Everyone's eyes suddenly turned to Xiao Jiwei.

The two of them were standing at the door. The lights in the corridor shone over Xiao Jiwei's face, illuminating the expression on his face clearly.

Wen Xun'er watched as his face darkened little by little, reflecting a hint of coldness.

Unfortunately, only she could see this expression, because she was standing in the corridor.

"The eldest lady's ability to knock someone down is truly amazing. Why didn't you say anything when the eldest lady bumped into His Highness the Ninth Prince's arms just now?"

His voice was not loud, and he left some room for it, but several people close by heard him and all gasped.

Wen Xun'er's expression did not change.

She knew that he must have done something bad after being away for so long. Sure enough, he actually caught her and Gu Yunzhi alone, but didn't say anything. It was very despicable!

However, the calmness on Wen Xun'er's face did not last long, because she saw in front of her, Gu Yunzhi and Li Yunni walking towards this direction.

At the same time, everyone's eyes immediately turned towards the third person just now, Gu Yunzhi. Gu Yunzhi received everyone's attention inexplicably. When he raised his eyes, he saw Xiao Jiwei and Wen Xun'er in the distance, and his face suddenly darkened.

"What's wrong?" Li Yunni didn't see the front, only saw Gu Yunzhi suddenly stop walking, followed his gaze to the front in confusion, and his eyes suddenly froze.

Wen Xun'er and Xiao Jiwei!

Her face also became ugly, and her good mood just now was gone. Especially when she noticed that all the people around her were looking at the show, her face became even more ugly. She looked at Gu Yunzhi cautiously: "Your Highness...

…”

"Let's go."

However, Gu Yunzhi suddenly interrupted her, and at the same time reached out and grabbed her wrist, directly passed Wen Xun'er and Xiao Jiwei, and entered the banquet hall, as if they did not exist.

"唏~"

The spectators watching the excitement suddenly lost interest and began to disperse one by two.

Wen Xun'er looked at Xiao Jiwei coldly: "Wait!"

She turned around and went back to the banquet. Wen Ruhai had already returned. At this moment, the heads of the banquet were shaking. Everyone stood up and seemed to be walking out.

"I came back just in time. The fireworks started. The Queen asked everyone to move to the Imperial Garden. Let's go!"

Wen Xun'er nodded and followed behind the Wens and his wife. Xiao Jiwei followed her pace and walked beside her in a leisurely manner.

The group soon arrived at Tianchi Lake in the Imperial Garden.

On the edge of the lake, the palace people were already lighting fireworks. The sizzling primer quickly got into the wooden box. Then, a "boom" was heard and the colorful fireworks exploded directly in the air, as if the entire

The palace was covered.

It was the first time for Wen Xun'er to see ancient fireworks up close, and he couldn't help but be attracted by the scene in front of him.

There were gasps and screams all around, and the ladies no longer cared that they were in the palace at the moment. They were impressed by the fireworks in front of them and let out bursts of exclamation.

Wen Xun'er noticed that Mrs. Xu next to her leaned into Wen Ruhai's arms, and Wen Ruhai hugged her with a rare smile on his face.

"Look to the left."

Beside him, Xiao Jiwei suddenly reminded him.

Wen Xun'er subconsciously felt that something was wrong, but she still couldn't help but look to the left. After searching for a while, she saw two familiar voices in the crowd.

It's Gu Yunzhi and Li Yunni.

The crowd around was very crowded, there were fireworks, and there were almost no other lights around.

Li Yunni was obviously fascinated by the beauty of the scene in front of him. When he looked towards Gu Yunzhi, Wen Xun'er could see the girl's bulging cheeks, obviously smiling.

Gu Yunzhi also showed gentleness in his eyes and a faint smile on his lips. He looked like a man with a talent and a woman, which was a perfect match.

This Xiao Jiwei.

Wen Xun'er turned his eyes and fell on Xiao Jiwei's face, smiling softly but not smiling: "Are you envious? I can give it to you too!"

She stretched out her hand to wrap around Xiao Jiwei's waist, and regardless of his reaction, she pretended to be happy and plunged into his arms, making Xiao Jiwei's entire body as hard as iron.

Die Wen Xun'er!

Ahead, out of the corner of his eye, Gu Yunzhi saw that the figure in front of him looked familiar. After a closer look, he recognized Xiao Jiwei.

He was about to look away, but suddenly his face darkened because he saw another familiar figure in Xiao Jiwei's arms.

"What's wrong?" Li Yunni suddenly felt that the breath all over his body had dropped, and immediately followed his gaze and looked back.

But Gu Yunzhi suddenly took her hand: "I saw dirty things, let's change places!"

Li Yunni looked at her fingers.

The man's palm was so big that it almost completely covered her little hand. She felt sweet in her heart and had no intention of paying attention to the "dirty things" in Gu Yunzhi's mouth. She just followed him and disappeared into other people.

On the other side, Wen Ruhai was hugging Xu Lan. When he saw from the corner of his eye that his daughter seemed to be missing, he immediately started searching around. Only then did he realize that his baby was not missing, but was in the care of his carefully selected son-in-law.

In his arms, the smile on the corner of his mouth suddenly became deeper, and even his eyes narrowed with a smile.

Xiao Jiwei keenly felt that someone was watching him.

He looked sideways and happened to meet Wen Ruhai's "aunt's smile". He suddenly panicked and subconsciously wanted to push Wen Xun'er away.

In a sense, a man and a woman are not intimate. They are just engaged, not yet married. Holding each other in front of a father is hard to keep warm and will make him angry.

However, before he could push Wen Xun'er away, Wen Ruhai had already stopped him with gestures, and at the same time indicated that he was going elsewhere, and pulled Xu Lan away, as if to give the young man a chance to get along.

Xu Lan was about to turn back to pull Wen Xun'er when Wen Ruhai held her head down: "Madam, what's the rush? Let the young man play by himself for a while, let's go somewhere else!"

A splendid fireworks lasted for less than half an hour. When the fireworks dissipated, everyone who had adapted to the light suddenly became blind. Wen Xun'er was stepped on several times and pushed again, and he couldn't stand for a while.

For stability, we can only rely on Xiao Jiwei.

After all, although he is thin, his figure is not like her height, and he can't be seen even if he is submerged in the crowd!

The two of them were pushed several times by the person leaving. Xiao Jiwei disliked her approach, but he couldn't push her away under such circumstances, so he could only endure it.

When he finally walked out of Tianchi Lake and was illuminated by the lights outside, his field of vision broadened. Xiao Jiwei immediately stepped aside and looked at his shoes.

It rained a few days ago. Although the Imperial Garden is paved with bluestone slabs, the area near the lake is still mud.

At this moment, his shoes were covered with fresh mud, which was terrible to look at.

Wen Xun'er lowered his head and looked at his shoes.

She had just huddled behind Xiao Jiwei, using Xiao Jiwei as a human shield, so the uppers of her shoes were clean and had not been stepped on. Only her heels were stepped on several times, but they were completely invisible due to the hem of her skirt.

Moreover, Xiao Jiwei was wearing a white robe, which made him look somewhat embarrassed when it was stained by mud.
