Chapter 49
At night, the waning moon hangs high.

Inside Fenghua Xiaozhu, the night lights are always on.

Qin Fenghua buried his head in the files and wrote vigorously.

Suddenly, a strange sound came from the south, Qin Fenghua was stunned when he heard the sound, and suddenly an unspeakable emotion came to her heart, she put down the abacus in her hand, just like countless times before, smiled, and looked towards the south door window.However, what she didn't notice was that at this moment her touching eyes were filled with tears.

Qin Fenghua walked to the window and saw that familiar figure.

When the man saw her appear, just like countless times in the past, his charming peach eyes were full of smiles, looked at her and whispered: "Fenghua."

"Well," Qin Fenghua said softly, "Rongjing."

Rong Jing stood alone outside the window, behind him was the long dark night, and in front of him was a girl caged by candlelight.

He is in the dark, his girl is in the light, he longs for the light, but he doesn't want to drag his girl into the darkness.He knows how cold the night is, how lonely it is, and how terrifying it is...

Unlike before, this time Rong Jing didn't jump into the house, he just stood outside the window, raised his hand and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of Qin Fenghua's eyes, saying: "Fenghua, don't cry."

Hearing Rongjing's gentle comfort, Qin Fenghua's tears flowed even more fiercely.

"Fenghua, don't cry, don't cry." When Rong Jing saw Qin Fenghua crying more fiercely, he panicked. Looking at Qin Fenghua's pear face with rain on his head, he clumsily and carefully wiped Qin Fenghua's tears pouring out like a floodgate, coaxing her softly, his appearance was extremely funny.

Seeing Rongjing's funny look, Qin Fenghua couldn't help but burst into tears.

Seeing Qin Fenghua smile, Rongjing was finally relieved and couldn't help laughing too.

After laughing, the two were silent again, neither of them mentioned the heavy topic.

On a summer night, a rare breeze blows, and the sounds of frogs and cicadas keep making noise.

After an unknown amount of time, Rong Jing spoke first: "Feng Hua, I..." Rong Jing didn't know how to continue.

At this time, Qin Fenghua suddenly stretched out his white and slender hand towards Rongjing, looked into his eyes firmly and said, "We haven't lit up lanterns to pray for the Lantern Festival last time, Rongjing, will you take me there?"

Rong Jing hesitated, rubbing the hands hanging by his side restlessly, and did not respond to Qin Fenghua for a long time.

However, Qin Fenghua didn't hesitate. Seeing that Rong Jing hadn't come to hold her hand for a long time, she plunged into the darkness decisively with her plain white hand wrapped in the candlelight, took Rong Jing's hand, clasped her fingers tightly, and looked at Rong Jing. Looking into Jing's eyes, he said firmly, "Take me there."

Rong Jing stared blankly at the hands he and Qin Fenghua held together, as if he was bewitched by Qin Fenghua, he replied softly: "Okay."

Rongjing came here quietly tonight, without riding a horse.

Qin Fenghua embraced Rongjing's neck with both hands, and leaned his head against his broad chest, while Rongjing's powerful long arms crossed the edge of the window, dragged Qin Fenghua's back and legs, and carried Qin Fenghua out lightly.

Rong Jing looked down at Qin Fenghua in his arms, and said softly, "Fenghua, hold me tight."

Qin Fenghua nodded, clenched the hand holding Rongjing tightly, and curled up in Rongjing's arms like a cat.

The corners of Rong Jing's mouth were slightly raised, and he flew towards Zhuque Avenue in his arms, holding Qin Fenghua.

Soon, the two arrived at the Mingdeng River next to Zhuque Street, which is the place where people put up lanterns to pray for blessings during the Lantern Festival.

Because the Mingdeng tragedy happened just a few days ago, at this time, there was no one by the Mingdeng River, and it was no longer the bustling flowers and unprecedented silence of the past.

After being put down by Rong Jing, Qin Fenghua remembered annoyedly, now that the street is empty, where can they find a lantern to light up?

Qin Fenghua turned around and was about to talk to Rongjing, when he saw Rongjing conjure up a heavenly lantern from behind, Qin Fenghua took the lantern from Rongjing's hand in surprise, and said, "Ah! Rongjing, where did you conjure the lantern?" ?”

Rong Jing smiled and said, "It was given to me by an enthusiastic citizen."

Qin Fenghua:? ? ?

The "enthusiastic citizens" the secret guards of the royal palace hid in the distance again, hiding their achievements and fame.

"Fenghua, let's let it go together." Rong Jing looked at Qin Fenghua with a gentle smile on his face and said.

Qin Fenghua nodded happily, and replied repeatedly: "Yeah."

The custom of lighting lanterns in the Lantern Festival is very simple, that is, people briefly write down their wishes on the praying lanterns, then light the lanterns, and silently recite their wishes in their hearts. Let go of your hand and let the light go up into the sky freely.People believe that these bright lights can fly to the heavens and be seen by the gods, and then the gods will see people's pious wishes and realize people's wishes.

Qin Fenghua and Rongjing had let off the bright lights when they were young, so they naturally knew the steps to put the lights on, so they wouldn't be in a hurry.

So they followed the steps and wrote their wishes on the opposite sides of the light.Qin Fenghua opened the square lantern, dragged it upwards from the bottom, Rongjing lit the fuel at the bottom of the lantern, and then Rongjing followed Qin Fenghua to hold the lantern with both hands, waiting for the moment when the inside of the lantern was full of heat and ready to fly.

At this moment, Qin Fenghua and Rongjing each prayed devoutly in their hearts for their wishes, but neither made a sound.

After a while, the heat in the lantern was full and it could be released.

Qin Fenghua and Rongjing looked at each other, let go together tacitly, and the praying lantern that was out of their control slowly flew up into the sky, getting farther and farther away, and the light became smaller and smaller, until there were only mottled spots left. Into the starry sky, disappeared.

Qin Fenghua raised his head and watched the bright light fly farther and farther earnestly. Rong Jing turned his head to look at Qin Fenghua's fair side face. He just looked at her greedily, as if he wanted to reflect her face into his heart and blend into it for a long time. no words.

It wasn't until the bright light was out of sight that Qin Fenghua turned his head, rolled his eyes, and said to him, "Rongjing, let's go back."

"Yes." Rong Jing agreed softly.

They didn't ask each other what wishes they made, but they just held each other's hands naturally, turned around and walked back slowly, the two figures walked further and further away, gradually disappearing into the darkness...
