In the distance, a woman in yellow clothes was walking amidst the bustling crowd. Her face was covered with a veil, and her steps were light and graceful. Even though she was amongst a myriad of people, her figure was still graceful and indescribably beautiful, and no one was able to approach her in the crowd.
The pencil in Lin Wanrong's hand fell to the ground, and his mind went blank. He had imagined the scene of their reunion countless times, but when it really came, and it happened so quickly, he was caught unprepared. He stared blankly at her side profile. Although he couldn't see her face clearly, he couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat when he saw that unfamiliar yet somewhat familiar body. "Qingxuan, is it really you?"
"What's wrong?" The Grand Mistress asked softly with the small script in her hand.
Lin Wanrong immediately snapped out of his daze. Am I stupid? Why can't I open my mouth when I see Qing Xuan? He could not care less about the two sisters in front of him and walked toward the woman, shouting, "Qing Xuan, Qing Xuan, I'm here."
The Grand Mistress tied the red lantern and secretly glanced at him. She was initially pleasantly surprised, but when she heard him call out a woman's name, she felt as if someone had hit her acupoints and stood there in a daze, unable to speak.
She had been kidnapped and rescued with Lin San, so she naturally knew who the Qing Xuan he was calling out was and that he had come to the capital for Miss Qing Xuan. Although Lin San had never mentioned this lady in detail, from his words, Xiao Yuruo could infer that this Miss Qing Xuan occupied an extremely important position in his heart. She had saved his life and was affectionate toward him, so it would not be an exaggeration to say that she was the most important person to him.
However, he had just arrived at the capital and had not even had the chance to rest. Just as he was waiting for him to release the red lantern, he met the most important person in his heart. Was this the will of the heavens? The Grand Mistress could not help but tear up when she recalled how Qin Xian 'er had severed her red line on Su Qinglian's ship. Is this my fate?
In the past, when he was in Jinling, he didn't realize it, but when he came to the capital and suddenly met this woman, Lin Wanrong suddenly realized that this Qing Xuan actually occupied such an important position in his heart that even he didn't realize it.
He shouted loudly as he walked towards the woman who resembled Qing Xuan. But the two of them were very far apart, and between them were people like water, lanterns like the tide, singing and laughing were unceasing. As soon as his loud shout left his mouth, it was drowned out by the noise, and his voice could not be heard from several zhang away.
He used all his strength to push through the crowd and kept shouting as he squeezed forward. Just now, he had pulled someone away. This mountain of people was like a spring wall that kept getting stronger and stronger, separating him and the woman from each other, making it impossible for them to get together. Even if a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal descended to the mortal world, he would not be able to do anything.
Xiao Qingxuan's long sleeves fluttered in the wind, and her footsteps were light as she walked forward without looking back. She did not do anything, but the crowd could not get close to her. In the blink of an eye, they were drowned in the crowd and could not be seen anymore.
Oh my god. Lin Wanrong was squeezed in the crowd, and his heart was burning like a ball of fire. He did not know how many times he had shouted and how many people he had squeezed through. As he watched Qing Xuan's beautiful figure disappear into the crowd, he used all the strength in his body to shout, "Qing Xuan — —" Once his voice came out, only he could hear it. After shouting for a long time, his voice was actually hoarse.
Standing in the crowded crowd, looking at the bright lanterns and the endless laughter of the crowd, he was dumbstruck. He had a feeling of disbelief, "Was it really Qingxuan that I saw just now? Did I see wrongly? I met Qing Xuan so easily? How could he lose track of her so easily? Oh my god — — "
After looking forward to seeing Qing Xuan for a long time, the surprise of seeing her again, and the sense of loss of her so close at hand, welled up in his heart at the same time. Even if he was made of iron, he would not be able to bear it. Lin Wanrong's hands were clenched tightly as she stood in the middle of the long street, facing the bustling crowd. "Ah — — Ah — —" She let out a long cry. Her hoarse voice, like a broken gong, was ear-piercing, but contained an indescribable sorrow and sorrow.
In the lantern market on the long street, the crowd was like water. Some were laughing, some were worried. Lin Wanrong was in a daze for a long time, and his heart was already cold to the bottom. Not being discouraged in the face of trouble was his strong point, but this feeling of being so close yet worlds apart, suddenly gaining and then losing, was the most heartbreaking. Even someone like him, who smiled from mouth to heart, found it hard to bear.
"Lin San, Lin San — —" As Lin Wanrong was in a daze, he suddenly heard a tender voice calling out to him. This voice was very weak in the crowd, and if it wasn't for the fact that he was close, he would not have heard it at all.
"Grand Mistress, Second Miss — —" When Lin Wanrong heard this voice, he was shocked. Aiyo, just now he was only thinking about Qing Xuan, and had forgotten about them.
He quickly looked back and saw that in the crowd not far away, Xiao Yuruo was tightly holding onto Yushuang. Her face was completely red, and she was anxiously looking in his direction. A few mischievous hoodlums were slowly approaching them. Yushuang's face was filled with fear, and Xiao Yuruo's face was filled with determination. The two sisters walked forward hand in hand, and in their hands, they were still carrying the red lantern that had not been released yet.
Motherf * cker, Lin Wanrong's heart was filled with anger. He stiffened his shoulders and squeezed his way back, and in two or three steps, he arrived beside the two sisters. When Yushuang saw him, she let out a tender cry and threw herself into his arms, unwilling to let go. The Grand Mistress clenched her teeth and did not say a word. She tightly held the lantern in her hands, unwilling to let go. The lantern had long been scattered and was on the verge of falling as the two of them ran and squeezed. Only the man and woman with the red string tied to them were still tightly clinging to each other.
"Two beautiful young ladies, which family are you from?" The few hoodlums that slowly surrounded them laughed as they approached. When the surrounding crowd saw this group of hoodlums, they quickly dispersed as if they had seen a ghost, leaving an empty space.
"Grand Mistress, are you afraid?" Lin Wanrong stood in front of the two women and expressionlessly said.
"If you don't leave, then we won't be afraid." Xiao Yuruo softly said.
"Remember, we will always be together, and we will not be separated even if we are beaten to death." Lin Wanrong suddenly remembered what he said to the two women when he got off the carriage. At that time, he was laughing and joking, and he never thought of going back on his words. Who knew that when he met Qing Xuan, he would be the first one to separate from them.
"I'm sorry, this time it's my fault." Lin Wanrong said guiltily. He had known the Grand Mistress for a long time, but this was the first time he felt ashamed.
The Grand Mistress softly said, and her face blushed. She softly said, "What should we do now? We have just arrived in the capital, so it's better not to cause trouble. "
Looking at the situation in front of him, did I want to cause trouble? It was something that wanted to provoke me. He felt guilty towards the Grand Mistress, so he bitterly smiled and said, "I will try my best."
He was in an extremely bad mood today. He looked around and picked up the two wooden sticks that were scattered on the ground. He smashed them together without any effort, and the two wooden sticks broke at the same time. He was someone who had been on the battlefield, so he did not care about these hoodlums. Under his cold gaze, a murderous glint flashed in his eyes.
The hoodlums that surrounded him were shocked. One of them, who seemed to be the leader, hurriedly said, "You, what do you want to do? We, we are from Assistant Minister Tie's residence. "
Lin Wanrong snorted and said with a murderous look, "Assistant Minister Tie of the Ministry of War? Hmph, that's great. You dogs, if it wasn't for Lord Xu telling me not to cause trouble, I would have crippled you bastards tonight. "
"Xu, Lord Xu?" The leader of the hoodlums stuttered a few times. "Which Lord Xu?"
Lin Wanrong threw the broken stick in his hand at the leader and said angrily, "How dare you? You dare to ask such a question? When Lord Xu and I were exterminating the White Lotus, who gave you dogs the right to speak? "
A person's name was like a tree's shadow. Xu Wei was the number one scholar in the world, the Emperor's most favored official, and he had personally led the extermination of the White Lotus. His reputation was flourishing, and no one in the capital could match him. Those hoodlums relied on the fact that they had people backing them and were used to doing whatever they wanted. In reality, they were people who bullied the weak and feared the strong. Seeing the murderous servant in front of them and hearing him mention Lord Xu Wei, they suddenly had a feeling that if they angered this person in front of them, they might not even know how they died.
"Hurry up and scram!" Lin Wanrong roared angrily. The hoodlums looked at each other and hurriedly ran away. The originally empty space was instantly filled with people again. It was as if the previous incident had never happened.
Second Miss looked at him and tenderness flashed through her eyes. She said, "Bad person, is what you said just now true? You really went to the battlefield with Lord Xu to kill the White Lotus? "
Lin Wanrong pulled her little hand and said with a smile, "It's fake. I lied to these guys."
"Liar, scoundrel." The Second Miss snorted and grabbed his hand, refusing to let go.
Lin Wanrong turned his head and saw that Grand Mistress was staring at the red lantern in a daze. He felt guilty and hurriedly said, "Grand Mistress, don't worry. I will definitely let this red lantern fly to the sky without any damage. Believe me."
Xiao Yuruo smiled and gently stroked the lantern in her hand. She softly said, "Just now, did you really see Miss Xiao?"
Lin Wanrong nodded. His expression darkened and he sighed. "I saw her, but she didn't see me. Life is so fickle. You meet it inadvertently, but you also lose it inadvertently. "
Grand Mistress softly comforted him. "This kind of depression is not like you in the past. Looking at it from another angle, you have just arrived in the capital and are fortunate enough to see Miss Xiao. Isn't this a good start? As long as you work hard, there will be a day when you can reunite. "
"I think so too." Lin Wanrong laughed. "Grand Mistress, if you speak so gently every day, then I will be blessed."
"Smooth talker." Grand Mistress blushed and softly said.
"Boom, boom." Fireworks danced in the distance. Amidst the fireworks, a huge twin lotus lantern slowly rose from the top of a restaurant and danced in the air. Two pink twin lotus flowers floated in the air. They were brilliant and dazzling.
A woman in fluttering yellow clothes stood on the top of the restaurant. Her skin was whiter than snow. Her beautiful eyes were focused as she looked at the blooming lotus. Suddenly, a few clear tears fell. She was like a fairy banished to the mortal world, beautiful beyond compare …
