Mingyu held Yan Mingzhu's arm affectionately, "Yes, the fireworks feast on the Double Ninth Festival is spectacular. Every year, my eldest brother and the others will take me out to watch the fun. Zhuzhu, are you also here to watch the fireworks? What a coincidence, let's go together
Yeah, it’s so lively with so many people!”
Before Yan Mingzhu could speak, Qi Jue interrupted coldly: "Unfortunately."
You can meet the Ming family everywhere you go. Why didn't he think that the Ming family was such an eyesore before?
Mingyu turned around and realized that Qi Jue was also there.
"I have met His Highness King Dingbei. Did His Highness also pass by?"
Qi Jue's face was sullen, her eyes were blurred in the back of her head, couldn't she see that he was with Yan Mingzhu from the beginning to the end?
Yan Mingzhu smiled and said: "Your Highness and I are together. We plan to go to Jixiang Tower for dinner. At this time, Ayu, you must have eaten, right?"
Ming Zizhan walked over and when he saw Qi Jue was there, alarm bells rang in his heart, and he immediately said: "We haven't eaten yet. I think we and Miss Yan really have a good connection. We both want to come to Jixiang Building for dinner.
Right, brother?"
Originally, he wanted to give his eldest brother a reminder, but Ming Zizhan turned around and found that Ming Xingjian was actually looking at Qi Jue!
Although the two people didn't say anything, they seemed to have formed a fierce duel invisibly, which could turn people into ashes in an instant!
"Meeting is fate. Miss Yan, why not be together?"
Naturally, Yan Mingzhu would not refuse. The Double Ninth Festival is a day to reunite with her relatives, so she naturally hopes to be with her relatives.
However, Qi Jue's expression was not good-looking, and he said coldly: "The private seats appointed by this king cannot accommodate so many people."
This is clearly the meaning of rejection.
But who is Ming Zizhan? He is a person who doesn’t know what a face is at all. Hearing what Qi Jue said, he immediately said: "Then Miss Yan, please come and sit with us. Your Highness Prince Dingbei will sit alone.
The private seats won’t be crowded, right?”
Qi Jue deeply suspected that Ming Zizhan was tired of living!
Yan Mingzhu sighed inwardly, "Let's sit together. Just book a larger seat. If His Highness doesn't like too many people, why not go back to the palace first?"
Qi Jue frowned and said in a very unhappy tone: "Are you going to drive me away?"
"Of course not, it's just that His Highness is usually busy with official duties, so..."
Before he finished speaking, Qi Jue reached out and held Yan Mingzhu's wrist, pulling her directly inside.
"I have this little time, of course."
Seeing Qi Jue dragging Yan Mingzhu into the restaurant, Mingyu hurriedly pushed Ming Xingjian and said, "Brother, why are you still standing there? Follow me quickly. Whether Zhuzhu can be my sister-in-law depends on your performance, brother!"
Ever since, the wonderful world of two people has turned into a world of five people.
After they sat down, the dishes were served quickly. Yan Mingzhu took a look and found that the dishes on the table were all very suitable to her taste.
After seeing the dishes on this table, Ming Xingjian couldn't help but feel a little confused. The taste of these dishes... were all liked by his aunt during her lifetime.
Ming Xingjian couldn't help but raise her eyes to look at Yan Mingzhu, and forgot to look away for a long time.
Qi Jue naturally noticed Ming Xingjian's undisguised gaze staring at Yan Mingzhu, and the fire in his heart bubbled out.
The man surnamed Ming was so audacious that he dared to poach him so blatantly right under his nose!
The furious His Highness King Dingbei was completely unaware that Yan Mingzhu was not him and was not his corner at all.
"Eat more."
Qi Jue gave Ming Xingjian a warning look, picked up the chopsticks, and put a piece of Dongpo pork into Yan Mingzhu's bowl.
"Thank you, Your Highness."
At this time, Ming Xingjian also put a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs into Yan Mingzhu's bowl, "Miss Yan, try this osmanthus sweet and sour pork ribs. It is Jixianglou's signature dish. It tastes good."
"Thank you very much, Mr. Ming."
Who knows, just as Yan Mingzhu finished speaking, Qi Jue brought over another dish, "Try this new style vegetarian roast goose."
Ming Xingjian was not to be outdone: "This Longjing shrimp dish is also very good."
As a result, in just half a cup of tea, the small bowls in front of Yan Mingzhu had piled up like a mountain, and the people on the left and right seemed to have no intention of stopping and continued to fill the bowls.
Yan Mingzhu quickly blocked the bowl with her hand, "Enough, enough, my bowl can hardly hold it anymore. Your Highness, Mr. Ming, you can eat it by yourself. With so many dishes, I can't be the only one eating it."
Ming Xingjian smiled and said, "I've already used it and I'm not hungry yet. Miss Yan, just eat."
Qi Jue didn't say anything, but his eyes kept falling on Yan Mingzhu, his eyes full of deep meaning.
Yan Mingzhu thought for a while, picked up a piece of lettuce and put it in Qi Jue's bowl, "This lettuce is crispy and tender, please try it, Your Highness?"
Seeing the lettuce picked by Yan Mingzhu himself in the bowl, Qi Jue's expression softened slightly, and he finally picked up the chopsticks and started to taste it.
Just then, there was a loud bang outside.
Mingyu shouted first: "Set off fireworks!"
Then he took Yan Mingzhu and ran to the horse walk, lying on the railing, pointing in the direction of the sky, "Zhuzhu, look, it's in the shape of a flower, and that one is the word "福", it's so beautiful!"
Yan Mingzhu also raised his head and looked up. The gorgeous fireworks rushed into the sky and exploded, making the dark night sky extremely dazzling.
Ming Xingjian also looked up for a while, but when she turned back accidentally, she found that Qi Jue was not looking at the fireworks, but turned her head slightly, and following his gaze, she realized that what he was looking at was Yan Mingzhu.
The gorgeous fireworks were looming in his pupils, and only Yan Mingzhu beside him was clearly and completely reflected in his eyes.
This look... Ming Xingjian couldn't help but frown. Just as he was about to say something, Yan Mingzhu just turned around.
He happened to catch Qi Jue's gaze and was knocked into the face, but Qi Jue did not dodge.
"Your Highness, why are you staring at me instead of watching the fireworks? Could it be that there is something dirty on my face?"
Qi Jue hummed slightly, her sleeves moved slightly, and when she raised her hand, the warm fingertips lightly touched her lips.
"It's clean now."
Then with a calm and natural expression, he retracted his hand.
Probably the man's movements were too gentle, which made Yan Mingzhu's earlobes feel a little hot.
What's going on tonight? Why do my ears always feel hot?
Yan Mingzhu touched her earlobe and said, "The fireworks are quite nice, aren't they?"
Qi Jue curled her thin lips slightly, looked at her and replied: "Well, she looks good."
She looks good, so why look at her and say she looks good?
Yan Mingzhu felt a little uncomfortable and looked away. Just as Mingzhu held her hand and pointed at the sky to let her see new shapes, her attention was attracted by the fireworks again.
After watching the fireworks and having dinner, it was getting late.
Coming out of Jixiang Tower, Mingyu said excitedly: "Zhuzhu, it's getting late. It's not safe for a girl like you to go back to the Marquis Mansion alone. Shall we take you back?"
