Yun Jiao Rong and Liu Ruo Qing could be considered to have some sort of tacit understanding. With just that look in her eyes, Yun Jiao Rong understood and only nodded at her inwardly.
"Look at the lake. There are more and more people lighting the lamps."
At the same time, Liu Ruo Qing changed the topic and attracted everyone's attention.
Yan Shuo put down his wine cup and smiled faintly: "Every year when we come here to drink, we will be able to see so many men and women putting out lanterns. But with these lanterns, will we really be able to be together forever?"
When Yan Shuo said this, he looked towards Yun Jiao Rong who was beside him.
Yun Jiao Rong did not speak, she only hung her curvy and soft eyelashes, and drank her wine in silence, ignoring the words that Yan Shuo had said.
"Whether or not I can fulfill my wish will be known only after trying."
On the other hand, Yan Jue this bachelor dog acted as if it didn't have anything to do with him. Leaning against the window, while enjoying the beautiful scene tonight, he answered Yan Shuo at the same time.
Liu Ruo Qing smiled, raised her wine cup, took a sip, and said: "The moon is bright, and people meet at dusk, on such a good day, having good wishes is always good. If we can really be together for all eternity, it won't matter if we give it a try. "
As she said that, her gaze subconsciously turned to look at, who was also looking at her. Her eyes burned with helplessness.
Although he never believed in folklore, he still wanted to give it a try in his heart. But if there was no result, wouldn't he be disappointed even earlier?
Rather than being troubled by the unknown, he might as well leave a thought in his mind.
Liu Ruo Qing had the same thoughts as Yan Yuan, so even though she said that, she did not take action.
The two of them smiled at each other in tacit understanding before retracting their gazes.
"Listening to sister-in-law's words, could it be that you two have tried?"
Yan Jue did not care about the two of them and changed the topic to Yan Yuan and Liu Ruo Qing, causing them to stiffen their faces for a moment.
"Eighth imperial brother likes to pry into the affairs of couples so why didn't you find an imperial concubine to pry into yourself?"
"Look at you, spying on others' matters. This king's matter with his own wangfei is not spying. Besides, if I were to marry a wangfei similar to my sister-in-law, wouldn't my future days be the same as yours?"
Hearing the mockery in Yan Jue's words, Liu Ruo Qing's eyes flashed, and she fiercely glared at him. "What's wrong, Eighth Brother, from the way you're speaking, are you looking down on me?"
"How dare you? Who would dare? "Sister-in-law must have some exceptional qualities to be able to teach Ninth Brother so well, so why would Eighth Brother turn his down?"
Receiving Liu Ruo Qing's warning gaze, Yan Jue immediately fawned and said.
Within the small boat, laughter could be heard frequently. It was very unpleasant.
It was just that Yan Yuan and Liu Ruo Qing's hearts were filled with their own thoughts, causing them to laugh even more heartily.
Compared to Yan Jue's carefree and unrestrained attitude, Wang Xuan Ling was a little more composed. Sitting at the table, he occasionally exchanged a few words, and although he was more jovial than before, he was no longer as high-spirited as he was in the past when he walked out of Shen Yuan's death.
Liu Ruo Qing looked at him, and thought of the Shen Qin who silently fell in love with him, and couldn't help but feel pity in her heart.
"Eighth brother, Wang Ziya, you two are the only two left without a girlfriend. You two are so old, it's about time you get married. Why don't you pick a flower lamp here and see if there's any girls who admire you two."
Liu Ruo Qing suggested jokingly. She knew that this situation was hopeless.
After all, Yan Jue and Wang Xuan Ling were not of ordinary status.
Even if they did, it wouldn't be so coincidental and coincidentally for them to pick it up.
If he really did pick it up, then that would be fate from his previous life.
Amongst the thousands of lights, he just so happened to pick up the lamp with his name written on it. That was fate.
In this life, he would need to look back five hundred times in order to pass by. Amongst all these thousands of lanterns, he had chosen his own. In this life, he would probably have to break his neck.
Liu Ruo Qing secretly sighed in her heart, when she suddenly heard Yan Jue's raised eyebrows, "This is a pretty good idea, let this king try."
Yan Jue's character carried a trace of playfulness, so, he didn't mind getting someone else's lantern.
However, Wang Xuan Ling merely shook his head with a bland smile, and said: "This is the fate of others, I cannot take it away."
"You can't put it that way. The fact that you were able to take him away means that the person who placed the lantern here is not fated to be that lover."
Yan Jue had an expression of disbelief. After he fished out a lamp, he urged Wang Xuan Ling, and said: "Don't be so pedantic, quickly go and fish one up, see if it's your name."
Wang Xuan Ling understood Yan Jue's personality, so he did not fight with him over it. Instead, he leaned over and picked up a lamp.
However, just as the tip of his finger touched the lotus lamp's petals, before he could pick it up, a flying stone hit the lamp. The lamp instantly sank from the surface of the river.
In this instant of change, the eyes that were cast towards Wang Xuan Ling on the surface of the river, shivered.
A sharp glint flashed past his eyes as he quickly looked in the direction Shi Yan had pointed towards. He saw a beautiful figure quickly disappearing into the crowd.
But even though she was escaping too quickly, Wang Xuan Ling could still clearly see it. A cold and loathing quickly flowed through her eyes.
The repulsive expression on his face suddenly tightened as well.
At the same time, the moment the stone was thrown, Liu Ruo Qing took the chance to look towards the shore. That familiar figure had now disappeared into the crowd in a flustered manner.
Shen Qin?
Liu Ruo Qing smiled, that guy was truly interested in Wang Xuan Ling, it was just that she was a little timid.
She recalled the night in Mid-Autumn, when Shen Qin stood by the river with the lotus lamp in hand, and didn't put the lamp down in the end. At that time, the name in the lamp must have been written on it.
He never thought that this girl, who had finally mustered up enough courage this time, would actually be chosen by Wang Xuan Ling amidst the vast sea of lanterns.
The fate of these two …
If it wasn't for some temporary reason, she really suspected that Wang Xuan Ling had picked it up by accident.
Shen Qin did the same, she was just a coward!
In his heart, Liu Ruo Qing retorted. When Wang Xuan Ling withdrew his finger from the river, the few people in the cabin all looked at Wang Xuan Ling with ridiculing eyes, making him look a little uncomfortable.
"It seems that elder cousin is really fond of you, but you're too embarrassed to let him know."
Other than Yun Jiao Rong, everyone present knew martial arts. They could naturally see that the person who used a stone to knock down the lamp was not unintentional, but had deliberately avoided Wang Xuan Ling seeing the name on the lamp.
