Chapter 1019: This Lantern Is Hers!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The sky was slightly bright and the sun was beginning to rise in the capital. The commoners went out to work as usual.

Gu Yihan had sealed off the news that Princess Yaoguang, Gu Nuo’er, had been taken away.

For a moment, no one knew that the little princess had left for Xili.

There were no cla.s.ses at the state school today, so Jiang Xiaoran woke up early.

He had originally gone to Bai Yi’s residence to look for Ye Siming.

However, Bai Yi told him, “Siming went to the palace to accompany the princess.”

Jiang Xiaoran could only leave resentfully.

He rode his horse and leisurely pa.s.sed by the street market, shaking his head and sighing.

“The princess is so young but Siming is already chasing after her. When Her Highness grows up, she’ll have to pay more attention to interactions between men and women. Wouldn’t Siming be sad then?”

The more he spoke, the more he could imagine Ye Siming’s expression when the time came.

He couldn’t help but click his tongue and shake his head.

At this moment, a fragrant pastry smell entered his nose.

Jiang Xiaoran turned around.

The Four Seasons Sweet Shop had just opened and many people were already queuing up to buy pastries.

Jiang Xiaoran pondered.

It had been a long time since he came here to reply to the lantern letter. He wondered if the other party was waiting anxiously.

Jiang Xiaoran tied the horse to the door, lifted his robe, and walked into the hall.

When Qi Jingsheng heard footsteps, he quickly ran over and smiled. “Young master, if you want to buy pastries, you have to queue outside. If you’re here to get the lantern letter, give me the token and I’ll get it for you.”

Jiang Xiaoran took out his token. “Thank you.”

“No, no.” Qi Jingsheng took the token and touched it with his finger. He was suddenly stunned.

He repeatedly confirmed, “Young master, is this your own lantern letter?”

“That’s right. Why?” Jiang Xiaoran was puzzled.

“Oh… It’s nothing. I’m just making a final confirmation. Please wait a moment.”

After saying that, Qi Jingsheng turned around and went to the rack filled with lanterns to search.

Not long later, Qi Jingsheng brought the lantern letter over.

Previously, he was very vexed that he had angered Xie Yinxiang. He didn’t know who to tell, so he placed his troubles on the lantern letter.

In the letter, he asked if the other party knew how to apologize to the girl he liked.

Jiang Xiaoran took a closer look. The other party’s beautiful handwriting said that she wanted to persuade him to tell her his true feelings.

At the end of the writing, it said that they would meet again if fate allowed it.

Jiang Xiaoran looked at the lantern. There was indeed nowhere else to write.

His problem with Xie Yinxiang had yet to be resolved.

Jiang Xiaoran sighed and asked Qi Jingsheng, “How much can I spend to take the lantern away?”

Qi Jingsheng quickly said, “The rule set by the young boss is that you can take the lanterns away without spending money. However, this lowly one has to register.

“Young master, just leave a surname.”

“My surname is Jiang.”

Qi Jingsheng wrote it down.

He smiled and said, “Young master, thank you for your support for this small shop. I’ll treat you to a plate of pastries. Please sit here and slowly taste them.”

Qi Jingsheng planned to pay out of his own pocket and invite Jiang Xiaoran to sit down and enjoy the pastries.

He turned around and went to the kitchen.

Jiang Xiaoran sat on the stool and raised his eyebrows, sighing. “As expected of the princess’s shop. The staff is really considerate.”

He picked up the lantern on the table and started reading from the sentence they had started the exchange at the beginning.

At this moment, Xie Yinxiang walked into the sweet shop.

The waiter at the side welcomed her. “Miss Xie, you’re here.”

Xie Yinxiang smiled. “Is Brother Jingsheng around?”

“He’s here. He just went to the kitchen. Miss Xie, wait for a moment. I’ll go call him for you.”

Xie Yinxiang quickly said, “There’s no need to trouble yourself. I’m here to take the lantern. I want to see… if that young master took the lantern away.”

The shop a.s.sistant smiled and said, “Then sit for a while and wait for Jingsheng to come and get it.”

Xie Yinxiang nodded and thanked him. Just as she was about to find a seat, she turned around and saw Jiang Xiaoran sitting not far away.

He was wearing embroidered clothes and a jade headgear. His eyes were elegant and he was holding a lantern in his hand, looking at it carefully.

Xie Yinxiang gradually widened her almond-shaped eyes.

That lantern… was hers!
