Chapter 1058: A Nationwide Celebration (1)

Ji Fengyan should have felt relieved after chasing off Liu Huo, but… she just felt that her methods were not at all threatening to him. He displayed not the slightest bit of hesitation or resistance.

Ji Fengyan completely did not expect that youth—so bashful and easily embarra.s.sed in her memory—would so happily agree to take a walk of shame down the streets of Heavenly Courts.

The next morning, Ji Fengyan woke up and was prepared to go check on her fiancée. She wanted to see if he was upset by yesterday’s experience. But she was met by Linghe, who had a look of wonder on his face.

“Where’s Liu Huo?” Ji Fengyan asked.

Linghe pointed at the room beside Ji Fengyan. This was the very room Ji Fengyan had planned for Liu Huo when she built the palace.

Ji Fengyan nodded and hurried over. Several times, Linghe wanted to speak up—but he ended up remaining silent and just turned around to leave.

Ji Fengyan slunk over to Liu Huo’s room and blew open the tightly closed door with a gust of vital energy. That handsome youth was still sleeping quietly on the bed. The early morning light was just shining in through the window and bathed his body in a shimmering glow. Small, red marks could still be clearly seen on his lovely neck.

Satisfied, Ji Fengyan stepped over lightly and looked at the soundly sleeping Liu Huo. Wickedly, she pinched his nose and forced him to breathe through his mouth.

Ji Fengyan felt her mood lighten as she gazed at the unresisting Liu Huo.

“Silly punk, just you wait and see.” With that, she stood up contentedly and left the room while humming a tune. She was completely unaware that right after she turned around, that handsome youth whom she was bullying had secretly opened his eyes. He stared at her departing profile with a warm gaze.

After teasing Liu Huo, Ji Fengyan hurried over to the palace hall with light steps, just to see…

The whole Heavenly Courts was adorned with long strips of red silk.

“…” Ji Fengyan was instantly stunned.

A few people were just pa.s.sing by Ji Fengyan with red lanterns in their hands. They all greeted her happily before hanging those lanterns on the houses nearby.

“My queen, do you think this red silk looks nice?” A gleeful-looking man had walked over with a huge roll of red silk.

“They are okay…” The corners of Ji Fengyan’s mouth twitched. She felt as if the entire city had changed after she woke up.

What was going on with all these colorful decorations?

“Ah, you don’t like it?” The man was taken aback. He hastily turned around and shouted at his companions, who were all busily putting up decorations. “Friends, stop! Our queen doesn’t like this color. Go pick another shade of red!”

With that, he turned back to Ji Fengyan. “My queen, please wait here. We will change it now.”

After his shout, those red silk decorations were instantly taken down. After just a brief period, a fresh batch of silk in an even brighter shade of red was brought out and put up.

Looking at the newly-changed red silk decorations, the man grinned at Ji Fengyan. “What about this color then?”

Ji Fengyan didn’t know what was going on. But fearing that the man would get the crowd to change the decorations once again if she displayed any sign of displeasure, she forced a nod.

That man shouted again.

“Our queen had decided on this. Friends, let’s hurry and get to work!”
