Chapter 430 - Lantern Festival

Chapter 430 Lantern Festival
There were only two people left in the living room.
Shi Mo felt that Fang Mo’er was sitting too far away from him, so he patted the seat beside
him.
Fang Mo’er did not move at all.!!
Shi Mo sighed helplessly. Instead, he stood up and walked over to Fang Mo’er’s side to sit down.
“What are you doing here?” Fang Mo’er did not choose to stand up, which meant that her attitude had softened quite a bit.
Shi Mo leaned forward to look at her with his dark eyes. “Do you have any plans for tonight? There’s a lantern exhibition nearby, let’s go take a look.”
The man spoke warmly, with eyes that were as gentle as water. There was a faint smile at the corner of his mouth.
As the saying went, ‘Reach out and do not hit the smiling person[1]’. Thus, Fang Mo’er could not bear to lose her temper with Shi Mo and nodded her head.
Shi Mo immediately replied, “Go get your coat, I’ll wait for you.”
Country Y’s traveling lantern exhibition was very spectacular, and it was held once a year.
There were several cars on the road with lanterns of various shapes and sizes.
There were also many people watching the show on the side of the road.
Fang Mo’er had long known that there would be such an event. Even if Shi Mo had not invited her, she had planned to come and take a look.
This time, the two of them did not bring any assistants with them. This outing was just for the two of them alone.
The two of them walked towards the crowded place. As there were too many passers-by, it was a little crowded. Shi Mo took the opportunity to hold onto Fang Mo’er’s arm, as if protecting her under his wings. Fang Mo’er was very quiet at this moment. She leaned into the other person’s embrace without struggling to break free.
Shi Mo was in a good mood as his arms were around the woman. When he passed by a stall selling small lanterns, the stall owner called out to the extremely good-looking couple, “Come, buy a lantern. This lantern symbolizes a hundred-year marriage. Buy one and give it to your wife.”
Shi Mo stopped in his tracks. His interest was piqued by the stall owner who seemed to have a very good eye.
Fang Mo’er was also attracted by the various small lanterns. One of the lanterns that was in the shape of a lotus flower and symbolized a hundred-year marriage, was especially eye-catching
“How did you know that we’re husband and wife?” Shi Mo raised his eyebrows as he reached out to take the lotus flower lantern. He was going to buy it.
The stall owner’s mouth became even sweeter. “You look like a married couple.”
Shi Mo was very pleased with his sweet talk, so he happily paid the money and left with Fang Mo’er.
The roadside was filled with people. Shi Mo and Fang Mo’er squeezed through and finally stood in the front row.
The float slowly passed by the two of them.
The crowd was filled with excited applause and cheers.
The people were extremely excited. The festive atmosphere was naturally very infectious and made the knot in people’s hearts disappear completely.
Shi Mo held onto Fang Mo’er’s waist and pulled her into his embrace. Not allowing the people around to crowd Fang Mo’er, it was as if he was giving her a safe little world to be in.
It was a peaceful feeling.
There were a few couples around them who were holding hands. Some of them were just like Fang Mo’er. The man embracing the woman from behind as they leaned into each other affectionately.
As the colorful lanterns passed by, the colors of the lanterns reflected onto Fang Mo’er’s face.
The man’s chest was warm and steady, and felt very reassuring to lean on.
On the other side.
Two young lovers wearing masks also headed towards where Fang Mo’er was.
Jack had already made a prior appointment with his female companion, but along the way, he had lost interest and was no longer in the mood for it.
Now that he was being pulled forward by his female companion, Jack maintained his gentlemanly manners out of habit and protected the woman in his arms.
Soon, the two of them reached the front row.
Coincidentally, Jack discovered that the woman standing next to him was actually Fang Mo’er.
The way Fang Mo’er and Shi Mo were standing was even more eye-catching.
At the moment, Jack was wearing a mask so that his fans would not recognize him. On the other hand, his girlfriend, who he had only just started dating, had an excited expression on her face.
Because she was being treated in such a gentlemanly manner by Jack, she had a happy smile on her face.
Little did she know that at this moment, Jack’s expression had completely turned cold.
Compared to Fang Mo’er, his little girlfriend was completely crushed.
Previously, he had thought that his little girlfriend was cute and sweet. Now, the woman standing next to him was the real goddess.
Jack quickly realized that the woman in his arms no longer smelled good to him
[1] The literal meaning is very simple: when you reach out to hit someone who is at fault (a big, unforgivable mistake), and the other party admits and apologizes to you with a smile, can you still bear to do it?
