Chapter 151 Lantern Festival, Beitang Yi's Sweetheart (3)

That night, Beitang Yi did not introduce her identity to anyone, but he never kept a distance from her. Mu Lianzhi knew that he did this to protect herself, and she was surrounded by a sweet feeling of love and felt indescribable joy.

To a certain extent, he made up for the loneliness and regret deep in her heart.

"Have you chosen?"

"Hmm~"

In front of a lantern stall, Beitang Yi was making couplets and guessing lantern riddles. Mu Lianzhi picked out a miniature mandarin duck lantern and just looked at it, her eyes couldn't help but reveal sweetness.

Seeing that she liked it, Beitang Yi nodded to the shopkeeper, and took the lantern in her hand to look at it:

"Are you stupid? The most expensive ones are the hexagonal palace lanterns with hanging beads. The paintings and calligraphy on them are all works of famous artists. I saw that one of them has double-layer carvings, which is quite exquisite."

The mini one she picked out, like the rabbit, cat and dog ones, is for entertaining children.

"I love you more than any money can buy. Look at how lifelike this mandarin duck is."

Under the light, even the ripples on the water seem alive.

Mu Lianzhi didn't know how the ancients made it, but she had to admire these skills. Moreover, it was the first time she came out with him openly, and she liked the beautiful meaning of the lantern even more.

Their eyes met, and feeling her joy, Beitang Yi roughly understood her thoughts, raised his hand and stroked the back of her head:

"as long as you are happy."

He liked her purity the most. Her joy, anger, sorrow and happiness were written all over her face, and her emotions came and went quickly.

Just as he was about to take the lantern and hold it for her, Mu Lianzhi suddenly turned around and rushed forward a few steps, startling Beitang Yi:

"Zhi...Xin'er, what's wrong?"

After turning back and forth several times, Mu Lianzhi's brows were still tightly knitted:

"Do you feel like anyone is watching us?"

In her field of vision, there were crowds of men and women. She fixed her eyes several times, but still couldn't catch sight of any familiar figures. However, that familiar, strange feeling filled her heart, extremely strong.

Weird.

It was barely acceptable in front of the Marquis' Mansion before, but today she changed her clothes and didn't even show her face, so why did she still have this feeling?

Mu Lianzhi was puzzled, and Beitang Yi was even more frightened. He turned sideways and stood behind her, half-circling and half-protecting her in front of him before he looked around for a while.

Likewise, Beitang Yi did not find anything suspicious:

"Maybe you're a little too conspicuous to be with me. We can't stay here for long. Let's go back."

If her enemies targeted her, she would be in danger. Beitang Yi suddenly regretted bringing her out.

He made a gesture to Yingfeng and Yingbei, and he moved her to his front to protect her. Mu Lianzhi didn't think about it because her feelings were difficult to judge, and she herself couldn't tell whether they were enemies or friends.

"it is good."

As she turned around, she unconsciously looked back again, and coincidentally, she made eye contact with Chunmiao who was squeezed out in front of a small stall. Chunmiao glared at her and pointed his finger at her in surprise.

Feeling guilty, Mu Lianzhi quickly turned around and hid her face in Beitang Yi's arms.

At this time, Beitang Yi also saw Chunmiao a few steps away. He thought that Mu Lianzhi's feeling just now was about her, so he felt relieved and hugged her and walked forward.

On the other side, Leng Yun, who noticed the unusual movement and saw the situation clearly, his first reaction was to press Chunmiao's hand and hold her down at the same time.

When Chunmiao came back to her senses, the two figures were no longer in her sight. She waved her hands and stamped her feet angrily:

"Why are you stopping me? Don't you see that it's Master Beitang and--"

She didn't know where the vixen came from, and she didn't even get a clear look at what she looked like.

How could he do this?

"Fortunately, the young lady didn't come out. If she had seen me, she would have been so upset. What do you mean she wants to be alone? She only hides away when she wants to cry, especially after she got married, during the New Year and other festivals..."

Thinking of Mu Lianzhi, Chunmiao couldn't help but stamp his feet twice in anger, and finally his shoulders slumped with tears in his eyes:

"I know she doesn't want to be seen, but I thought today was different. Liar, liar, how could he do this? The young lady just came back to life, she just had a little life, he will kill her."

Chunmiao turned around and wanted to go back, but Leng Yun pulled him back.

"what are you doing?"

Chun Miao looked angry and ready to fight. Leng Yun couldn't help but rolled his eyes.

"Are you blind?"

"W-what?"

Raising his hand, Leng Yun first compared his wrist, and then whispered in her ear:

Didn’t she see that the bracelet the woman was wearing was a pure emerald green?

Is that woman their daughter?

His eyes nearly popped out of his head in shock, Chunmiao was stunned and kept shaking his head for a long time:

"No, that's impossible! Those clothes and appearance are clearly not..."

Although covered by a veil, the outline of the woman's features were still vaguely discernible. But as soon as Chunmiao said this, he stopped himself because the figure was indeed somewhat similar.

But in her perception, her own daughter was well-behaved and quiet, while that woman was visibly lively and unfussy.

Is it yes or no?

Tangled thoughts were fighting in her mind. Chun Miao bit her lips again and again, and finally she grabbed Leng Yun with her backhand:

"Let's go and take another look."

This time, Leng Yun didn't move, but rolled his eyes towards the sky again.

"Leng Yun, why do you react like this again?"

I must be laughing at her stupidity in my heart.

Chun Miao put her hands on her hips and was about to pout, but Leng Yun poked her forehead from a distance:

"You've seen pigs run even if you haven't eaten pork. Have you heard of a special skill called 'disguise'? Then use your brain to think about why she dressed like this, and why she turned around and left so quickly when she saw you?"

An idea suddenly occurred to Chun Miao, and she pouted even higher:

"She doesn't want to recognize me..."

I've been picking out gifts for her since she came out. This really hurts her feelings.

Looking at the rag doll half-tucked under her armpit, which looked very much like the young lady's favorite one when she was a child and the one made for her by her mistress, Chunmiao felt so aggrieved.

"Silly boy, she is protecting herself and us. We are from the Marquis' Mansion and we shouldn't be too familiar with Lord Beitang."

joke.

If the two of them really went over now and ruined the adults' business, wouldn't she be killed?

Hooking Chunmiao's shoulder, Leng Yun said:

"The young lady is a good person. She cares about you very much. She even told me to separate from Leng Yu and protect you. Chun Miao, actually, I envy you very much..."

As a servant, she at least followed a sincere and good master. For example, on today's Lantern Festival, no matter what her mood was or what decision she made, she never spoiled their fun. Such a master is really rare.

The next second, Chun Miao also smiled and pointed in the opposite direction:

"Then let's go over there. There are a lot of exotic goods today. Pick out a few more lip balms for the young lady. She'll like them."

On the other side, outside the crowd in front of the elevated road in the small square, Mu Lianzhi stood down——
