CHAPTER 1411: CHAPTER 1495: SIX WISHES FOR PEACE IN THE WORLD

I’ve heard that setting river lanterns afloat on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month is quite effective if one makes a wish.

One after another, Dong Huiying sent glass lamps into the long river, making a solemn gesture with her hands clasped and eyes closed.

First wish: may my husband match my heart; second wish: may the bond between husband and wife be everlasting; third wish: may we meet from dawn to dusk; fourth wish: may we grow old together; fifth wish: may our children be blessed; sixth wish: may there be peace across the land!

She’s truly greedy; perhaps she should have bought a few more lamps?

"What did Xiao Hui wish for?" As soon as Dong Huiying opened her eyes, Shujun leaned close to his wife, exerting all his charm to vie for her favor, hoping her attention would remain fixed on him. Nowadays, it’s indeed a situation of many wolves and little meat, as his wife’s constitution isn’t what it used to be, and her needs are far less intense.

This thought brought a hint of longing for the days when his wife’s desires had been wild and fierce.

Dong Huiying chuckled, her eyes curving into little crescents, "Not telling you!"

Shujun "..." Gosh, she’s so adorable!

He instantly turned lovey-dovey.

His wife was too unfair! How could she smile so adorably? It made him want to hug her and give a kiss!

Yixuan discreetly took his wife’s small hand, "It’s getting late; are you hungry, my wife? I’ve heard there’s a restaurant in the city with a good reputation."

Dong Huiying patted her flat little belly, "I hadn’t felt it until you mentioned it," but as Yixuan brought it up, she remembered it had been several hours since dinner, and indeed, she was a bit hungry.

Yixuan bent down and kissed his wife’s temple, causing Third Brother next to him to look on enviously, his eyes almost turning red. "Little Liu, let go of my wife, I’ll do it!!"

Like a whirlwind, he forcefully pushed Yixuan aside, then reverently cupped his wife’s face, showering her with passionate and fervent kisses!!

Dong Huiying’s mind was nearly a mush, and when the fiery kiss finally ended, her cheeks were crimson, and she was almost breathless.

Oh dear, she had nearly died from suffocation just now.

Feeling someone pressed against her back, she didn’t need to turn around to know with certainty it was her Lao Si; even the wooden Lao Si was now raring to go.

She glanced around, noticing some onlookers cheering, and her cheeks flushed even more. "Let’s go, I’m hungry, let’s go eat!" Grabbing Shujun, pulling Yixuan, and then taking Lao Si, Liang Haoming, she almost fled the place in embarrassment.

At the other end of the crowd, Qinghe Zhengjun held a wine jug, followed by more than a dozen guards.

During such days, in this kind of atmosphere, he invariably recalled the romantic times of the past. Yet today, some people and things can only be thought about and tucked away in the heart to savor during moments of occasional melancholy.

Sipping gently on his wine, he unexpectedly spotted a young girl amidst the crowd. The girl wore a light purple dress and sported a chic bob haircut, which was quite unconventional compared to others. Her lively eyebrows and eyes gave him a sense of daze.

He stared at her, involuntarily losing focus.

At her side, two men closely flanked her like the most devoted followers, never leaving her side. Initially, there were three, then a refined and handsome man in white joined, making it four.

Hugs and kisses, their affection and love were truly enviable to others.

Yet watching this scene, Qinghe felt a different stir of emotion. It brought about anger and frustration, like the sting of betrayal.
