Chapter 228 Cheng Huaiye, I love you

Xu Anan struggled in his arms. After Yu Ruoxi left, he let her go. She wrinkled her face and said dissatisfied: "It's so boring."

He pinched her face in a funny way: "Can you go back to bed?"

Xu Anan shook his head and whispered: "No, you take me to watch the fireworks."

Where did the fireworks come from now? He thought for a while and then said: "The day after tomorrow, the first day of the first lunar month, I will take you to see it, okay?"

Xu Anan agreed, and Cheng Huai took her away. After a lot of tossing, he finally coaxed her to sleep. Cheng Huai also sat by the bed, looking at her rosy cheeks. After putting down the bed curtain, he Walked to the window.

"Master, I have a letter from the Imperial Master." Mu Qing whispered outside the door.

He opened the door and Mu Qing left after delivering the letter.

Cheng Huai also read ten lines at a glance. After reading the letter, he destroyed it under the candlelight.

Bai Songhua just wanted him to return to Beijing as soon as possible. The political situation in Beijing had been stabilized and Cheng Si could not afford to make trouble.

Cheng Huai also thought carefully. After returning to Beijing, if he continues to favor Xu An'an as always, he may arouse Bai Songhua's anger. What should he do if he wants to kill Xu An'an at all costs?
This game of chess fell into a deadlock because of Bai Songhua's return.

Three parties are closely entangled in the chess game, Xu Kangwen, Cheng Si, and his master Bai Songhua.

He couldn't see a way out.

These last fifteen days, I don't know when, became his last breathing time.

Everything turned into a sigh in his heart. He looked at the long night. Xu Anan wanted to see fireworks, so he set them all over the city for her.

The [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month is Daqi’s New Year’s Eve.

To celebrate the occasion, Xu Anan put on pomegranate red clothes, which made her look as charming as a flower.

During the Chinese New Year, there were only a few of them. In the past, they would hold a palace banquet. Because Cheng Huai's whereabouts were still unknown, no one in the capital was in the mood to hold a banquet.

But Xu Anan's place is quite lively. Jiang's mother and Qiuyue have been posting couplets, pasting door gods, hanging lanterns, pasting blessing characters, cutting window grilles, and setting off firecrackers during dinner time early in the morning.

The sound of firecrackers marks the beginning of a new year.

Tonight is to keep watch.

Yu Ruoxi went to bed early, and there were only five people left in the main room: Jiang's mother, Qiuyue, Wen Deng, Wen Luo and Xu An'an.

At about four o'clock, Wen Luo fell asleep on the table, and Wen Deng fell asleep too.

Seeing that Jiang's mother couldn't hold on any longer, the two of them were driven to bed by Xu Anan.

Unable to resist the sleepiness, the two went down to rest.

Xu Anan used an iron rod to pull the charcoal. She was not cold in the house, but just a little sleepy.

Cheng Huai didn't know where he went. After dinner, he disappeared without a trace.

Drowsily, she lay on the table and fell asleep, until she felt someone put a blanket on her. When she opened her eyes, Cheng Huaiye's figure dilated in her pupils.

She rubbed her eyes: "Where have you been?"

"I took something." He looked at Wen Deng who was sleeping and said to Xu An'an, "Go back to the room and sleep."

"What time is it now?"

"It's about time."

Xu Anan suddenly woke up: "I've been waiting for this time, I'm going to set off firecrackers."

Mother Jiang came over with a pot of refreshing tea at this time, and she woke up in a daze when she heard the light. Seeing Wenluo just falling asleep like this, he quickly took off his cloak and put it on her.

Drinking hot tea, a few people cracking melon seeds and chatting, the years are quiet and peaceful.

Until a bell rang outside and it was midnight.

She hurriedly turned her head, looked into Cheng Huaiye's dark eyes, and smiled brightly: "Cheng Huaiye, happy New Year."

He seemed stunned for a moment, and his dark eyes were covered with a soft color: "An'an, Happy New Year."

The two looked at each other and smiled. Wen Luo woke up later. Wen Luo calmly handed the hairpin to her: "Sister, Happy New Year, this is for you."

Wen Luo took it and saw that it was the pearl hairpin she had liked at first glance that day. Unexpectedly, Wen Deng remembered it and bought it for her.

Wen Luo is used to suffering. She always remembers her identity. She never dares to reveal what she likes. Even if she likes it, she hides it in her heart and slowly rots away, then licks it all away.

Wen Deng was a little embarrassed: "I bought it because you looked at this hairpin twice that day." He was a little nervous: "Do you like it?"

When she raised her eyes again, Wenluo's eyes turned red when she looked at the young man in front of her. She choked with sobs: "I like it."

"Thank you, Wen Deng, this is the best gift I have ever received."

Wen Deng didn't expect that what he bought would make Wen Luo cry. He hurriedly wiped her tears: "Sister, don't cry. If you like it, I will give you a room full of hairpins and wear them until you get tired of them." .”

Wen Luo was amused by him, and she lowered her eyes and looked at it. The pearl hairpin might not be expensive, but this was the only time she was remembered by others.

Looking at her smile, Wen Deng couldn't help but smile.

His heart was beating heavily and slowly, and some emotion that shouldn't be present was growing, attacking his fragile moral defense over and over again.

In the end, his morality collapsed, and the embers turned into black dust, covering his whole heart with darkness.

Brothers and sisters...so what.

He wanted to be treasonous and let Wenluo's smile belong to him forever. *
In the wing

After Xu Anan fell asleep, Cheng Huai also put a gold lock in his purse and stuffed it under her pillow. This was the new year's money he gave Xu Anan.

I wish her good health and longevity.

The next day, Xu Anan was surprised to find something under the pillow. She poured it out and bit it, then stuffed it into the Qiankun bag.

This was the first time in her life that someone had given her lucky money, and she decided to keep this golden ingot as a souvenir.

The first day of the first lunar month is the beginning of the new year.

Xu Anan and the others have no relatives in Yangzhou, so they don't have to walk around the streets to visit relatives.

Unable to stay idle, she followed Wen Luo and ran down the street again. The street that she thought should be deserted unexpectedly had many people.

The teahouse and tavern were full of people, their faces looked excited, as if they were waiting for something.

From a few words, Xu Anan got a rough idea.

There will be a fireworks show in Yangzhou tonight. It was specially organized by a wealthy businessman to show the people he likes. The whole city can watch it.

As soon as the news came out, the entire Yangzhou city had been looking forward to night since morning.

Fireworks are a rare thing, you can't see them at all normally, and people in the whole city can watch them together, which makes them even more rare.

When Xu Anan heard this, her heart skipped a beat. She wanted to watch the fireworks that day just because she was drunk.

Wen Luo's eyes were full of envy: "What a happy girl."

Xu Anan looked down at the tips of her shoes, her heart beating faster and faster in her chest. She didn't want to be sentimental, subconsciously she felt that Cheng Huai was also responsible for all this.

He could remember every little wish of hers and fulfill them one by one.

Xu Anan curled his lips quietly, and he didn't notice the cold pimple himself. In fact, it's really hard to dislike him when he is serious.

Night is coming. Fortunately, there is no snow tonight, but there is a cold wind.

Cheng Huai was also wearing a large black cloak, and Mo Fa was wearing a golden crown inlaid with jade. The whole person looked magnificent, like a jade tree facing the wind.

He reached out and took Xu Anan's hand, and the two walked slowly along the long street. The night wind was a bit cold, but his hand was very warm.

The two came to the tallest tower in Yangzhou. From here, they could see the grand scene of the entire Yangzhou, with thousands of lights burning brightly in the long night.

"There are three thousand fireworks in total. You may have to watch them for a while." Standing taller, white mist covered his face as he spoke.

Xu Anan saw that his face was a little unclear. It was all too dreamy, like a dream. After the surprise dissipated, he realized that the feeling of unreality was getting stronger.

Seeing that she didn't speak, he turned his head, smiled and joked: "Are you stupidly happy?"

Xu Anan pursed her lips and said nothing. Cheng Huai was also stunned for a moment, a little helpless: "I worked hard to prepare this, but this is what you wanted to see. If you are unhappy, I will feel sad."

Xu Anan shook her head and stood at a high place. When she looked down, she realized that the wind above was really cold. She didn't know what was wrong with her, so she could only hold his hand tightly and ask softly: " I feel like all this is a dream. When I wake up from the dream, will it disappear like these fireworks?"

Cheng Huai also raised his hand and touched her head: "What are you thinking about? You can't."

The more gentle and considerate he became, the uneasiness in Xu Anan's heart became stronger and stronger: "Cheng Huaiye, you can't hide anything from me, you can't lie to me, and you can't play with me, otherwise..."

"Otherwise..." Xu Anan lowered his head: "I will never forgive you in my life."

Cheng Huai also trembled in his heart, but soon regained his composure. He said with helplessness: "If I had known you were so good at thinking, I wouldn't have brought you to see me. It's a pity that I wasted time, effort and money, and I can't even make a beautiful woman smile. Thank you very much."

Only then did Xu Anan laugh: "No, I like everything you prepared."

The first fireworks exploded in the air, and the brilliant colors left a beautiful mark in the sky and then gradually dissipated.

Her smile was bright, and the fireworks of the world were reflected in her pupils, which were very vivid and bright.

Cheng Huai's eyes also stayed on the side of her face. He slightly curled his lips and turned to look at the fireworks.

If only I could be this carefree forever.

Xu Anan threw herself into his arms: "Cheng Huaiye, I love you."

The sound of the fireworks was so loud that he didn't hear what she said clearly. Seeing her hugging him, he asked in her ear: "Are you cold?"

Xu Anan shook his head, looked up at him, and smiled slightly: "Let's go back."

"it is good."

After getting off the high-rise building, the fireworks are not over yet.

Standing on the empty street, she could see the afterglow of the fireworks in the sky, but she couldn't see them all. Most of the people gathered at Liuye Lake, which was a perfect place to watch the fireworks.

After walking a long way, Cheng Huai still couldn't help but ask: "Just now, what did you say to me?"

When Xu Anan heard this, she turned around, walked backwards, and looked at him face to face. She showed a bright smile, and her eyebrows were crooked: "I said you are stupid, it would be nice to give me so much money, let it all go." What a waste of fireworks, you can buy a lot of delicious food with this money."

"Yes." Cheng Huai also nodded: "I will give you all the money from now on."

He was a little regretful that he didn't hear what Xu Anan said. He wondered if he could hear it again in the future.

 Here is the big sweetness, and next is the little cruelty.
