After seeing such a wish, the figure whose side profile was hidden in the dark curled his lips slowly. Tsk. What an interesting man. He was so domineering and possessive. However, his wish was simply for Lan’er’s wishes to come true.
That person opened the second lantern. The words written on it read: ‘I wish that Yunyi will always be my queen from this life to the next. —Shu Jingfeng’
After reading those words, that person clicked his tongue once more. This was also another interesting man. That person wondered what choices this man would make a thousand years later.
The third flower lantern was opened as well. The words written on it were: ‘I wish that I can find my sister, meet my mother and have a family reunion as soon as possible. —Feng Yunsheng’
This time, that person frowned slightly. Such a pure and innocent wish really matched her gentle nature. He wondered if she was up for the test ahead. The process of this test would be rather interesting.
Before that person opened up the fourth flower lantern, he stared at it while thinking through his previous relationship with the author. After considering her nature, that person could roughly guess that her wish would be related to the person she cared for the most.
After making this prediction, that person opened the flower lantern. The words written on it read: ‘I wish that my family and close friends will be in good health forever and that Mobai and I will grow old together and never leave each other’s side. —Feng Tianlan’
That person looked at the words that were graceful yet filled with hidden authority. His eyebrows were raised slightly. It wasn’t too far off from what he had expected. However, he wondered who she would choose if she had to pick between her family and her close friends.
After reading the wishes within the four flower lanterns, he chuckled and put the four wishes into his storage ring, then turned to the flower lanterns that were floating away on the river and sneered. He raised his hand and extinguished all the flower lanterns, causing them to sink to the bottom of the river.
“Fools!” After saying that, he flipped his sleeves and left.
…
Feng Tianlan opened her eyes and stared at a bunny-shaped lantern that had a gardenia drawn on it, hanging beside the painting of the Bridge of Helplessness. Her eyes brightened up unexpectedly.
“If you’re awake, get up, wash yourself and then have some breakfast.” Si Mobai carried her breakfast on a tray into the room. She had a very consistent wake-up time. Therefore, he could estimate when she would wake up before making his entrance.
“Lantern.” Feng Tianlan sat upright and stared at the bunny lantern with bright eyes. “Mobai, when did you buy that lantern?”
Due to Si Mobai’s fight last night, the Lantern Festival had ended early. He shouldn’t have been able to buy any lanterns. Besides, she had seen so many lanterns last night and had never seen this one before.
When Si Mobai saw her staring at the flower lantern without even looking at him, he instantly eased himself in front of her with an air of jealousy and blocked her view of it. “I made that. This gardenia is also drawn by me. This bunny lantern is the only one in the whole wide world.”
After hearing what he said, Feng Tianlan got out of bed and pounced on Si Mobai. She wrapped both her legs around his waist, clung to him, and held his face with both hands. “Damn, Mobai. You’re so cute.”
“Do not call a man cute,” Si Mobai reprimanded her softly. However, his expression was obviously very indulgent. There wasn’t any sign that he was reprimanding her seriously.
Feng Tianlan rubbed his face while pouting her red lips. She lowered her head and gave him a kiss. Then, she looked at him, smiling. “On account of the fact that you love me so much, I have rewarded you with a kiss.”
“You kissed me without washing your face and rinsing your mouth after just waking up this morning. I disliked it.”
Feng Tianlan let out a sly laugh. “How can you say you disliked it? You were obviously enjoying it.”
Si Mobai slapped her butt affectionately. “Come and have your breakfast.”
