Chapter 442: The Wulin Leader’s Fiancée (58)
Su Xiangran and Ling Moqing are both people with outstanding looks. Although there are not many people participating in the lantern festival at this moment, these two people standing on the long street are still extremely eye-catching.
As the lights come on, the night of Yuncheng is illuminated by colorful lanterns, as if bringing the people visiting the lantern festival into a dream world.
The men were dressed in gorgeous clothes and looked elegant; the women were dressed in fluttering clothes and looked beautiful and charming.
They walked side by side through the bustling streets, admiring the various exquisite lanterns and talking in low voices.
As if infected by the people laughing and chatting under the lights, the couple went from talking in low voices at the beginning to chatting and laughing cheerfully.
During this period, some people wanted to chat up one of them, but before they could even open their mouths, they were scared away by the men's fierce looks.
Fei Tao followed behind these two people, yawned out of boredom, and saw that being a "burden" to these two people was not a good thing.
Glancing at her maid out of the corner of her eye, Su Xiangran turned around and said to her, "Feitao, go shopping by yourself! Just go back to the Su Mansion after you're done."
"What about you, young lady?" Fei Tao was somewhat tempted, yet still worried.
Su Xiangran didn't say anything, but just glanced at Ling Moqing over here.
Ling Moqing certainly felt the look from Su Xiangran beside him. He was very excited, but he still tried to calm down and said, "Miss Feitao, I will definitely send Miss Su back safely."
Fei Tao was about to retort when she saw the smile on her lady's face, so she had to bow and leave.
At this point, the two of them began their real Lantern Festival.
Afterwards, the two were attracted by the lanterns of various shapes and stopped to admire them from time to time.
After walking for a while, the two bought some snacks from a lighted snack stand.
"Madam, please buy some purple peach cakes!" a woman at the stall recommended enthusiastically, "This is a must-eat snack during the Yunxi Festival."
"Yes! Yes!" The man beside the woman also quickly echoed and persuaded, "It is said that this is the favorite food of the fairies in the sky. If a young couple shares one, it can make their relationship more harmonious and happy."
Ling Moqing listened carefully to their introductions, bought a purple peach cake without hesitation, then turned to them and asked, "We have just arrived in Yuncheng not long ago and are not very familiar with the place.
I wonder what other places in this lantern festival are more suitable for us to visit? "
Upon seeing this, the young merchant couple enthusiastically introduced to him several interesting and beautiful scenic spots. Ling Mo was so delighted to hear this that he readily rewarded them with several pieces of silver.
The couple who received the reward were overjoyed and expressed their gratitude repeatedly.
However, Su Xiangran on the side couldn't stand Ling Moqing's face that smiled as brightly as a flower, so she reached out and gently pinched the soft flesh on his waist.
Perhaps because they had gradually become familiar with each other, Ling Moqing did not show a painful expression this time as he did before.
"Su Su, you pinched me so hard!" After walking for a while, Ling Moqing actually started to act coquettishly towards Su Xiangran.
Su Xiangran's heart trembled when she heard this name, but she still said calmly: "Don't you always call me Miss Su? Where did the name 'Su Su' come from?"
"I just suddenly wanted to call you that." Ling Moqing didn't know why, but there was a voice in his heart telling him that this was the correct way to address Su Xiangran, "Don't call me Master Ling anymore, just call me Wu Wan!"
"Is this your nickname?" Su Xiangran was a little puzzled. The Ling family is a big family after all! Is the nickname of the young master of the Ling family so casual?
Ling Moqing's expression suddenly became somewhat indescribable. After a long while, he whispered, "This is my nickname. I was quite dark when I was a child."
Wuwan means Mo!
"You're not white now!" Su Xiangran blurted out when she thought of the scene when she saw him chopping meat with his bare chest.
Ling Mo listened to this, but his eyes lit up: "Su Su, now you have admitted that you saw me naked, you have to take responsibility."
I thought this guy was a silly love-brained person, but I didn’t expect that when it came to “enclosing land” to marry a wife, he would react quite quickly.
"Let's not talk about this for now. I want to ask you a question." Su Xiangran said with a sly look in her eyes, "Your nickname is Wu Wan, and your real name is Mo Qing. Is there any connection between them? You'd better not lie to me, because if you lie to me, I will know.
Once I know that you lied to me, I won't even consider what you just promised me!"
"Actually, my skin was darker when I was born!" Ling Moqing was shy but could only tell the truth, "It was as dark as ink. Later, my nickname was simply Wu Wan."
After hearing this, Su Xiangran took the folding fan from his hand, and imitated the behavior of a dandy gentleman, gently lifting Ling Moqing's chin with the handle of the fan: "Come on, smile for me."
Ling Moqing changed his usual smile, showing a few big white teeth, and said cooperatively: "Su Su, you have to be gentler to Wu Wan in the future."
After he finished speaking, both of them were stunned for a moment, then smiled at each other.
Su Xiangran handed the fan back, and Ling Moqing took the opportunity to hold her hand.
Walking in the crowd, they met a vendor selling lanterns. Someone carefully selected a lantern and gave it to the woman next to him. The woman changed her heroic behavior and responded with a shy and sweet smile.
Their eyes met again, full of affection, as if the whole world belonged to them alone.
