesitate to speak.

Shen Nanyan smiled bitterly: "Don't answer so quickly, think about it again." Don't say yes because you pity me or sympathize with me. ”

Mu Zhao is an extremely gentle person, if he doesn't love her in the future, he is afraid that he will not abandon him, and he will not easily tell her and give up their relationship. But she was even more reluctant to let herself be his bondage.

Looking at the woman in front of her, obviously expecting him to give the answer she wanted, but unwilling to restrain him easily, Mu Zhao's expression was very serious, looking at the beloved woman in front of her with extremely shallow eyes, with brilliance in her eyes, it was the light she had been yearning for in her life: "What I love has always been you, it can only be you, it will only be you." It's the Shen Nanyan who unlocked me, the Miss Shen family who understands me and knows me, no matter what your past is or what your future will be, you are the woman I want to join hands with for the rest of my life. ”

Mu Zhao's eyes were full of affection, looking at himself bluntly and warmly for the first time, a trace of tears crossed the corner of Shen Nanyan's eyes, his brain was very confused, he didn't know what was going on in his head at this moment, he just looked at him in dismay: "Have you really decided?" Won't it change anymore? Won't you change your mind again? ”

Obviously, everything between the two of them has been said at this moment, and she doesn't need to have any scruples, but she is scared at this moment, he is too good and too gentle. She was afraid that she was not worthy of him, and she was afraid that she would fail him.

Obviously a very smart and calm girl, why is she like a little girl at this moment to determine his mind over and over again, Mu Zhao smiled, without the slightest impatience. Sighed softly: "Close your eyes." ”

"Ahh Shen Nanyan was inexplicable, but she still listened to his words and obediently closed her eyes.

Suddenly, a burst of blazing light lit up and shone on them, and I don't know who set off the fireworks at this moment, and the fireworks around them suddenly burst into the dark night.

On the night of the Lantern Festival, the sound of fireworks sounded.

Hearing the sound of fireworks around him, Shen Nanyan was slightly startled and wanted to open his eyes.

Suddenly, a broad, cold palm touched her eyes, and the other hand pressed the back of her head, and a moist touch came from her lips, kissing her lightly. The man's movements were gentle and considerate, for fear of hurting her.

After a kiss, Mu Zhao let go of his hand and looked at her gently, with a slight flush on his face.

Mu Zhao's gentle movements made Shen Nanyan slightly stunned, she hadn't been kissed, except for what happened when she was seven years old, only Song Heng kissed herself that day.

Because of the events of the age of seven, she has long been numb to these things, and she still does not know how to deal with them, perhaps it should be said that she has no feelings about them.

But today, Mu Zhao's shallow kiss made her numb heart beat again, and when Mu Zhao kissed her, she could clearly feel her heartbeat and be happy.

She bent her clear eyes, and her cold face showed a vivid color: "Let's get married in three months, and that day happens to be my birthday." ”

What a blessing it would be to marry a loved one with the blessings of loved ones on your birthday.

She wants to marry him, and she will only be a Mu wife for the rest of her life, making soup for him with her own hands, sewing clothes, and also wanting to connect poems and play the piano with him.

Her life was not long, and since she met him, she began to look forward to her future life.

"Good!" Mu Zhao replied softly.

He also wants to marry her as soon as possible, even if he is in an embarrassing existence in the Mu family, but for her, he is willing to do his best to separate from the Mu Mansion and find another house with her to spend the rest of his life together.

The two walked all the way along the long street, and it didn't take long for Qingyin to come back after watching the lantern festival.

The hour was not early, the lights gradually dissipated, and the three of them were about to return to their homes when the shouts of the vendors next to them came.

"Guess the lantern riddle and give the lantern, all the girls come and give it a try, if you are lucky, you may be able to take away this big lantern in Kyoto!"

Perhaps the voice was too loud, or hearing that it was the biggest lantern in Kyoto, several young ladies who were already preparing to go home stopped in front of the shop to take a look.

The behavior of four or five young ladies gathered in front of the shop was particularly eye-catching. This came and went, and the people on the street were all close to here.

Qingyin looked at the crowd in front of the shop, and was a little curious: "Miss, let's go there and have a look." ”

She was not interested in these lanterns, she was in a good mood today, and she was also interested, so she turned her head to Mu Zhao and said, "Mu Gongzi is talented, why don't you go and get that lantern for us?" ”

It was a joke, and Shen Nanyan didn't expect Mu Zhao to come down at all.

Unexpectedly, he raised his eyebrows, and his voice was warm: "I am willing to serve Miss Shen!" ”

After speaking, he took Shen Nanyan and walked to the shop. Looking at Shen Nanyan with a light smile, he secretly smiled, and followed them to the shop.

The vendor of the shop had already come up with a lantern with exquisite and unique methods and bright colors, and placed the lantern in the most conspicuous place.

It's an exaggeration to say that it's the biggest lantern in Kyoto, but this one isn't bad. At first glance, the method of light comes from the hands of connoisseurs, and the materials used to make it must have cost a lot of money.

It can be seen that this vendor has put some effort into attracting customers, and in fact, it should be so, Kyoto is no better than other small towns, and the customers here are scary, and if they casually take out a crudely made lantern, it is difficult for them to look at it. Although this lantern is not the largest in Kyoto, it is delicate and cute, and the color is beautiful, and it is a style that many young ladies of the family like.

There is only one lantern, and the riddle naturally can't be so simple, although there are nearly ten people before and after guessing the first two questions, the last riddle can't be guessed.

There are still two pieces of paper there. On the paper, it is written in small block letters, "The drunkard's intention is not in the wine", and the name of the flower is remarked at the back.

"Words come to the lips and swallow again", notes the food.

Because there are too many people who guessed the two questions correctly, the hawker increased the difficulty, and said with a smile: "I am full of talents, tonight you show your skills, the old man thinks about these few small questions I am afraid that I will not be able to show your talent, so the old man has added a mystery, as long as someone guesses the last two lantern riddles can take away this lantern." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone who was still eager to try it was instantly angry, and the last riddle was difficult to guess, not to mention that a lantern riddle was added again, isn't it embarrassing for them?

After Mu Zhao finished reading the riddles on the paper, he already had the answer in his heart, but he didn't say it immediately, but turned around and chuckled at Shen Nanyan: "I am only a shallow learner, I hope Miss Shen can answer questions for you!" ”

The two of them are already brilliant people, and for them, these lantern riddles are generally okay, but for them, they are easy to come by.

Mu Zhao's move was just to tease her, Shen Nanyan was not annoyed, looked up at the lantern riddle, and soon had an answer in his mind, and waved his hand at Qingyin: "Qingyin, come here." ”

Qingyin was closer to her, and Shen Nanyan whispered the answer in her ear.

Qingyin was still thinking hard, but after listening to Shen Nanyan's riddle, her eyes lit up, and she thought carefully that this was indeed the case. She was about to tell the mystery when a black man got ahead of her.

"The drunkard's meaning is not that the riddle of wine is narcissus, and the riddle of swallowing when the words come to his mouth is wonton."

An extremely affirmative voice sounded, instantly attracting everyone's attention.

The person who came was an extremely noble son, who was heroic and extraordinary, and knew at a glance that he was a noble son. The extravagance on the body can't be stopped no matter what.

Seeing that the one who guessed the riddle was a handsome and noble son, not only the young ladies around him stared at him, but even the vendors in the small shop couldn't stop glancing at him.

It's really rare to see a son like him with a noble spirit all over his body, if he hadn't been lucky enough to see the emperor's face, I'm afraid even he would think that the man in front of him was the son of heaven.

Don't talk about the vendors, Mu Zhao and Shen Nanyan were both attracted by the nobility of this man, but they didn't keep staring at him like the people here, and they retracted their gaze after glancing at him.

"This son, you guessed the last two lantern riddles, and this lantern is yours." The hawker traveled from south to north, saw a lot of knowledge, and tonight has attracted so many customers, seeing that the goal is achieved, he will not stay long, and after sending out the lanterns, he will start to pack his bags.

The lantern has been taken by others earlier, and Qingyin doesn't have a great idea of the lantern, and he doesn't show too many regrets.

Shen Nanyan just wanted to join in the fun, and said, "In that case, let's go back." ”

Mu Zhao nodded and said softly, "I'll send you back to the house first." ”

The three of them were about to leave, when the noble man called out to them with a lantern.

"That young lady, son, please stay!"

Mu Zhao's expression was a little surprised, and he rushed in front of Shen Nanyan and spoke: "What's the matter with this son?" ”

Somehow, he always felt that the identity of the man in front of him was not simple, and he looked at him with a touch of hostility.
