40: Chapter 40 The Last Fireworks

Xu Qianqian had long been impatient; she had no desire to watch the rest of the show.

All she wanted now was to pull Xiao Ran away and spend some intimate time together!

The young girl's steps were light and firm, her nine tails swaying continuously.

The two arrived at the entrance of the auditorium, only to be blocked by a torrential downpour.

Xu Qianqian was on the verge of tears.

"Xiao Ran, it's raining so heavily, what should we do?"

"Let's wait a bit longer. June rain comes quickly, so it should also pass quickly."

This sudden heavy rain was too unexpected; the June weather forecast was unreliable!

The rain drizzled on, showing no signs of stopping.

The two of them sat on the steps, heads close together, whispering.

Xu Qianqian wasn't as rushed anymore.

This seemed quite comfortable too, didn't it?

Half an hour later.

The torrential rain turned into a fine drizzle.

Xu Qianqian stood up, her face filled with surprise, somewhat impatient.

"Xiao Ran, let's go!"

Xiao Ran was a bit speechless.

What time was it?

She was so eager to drag him to a hotel, completely undisguised.

Did she not understand what romance was?

"Qianqian, no rush, I still have a surprise for you!" Xiao Ran held her back.

"Ah? There's more?"

"Mm, wait a moment."

Originally, Xiao Ran had planned to set off fireworks after the party, but now it wasn't necessary.

Moreover, there was still a blind girl waiting for him deep within the campus.

He had promised to visit her.

The sooner it ended, the better!

Xiao Ran went aside and made a phone call.

"Can the fireworks be set off now?"

"Anytime!"

"Does the rain affect them?"

"There's no real impact, and it can even reduce pollution, but fewer people will see them. Are you sure you want to start now?"

No impact is good!

He checked the current time: 20:55.

"In 5 minutes, let's start at 9 o'clock!"

"Understood!"

After hanging up, Xiao Ran returned to Xu Qianqian's side.

At this moment, she was feeling a bit restless; she didn't know what surprise her brother had for her next.

She even had a bold idea in her heart!

'Is Xiao Ran going to propose to me?'

'Should I just say yes?'

'Can everything be settled tonight?'

'Can Mom and Dad hold their grandchild tomorrow?'

Under the dim lights, shyness hid in the corners of her eyes, and a faint blush appeared on her jade-like cheeks.

Xiao Ran pulled her to sit on the steps, the light shining on her, seemingly coating them both in a pink halo.

"Qianqian, the surprise is coming soon!"

"Uh huh ~"

At 21:00,

Xiao Ran pulled the girl to her feet.

Looking towards the night sky ahead,

A star trailing flames quietly ascended.

The next second,

"Dong ~"

Colorful brilliance illuminated the entire night sky.

Like countless stars, they sparkled brightly.

The softness of the drizzle and the splendor of the fireworks complemented each other, creating a unique kind of romance.

"Xiao Ran!"

Xu Qianqian nestled into his embrace, her delicate body trembling, her eyes misty with tears.

Was this her brother's surprise?

It was wonderful!

The shimmering light dyed the crystal tears with vibrant colors.

"Wuwuwu ~~ Xiao Ran, I love you!" Xu Qianqian choked with sobs.

Xiao Ran gathered the young girl's fragrant shoulders, his lips moving slightly.

"Qianqian, I also ~ love you!"

'...Right?'

The fireworks attracted many people out.

"Wuwuwu ~! So romantic!"

"So they came out early just to be romantic!"

"I wish I had a love like that too!"

They no longer had their previous frenzy, nor their previous jealousy.

May this pair of lovers,

Be forever united, until forever, and ever!

...The ten million yuan worth of fireworks lasted for half an hour.

The fine drizzle had long stopped, leaving only the scent of gunpowder.

"Xiao Ran, is it over?"

"Mm, it's over!"

"Then let's leave!"

"Mm!"

Hand in hand, the two slowly walked into the night, their figures gradually blurring in the dim light.

The Full Moon Ceremony,

Ended!
