Chapter 246 - Special Chapter 1 (1/2)

While Kai Xin was at the twins' birthday party, An Qi Yan went out on a date with Sima Erden. They went to the beach to get some fresh air.

"Erden, do you still remember the last time we came to the beach?" asked An Qi Yan as she twirled around him like a young maiden.

Sima Erden smiled as his eyes followed the movement of her aura.

"Of course I do. That was the last time I see your face..." replied Sima Erden with a wistful smile.

An Qi Yan smiled wryly. Both of them remembered that trip. Against her parents' arrangement for her to meet a potential future husband, they escaped for a moment and went to the next town with the intention to visit the graves of Sima Erden's parents.

Once they were done paying their respects, they hung out around the area and it was then that they found out that there was a fair by the beach. Since Sima Erden had never been to a beach before, they decided to go for a visit.

Sima Erden remembered the face of An Qi Yan as she played with the games at the fair. Even though his eyesight was at its' worst by then, he would exchange everything he had now just to see her smiling face again.

.....

"Erden! Erden!"

Sima Erden watched as An Qi Yan ran towards him with a bouquet of daisy. She took his hand as she explained, "I won this bouquet from the vendor! I'm going to give it to you!"

Taking the flowers, Sima Erden laughed softly as he pretended to admire them. With a gentle smile, he pointed out to her, "You know. Guys are the ones who should give girls flowers."

"Yeah...but you are so dense! It would take you forever before you know what I want..." said An Qi Yan shyly before she dragged him through the crowds.

Holding the flowers close to his chest, Sima Erden asked, "Where are we going?"

"To get a better seat by the beach! The vendor said there would be a fireworks show and I really want to see it."

"Fireworks..." thought Sima Erden sadly. Ever since they met, he had been trying to escape watching fireworks with her. Every time she invited him to a fireworks show, he would find an excuse to reject her.
