up-to-date novels are published on lightnovelpub[.]com

Besides Ye Mu and the Silent Master, there were many men and women gathered here.
The men racked their brains to solve the riddles on the lanterns, just so they can make their lover smile.

The most beautiful lantern was made from colored glass and had a white bottom.
It looked simple yet elegant.
Many people wanted the lantern, but none of them were able to correctly solve the riddle.

The riddle that was written on the lantern:

A pair of mandarin ducks played in the water while the butterflies longed for flowers.

The monarch had many wives, but who will manage to end up as his one true love?

The red bean roots yearned to grow, but in its previous life, it was planted in a concubine’s heart.

They will wait for the day they will finally meet, so they can enjoy spring, summer, autumn, and winter together.

T/N: It rhymes in Chinese and sounds much more romantic in Chinese.
I loosely translated it, so it’s not 100% accurate.

It was a complicated and long riddle.
The riddle seemed more like a love poem than a riddle.
Many people failed to guess the correct answer to the riddle, so they could only move on and guess the riddles on the other lanterns.
After all, there were many other lanterns here.
Although some of the lanterns were ugly, the riddles on them were simple and easy to answer.

But the Silent Master refused to leave the beautiful lantern without guessing the right answer! He stood there meditating and pondering.

Ye Mu couldn’t help but tugged on his sleeve and said, “Give up.
It would be strange for a monk to correctly guess the answer to a love riddle.”

Everyone was either discussing the riddles or bustling around, so no one heard Ye Mu’s words.
They only took notice of the Silent Master’s appearance and decided to stand in front of the beautiful lantern along with him.
As more time passed, more people crowded around due to the Silent Master’s beautiful appearance.
Ye Mu barely had any place to stand as she was pushed around by the crowd.

The Silent Master was sullen, “Why have I never heard of these riddles before?”

He had solved many riddles in the past, but he had never heard of a riddle like this one.”

What did ‘seeing one’s true love in the reflection of the water, but not being able to express your feelings’ mean?

What did ‘it’s difficult to stay together until the dawn of time, but there was no time for them to express all their love for each other’ mean?
