As they continued talking, the two of them entered the scenic area of the Old Summer Palace through its east gate.

The lake area was divided into two by a road. On the surface of the lake on the right side, the lotus flowers had already withered, but the water lotuses were still blooming.

Yang Qingyin pointed to the front and said to Luo Ziling, “Let’s take a look here first, then we’ll go to the left side. There are several places worth visiting on the left side. The Heavenly King’s Hall, Zhengjue Temple, and the uppermost floor are all quite charming places,” she said. “You’ll need to take your

time when visiting this kind of garden so you can properly experience

“You’re right. You can only feel relaxed and at ease if you take your time,” Luo Ziling said sheepishly as he looked around. “Unfortunately, I don’t know where I should go to properly enjoy the sights. Senior sister, lead the way!”

Yang Qingyin looked back and smiled. “We’ll walk around casually and go wherever the road takes us. Besides, we definitely won’t be able to walk around the entire park today.”

Luo Ziling nodded. “Alright, I’ll listen to you. Hey, why is the Old Summer Palace different from what I imagined?”

He looked around curiously. “I thought the Old Summer Palace was just a pile of ruins and broken walls that were burned down by the eight-nation alliance army. I didn’t expect there to be such a beautiful place.”

“That’s the western-style building scenic area, the symbol of the Old Summer Palace. It’s used in the promotional material for that place. We can go and take a look later,” Yang Qingyin explained with a smile. “But it’s a bit more tiring to go there.”

Luo Ziling looked at her seriously and said with a smile, “It seems that you can’t walk for such a long distance. Why don’t we take a tour bus to the scenic area later?”

“There’s no need for that.” Yang Qingyin shook her head and refused his suggestion with a smile. “We can only see the most beautiful scenery along the way. Do you really think that I’m a weak princess? I won’t be taken down by even the strongest of winds.”

“Alright then, let’s walk slowly. If you can’t walk any further, let me know and I’ll carry you.” Luo Ziling then smiled wickedly. “In ‘Dream of the Red Chamber’, Mr. Bao takes food care of his princess. I want to learn from his example.”

“Between the both of us, who’s the Mr. Bao and princess? You’re so good at making fun of people.” Yang Qingyin’s face instantly turned pink, but she immediately said, “That said, for the price of one hunchbacked man, I won’t have to worry about spraining my ankle and getting stranded here. Can you

even lift me up, though? I’m not that light!”

Luo Ziling could not help but boast, “I can carry someone of your weight in one hand and run all over Yuanming Garden.”

“Screw you. You’re treating me like a rabbit,” Yang Qingyin said as she reached out her hand to hit Luo Ziling.

“Then what year are you born in?” he asked as he grabbed Yang Qingyin’s small fist. “I was born in the year of the dog!”

Yang Qingyin thought for a moment and realized that Luo Ziling was one year younger than her, but she still answered honestly, “I’m a rooster.”

“If we gather together, won’t we cause chaos in the Old Summer Palace?!” he asked, still grabbing onto Yang Qingyin’s hand, but his tone was serious.

“You’re kinda annoying!” Yang Qingyin nimbly broke her little fist out of his grasp and smiled. “However, if we cause chaos, then it’ll be fun.”

Her smile was very cute, and Luo Ziling was a little infatuated. He couldn’t bear to look away from her face.

“Then let’s try it later and see if we can cause chaos!” he said while staring into her eyes.

Yang Qingyin smiled mischievously and continued to walk forward.

However, neither of them expected that today’s joke would actually come true one day. The two of them would end up kicking up quite a fuss in Yanjing.

Of course, this was a topic for another time.

Both of them did not like crowded places and only walked towards places with fewer people.

There weren’t many tourists in the Palace today, and since they deliberately walked towards places with fewer people, they did not meet many people along the way.

Aman and a woman, both of which were quite good-looking. Occasionally, a few passers-by could not help but look at them, their eyes full of surprise. One man even tripped and fell to the ground because he was staring too hard.

This guy was immediately ashamed. After getting up from the ground in a hurry, he ran away in a panic.

Another middle-aged man was also looking at them. As a result of not having his eyes on the road, he crashed into a tree with a thud. A bump appeared on his forehead, and he also ran away in a panic.

Luo Ziling watched them with mild interest. He couldn’t help but tease Yang Qingyin, “You’re so beautiful that you’re giving these people a shock. If there were a lot of people, someone would probably die or a group of men would rush over and kill you, snatching you away to be the wife of the village.”

“They might be looking at you!” Yang Qingyin had also seen the interesting scene just now and received Luo Ziling’s praise. She couldn’t help but feel a little smug and she blinked and teased, “They were jealous as they watched, and in the end, they made a fool of themselves.”

“Are you indirectly praising yourself for being good-looking?!”

“Hmph!”

Seeing Yang Qingyin’s bright smile, Luo Ziling couldn’t help but tease her again, saying, “In ancient times, there used to be carriages where people would ride and you could throw fruits at. I was thinking that if you got into one of those carriages, you’d probably be able to get a whole load of fruits.”

“You’re really stretching it. Those carriages were used by peasants, not beautiful girls.” Yang Qingyin tilted her head and looked at Luo ziling, “Are you trying to say that if I were to travel by carriage, I would be welcomed by having fruits thrown at me?”

“Of course not. But going off-topic a little–there’s no way I would ever get a carriage like that. It’s possible that I would be smashed by a brick, thrown into rotten vegetables, and spat on.”

Seeing how serious Luo Ziling was, Yang Qingyin started to giggle again.

Her eyes were slightly narrowed, and her mouth was slightly curled up as her cheeks dimpled. She was as charming as she could be, and Luo Ziling found himself infatuated with her.

This was not to say that she wasn’t pretty when she didn’t smile; it was just that when she did, she was even more charming–stunning, even. This was a fact that anyone who saw her would admit. Someone once said that when Yang Qingyin smiled, she could charm more than half of the men around her.

However, she rarely smiled. Even her roommates rarely saw her smile without any scruples.

The people around her, including those who were close to her, would also rarely see her smile.

Lu Weiguang, who had been pursuing her, used all kinds of excuses to get close to her, but had also never seen her smile..

Usually, she always had a calm expression. She did not smile nor was she angry. It was as if she did not have any emotional fluctuations. Everyone knew that although she never treated others with a cold face, no one could compare to the arrogance in her bones.

Therefore, on the school beauty rankings, her charm was undoubtedly number one. No one could compare to her.

She was like a goddess, high above the world like a fairy.

But today, she has been laughing non-stop. If this charming smile of hers was seen by the people she was familiar with, their jaws would undoubtedly drop to the floor..
