Where prosperity ends, flowers never end

Chapter 196 Mid-Autumn Festival Chapter

After Ran Qianxi finished her breakfast, the two got up and left without taking the pastries.

Li Zhengzhong finally rushed over, but unfortunately he could only see a pair of backs.

Huai Rufan took a step forward and sighed as he looked at Ran Qianxi's back.

"It seems she already knows."

Li Zhengzhong sighed and turned away.

The Mid-Autumn Festival has arrived, and Mou Lan has been staying at Duanmu Yan's house until now. Duanmu Yan has gradually accepted the two of them.

Si Kong often came to visit Hongfeng Island. He knew that Ran Qianxi was in Penglai, but he never disturbed her. Han Wudu felt that he was becoming more and more cowardly.

"With a boat and two sticks of incense, you can see the Ah Qian you've always dreamed of. Why waste your time on my little piece of land?"

"She doesn't want to see me."

Han Wu looked at his self-pitying appearance and rubbed the bridge of his nose helplessly.

"You've been staying with me for months, as if you were intoxicated by a love poison. Could it be that you've changed your mind about Ah Xu?"

Si Kongqian turned around and glanced at him, the helpless look in his eyes was embarrassing.

"You know, I don't have any romantic feelings for Ah Xu."

Han Wu smiled lightly, took out the preface to Li Zhengzhong's poetry collection, and pretended to be sad.

"Alas... the phoenix tree was half dead after the frost, and the white-headed mandarin ducks flew away without their partners. Lying on the empty bed listening to the rain outside the south window, who will mend clothes by lamplight at night?"

Si Kongqian looked at him in confusion.

"What are you reading? It's so sad and indignant that it makes you feel chilled."

Han Wu smiled lightly and closed the poetry collection.

“A love story by a literary giant.”

Si Kongqian did not understand his hint and continued to eat his grapes nonchalantly.

"What does it have to do with me? Why do you read it to me?"

"Maybe his lover has nothing to do with you, but he is thinking about your lover."

Sikong Qian frowned. He would never have thought that Ran Qianxi would be so similar to Li Zhengzhong's dead lover, and he even regarded her as his lover's shadow.

Han Wu picked up the veil and slowly stood up. Without saying a word, he went to find Duanmu Yan's shop for Si Kong Qian.

Ran Qianxi was helping a customer pack clothes out of boredom when she suddenly heard some teasing coming from outside the door.

"Look at this. A grown man is trying to imitate a girl by wearing a veil."

"Hahaha, like a woman."

"Maybe she is a fairy from heaven, hahahaha."

Three grown men were gossiping and insulting others. Ran Qianxi was the first to look over and clearly saw Han Wu's figure immediately walk out!

"Go, go, go, don't block the door if you're not buying clothes."

Han Wu smiled faintly when he saw her come out, but those men were very upset after being scolded by the woman, and their words became more and more unpleasant.

"Oh, you can protect him. This second tail is your lover, right?"

Ran Qianxi raised the corner of her mouth slightly, picked up her weapon and walked forward.

"You're such a chatterbox, so your family life must be unhappy."

Passerby C: "Wearing a veil in broad daylight is really embarrassing for a gentleman."

Ran Qianxi raised the broom and pointed it at him fiercely. The man subconsciously dodged back.

"The customs of Dachang people are ruined by gossipy people like you. What's wrong with wearing a veil? Who stipulates that men can't wear a veil? If you look plain and dull like you, then you don't need to wear one. I'm good-looking, so is there anything wrong with covering it up?"

The man was so angry that he jumped up and down!

"Bah, he is just ugly and does weird things!"

Ran Qianxi picked up the broom and started hitting the man wildly. The man was in the wrong and did not fight back, but he kept cursing at her.

"You bitch!"

After a fight, the man was always in a passive position. When he was forced into an alley, he picked up a bamboo pole. Suddenly, a dark purple figure fell from the sky, with a high ponytail hanging elegantly behind him.

Before Ran Qianxi could even look up, the gossipy man was kicked and fell to the ground.

"roll."

Looking at the unfamiliar figure from behind, which was neither Duanmu Yan nor Hong Fan, Ran Qianxi turned to him in confusion, and Shu Han's wild and wanton face came into her eyes.

"you?"

Shu Han looked at her in surprise, then turned and left without saying a word.

"Oh my god... How come someone from the previous life... appears again in this life..."

Ran Qianxi turned around in confusion, but saw Li Zhengzhong at the end of the alley...

"What happened today..."

Li Zhengzhong walked over slowly, holding the mooncakes he had steamed in his hands.

"I wish you a happy Mid-Autumn Festival."

Ran Qianxi politely stepped forward to take the mooncake, looked up, and saw Han Wu coming over from behind Li Zhengzhong.

"Thank you for the mooncakes, but my aunt also made some and is waiting for me to get home, so I'm afraid we won't be able to share them."

Ran Qianxi was about to leave, but was suddenly grabbed by Li Zhengzhong's arm.

"What else do you have to say, Mr. Li?"

"I know you know it in your heart, but I'm not sincerely making fun of you or insulting you. You do look a lot like her, but I know deeply that you are not her."

"It's okay, it's human nature and I can understand it."

Ran Qianxi's magnanimity made Li Zhengzhong feel even more guilty, and also made Han Wuxin even more indignant on behalf of Si Kongqian.

"The full moon represents longing for love. I am alone and have no place to turn my longing for love. Miss Ran, would you be so kind as to watch the moon with me?"

Looking at his complicated expression, Ran Qianxi smiled faintly and guessed his thoughts.

"You're still thinking about how I look like her. Now that you've lost your wife, you're pinning your longing on someone else to make up for your regrets. That's not what everyone else does."

"That's not what I meant."

Ran Qianxi paced around him for a while, rubbing her chin in confusion.

"Do those 28-year-old girls who are crazy about you know that you have this habit?"

Hearing the derogatory words, Li Zhengzhong suddenly felt lost, and a hint of brokenness flashed in his fox eyes.

"Alright, I apologize for my harsh words. It's a big holiday, why don't you call Huai Rufan and let's celebrate together."

Li Zhengzhong suddenly rekindled hope, revealed an elegant smile, and stared at Ran Qianxi for a while.

"This little thing is really nice."

Li Zhengzhong smiled, raised his hand, and picked the fallen leaves above her head.

"Thank you for your compliment."

Han Wu adjusted his mood and took off his veil. He took a few steps closer and Ran Qianxi's attention was instantly attracted to him.

"Why did you take off your veil?"

"I have to trouble you to help me put on the veil, so I don't have to wear it."

Han Wuwanli's unique appearance is enough to amaze the world, just like Tan Qianhuan's beauty makes all the beauties in the country admire her and makes all men chase after her crazily.

She didn't know how many times she faced a handsome guy, but she thought of Tan Qianhuan who had hurt her so much.

"Damn it, why am I thinking of him again..."

Han Wu approached slowly. Li Zhengzhong glanced at him and left the alley disapprovingly.

"It just so happens that I have no one to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival with. Why don't you come to Red Maple Island and make some mooncakes with me? That way I won't be lonely."

Ran Qianxi looked at the mooncake in her hand, hesitated for a moment, and finally agreed to him.

"Okay, I'll put the mooncakes in my aunt's shop, and then I'll help you make the mooncakes."

Han Wu smiled with satisfaction. Ran Qianxi had already left. He seemed to have found the correct way to use the beauty trap.
