Chapter 687: Golden Wind and Jade Dew Meet

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The night’s view of the Qingjiu Terrace was indeed a breathtaking sight.

On the river, small boats were scattered along the bank, their lights reflecting on the water, adding a touch of earthly warmth to the night.

On the riverbank of the Qingjiu Terrace, a row of long tables was set up, where everyone could get paper, pens, and materials, and the river lanterns were all handmade.

The tradition of releasing river lanterns during the Qiqiao Festival was a cherished custom in the imperial capital’s affluent circles.

“Wife, do you like this bunny?” Huangfu Lingyao searched through the available designs for a long time, finally finding a rabbit pattern.

He thought, ‘My wife is kind to Little Mute; she must like rabbits.’

However, unexpectedly, Liu Shimei picked a design of a big tiger and handed it to him, asking, “Lingyao, do you think this looks like Big Cat?”

Hearts connected!

Huangfu Lingyao’s eyes sparkled as he lowered his head to meet her gaze.

With just this one look, their eyes entwined, and the air seemed to be filled with a strong sweetness.

No, it was the sour taste of love!

According to the original plan, Mo’er and Lian Qiao were in charge of Shu Yutong. They had already chosen paper and materials and found a place to make river lanterns.

Here, Changge was responsible for personally protecting Liu Shimei’s safety. Watching this unique couple, her admiration for Liu Shimei was as endless as the surging river.

To fall in love with a fool and to love to such an extent—Liu Shimei’s spiritual realm was beyond the reach of ordinary people!

However…

As the direct recipient of dog food, she had already eaten her fill!

“Wife, you’re better at painting than me. Come and paint.” Huangfu Lingyao suppressed the desire to take Liu Shimei to a secluded place for some affectionate moments, and opened up the paper and ink.

The paper they chose had original patterns, but there was definitely more than one sheet with the same pattern. To make a unique river lantern, they had to rely on their own creativity.

Liu Shimei nodded, relying on the painting skills left by the original owner. She first drew a small rabbit next to the big tiger.

The combination of a fierce tiger and a gentle rabbit was particularly interesting!

Then, she added some flowers and grass.

Overall, it was ordinary.

She drew another one, adding a big tiger next to the small rabbit, and also drew flowers and grass.

The final two finished pieces looked almost the same in layout.

While she was drawing, Huangfu Lingyao was beside her, using bamboo strips to fold the boat body of the river lantern.

Don’t be fooled by his ‘low IQ, the little boy was clever when it came to this kind of handicrafts—he had to be!

By the time she finished drawing, he had already made both boat bodies. Liu Shimei was very satisfied with what her silly puppy had produced.

Surprisingly, he was particularly skillful in this aspect!

“Let’s make the lanterns.” Liu Shimei smiled, intertwining the two bamboo boat bodies and then applying glue to attach the paper to the bodies.

She worked meticulously, and in no time, the two connected river lanterns were done.

Liu Shimei thought for a moment, took a small goat-hair brush, and added a line: When the golden wind and jade dew meet, it surpasses countless encounters in the mortal world.

The small, elegant characters were exceptionally graceful.

She double-checked to ensure the lantern was sturdy and wouldn’t leak water quickly. Then she fixed the candles inside and lit them.

“All done, Lingyao, you hold it. Be careful not to burn it.” Liu Shimei looked up at her little dog.

But she saw Huangfu Lingyao’s gaze fixed on the verse, and he asked with a lowered head, “Wife, are we the golden wind and jade dew meeting? Am I the golden wind, and you are the jade dew? We slept together, and that’s how we met!”

The key was ‘surpasses countless encounters in the mortal world’!

Did she mean that the two of them together surpassed anyone else?

Thinking this way, he felt delighted in his heart.

Liu Shimei was greatly embarrassed.

In her heart, she thought, ‘It seems he has picked up quite a bit from reading during this period. He recognizes these characters. But, can we not bring up the sleeping part?’

Why did it feel a bit… suggestive coming from his mouth?

She glanced at him and said, “Are we putting the lantern down or not?”

Huangfu Lingyao immediately agreed, “Put it down!”
