Hearing the knock on the door, Meng Zixian and Ling'er were both stunned. Meng Zixian opened her eyes wide, hinting for Ling'er to hide the things under the bed.

She ran to the door and asked cautiously, "Who is it?"

"Me."

Hearing Gu Jing Cheng's voice, Meng Zixian relaxed a bit.

For her, even if no one paid attention to her normally, she would still have to be cautious.

She opened the door and saw Gu Jingcheng, followed by Song Lianhe.

"What are you guys doing here? I don't have anything good here. "

Gu Jingcheng was full of smiles as he took out a big box of food and joked: "I gave you a present, so you can't call it free food."

Meng Zixian was amused. She pretended to be serious and looked at Song Que, "What about you?"

"I won't let you in without a present."

Song Que took out a bottle of wine. As soon as the lid was opened, the smell of the wine drifted over. Meng Zixian immediately felt hungry after smelling it.

"Good stuff!"

Ling'er came out and bowed to the two of them. Gu Jingcheng said, "There's no need to be overly courteous today. I'm just here to eat, drink, and grind. It's just for New Year's Eve."

Meng Zixian stepped aside to let them in.

Inside the box that Gu Jing Cheng brought with him, there were many precious delicacies and a pot of good wine from Song Lihe. Meng Zixian ate happily and drank to her heart's content.

They spread a few cushions on the ground and sat around the brazier, roasting and chatting.

However, after drinking so much, her face turned bright red, and she quickly moved closer to Gu Jing Cheng with her tongue hanging out. "Really, I was just dozing off, but you guys sent me a pillow."

Song Que saw that the two were almost at each other's feet. He frowned and coughed.

Gu Jingcheng also reacted. He used his hand to pull Meng Zixian away from him. Ling'er received the hint from Song Qi He and quickly went over to pull her to her side.

"This is the first time I've been here since I arrived. It's New Year's Eve." Meng Zixian held the wine cup in her hand. It was empty, and she was smiling foolishly.

Song Que and Gu Jingcheng looked at each other. Their eyes were filled with helplessness. Gu Jingcheng said: "She's really drunk. What are you talking about? You said you were going to take her out. I'm afraid now it's not going to work."

Hearing that, Meng Zixian immediately became spirited. He struggled out of Ling'er's embrace and said cheerfully, "What?" Do you want to take me out of the palace? "

She tripped on her own feet and lunged towards Gu Jingcheng. Gu Jingcheng couldn't avoid her, so he was about to stand up to catch her, but his hands were faster.

Song Que quickly got up and wrapped his arms around Meng Zixian's waist. He held her up and said to Ling'er, "Push her down. What a joke!"

Ling'er nodded and quickly supported the person on the bed to rest.

Meng Zixian was asleep, so Song Qishen and Gu Jingcheng didn't want to stay and watch, so they went out.

Song Que said with a slightly reproachful tone: "Why did you come here? "I really watched an alcoholic make a scene."

Gu Jingcheng smiled, "Don't you think that Miss Meng is very interesting?"

Song Que snorted: "It wasn't long before a chess piece was on my board. There's nothing interesting about it."

Gu Jingcheng shook his head helplessly and patted his shoulder: "You don't understand."

"I do not understand. If you had not forcefully pulled me along, Huai Zhi would still be at the banquet. Otherwise, I would not have come."

Gu Jingcheng shook his head and pushed him: "Then quickly go to Jingfei Palace and wait there. Seriously, I'm blaming you for tasting the wine."

Song Que glanced at him and said casually: "I ate an alcoholic."

The two parted.

Meng Zixian woke up after sleeping for a while. Her throat was somewhat thirsty, so she got off the bed to drink. Her mind was filled with thoughts of Gu Jingcheng taking her out.

"Seriously, how about I get drunk?"

Just then, Ling'er walked in. Meng Zi asked about the time. It was still too early for midnight, so she suddenly became excited.

She quickly dashed out of the palace gate and headed towards Gu Jing Cheng's residence.

Very quickly, someone opened the door and welcomed Meng Zixian inside. Gu Jing Cheng was in the middle of reading a book, and seeing that she had arrived, he put down the book in his hands.

Meng Zixian went over happily and asked, "What you said just now about taking me out of the palace, is that okay?"

Gu Jing Cheng looked at her sparkling eyes and looked at him expectantly. His heart softened and he nodded his head.

"Great!"

Gu Jing Cheng looked at her with a funny expression and his heart was filled with joy.

"Tonight, there are fireworks in the city. The fireworks will be released at the turn of the year."

When Meng Zixian heard this, she was suddenly overjoyed. "Really!?"

Gu Jingcheng did what he said, so he had Meng Zi change her clothes and take her out.

The guard guarding the gate tonight was one of his men, otherwise he would not dare to be so impudent.

There was a light outside the palace, and it needed to be on all night to connect to the Long Street.

Before, there were only a few people on the street, but now, everyone had come out. The hawkers were hawking their wares while the children were playing with firecrackers and fireworks.

Meng Zixian's eyes lit up at the novelty. Gu Jingcheng had bought her some fireworks and placed them in her hands.

"Thank you!" Meng Zixian lit up the fireworks. The cremation suddenly came out and the pretty flowers bloomed. At this moment, they happened to meet each other as well.

"Bang!" Smoke bloomed.

Meng Zixian shook her head. The light from the fireworks illuminated her entire face. Her eyes were full of light and her smile was like that of an innocent child.

Gu Jing City turned his head to the side and saw this scene. His heart was moved, and at this moment, he confirmed his thoughts.

He reached out his hand, wanting to place it on her shoulder, but he didn't. He put it aside.

The palace, however, was filled with wine and meat, a group of carefree people, singing and dancing to their heart's content.

Quiet And Steadfast sat quietly to the side, not liking this scene from the bottom of his heart.

Meanwhile, Song Qi, who was sitting on a stool in her bedroom, was quietly waiting for her return.

The fireworks disappeared in the blink of an eye, but Meng Zixian was still reluctant to part with them.

"How about I buy some more and show it to you?" Gu Jingcheng suggested.

Meng Zixian shook her head and said to her, "Watching one fireworks is enough. There's no need to watch another one."

"These fireworks are very beautiful. Thank you for tonight." Meng Zixian was beaming with a smile, holding a rabbit lantern in her hand. It was rare for her to be so obedient.

"Let's go put out the lanterns." Gu Jing Cheng hadn't come back to his senses for a long time, but he heard Meng Zixian say that she was going to put out the lanterns.

"Alright."

Meng Zixian passed by a shop and saw a jade pendant. Although it was a small shop, the jade pendant was translucent and extremely beautiful. It was carved with a small painting.

"I want this."

"Aiyo, the girl has good eyes. She saw this with one glance."

Meng Zixian held the jade in her hand and suddenly realized what she was thinking. She originally wanted to give this to Song Que.

She stood there frozen, holding the jade pendant in her hand. She began to heat up, even her heart was warm.

She suddenly wanted to return to the palace and hand the jade pendant to him, wanted to express her feelings.

In the end, it was still true. He suppressed his impulsive actions slowly.
