Chapter 750 (1/2)
Captured (2)
“Mm, pinky promise!” Ye Lang extended his pinky at the little princess.
“Hmmph, we’re not kids anymore…” The little princess pouted, as if in contempt. However, she quickly also extended her little finger and hooked on his.
“The pinky promise is done! You cannot break a pinky promise!”
“Come, let’s continue with our fireworks! We must use up all our stock today…”
“Alright!”
Ye Lang and the rest started to release fireworks once again. Their laughter and chatter echoed across the lake. Ye Lanyu was very happy. She didn’t feel like she wouldn’t get this again though, they would have more opportunities to be happy in the future.
She wasn’t appreciating this moment as much as the little princess and Little Zero, who were savouring the moment of being able to be together.
After today, she would start to fear and regret that she hadn’t savoured this as much. She would fear that this might be her last memory…
And after this, she would start appreciating every moment with them because life was too unpredictable. Anything could happen at any moment. Even people she often met - that could be the last time she saw them. They could disappear in the next moment.
She did not want to live in regret, so she must appreciate every moment!
However, this was in the future. Right now, Ye Lang and the group were happily lighting fireworks right until they used up all their stocks. They played games for a while and then went back to their respective rooms to sleep. That was how their day ended.
This firework show lasted for one hour and twenty minutes. Based on Seventh Brother’s calculations, Ye Lang must’ve spent about two hundred thousand gold coins on this. Of course, since he had made these himself, it was a little cheaper. But still, it was definitely one to two hundred gold coins.
After the fireworks ended, the people of Ye City were still mesmerised and took a long time to snap back to reality. Many still stood outside after the show ended.
Many people secretly hoped for the fireworks to come on again. Although it was not likely, they waited hopefully.
Dear fireworks, please bloom again! We’re waiting for you!
This was what everyone wished for, though there was one exception.
“Stop the fireworks, I’m begging you! Stop it all!” prayed Seventh Brother in the direction of the sky above Vast Moon Lake, muttering to himself.
“Get the heck out!”
Everyone glared at him, badly wanting to hit him- including Seventh Aunt.
“...”
In the end, the fireworks stopped. Many were disappointed but they did not think they had no chance to see this again. As long as Ye Lang was here, they believed it was only a matter of time before the next.
This was a kind of comfort after their disappointment, though it was not logically flawed at all!
…
“Don’t do this! Honey, you’re going to be very cold sleeping alone!” yelled Seventh Brother.
