They walked all the way to the upper reaches of the river. It was quiet around, and the sound of crickets came from time to time.

One lantern after another floated down the river and lit a light in the dark to attract people's attention.

Jiang Jingshu eased from her sadness and looked at the lanterns in the river.

"Light the lanterns and everything you want will come true... The lanterns will bring your wishes to the river god..." the old man's cry came not far away. A few people bought the lanterns from the old man's stall to light them.

Jiang Jingshu looked along the voice, and her sight also fell on the lantern.

Ning LUOQI noticed Jiang Jingshu's eyes. She didn't speak out. She could know what she was thinking.

He strode over and bought a lantern from the old man.

"Here." Ning LUOQI turned back and handed the lantern to Jiang Jingshu.

Jiang Jingshu smiled and thanked her, then walked to the river. She squatted down, holding a lantern in her hands, looking at the flickering candles, looking blurred.

Ning LUOQI came to her and asked, "do you believe in the god Buddha?"

“……”

God Buddha?

She had no God's favor in her life. She had suffered all the hardships. Her relatives died. Her favorite betrayed her and ruthlessly inserted a knife into her heart.

But fortunately, at the last moment, I don't know if God heard her begging and let her start again. She was reborn to the year when no tragedy had happened, so that she had a chance to recover.

She closed her eyes and looked pious.

After a long time, he opened his eyes and was ready to let the lantern go.

At this time, a hand was on her shoulder. She looked up and could see Ning Luo Qi from this angle.

"What did you promise?" he asked.

Jiang Jingshu smiled and shook her head. "If you say it, you won't do what you want."

Ning Luo was stunned and looked at Jiang Jingshu deeply. It seemed that she wanted to engrave her quiet smile in her mind. She didn't want to forget. She had to remember every frown and smile.

I don't know when to start, her every frown and smile can affect people's hearts.

His heart was beating out of his control.

"You make a wish to me first. If you don't, then make a wish to God." he said in a low voice, his voice calm and overbearing. There's nothing he can't do in the world.

Jiang Jingshu looked at Ning LUOQI's eyes, and her smile gradually faded, "you can't seem to do it..."

"Do you know who I am? I can do whatever you want for you! Even if you want the whole prosperous capital, I can..."

Ning LUOQI's voice was sincere and dignified, not joking.

His eyes are serious now.

"I know." Jiang Jingshu said faintly, dropping her eyes slightly.

Of course she knows.

If we say that the most terrible people in the capital are not the vicious four princes, nor the thoughtful seven princes... But the people who look natural and unrestrained in front of them.

He turned clouds and rain with one hand and controlled all the situations in the world.

He can easily get everything he wants, so the fourth prince will worship him and dare not despise him.

Jiang Jingshu, who knows him best in the world, should have the memory of his previous life.

She calmly let go of the lantern in her hand and pushed it to the distance. Then she got up quietly and stood at the side of Ning LUOQI. Her sight was getting farther and farther with the lantern, and her look was blurred.

"You will be the most powerful person in the capital..."

"But..." Jiang Jingshu turned her face and looked up at him. She looked very serious. Her eyes were curved and seemed to smile. They were brighter than the moonlight. "But my wish is to let the lantern bring it to the river god, whether I wish it or not... My destiny will be firmly controlled by myself and will never be handed over to anyone."

"Jiang Jingshu..." Ning LUOQI murmured.

He has some love for the woman in front of him.

In the end, how cold is despair, so that no one will believe it, freeze the whole heart and don't let anyone near.

He looked at the people close at hand and wanted to stretch out his arms to hug her and tell her that she didn't have to bear it alone in this life. No matter what happened, he would block it for her.

“……”

His hand moved, saw the bright smile, and finally didn't hold her.

"Young master Ning, thank you very much today." Jiang Jingshu nodded her thanks, stepped back and kept a distance from him.

Her feet were numb and she was about to turn around.

Ning LUOQI reached out and grabbed her arm. "Jiang Jingshu, is your wish about Jiang mansion or... Peiyuan?" he asked. His voice trembled slightly when he asked.

Jiang Jingshu looked at him seriously and recalled what he had said in her mind.

Jiang Fu, Pei Yuan

Ning LUOQI was still worried about his previous life. Jiang Jingshu falls in love with Pei Yuan and gives everything for him. What should Pei Yuan do if she still has feelings in this life and can't forget it?

Thinking of this, he wanted to get rid of Peiyuan directly.

His men were conscious of pinch.

Jiang Jingshu frowned and looked at her tightly held arm. The pain came.

But she didn't show anything. She raised her face, smiled calmly, and said, "what happened once has been forgotten... Once a teenager is no longer a teenager, and once a fool is no longer a fool..."

Just a few words, the words are calm, and the thoughts contained are not quiet.

Ning LUOQI read her mind and slowly released his hand.

The two walked along the river one by one. Jiang Jingshu carried a lantern and walked briskly. After a night, the atmosphere between them was much less embarrassing, but more sympathetic.

I don't know how long it took, Jiang Jingshu stopped and turned around.

Ning LUOQI's sight had been falling on her. Seeing her suddenly stop and quickly take back her eyes, it seemed that she was broken.

"Young master Ning."

Jiang Jingshu knows that Ning LUOQI is not a criminal.

It was said that he was the Shura of the whole family and a sinner of great treachery. She also believed that there must be an unspeakable reason.

She remembered that his fate was particularly tragic. He was betrayed by the fourth prince, covered with fabricated charges, and put in prison. He had no power to return to heaven.

She looked at Ning Luo Qi standing in front of her now, with his hands behind his back, with a tall and indifferent figure... Thinking of his miserable end, she couldn't help dropping her eyes and tightening her heart.

"Childe Ning, it's necessary to guard against people. Everyone has two sides. Even if you are good at heart and lung, you will start trying to get rid of your threat when you are in power..."

"So take care."

She said quietly, only vaguely mentioning him.

That's all she can do now.

Ning LUOQI was stunned and saw Jiang Jingshu's entanglement. Her words were reminding him to be on guard against the fourth prince. He has a memory of his previous life. Naturally, he knows what she said.

She knows what happened in her previous life and is worried about him!

Ning Luo Qi felt strange in his heart, as if he had been filled with something and expanded more and more.

His eyes became hotter and hotter. Jiang Jingshu felt uncomfortable. She coughed and turned away from him.

"It's getting late, childe Ning. I'm going back to my house."

"OK, I'll take you back!"

Ning LUOQI stepped forward and walked shoulder to shoulder with Jiang Jingshu.

Jiang Jingshu's figure was stiff and did not refuse. She walked forward.

……

Not far away, under the willow tree, a man saw their figure in his eyes.

He subconsciously pulled the trunk aside and pulled down a piece of bark.

Since they put lanterns on the river, his eyes fell directly on the woman, "Jiang Jingshu... Why..."

"Brother Pei?"

Someone shouted not far away.

Pei Yuan's mind hasn't come back. He doesn't take back his eyes until they can't see.

His face was full of anger. He clenched his fist and beat it hard on the trunk. The back of the hand rubbed the skin, the blood flowed, and there was no frown.

"Jiang Jingshu, Ning LUOQI," he said coldly.

Jiang Jingshu alienated him. Today, she lied that she had already rested and refused his invitation. Unexpectedly, I turned around and went on a trip with other men to give me lanterns.

Present lanterns... This is a gift for people you like. Take lanterns as objects to express your thoughts. If the recipient accepts the other party's wishes, he will give them back as a gift with a purse or sachet embroidered by himself.

The lantern in Jiang Jingshu's hand must have been given by the man!

Pei Yuan felt uncomfortable. He felt something in his heart. He wanted to vent, but he couldn't vent. It was jealousy and anger... He felt that Jiang Jingshu was clearly the person he liked and the thing in his bag, but he was taken away by others.

"Brother Pei, what are you looking at?" someone came over and patted him on the shoulder.

"Tonight we might as well go drinking and stay drunk!"

"OK." Pei Yuan replied in a muffled voice. His look was cold and his anger had not dispersed. Everyone was stunned when they heard the answer, "brother Pei is really rare today. He wants to accept our invitation..."

"Go! Find a restaurant!"

Pei Yuan took back his eyes and hid his injured hand in his sleeve.

When he turned around, his face was cold, his heart was gradually different, his mind was budding, and things gradually developed to an uncontrollable level

Jiang Jingshu doesn't know this, nor does she know that Pei Yuan sees her figure walking with Ning LUOQI. Walking back to the streets of Beijing, when Ning LUOQI sent her back to Lin's house, she only felt cold in her back and shivered subconsciously.

"Is it cold?"

Ning LUOQI was careful and noticed Jiang Jingshu's subtle movements. Then he took off his long shirt and put it on her.

"No, I don't feel cold..." Jiang Jingshu wanted to refuse, but Ning LUOQI directly pressed her shoulder with both hands and let her refuse.

……

"Miss!" a cry came not far away.

The figure flashed by, and then Banxia appeared in front of Jiang Jingshu. She looked impatient and her forehead was full of fine sweat. After she got lost in the street, she has been looking for Jiang Jingshu.

Now I'm relieved to see Jiang Jingshu coming back unharmed.

Banxia knelt in front of Jiang Jingshu on one knee and said, "it's the servant's incompetence. I didn't protect the young lady. Please punish the servant!"

She felt guilty. She didn't even know when she lost her. In case of any accident... Pinellia Pinellia felt depressed and full of guilt at the thought of here.

Jiang Jingshu shook her head, "get up. It's not about you. I didn't think about it well and didn't let you follow closely."

"But..." Pinellia bowed her head deeply and didn't want to get up.

"Pinellia, let's go back to the house."

She said quietly, her voice much more serious.

Banxia looked up at her and got up.

Jiang Jingshu turned to Ning Luo and nodded, "thank you very much today. Lin's house is right in front of you. You don't have to send me off... Be careful when you go back."

"OK." listening to Jiang Jingshu's caring words, Ning LUOQI felt warm in his heart.

He stood silently and watched Jiang Jingshu go away until he turned the corner and couldn't see his figure. He was reluctant to take back his sight.

"Jiang Jingshu..." he murmured.
