"Hey, Nangong Jue, do you think this is our first date?" Mo Yunfei tightly held Nangong Jue's arm, completely unaware of the situation.

"How can two men be considered a date?" Nangong Jue looked at Mo Yunfei doubtfully, as if he did not agree with his argument.

"Tsk, so what? A man can get married, okay?" You dull old man! Mo Yunfei curled his lips and looked at Nangong Jue with disdain. He then let go of Nangong Jue's arm and walked forward alone.

Marriage? Nangong Jue pondered over Mo Yunfei's words as he secretly calculated in his heart. It was indeed rare to find a male pet in the Southern Empire. However, there was no precedent in the Southern Empire when it came to marriage.

"Hey, Nangong Jue, I want to eat candied fruits!"

Nangong Jue raised his head and looked at the guy who was sticking to him like a tail bear, shaking his head helplessly. He could only quickly step forward and pay him the silver taels.

The peddler took the silver and left gratefully. He didn't even want a pole anymore.

"Here, carry it." Mo Yunfei threw the candied fruits to Nangong Jue without any hesitation. Then, he picked up a stick of candied fruits with one hand and chewed them with relish.

"Sigh …" Nangong Jue let out a long sigh. His stately Southern Dynasty Seventh Prince had fallen to the point of carrying candied fruits. That was the work of a peddler.

Although he thought this way, he still resigned himself to his fate and looked at Mo Yunfei who was gnawing his cheek like a hamster.

Oh, it's quite cute. Nangong Jue's lips curved into a smile.

"Here, one?"

Suddenly, a string of candied fruits appeared in front of Nangong Jue. He opened his mouth hesitantly and just as he wanted to bite the candied fruits, 'sou', the candied fruits were sucked away. He only bit the air.

"You …" Nangong Jue glared angrily at the guy that was messing with him and was about to scold him. However, looking at that thief with a sly smile, he couldn't say anything when the words were about to reach his mouth.

He stared blankly at the man in front of him, who was surrounded by sunlight, the person who was chewing on two bundles of candied fruits with a face full of satisfaction. Suddenly, he felt as if he was the only person left in front of him, as if all the hubbub and the world had been cut off, leaving only this day, this place, and this person.

"Big brother? Big brother?"

Suddenly, Nangong Jue heard someone calling out to him. He even pulled his sleeve and lowered his head. It was a group of eleven or twelve year old children holding onto a copper coin.

A row of black lines instantly appeared on Nangong Jue's forehead. He raised his head and stared at the culprit in front of him with anger. However, the culprit was still leisurely chewing his candied fruits, admiring someone's angry face that he had no choice but to endure.

"Big brother, I want a candied fruits …"

Nangong Jue once again felt the power coming from his sleeves and helplessly lowered his head. He looked at the group of children and sighed.

Mo Yunfei finished the candied fruits in his hands and also licked his lips and fingers before stuffing the lot into Nangong Jue's hands. He took the candy bar from Nangong Jue and directly handed it to the group of children.

"Come, come, come. I'll give all of you something. Take it and share with me. This big brother here will treat you guys to some food." Mo Yunfei spoke softly to the children, stroked their heads, and then pointed at Nangong Jue.

"Thank you big brother …" The group of children thanked Nangong Jue in unison, then happily carried their candied fruits and walked away.

Mo Yunfei clapped his hands and watched them leave with a smile on his face.

Mo Yunfei turned around and saw Nangong Jue staring at him with a strange expression.

"What is it? "Do I have sugar dregs on my face?" Mo Yunfei quickly wiped his face with the back of his hand.

"You … "Very strange …"

"Tsk, what's so strange about me? It's strange that you're doing well. It's nothing to be surprised about." Hearing Nangong Jue's words, Mo Yunfei threw him a pair of big round eyes and ran forward excitedly.

"This King isn't making a fuss at all!" Nangong Jue waved his sleeves and said confidently.

"Ugh …" Suddenly, he felt something in his hand. He raised his palm and looked at the wooden stick in his hand. Another row of black lines appeared on his forehead.

"Ahh, Nangong Jue, come quickly …"

Nangong Jue shifted his resentful gaze away from the lot and quickly walked up to the man who was jumping around while baring his fangs and brandishing his claws.

"What now?"

"I want this!"

Mo Yunfei pointed at a sweet stall excitedly. His fingers grabbed Nangong Jue's sleeve and shook it gently. His eyes sparkled as if they were filled with billions of stars as he looked at Nangong Jue with hope.

"Master, how much is this?"

This time, he definitely couldn't buy a stall for him. The problem was that he couldn't carry a stall across the market this time, right?

"I don't want this …" Mo Yunfei pouted in dissatisfaction and said with his cheeks puffed.

"Then what do you want?" Nangong Jue touched his forehead helplessly, as if he was coaxing an unreasonable child.

"Master, can you help knead two for me according to our appearances?" Mo Yunfei turned his head to look at the candy seller and asked with a look of longing.

"Sure." The master nodded, took out a lump of thick malt candy, and began to study the two of them as they began to pinch the sugar figurine.

Mo Yunfei pulled Nangong Jue and stood still, then he stared at the lump of malt candy with interest. The malt candy in his hands kept changing shape until it looked just like the two of them.

"Alright!" The master passed the sugar figurine in his hand to Mo Yunfei, then Mo Yunfei raised his chin and signaled Nangong Jue to pay.

Nangong Jue resigned to his fate, took out some silver and handed it over to the master who was kneading the sugar figurine.

"Here, this is for you …" Mo Yunfei handed the sugar figurine's body to Nangong Jue.

Nangong Jue frowned slightly as he looked at Mo Yunfei in dissatisfaction. He did not understand why Mo Yunfei wanted to give him his own sugar figurine.

Mo Yunfei seemed to know Nangong Jue's thoughts. He glanced at him and said, "Don't tell me you want to eat yourself?"

"En..." "True." Even though it was made of sugar, it didn't seem that big of a deal to eat it one bite at a time …

"So, eat me, I'll eat you, hehe …" Mo Yunfei spoke seriously. Then, he thought of something and chuckled.

Nangong Jue looked at Mo Yunfei strangely. He didn't know if it was his imagination, but he felt that Mo Yunfei's smile just now was a little... Eh, vulgar. Yes, that's right, vulgar. Then he took a bite of the sugar.

"Waah! You actually ate me like that. Don't you know how to wait?

Nangong Jue covered his ears awkwardly as he heard the sound of an explosion beside his ear. He looked at Mo Yunfei in confusion.

"Forget it, a fool like you won't understand …" Mo Yunfei said, holding the candy in his hand and fiercely biting down on it, making a crunching sound as he chewed.

Listening to Mo Yunfei's voice, Nangong Jue felt a little scared. It was as if he was chewed into pieces by Mo Yunfei's mouth.

"Oh, isn't this Seventh Brother? How do you have the time to come visit the market? "

Nangong Jue heard the voice and looked up expressionlessly. He frowned slightly and greeted Nangong Yu indifferently.

"Ol 'Three, why is it you?"

"Mm? Eh …" "Young Master Mo is here as well …" Nangong Yu did not seem to care about Nangong Jue's attitude. After which, he smiled and nodded towards Mo Yunfei with a wrinkled face.

"En..." "This is such a disappointment. I didn't go out to look at the calendar. This time, I've met all the people I shouldn't have met …" Mo Yunfei acted as if he did not see Nangong Yu. He scanned the surroundings and muttered in a low voice.

"You …" The veins on Nangong Yu's forehead popped out. He really wanted to teach this blabbermouth bastard a lesson or put a seal on his mouth. That way, perhaps his mouth wouldn't speak like that.

"Oh, it's Third Prince. Sorry about that, but I didn't see you. Please forgive me."

Mo Yunfei suddenly rolled his eyes and looked at Nangong Yu in surprise, greeting him excitedly.

"Sigh …" "Recently, I've seen too many dirty things. I can't even move my eyes anymore. I'm really sorry."

Nangong Yu originally wanted to say it was okay, but after hearing what Mo Yunfei said afterwards, he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Enough, Third Bro. We still have things to do, so we'll be leaving first." Nangong Jue pulled Mo Yunfei away without waiting for Nangong Yu to speak.

Nangong Yu watched as Mo Yunfei left. A trace of sadness flashed across his eyes, but it quickly disappeared.

"Puhahahahahaha …" Nangong Jue finally couldn't hold back his laughter after walking a long distance away.

"You …" Are you crazy? Mo Yunfei was originally angry, but when he saw Nangong Jue's smiling expression, he was instantly unable to shift his gaze away.

If Nangong Jue's stern and cold face gave people the feeling of the cold winter ice, then his smile was like the scorching summer sun. It was so resplendent, so eye-catching, and captivating. For a moment, Mo Yunfei was stupefied by what he saw.

Nangong Jue was still smiling, he was out of breath and feeling great. He had never seen that kind of expression on Third Bro's face before. It turned red, then purple, then green. The smile on his face was always that annoying, that he thought was close and gentle.

Speaking of which, it seemed like he had not laughed like this for a long time. Hmm, it seemed like it had been a long time.

Oh, the guy beside him is really a clown. If I have him by my side in the future, I shouldn't feel too depressed, right? Nangong Jue thought.
