That low voice of “good” quietly reached Lu Mingyu’s ears.
Lu Mingyu smiled slightly, took the initiative to hold Li Jing’s hand, and walked forward slowly. Just like all the young men and women invited to go together in the city, they were intimate and casual.
Li Jing bought a beauty lamp for Lu Mingyu.
This beauty lamp was also quite interesting. The painting is not a boudoir lady, but a heroic girl holding a sword. There is quite a bit of heroism between her eyebrows and eyes.
Li Jing liked it very much and wanted to buy it immediately.
There was another interesting thing to say.
Li Jing thought Xiao Yuan was an eyesore and sent Xiao Yuan away.
As a prince, he never had the habit of carrying money. He opened his mouth to buy a beauty lantern, and the vendor enthusiastically delivered the beauty lantern. Li Jingcai then realized that he was penniless.
Li Jing had no choice but to shamelessly say to Lu Mingyu, “Do you have any money on you?”
Lu Mingyu burst into laughter, took out the purse she had brought with her, and stuffed it into Li Jing’s hand.
There were some broken silvers in the purse.
Li Jing took out a piece of broken silver and gave it to the hawker. Then he took the beauty lantern and gave it to Lu Mingyu solemnly: “Xiaoyu, this is the lantern for you.”
Lu Mingyu took it with a smile.
The vendor selling lanterns thought that the two of them had gone far away, so he immediately turned around and said with a smile: “It’s really strange today. I met a freeloader. He was well-dressed and didn’t even have a penny on his body. I wanted to buy lanterns. To give it away, the girl’s family paid for it themselves. Tsk tsk! Shameless young men like this are really rare.”
Li Jing, who has a keen ear: “…”
Lu Mingyu couldn’t stop laughing with joy.
Fortunately, Li Jing was restrained and did not go back to settle the score with the hawker. He also stuffed Lu Mingyu’s purse into his sleeve and said with a serious face: “I’ll treat you to Lantern Festival later.”
Lu Mingyu couldn’t help but stretch out her hand and gently pat Li Jing’s cheek.
Li Jing raised his eyebrows, and the two looked at each other and smiled.
…
The young man was incomparably handsome, and the young girl was cool and charming.
At this time, they walked hand in hand, looked at each other, smiled, and their eyes moved. In the eyes of others, they became “a loving unmarried couple.”
Not far away, another young man and woman also went out to visit the lantern market together. By chance, they happened to see this scene.
The handsome young man in black clothes stopped subconsciously.
The charming girl beside him pursed her lips and looked at the handsome boy: “I didn’t expect to meet them by such a coincidence. Would you like to go over and say hello to them?”
This charming girl was none other than Meng Yunluo.
The handsome young man in mysterious clothes was naturally Li Hao.
Li Hao didn’t go to Meng’s house many times, but during the Lantern Festival, it was common for unmarried couples to meet and go together. Li Hao also specially invited Meng Yunluo to come out.
Li Hao didn’t talk much, but he was attentive and considerate.
Meng Yunluo felt very happy. Until this moment, the hint of sweetness suddenly turned into sourness.
Li Hao calmed down and said to Meng Yunluo: “No need. Let’s go there for a walk.”
Meng Yunluo felt awkward and opened her mouth: “The lantern market is so lively and there are so many people, so it seems that we are destined to meet each other. Let’s go and say a few words. Let’s go!”
Before Li Hao could refuse, she added, “Your Highness refuses to go. Could it be that he is still thinking about Lu Mingyu?”
Li Hao was stabbed in the painful spot and was angry. However, he was pretty dignified. He kept his face uncovered, smiled, and nodded slightly: “That’s fine.”
Then, he took the initiative to hold Meng Yunluo’s hand.
Meng Yunluo was suddenly shaken by the hand. She was shocked and ashamed and wanted to withdraw her hand.
Li Hao turned his head and smiled at her.
Meng Yunluo’s face was filled with red clouds, her heart was beating wildly, and her hands had no strength. It was soft, let Li Hao hold it, and after a few steps, he arrived in front of Li Jing and Lu Mingyu.
“What a coincidence. I met my second brother and Miss Lu here.” Li Hao looked as usual and even had a bit of a smile in his eyes.
Li Jing was also a little surprised and responded with a smile: “It’s really a coincidence. We unexpectedly came across such a big lantern market.”
Lu Mingyu glanced at him and raised the corner of her mouth slightly: “His Highness and I have been looking around for a long time, planning to go to Dingxiang Tower. My dàjiěfū[1]eldest sister’s husband has booked a private room in Dingxiang Tower, do you want to go together?”
Meng Yunluo came back to her senses at this time. Without thinking, she said: “No need. We came here to say hello, so as not to lose etiquette.”
She wanted to stab Lu Mingyu in the eye, but she had no intention of causing trouble for herself.
Lu Mingyu didn’t say much and nodded slightly. The two parties then said goodbye and left.
After walking a few steps, they encountered a group of blind thieves.
Li Jing and Lu Mingyu were dressed gorgeously, and one could tell at a glance that they were a young couple from wealthy families. There were no guards or maids around. In the eyes of the little thief, they were just two big fat sheep.
There were three people in this group of thieves, and one of them deliberately hit Li Jing. The other two took advantage of this moment and quickly approached, targeting the mutton-fat jade pendant on Li Jing’s waist and the gold-embroidered sachet tied around Lu Mingyu’s waist.
Lu Mingyu was so alert. She had already sensed something was wrong before the thief even got close.
Without saying a word, she struck the thief next to her with one palm, flew up with her leg, and kicked down the thief who was next to Li Jing, while shouting loudly: “The one in front is also an accomplice!”
This group of thieves deserved their misfortune. They thought they had caught two fat sheep, but they didn’t expect to kick an iron plate.
The thief who was hit by Lu Mingyu’s palm felt a sharp pain in his shoulder and screamed in agony.
The thief who was kicked to the ground was in terrible pain and screamed repeatedly.
Li Jing also reacted very quickly. He quickly chased after the thief and held him back as he tried to escape. With three punches and two kicks, he suppressed the thief until he screamed in agony.
Such a movement immediately attracted everyone around, and they quickly formed a group.
“This girl is really skilled!”
“Isn’t it? She moved so fast that I didn’t even see them clearly, and these two thieves were kicked over.”
“That young man’s skills are pretty good… Wait, then The thief has a knife in his hand! Young master, be careful!”
The dog will jump over the wall when it gets anxious. The thief had a dagger hidden in his arms. He was beaten so hard that he couldn’t resist. He gritted his teeth and took out the dagger.
The sharp blade stabbed over without hesitation.
Li Jing reacted quickly and dodged in time. The dagger missed his shoulder, but narrowly missed him, and a small piece of cloth fell lightly.
Lu Mingyu’s face turned cold, and he flew towards him. She smashed the beauty lamp in her hand on his head, making the thief dizzy. Before the thief could recover, he was kicked in the stomach again, flew backward for a few steps, and fell heavily to the ground.
What a “Heroes Save Beauty” episode!
Everyone looked at it strangely and excitedly.
Li Hao, who had already walked some distance, suddenly turned around when he heard something wrong. For a moment, he forgot to hold Meng Yunluo’s hand.
Meng Yunluo, whose steps were light and soft, was suddenly pulled around in a circle. She stumbled and almost fell down.
Meng Yunluo: “…”
