"I'm starving." Xia Younan ran to the stall, picked up a piece of osmanthus cake and put it into his mouth.

"Bang!" At the critical moment, her hand was suddenly slapped hard by someone, and the osmanthus cake that was about to be eaten fell to the ground.

Xia Younan was stunned. He looked at the culprit and asked with a bitter face, "What's wrong? Why did you destroy my osmanthus cake?"

Lu Xiuyuan and Lu Shian were also confused. They looked at Ye Qiandai depressedly, waiting for her to explain.

Ye Qiandai looked a little unnatural, and without explaining anything, she just said, "You can't eat this, eat something else."

Xia Younan blinked twice, as if he had thought of something, and covered his mouth with his hands, saying in horror: "Is there any poison in this osmanthus cake?"

"Nonsense!" Before Ye Qiandai could deny it, the middle-aged man selling osmanthus cake couldn't stand it anymore and retorted with a glare.

"There is no other businessman as honest as me in the world. How could I possibly poison the osmanthus cake? If you want to buy it, buy it. If you don't want to buy it, leave. Don't slander a good person here."

"Hehe, sorry, I just said it casually, I didn't mean to slander you." Xia Younan smiled at him awkwardly, looked at Ye Qiandai and asked, "What's wrong with you? Why can't I eat this?"

"Because..." Ye Qiandai thought for a moment and answered reluctantly, "Because it's not delicious. I've tried it before and it's disgusting and hard to swallow."

"Oh my god!" The boss's face turned green, and he shouted at her with a red face and thick neck, "Little girl, you are talking nonsense. Osmanthus cake is a very common snack. Just because you eat it somewhere else and it doesn't taste good, do you mean that all osmanthus cakes in the world are not delicious?

"You haven't eaten at my restaurant, how do you know it's not tasty?"

"Oh, oh, don't be angry, don't be angry. I'll know if it tastes good or not after I try it."

Xia Younan tried to smooth things over with a smile, but he really couldn't resist the temptation of the osmanthus cake. He picked up another piece, swallowed his saliva and was about to take a bite.

Ye Qiandai grabbed her wrist and anxiously asked the boss, "You said it was delicious, so what ingredients did you use?"

The boss immediately fell for her provocation and shouted indignantly: "Listen carefully, my osmanthus cake uses high-quality osmanthus, premium flour, excellent honey, and top-quality cooking oil.

“It is guaranteed to be pure natural and pollution-free, sweet and soft, and melts in your mouth. It is the leader in the Beijing pastry industry!”

Xia Younan was silent, looked at the osmanthus cake in his hand, swallowed his saliva, and his face was full of heartache.

"You can't eat it." Lu Xiuyuan and Lu Shian spoke almost at the same time.

Lu Xiuyuan directly snatched the osmanthus cake from her hand and stuffed it into his mouth, then pulled out the handkerchief from her waist and carefully wiped her fingers that had just held the osmanthus cake.

"You greedy guy, next time you eat something, ask if there is honey in it. Don't you know that you are allergic to honey? Luckily someone stopped you, otherwise you would have red spots all over your body again tonight."

Xia Younan pouted with grievance, looked at Ye Qiandai curiously and asked: "Is it because you know that the recipe of osmanthus cake contains honey that you don't let me eat it? How do you know that I am allergic to honey?"

It’s strange. I don’t know Ye Qiandai at all. How does she know that Ye Shiqing is allergic to honey?

Lu Shian was even more suspicious, and his heart beat faster for no reason.

How did she know? Did she know Qing'er was allergic to honey? This shouldn't be the case!

Ye Qiandai scratched her head awkwardly and said casually, "No, I didn't know the princess was allergic to honey. I really felt that the osmanthus cake was not tasty, so I didn't let her eat it."

However, her words were not very credible in the eyes of several shrewd people, but when they saw that she was unwilling to say anything, they stopped asking any more questions.

Lu Xiuyuan paid for the osmanthus cake and took Xia Younan somewhere else to have a midnight snack.

Lu Shian and the other man were originally planning to part ways with them, but Xia Younan was afraid that they would encounter danger again, so he forced them to go with him.

Although the night was late, the atmosphere of the Lantern Festival showed no signs of abating and various activities were still in full swing.

For example, in the busiest area of ​​the street, hundreds of people surrounded a venue tightly, and in the middle of the venue a group of people were performing acrobatics.

They breathed fire, threw bowls in various ways, walked on stilts, and did somersaults. Their superb skills amazed the onlookers, who applauded and cheered.

Lu Yanluo, who loved lively scenes by nature, also rushed over when she heard the noise, jumping excitedly at the back of the crowd, wanting to watch the wonderful show.

But the daughter was petite, and no matter how she jumped she couldn't see the scene inside, and she couldn't squeeze in. The little princess was so anxious that she turned around and scratched her ears and cheeks like a little monkey.

Su Yu, who was standing by, found her look very funny. He curled the corners of his mouth imperceptibly and secretly laughed at her.

Lu Yanluo seemed to sense his teasing and suddenly turned her head to look at him.

Su Yu was stunned for a moment, then immediately returned to his original icy expression.

Lu Yanluo rolled her eyes, a big smirk appeared on her white jade face, she walked up to him and said, "Su Yu, my earring fell off. It's at your feet, help me pick it up."

Su Yu looked down at his feet and asked in confusion: "It's not here, maybe it fell somewhere else."

"Oh, it's right at your feet. I saw it. Hurry up and squat down to help me pick it up." Lu Yanluo pointed seriously at the place under his feet.

She was so serious that Su Yu began to doubt his own eyesight and squatted down to look carefully.

Lu Yanluo's eyes lit up, and she quickly ran to him and sat on his shoulder.

Su Yu was shocked and said speechlessly: "Princess, you..."

Lu Yanluo patted his head and ordered arrogantly: "Stand up and carry me to watch the show."

Su Yu was helpless. He shook his head and sighed. He stood up carefully and carried her high on his back.

Now the little princess stood out from the crowd, and had a full view of the performance in the center of the crowd. She was so happy that she shouted and laughed, and even twisted her body on Su Yu's shoulder.

Su Yu wanted to help her but took his hand back and told her worriedly, "Don't move!"

Lu Yanluo stuck out her tongue and stopped moving as she was told.

The performance inside became more and more exciting. Lu Yanluo clapped her hands loudly and her silvery bell-like laughter could not stop.

Under the influence of her laughter, Su Yu's icy face gradually disappeared, replaced by a face full of pampering and helplessness.

As time went by, the show finally came to an end.

Then a amiable and beautiful woman struck the gong heavily, first thanked everyone with a smile, and then mentioned a more interesting activity.

The activity is as follows: Couples will participate in the activity, and the man and woman in the couple will each be given a test paper with ten questions about their lover's preferences and habits.

"After the couple finishes answering the questions and hands in the paper, the host will then ask the other party to confirm the answer according to the questions on the paper.

"If both of them can answer more than 90% of the questions correctly, then the couple will win the final prize of the competition: a mandarin duck pendant carved from mutton-fat white jade.
