BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1056 I AM...
The festival provided a unique experience, with various ice carvings showcasing both traditional and modern themes, creating a magical atmosphere for attendees to explore and enjoy.
As the sun set, the festival came alive with the illumination of the ice sculptures, casting a radiant glow across the gorge. The play of lights and shadows added to the festival\'s attraction, turning it into a picturesque and captivating winter wonderland.
Luo Jin had never been to the place, but based on the reviews he found online, it was a great spot for couples to go to. Since they had already exerted themselves during the morning with all the skiing and snowboarding, it\'s just right to take it slow and looked at ice sculptures. As an art major, Su Yuqi would definitely appreciate it too.
They arrived at the Longqing Gorge Ice Lantern Festival just half an hour before three. If they weren\'t riding a motorcycle, it would have probably taken them a lot longer to go there because of the traffic.
After parking, they quickly went to line up. Luo Jin actually tried to get VIP tickets, so they wouldn\'t have to line up like this, but unfortunately, they\'re only offering it during the weekends. Good thing the line wasn\'t too long today, maybe because it\'s the weekdays. Due to that, they were able to get in after only waiting for 15 minutes.
The first thing they saw when they entered were the flower lanterns on both sides of the road. These lanterns would definitely look amazing during the night.
"Which one should we go see first?" Luo Jin asked Su Yuqi.
The place had many attractions to see. From his research, there were usually more than 400 ice and snow sculptures here. The most impressive ones are those portraying temples, palaces, and, of course, the kids\' favorite: ice castles, which one could walk into.
In addition, visitors could also skate here. There were even programs like folk dancing being held on the central stage. One of the most popular attractions was the Flower Cave, which was a must-see for everyone who had gone here.
Since there were so many places to see, he wanted Su Yuqi to be the one to pick which area they should go to first. Even if he did some research, he\'s still clueless as to which one would be the best. So, it\'s better if Su Yuqi could just pick for the both of them.
"Let\'s just see everything as we go," Su Yuqi answered simply.
Luo Jin nodded, agreeing. That\'s probably the best way to enjoy the place.
And so, the two started their journey.

On another side, another couple was also enjoying strolling around the Longqing Gorge Ice Lantern Festival. But unlike the other who seemed like they hadn\'t really started a relationship yet, this particular couple was just oozing with sweetness.
Luo Yan was hugging Shen Ji Yun\'s arm while looking around. Even though he had already seen quite a lot of ice sculptures since they got here, he still felt very amazed seeing the new ones they encountered.
As they walked, some people they passed by glanced twice in their direction. Which was only natural. Not because they were two guys walking arm in arm, but because smiled and then teased.

both of them were just that attractive. Not that he\'s being arrogant, he\'s simply telling the truth.
"Yan Yan, do you want some roasted chestnuts?" Shen Ji Yun asked.
Luo Yan turned to where Shen Ji Yun was looking and saw a stall selling roasted chestnuts. Seeing that, he didn\'t even think and just pulled Shen Ji Yun towards the stall.
The one selling the roasted chestnut was a homely looking middle-aged woman. As soon as they stood before the stall, she gave them a hearty smile. "Oh, what a pretty and handsome couple you both are."
She must have mistaken Luo Yan for a girl. Luo Yan didn\'t mind though, because what he said was the truth. Shen Ji Yun was handsome, and he\'s pretty. He hugged Shen Ji Yun\'s arm and put his head on the other\'s shoulder.
"We look good together, right, Auntie?" he asked, smiling brightly at the other.
The woman laughed heartily. "Yes, indeed, you are. But... why does your young man seem not happy?"
Luo Yan looked at Shen Ji Yun. The other had his usual frozen expression, but the blush at the tip of his ear suggested that he\'s actually feeling very shy right now.
"Oh, he\'s very happy, Auntie. He\'s just shy. Right, Brother Ji Yun?"
Shen Ji Yun gave a stiff nod.
"Is that so?" She turned to Shen Ji Yun. "Then, young man, you should smile when you\'re happy. Especially when you have such a pretty young lady with you."
Shen Ji Yun scratched his cheek awkwardly and then cleared his throat before saying a muffled \'yes\'. Luo Yan chuckled at that.
They bought a large bag for the two of them to share. And then they continued their walk.
Luo Yan ate a chestnut, the sweet and nutty taste filled his mouth. He turned to Shen Ji Yun, then thought back to the conversation they had with that auntie earlier. He smiled and then teased.
"Aren\'t you glad this pretty \'young lady\' is yours?"
"You\'re not my \'young lady\'." Shen Ji Yun lowered his head and kissed Luo Yan\'s temple before whispering, "You\'re my young man."
Luo Yan giggled before putting a piece of chestnut in the other\'s mouth. "I suppose I am that. Then, what about you? What should you be?"
Shen Ji Yun lifted Luo Yan\'s hand and kissed the back of it. "I am simply yours."
That drew a smile on Luo Yan\'s lips. He gave Shen Ji Yun\'s cheek a quick peck. "Yes, you are that."
