The driver sped away in the magic car.
As though fleeing for his life, he drove so fast that he vanished from sight in no time.
Luo Chuan and Yao Ziyan did not pay it any mind. They were now by the sea.
Waves crashed against the reefs, fine white spray glittering like stars beneath the bright moonlight as the cool sea breeze swept over them.
Only the distant roar of the waves reached their ears, perfectly meeting Luo Chuan's earlier requirement of "quiet."
"This feels so familiar. I think we've been here before." Yao Ziyan walked to the railing and gazed out over the vast sea.
"That's Blackstone Port Restaurant." Luo Chuan pointed into the distance.
Yao Ziyan looked in the direction he indicated. Dim lights entered her view, diminished by the distance until they were barely noticeable.
"Mm... it's an all-you-can-eat place. Boss, do you want to go over?" Yao Ziyan asked.
"Didn't we just eat?" Luo Chuan shook his head, then noticed the night sky. "The fireworks are starting."
Before his voice had even faded, dazzling light bloomed in the black sky. Multicolored sparks spread outward in rings, resplendent and eye-catching.
That was only the beginning. More varieties of fireworks blossomed afterward, shining against the brilliant stars.
"So beautiful..." Yao Ziyan looked up at the distant night sky and murmured in awe.
Fireworks were fleeting. They lasted only a few seconds, yet in that brief span, they displayed a beauty that belonged to them alone.
The night breeze was faintly cool.
The sound of the waves seemed to have vanished, leaving only the endless crackle of fireworks in their ears.
Luo Chuan looked at Yao Ziyan beside him. Her robes swayed slightly in the breeze, and the fireworks in the night sky were reflected in her pupils.
