On August 15th, hundreds of lanterns were burning on Yong'an Street in Suidu, bright and winding like a river of lights on earth.
The sky was getting dark, Qing Lingyi had finished dressing up, and was waiting around, but did not see Biwei from Ji Fanzhiban. She simply knocked on Ji Fanzhi's door.
"Biwei, are you okay?"
In order to adapt in advance, Qing Lingyi even changed his title in advance.
There was silence in the room for a moment, before Ji Fanzhi stumbled and responded: "Okay... okay."
"Then come out, we have to go see the lights."
After another moment of silence, the door was slowly opened from the inside.
Qing Lingyi and the real Biwei who was following her took a look together.
Ji Fanzhi came out slowly, wearing a green dress. He was taller, and the dress was custom-made, but it fit him well. Ji Fanzhi had never had his hair cut, and his temples were slightly pulled up, and he wore beaded flowers.
However, he always has a cold face on weekdays, and there is always a youthful sharpness between his eyebrows. In order to make him look softer, today he applied a little makeup, drew on his eyebrows, and put on lipstick. At first glance, it looks quite lively and pretty.
"It's so beautiful. There's no need to be shy." Qing Lingyi comforted him with a smile.
"..." Ji Fanzhi's face turned redder.
"Let's go." Qing Lingyi turned around and walked out without putting any more pressure on him.
Ji Fanzhi took one last look at Biwei.
Biwei smiled with a crooked eyebrow: "Go, Miss Biwei."
Ji Fanzhi's cheeks turned red and he touched her finger, "Wait for me at home, Ji Guards."
It was Bi Wei's turn to be stunned.
Cheng Yang and others were waiting outside the courtyard gate.
When Qing Lingyi arrived with Ji Fanzhi, Wu Liang looked envious and sighed: "This girl is so beautiful."
Ji Fanzhi said with a cold face, "Steward Wu, see clearly who I am."
Wu Liang was even more excited when he heard this cold man's voice: "Hoho, Fanzhi, it's you! You're really good at pretending to be a woman!"
Ji Fanzhi almost greeted him with a fist.
"Okay, don't tease my Biwei." Qing Lingyi spoke up in time to stop her.
Cheng Yang didn't look at Ji Fanzhi, gently held her hand, and whispered: "I will follow you from a distance later, but for safety reasons, don't walk too fast."
Qing Lingyi nodded, "I know."
"And you."
Cheng Yang looked at Ji Fanzhi, turning a blind eye to his beauty, and said coldly: "Be careful to hold your voice when speaking, so that no one finds out. Also try to keep your head down, otherwise you will be too conspicuous."
Ji Fanzhi lowered his head and said, "Yes."
"Um?"
Ji Fanzhi cleared his throat and pinched his throat, "Yes~"
Cheng Yang was satisfied.
He shook Qing Lingyi's hand one last time and said, "There is also mother-in-law, she is already on Yong'an Street."
Qing Lingyi nodded obediently, "Okay."
The carriage was spacious, and Qing Lingyi and Ji Fanzhi sat face to face, without speaking for a long time.
At first, Qing Lingyi moved slightly and said tentatively: "Are you..."
Ji Fanzhi immediately raised his head and said, "Madam, please speak."
"Do you like Ji Guards?" Qing Lingyi asked softly.
Ji Fanzhi was stunned for a moment.
He is actually a very thin-skinned person, but unexpectedly he did not deny or evade this matter. He blushed and said "hmm".
Qing Lingyi smiled, "I guessed it right."
Ji Fanzhi looked at her carefully, "Guard Guard Ji... will you like me?"
"At least I don't hate it," Qing Lingyi said, "but I think if you really want to confirm your feelings, you should face to face and speak openly and clearly."
"But I'm afraid we won't be friends." Ji Fanzhi lowered his eyes.
"Then are you willing to say nothing and miss it for the rest of your life?"
Ji Fanzhi was startled.
"Let's go after the lantern festival. Life is short, love must be in time." Qing Lingyi said, patting the back of his hand.
Ji Fanzhi remembered this in his heart and nodded seriously.
The carriage had stopped. Qing Lingyi took back his hand and said with a smile: "Let's enjoy the lanterns next. The lanterns in Suidu are pretty good every year."
Ji Fanzhi responded and got out of the carriage.
The two walked in the sea of lights one behind the other, followed symbolically by a western guard.
On the spacious street, large and small burning lanterns were hung, and there were trading stalls on both sides. There are a lot of tourists, and children are laughing and walking happily among the crowd, leaving behind strings of joyful laughter.
Qing Lingyi stopped in front of the stall selling masks and looked at the ones on display. For the first time, she felt the keen gaze from the dark.
She calmly picked off a pink pig face and asked: "Biwei, do you still remember when you were little, you bought a lamb and I bought a piglet?"
Ji Fanzhi didn't know anything about this and cooperated: "I remember~"
Qing Lingyi then smiled and said: "Then today you wear a piglet and I wear a lamb, okay?"
Ji Fanzhi imitated Bi Wei in his memory and hummed softly.
Qing Lingyi acted coquettishly: "Okay? Please, Biwei~"
Ji Fanzhi then gave in, "Okay."
Qing Lingyi smiled happily and put on a pig face for Ji Fanzhi, while she put on a lamb mask.
dark place.
Three assassins in black were talking secretly.
"The one next to Qing Lingyi is her maid Biwei?"
"Why do you feel so tall? A maid can grow so tall?"
"It's hard to say. Aren't you a man so short?"
"What the hell do you want to fight again?!"
"Okay, you two, don't quarrel. It will delay things for a while. General Xie won't let us go easily."
"Didn't Qing Lingyi call her Biwei just now? She also looks like a girl. Besides, if we want to take action today, we still kidnap Biwei. They can't know about this, so how can they take precautions in advance? Then? It must be Biwei!"
"Everything goes according to plan!"
·
Qing Lingyi and Ji Fanzhi were walking side by side. When they passed a snack stall, someone was pouring water out. By coincidence, more than half of it was splashed on Ji Fanzhi's skirt.
The store owner hurriedly stepped forward to apologize: "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm so sorry! It was dark and I didn't see it!"
Every word and every word overlaps with Qing Lingyi's dream.
This is it.
"Girl, why don't you go inside and change your clothes?" The shopkeeper looked at Ji Fanzhi and pointed to the house behind him, "Otherwise, it will be uncomfortable if you get wet all over."
He went on to say: "How much money does this girl's dress cost today? I'll pay it!"
Qing Lingyi said at the right time: "Bi Wei, why don't you go in and change your clothes?"
Ji Fanzhi held up the soaked skirt and nodded.
The store owner apologized again and again and called to the middle-aged woman next to him, "Xiniang, take this girl to change her clothes."
"Hey, here we come."
Qing Lingyi still ordered the two guards behind him as in his dream, "Follow and watch."
"yes."
Xiniang and Ji Fanzhi went away.
The shop owner smiled and called Qing Lingyi, "And this girl, would you like something to eat?"
Qing Lingyi asked: "What do you have here?"
"Water slippery noodles, and fish soup." The store especially emphasized the latter.
Qing Lingyi was about to speak when a man's magnetic and rich voice sounded from behind him: "Bring me a bowl of fish soup."
This did not happen in the dream.
Qing Lingyi turned her head. The man was dressed in dark black, quite tall, and had a weak temperament that seemed ruthless. When he passed by her, he lowered his eyes slowly and looked at her.
She then met a pair of brown eyes.
