"There are more people than I imagined." Pei Yuhang turned slightly, instinctively shielding Nangong Jin from the jostling crowd.
Nangong Jin pressed her lips together and nodded, but her gaze couldn't help but drift to his profile—
The warm lamplight cast a gentle halo around Pei Yuhang's usually stern features, making even the shadows cast by his eyelashes look exceptionally handsome.
"Sugar paintings! Beautiful, sweet, and crispy sugar paintings—"
A vendor's cry came from nearby. Nangong Jin glanced over subconsciously and saw a group of children laughing and playing around a stall.
The stall owner's hands moved deftly, molten sugar flying through the air. In just a few breaths, he had formed a koi fish out of sugar, making the surrounding children gasp in amazement.
Nangong Jin quickly looked away, but she heard Pei Yuhang chuckle. "Want one?"
"I've been Fasting for many years..."
The tips of Nangong Jin's ears grew hot, and she instinctively denied it out of modesty.
