Chapter 1382: 671 third watch

The two approached Gu Jiao.

Seeing that Gu Jiao was acquainted with Mu Qingchen, and both were wearing Tianqiong Academy’s uniforms, the crowd looked unsurprisingly astonished.

A scholar said, "I told you it was Young Master Qingchen, right? Only his articles could catch Elder Yang’s eye."

In the second-floor private room, Elder Yang was kneeling on a cushion, several fresh eight-legged essays collected from the Grand Hall laid out on the desk before him.

Sitting opposite Elder Yang was a refined middle-aged man.

"Elder, you’ve read them several times already," the middle-aged man said with a smile. "Are they really that stunning?"

Elder Yang stroked his beard and said, "Since Prince Jing, I haven’t seen such outstanding talent and brilliant writing."

"Nowadays he is the Duke of An," the middle-aged man chuckled. "Comparing someone with the Duke is quite high praise, don’t you think? Who exactly is it?"

Elder Yang looked at the signature on the paper and said somewhat oddly, "Long Yi."

...

Gu Jiao and her companions walked on the bustling street. She now had two lanterns, a pink peach blossom lantern and a golden gourd lantern, drawing the eyes of many passersby.

"Liulang, your lantern is really nice!" Yuan Xiao said, pointing at the gourd lantern in Gu Jiao’s right hand.

Of course, it was a gift from my darling.

Mu Qingchen cast a suspicious glance at Xiao Hen. Who in the world was this man?

"Dried meat! Fresh and delicious dried meat!"

The hawker’s cries came from not far away.

Xiao Hen said to Gu Jiao, "You go ahead and browse. I’ll buy some dried meat."

After he left, Mu Qingchen blurted out, "Do you like dried meat?"

It was a strange question, so much so that even Mu Qingchen furrowed his eyebrows in surprise. Why did he subconsciously assume that everything the man called Long Yi did was for Xiao Liulang? _{freeweɓnovēl.coɱ}

Gu Jiao felt she had to be cautious in answering this question.

Just then, Mu Chuan spotted a new lantern riddle stall and waved at the others, "Fourth Brother, Liulang, come over here!"

"Liulang, let’s go, let’s have a look!" Yuan Xiao urged.
