She is a heartthrob who wants to live a good life

It was getting dark, and Shen Weicang was humming a little tune as he strolled along the busy street.

If Wen Guihan hadn't held her hand tightly, she would have disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Today is the ninth day of the first lunar month. According to the custom in Luozhou, the ninth day of the first lunar month is the birthday of the Jade Emperor. Tonight, the Jade Emperor has finished his inspection tour on earth and is returning to heaven.

Red lanterns and bustling stalls can be seen everywhere on the street. The festivals in Luozhou are very different from those in Qingzhou. Shen Weicang finds everything new and interesting.

Shen Zheng walked on the other side of her, Wen Guihan held her right hand, and he also held her left hand vigilantly.

Shen Weicang felt annoyed and pushed one person away with one hand, looking unhappy: "There are already many people on the street, and I feel uncomfortable walking when you all hold my hands."

Wen Guihan spoke first:

"Cang Cang, there are so many people here, and you are unfamiliar with the place, it would be safer if I hold your hand. Many people go missing during the festival every year, and it would be bad if you were taken away by the flower boy."

As he said that, he glanced at Shen Zheng and said, "Cang Cang feels uncomfortable, then the Fifth Young Master should not go to the trouble of holding her hand. I am enough for you."

Shen Weicang remembered what Wen Guihan said about some people specifically knocking out children or women in such lively times and selling them for money, so he didn't say anything more and tacitly allowed him to hold his hand.

Shen Zheng clenched his fists and stared at Wen Guihan's back with cold eyes.

If it weren't for the fact that he shouldn't cause trouble now and Cang Cang also needed one more person to protect him, Shen Zheng really wanted to kill Wen Guihan directly countless times.

He knew in his heart that he was no match for Wen Guihan, and he had even prepared poison.

Shen Zheng exhaled a breath and endured it.

Shen Weicang stood in front of a small stall. On the shelves hung several rows of masks of various shapes. Some were exquisite and gorgeous, while others were ugly and strange.

She picked up an evil ghost mask out of curiosity, and the vendor said, "Ouch!" "Girl, what are you doing with that? Try this one, it suits you better."

He handed over an exquisite mask made of gold, inlaid with gemstones and decorated with tassel beads.

Shen Weicang was more interested in the evil ghost mask. He grabbed Wen Guihan's sleeve, wiped it, and put it on his face: "How is it? Is it scary?"

Her voice was a little muffled, and the demon mask covered her entire face, leaving only her eyes shining in the light of the street.

Wen Guihan looked into her eyes with a soft gaze: "Even if Cang Cang is wearing this evil ghost mask, I am not afraid. I know Cang Cang is a gentle and kind girl."

Shen Weicang rolled his eyes.

"Oh, I'm so scared," Shen Zheng happened to catch up and showed a frightened expression when he saw Shen Weicang.

"Sister, why are you wearing such a mask? It scares me to death."

Wen Guihan's mouth twitched slightly. Shen Zheng's tone was too exaggerated. He wanted to kick this man away.

Shen Weicang was very pleased with it and raised his chin: "Go pick a mask, I'll pay for it."

Shen Zheng glanced at Wen Guihan, then stood in front of the stall with a smug look on his face and picked up a demon mask, which was obviously the same as Shen Weicang's.

My sister wears this evil ghost mask to scare people. Wen Guihan is such an idiot that he can't even figure out what his sister is thinking.

Wen Guihan: “…”

He bought the mask that the vendor had just handed to Shen Weicang, and hurriedly followed her to persuade her gently: "Cangcang, you wear this."

Shen Zheng snorted: "Can't you tell which one my sister likes? Why are you forcing her to wear what you bought?"

Wen Guihan ignored him and continued to explain to Shen Weicang: "There will be a festival on the street tonight, and you will be beaten if you wear an evil ghost mask."

Shen Weicang was incredulous: "Why?!"

"The ritual in Luozhou is to fight ghosts, both to reassure the Jade Emperor and to boost the morale of the people. Every year, some people are organized to wear masks and perform the ghost-fighting ceremony."

Wen Guihan said: "Of course, if the people want to participate, they can buy their own masks and put them on to perform."

He said with a hint of joking, "But apart from those who are designated, few people are willing to spend their own money to buy masks to play the role of evil spirits."

Shen Weicang hurriedly took off the mask, threw it into his arms, and said unhappily: "No wonder there are so many evil ghost masks left."

Shen Zheng's face turned dark, and he also wanted to take off the mask. Wen Guihan glanced at him and said, "Fifth Young Master, are you going to take off the mask? This is a gift from Cang Cang. How can you take it off and disappoint her?"

"Wen Guihan," the young man said in a cold voice, "Stop gossiping in front of me. Why is I such a petty person?"

Shen Weicang was impatient: "Don't use these good and bad words to control me, both of you put them on."

"Wen Guihan, why didn't you tell me earlier? You had to wait until I bought the mask to tell me all this. Is there a lot of things you haven't told me about tonight's ceremony?"

She blinked her eyes and started to argue again: "If anyone dares to hit Zheng'er tonight, you must protect him. It's all because of you that he has to wear this mask and get beaten."

Wen Guihan didn't have time to argue with Shen Zheng, and immediately explained: "No, Cangcang, I wanted to introduce it to you while we were having fun tonight, I didn't mean to hide it."

Shen Weicang threw down two words: "I don't believe it."

She walked towards another stall selling small lanterns. Wen Guihan and Shen Zheng looked at each other, kicked each other at the same time, and then endured the pain and hurried to catch up.

At the hour of Hai, fireworks were set off in the night sky. A team wearing various masks walked onto the street, holding torches in their hands. The torches touched each other, and strings of sparks flew up.

Shen Weicang, wearing the tassel mask, stood in the crowd and looked at them in amazement. These people seemed to be very skilled. She could feel the heat while standing by, but they still held the mask steadily in their hands.

Several men and women wearing masks of gods performed a set of boxing techniques while holding torches. The torches continuously emitted dazzling sparks and were thrown at the evil spirits.

Wen Guihan and Shen Zheng wore evil ghost masks, and the gods treated them equally, regardless of whether they were worn by the people themselves or were designated to wear them.

There was a lot of noise and noise. Shen Weicang saw one of the men wearing a mask of a god swinging a whip that caught sparks. The whip instantly turned into a fire whip, which looked dangerous but also made people unable to take their eyes off it.

A torch was also stuffed into her hand, and from time to time people wearing masks of gods would come up and collide with the torch in her hand, igniting hot sparks.

Shen Weicang was a little scared at first, but later found that the sparks didn't seem that scary, so he started chasing Wen Guihan and Shen Zheng to fight.

There were too many people on the street, all wearing masks, and soon she chased the wrong person. Two evil ghosts followed her, and she chased the other evil ghost and beat him.

"on fire!"

Suddenly someone screamed, "It's on fire, run!"

I don't know who lost control of the torch and it hit the lantern stall on the street, lighting a bunch of lanterns and immediately causing flames to shoot up into the sky.

Wen Guihan and Shen Zheng were originally following not far behind Shen Weicang. When they heard the scream, their hearts sank suddenly, and they simultaneously rushed towards Shen Weicang.

But the crowd became chaotic and tried to escape in panic, running in all directions. Shen Weicang quickly disappeared in the crowd.
