Chapter 669: Liu Qing and Cheng Gui (16)

Ming Shu lay in the courtyard and absorbed the essence of the sun and the moon. Leaves glistening with golden light fell softly on her face.

The whole sky was filled with golden leaves. They fell from the sky and made nice sounds when they hit each other, but…

“Are you trying to bury me?” So that you can inherit my snacks?

The golden leaves that fell on her body covered her entirely now. One golden leaf was still okay, but when lots of them landed on her, She felt as though a huge rock was pressing down on her.

The white figure on the wall quickly asked the servant girls to stop sprinkling the golden leaves and shouted, “I asked you all to sprinkle them, not pour them! Do you all not understand what I said!”

The pretty servant girl that was sprinkling the golden leaves felt embarrassed. “Lord, you were the one who said that you wanted Miss Liu to feel your sincerity…”

“Go away.”

Cheng Gui waved his hand and the two servant girls went down the wall.

Ming Shu pushed the golden leaves on her body to the ground and smiled angrily. “Lord Cheng, are you trying to kill me?”

Cheng Gui jumped down from the wall. “How can I bear to kill you?”

My knife is ready. If I can kill you, I will do it.

“Lord Cheng, it is the middle of the night now. If you are sick, you should take your medicine. Don’t go crazy, okay?” She just dreamed of drumsticks and woke up before even getting a bite.

Cheng Gui held his chest exaggeratedly. “I become crazy when I see you. Can I still be saved?”

“Commit suicide, then.”

Cheng Gui exploded. Commit suicide your head!

Calm down, calm down, don’t get angry at an idiot!

“I cannot leave you just like this.” Cheng Gui said with a serious face, “Miss Liu, are you willing to let me be crazy about you for life?”

“Not! Really!”

Ming Shu picked up her chair and went back to her room.

Pa!

Cheng Gui held onto the door and prevented her from closing it.

Ming Shu’s mouth corners twitched. You are pushing your limits! If I don’t hit you, are you planning to go to heaven!

Ming Shu pulled the door open and raised her fist at Cheng Gui…

The night sky was quiet. Golden leaves covered the ground and a white shadow lay on them as he started suspecting his life. Who told him that woman liked gold?

Who told him that!

Liars!

–

The light festival was only held for one day. For that day, there was no curfew and there would be all sorts of games and food available.

Ming Shu went for the food.

However, she didn’t go with Cheng Gui. She went with Qin Ling.

All kinds of lanterns hung above them, adorning the street with their bright colors. The people walking around were having fun and the scene was really lively.

“Qingqing, there are lantern riddles over there. Let’s go and try it out?” Qin Ling pointed to a platform not far away.

“I am not going.” Ming Shu’s gaze was on the snack stalls beside her. “You can go ahead. We will meet later at the city gate.”

Qin Ling wanted to guess the lantern riddles so she agreed. They split up. One went to find food while the other went to find the lantern riddles.

Ming Shu finished walking the streets and planned to find a restaurant to sit down. The restaurant was currently filled with people. When she went in, there were no seats left.

Ming Shu was just planning to change restaurants when the waiter rushed out hurriedly. “Miss, there is a private room on the third floor. Do you want it?”

“Yes?”

The third floor was quieter than below. The waiter led Ming Shu to the private room. He knocked on the door and confirmed Ming Shu’s suspicion that there was someone inside.

At this time, there would be people all around. Why would a good spot like this be empty?

The door opened. The pretty servant girl bowed at Ming Shu and said gently, “Miss Liu, the lord is inside.”

Ming Shu thought for a moment and went in.

The servant bowed again and left the private room, closing the door thoughtfully behind her.

In the room, the first thing she saw was a table filled with all kinds of exquisite pastries. There was a sweet fragrance coming from the pastries.

A man in white stood at the window with his hands behind his back. When he heard the sound, he slowly turned over. He looked frivolous, just like a playboy who had asked a lady out. “Miss Liu, good evening.”

“Lord Cheng, if you have anything to say, say it.” Is he planning to take revenge because I hit him yesterday night?

I am a bit scared!

Cheng Gui didn’t know what Ming Shu was thinking. “When I asked you, you said that you had a date. Hence, I could only wait here for you.”

“How do you know that I was coming here?”

“This restaurant is the most famous in town.” Of course, he asked Qin Ling and Qin Ling said that Ming Shu had been wanting to come to this restaurant for a long time.

Ming Shu, “…” Die die die.

This crazy person seems to have gotten an impressive new ability. How can I make him hate me next time?

Ming Shu’s gaze fell on the pastries on the table. Just by design, the pastries looked really good.

I want to eat them!

“Please go ahead, Miss Liu, the other dishes will be served soon.” Cheng Gui signaled for her to start. “It is my treat today.”

In front of food, Ming Shu felt that her dignity and principles were gone.

Cheng Gui saw Ming Shu sitting down and heaved a sigh of relief. Qin Ling was more useful than his lousy system.

The waiter quickly served the dishes. Cheng Gui didn’t touch his chopsticks. He just lifted his tea and drank it quietly.

He only put down his teacup after Ming Shu finished eating.

“Miss Liu, are you satisfied?

“Yes.” Ming Shu’s mood got better since her stomach was full.

“Can I ask a favor from you?”

“I will not kill people or set fires.”

“…” I am not a bandit, why would I want to kill people or set fires! What the hell is she thinking of all the time!

Cheng Gui controlled his emotions. “It is only a small matter. I just want you to take a walk with me downstairs.”

“There are so many ladies that want to accompany you, why must you look for me?” If I had the time, I would eat two more pastries.

“But they are not you.” Cheng Gui’s eyes were deep. “You can’t just finish the food and forget about it. Are you not able to do such a small thing?”

“So what if I forgot about it? Are you planning to hit me?”

F**k. Look at the way she is. I’ll feel sorry if I don’t hit her.

Cheng Gui rubbed his right wrist with his left hand and controlled the urge to hit her.

I will not hit you!

Cheng Gui leaned back and smiled casually with a hint of playfulness. “If you don’t want the entire village to know that you had designs on me, I suggest that you take a walk with me.”

I tried fair means before resorting to force. Don’t blame me for not following the rules.

Ming Shu smiled brightly. “Are you threatening me?”

“If you look at it carefully, you are the one that benefits. With my status, people in the Capital will go bankrupt in order to know me. I would prefer it if you chose the second option. That way, the worst consequence would be you taking responsibility toward me. I am very happy.”

Ming Shu stood up immediately. “Where shall we go?”

“Miss Liu, aren’t you going to be responsible for me?” Cheng Gui gave a hurt face. “Do you hate me so much?”

“Are you coming?”

Cheng Gui shrugged and guided Ming Shu downstairs. There were many people on the street. They squeezed by each other and lanterns hung over their heads. It was like a bright Milky Way.

Ming Shu walked into the crowd and her vision was blocked immediately.

If I don’t run now, when is a better time!

A hand suddenly grabbed her and Cheng Gui’s voice sounded beside her: “Miss Liu, to prevent you from running away, let me hold your hand.”

Cheng Gui had a deep impression of how Ming Shu ran away last time.

Ming Shu: “…”

This little demon is really looking for a beating. Since he wants to be beaten so badly, I will satisfy him.
