The system took me to the peak of life in ancient times

Wang Simeng did not rush to pay. The three of them walked while chatting.

"This is the largest lantern shop in the capital, specializing in making lanterns." Mo Beichen explained.

"Okay, let's go in and take a look." Wang Simeng said to Mo Beichen and Mo Mingxuan with a smile.

The three of them walked into the lantern shop.

The lantern shop is bustling with people coming and going. The lantern shop is full of lanterns of all kinds.

The lanterns sold in the lantern shop are arranged according to color.

Some lanterns are big red, some are big yellow, some are small red, some are blue, some are green, and some are white.

"These lanterns are so beautiful, and the patterns on them are simply amazing." Wang Simeng couldn't help but exclaimed as she looked at the various lanterns.

"Of course. These lanterns are the highest quality among our lanterns." The shopkeeper introduced.

"Oh, really? How much is one of the lanterns here?" Wang Simeng said with a smile.

"Haha, young lady, all the lanterns here are thirty taels. Would you like to buy one?" asked the shopkeeper.

"Thirty taels?" Wang Simeng asked in surprise. Thirty taels is not a small amount of money for ordinary people.

"Boss, I want all of these." Mo Beichen said as he took out a stack of banknotes.

The shopkeeper was so excited that he took the banknote and said, "Okay, okay, please wait a moment. I will go and prepare it."

"Hey? Mo Beichen, why did you buy so many lanterns?" Wang Simeng asked.

"I'm giving it away." Mo Beichen said.

Wang Simeng gave Mo Beichen a thumbs up: "You are awesome."

Wang Simeng continued to look around the store, intending to buy her favorite lantern.

"Boss, I want the light pink lantern." As he said this, he was about to take out money from his cross-body bag.

Seeing this, Mo Beichen hurriedly grabbed Wang Simeng's arm to stop her from taking out the money.

Wang Simeng raised her head slightly and looked at Mo Beichen in confusion. She didn't realize that her arm was being pulled by Mo Beichen. "Huh?"

"Simeng, these lanterns were originally meant for you." Mo Beichen said with a smile.

"Ah? A gift for me?" Wang Simeng asked in surprise.

"Yeah." Mo Beichen nodded.

"I thought you were planning to give it to your sweetheart. I have money, I can buy it myself." Wang Simeng said to Mo Beichen with a smile, and patted her small cross-body bag.

"No need. If I say I'm giving it to you, then I'm giving it to you." After a pause, he continued, "I don't have anyone in my heart."

Wang Simeng wanted to say something else.

Mo Mingxuan said, "Si Meng, since my uncle said he's giving it to you, just keep it. It's not expensive anyway. Besides, my uncle is rich."

"Haha, I don't want anything else. I'll just accept the light pink one." Wang Simeng stopped being pretentious and directly took the light pink lantern, her favorite one, and touched it.

Mo Beichen and Mo Mingxuan, one took a purple lantern and the other took a blue lantern.

Seeing that Wang Simeng liked this light pink lantern, Mo Beichen's mouth curled up slightly. He exchanged glances with the shopkeeper of the lantern shop. The shopkeeper nodded slightly and put away the other lanterns.

Few people know that the real owner of this lantern shop is the current regent, Mo Beichen.

Wang Simeng walked towards the street holding a lantern. She touched the light pink lantern as she walked. Mo Beichen and the other man followed closely behind Wang Simeng, half a step behind her. The two of them stood on her left and right, protecting her.

Wang Simeng didn't notice any of this.

This is the first time I have received a gift from a boy since I was born. Wang Simeng was moved.

Wang Simeng didn't know whether she was mentally young or had low emotional intelligence. Others started dating in junior high school, but Wang Simeng was still single, and she just thought they were good friends among classmates.

They go to and from school together because their homes live close to each other.

After graduating from junior high school, Wang Simeng learned from gossip among classmates that they were in a relationship before.

When Wang Simeng entered high school, besides studying, she only thought about playing with her friends near her home. What did they play? Hide and seek, skipping rubber ropes.

When I saw boys and girls playing together, I just thought they were getting along well. Later, I heard my deskmates talking and realized that there were so many classmates in the class who were dating.

When she was in her senior year, some boys would ask Wang Simeng's classmates for her contact information, invite her to play with them, or send her home after school. But Wang Simeng's idea was, I want to study hard and make progress every day.

All in all, Wang Simeng has never received any gifts from boys.

Wang Simeng walked along the way holding a lantern in her hand, looking back from time to time to chat with Mo Beichen and Mo Mingxuan, and had a lot of fun.

Gradually, more and more people came onto the street. The crowd became denser and denser.

Wang Simeng and the other two walked for a long time before they reached a river.

There were many people writing and releasing lanterns by the river.

“Wow, so many lanterns!!” Wang Simeng exclaimed.

"Do you like it?" Mo Beichen asked.

"I like it. There are so many lanterns. They are so beautiful." Wang Simeng said excitedly. Then she pressed the camera button on her left wrist and took a few photos.

Mo Beichen didn't see what Wang Simeng did.

"Let's light lanterns too." Mo Beichen said to Wang Simeng with a smile.

"OK!"

The three of them found a place with few people, squatted down and prepared to write their wishes, only to then remember that they didn't have a pen. Mo Beichen was about to stand up to buy a pen, and Mo Mingxuan was about to find someone to borrow a pen.

Wang Simeng quickly called the two of them and took out three markers from her cross-body bag, actually from the space.

Wang Simeng squatted by the river. The river was full of various beautiful lanterns, which reflected Wang Simeng's rosy cheeks and made her look very beautiful.

She held the marker high, and waved it at Mo Beichen and the others while smiling.

Mo Beichen felt his heart beating very fast and quickly touched his heart.

Thinking in his heart: Could it be that I have a heart disease? Mo Beichen frowned slightly in thought.

"Okay, let's start. I'll write the wish." Wang Simeng said to the two of them with a smile.

Wang Simeng's voice interrupted Mo Beichen's thoughts.

"Okay." Mo Beichen took the pen from Wang Simeng's hand with a smile.

"Okay, let's write together." Mo Mingxuan also took a marker pen with a smile and started writing.

Wang Simeng wrote the words "Peace in the World" on the lantern.

"Okay, I'm done writing." Wang Simeng looked up at Mo Beichen and the others.

"I've finished writing it too." Mo Beichen said.

"Yeah, me too. I've finished writing it too." Mo Mingxuan smiled and gently shook the lantern in his hand.

"Then let's put them into the river." Wang Simeng was the first to squat by the river and put the lanterns into the water. He reached back and pressed the camera button on his left hand a few times.

Such a beautiful lantern, and it's the first time a boy gave it to me. I must take a photo as a souvenir, Wang Simeng thought.

The lantern did not float forward, so Wang Simeng took another step forward, intending to reach out and push the lantern forward. Suddenly, the soil under his feet loosened, and his body fell towards the river.
