Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Su Binglan blinked and feigned innocence, not wanting to expose herself. Still, she suspected Luo Jin’an had already caught her.
She remembered using Soul Powers to summon lightning and heavy rain in the middle of the night. Immediately after making it rain, she saw Luo Jin’an. However, she wondered whether or not he had seen her changing the weather.
After all, Luo Jin’an said nothing that night and seemed as if he did not know what Su Binglan had done.
Su Binglan looked at her husband, asking, “Why are you looking at me like that?”
Luo Jin’an revealed a half-smile as he replied, “What do you think?”
Su Binglan felt he already knew what she had done. “How would I know if you don’t tell me?”
Luo Jin’an sighed as he looked into his wife’s eyes. He knew she would feign ignorance, so he did not pry, only asking, “You look tired.”
Indeed, Su Binglan grew slightly tired since she had just used Soul Powers to alter the weather. Although she needed to rest and recover her spiritual energy, she did not admit it because everyone looked forward to visiting the town.
She shook her head, saying, “I’m not tired. I want to visit the town and light lanterns too. I also want you to enjoy the festive atmosphere. Tenghe Town must be lively tonight.”
Luo Jin’an never felt such a festive atmosphere in the past because he was always guarding the border. Therefore, Su Binglan wanted him to experience the Lantern Festival fully.
Since the weather had improved, the family took the carriage to the town. The villagers also took their children to Tenghe Town by oxcart. Although it was cold outside, everyone was excited to visit the town.
The Su family wore down jackets and scarves before heading to Tenghe Town. The Su family sat in the carriage, where it was warmer. After arriving in town, the family instantly felt the festive atmosphere.
Many people had set up their stalls in Tenghe Town. Some stalls sold lanterns, others sold food, and the rest sold small toys. The trees around the river had lanterns illuminating the area, making it seem like daytime.
People also came to shop and mingle. Everyone brought their children as laughter filled the air. Tenghe Town was bustling with activity.
Ye Feiran had witnessed such festivities in the South. However, she was never in the mood for shopping at that time. Perhaps she felt her family’s burden on her shoulders or because she felt lonely.
But now, she felt happier because she had Su Wenwu beside her. Su Wenwu gave Ye Feiran a sense of warmth and ease. She thought that was what it felt like to be beside someone she adored.
The lights from the lanterns shined down on her, making her glow.
Shen Qiuhua and Su Binglan arranged for the family to shop in different places, so Su Wenwu and Ye Feiran were alone. Su Wenwu did not notice it because all his attention was on Ye Feiran.
He thought she looked good tonight, almost like a girl would. When he realized it, he became embarrassed to look at her. He felt his heart race whenever he looked at her.
It was an unfamiliar feeling to Su Wenwu, causing his thoughts to jumble. Ye
Feiran looked at him and felt something was amiss, “Wenwu, what’s wrong? Do you not like it here?”
“N-No, that’s not it…” Su Wenwu said somewhat incoherently. He feared Ye Feiran would misunderstand, so he asked, “Do you like it here?”
“Of course. 1 feel good with you beside me,” Ye Feiran replied.
She felt everything was perfect as long as she was with the person she cared about most.
Su Wenwu did not know what to say, but he felt similar to Ye Feiran. He said,
“l feel good with you beside me, too.”
The two chatted as they walked, but Ye Feiran discovered something a while later. She was attentive and noticed Su Wenwu blushing. She smiled lightly, asking, “Wenwu, are you afraid to look at me?”
“N-No, why would I be?”
“Then look at me.’
Su Wenwu could only oblige. He felt his body heating up when he looked at Ye Feiran, but he did not know why. Su Wenwu said, “l think I might be sick. My heartbeat is off. I’ll get Wenxiu to give me a checkup when we get home later.”
He palmed his chest and felt his racing heartbeat.
Ye Feiran laughed when she heard his words. Her expression softened as she smiled, stunning Su Wenwu. He had never seen her laughing so happily. Ye Feiran was happy because she understood Su Wenwu’s feelings.
However, she knew he was oblivious at times and slow to react. Since that was the case, Ye Feiran was not in a hurry to explain anything. She only knew Su Wenwu cared for her.
Even though he did not know Ye Feiran had disguised herself as a man, the former kept her in his heart. Suddenly, Ye Feiran became excited to shop, saying, “Come on, let’s buy lanterns and put them up together.”
Su Wenwu nodded. “Okay.”
Su Binglan grew relieved as she discreetly looked at the two from afar. “It looks like we’ll have a new sister-in-law soon. I’m pleased about that.”
She turned to her husband and smiled. “Let’s go and light lanterns. Which one would you like? I want to buy you one.”
She realized she had not bought any gifts for her husband. Moreover, he never said he wanted one. Su Binglan only realized it when she saw Ye Feiran buying Su Wenwu a gift.
“Your presence is already a gift,” Luo Jin’an said, “l don’t need another.”
Although it was a straightforward answer, it moved Su Binglan because she knew he was sincere. Su Binglan agreed but insisted, ” I want to buy something for you. Come on, let’s look around.”
She pulled Luo Jin’an toward the stalls as she spoke.
Luo Jin’an looked at his wife, holding his hand. He smiled as he tightened his grip around her hand.
Su Binglan felt the warmth of his palm and looked at him. She was as excited as a child, with a sense of doting in his gaze. Luo Jin’an cared about nothing except his wife’s happiness.
Meanwhile, Su Fengmao and Shen Qiuhua stopped at a mask stall nearby. Su Fengmao was puzzled as to why he stopped after seeing the masks. Suddenly, something flashed in his mind..
