The two of them disappeared from the basketball court amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd.

Ji Qinglan, her hand held by Xiao Bei as they ran, looked ahead at him leading her, a smile playing on her lips.

The setting sun cast their shadows long before them.

He was running, she was chasing, and he couldn't escape.

Soon, they ran out of the campus.

Xiao Bei turned his head to look at Ji Qinglan.

Ji Qinglan looked at Xiao Bei with a smile, then took out a tissue from her bag.

Extending her delicate hand, she gently wiped the sweat from Xiao Bei's face.

She playfully chided him, "You're running right after military training? Aren't you tired?"

"Not tired at all, because you're behind me!"

Xiao Bei let Ji Qinglan wipe his sweat.

"Where are we going now?"

Ji Qinglan asked Xiao Bei with a smile, seeing his silly expression.

"Come on, I'll take you somewhere!"

After speaking, Xiao Bei grabbed Ji Qinglan's hand and headed towards a nearby residential area.

"Where are we going?" Ji Qinglan asked, puzzled.

"Just follow me."

Without explaining, Xiao Bei quickly led her to a fireworks shop.

"Boss, I want five barrels of fireworks."

The boss, who was lounging in his chair, fanning himself, suddenly saw a handsome man and a beautiful woman walk in and order five barrels of fireworks at once.

He immediately put down his fan and greeted them with a smile.

"Young man, are you sure about five barrels?"

The boss asked again, and Xiao Bei nodded with a smile.

"Wife, here are my car keys. The car is parked in the lot nearby. Can you go get it for me?"

Xiao Bei handed the car keys to Ji Qinglan. He called her "wife" very naturally.

Ji Qinglan instinctively took the car keys, glanced at Xiao Bei, and without asking further, went to get the car.

After Ji Qinglan left, Xiao Bei spoke to the boss, "I pre-ordered yesterday. Is it ready?"

"We were just waiting for you. I thought you weren't coming. How was it? Did the performance yesterday give anything away?" the boss asked, looking at the college student before him with a smile.

"No, it was perfect!" Xiao Bei chuckled.

Actually, Xiao Bei had seen the fireworks shop yesterday on his way back to school.

He had decided that if Ji Qinglan came to find him today, he would confess his feelings.

So, opportunity always favors the prepared.

Xiao Bei didn't care if it would be successful today; it was always good to be prepared.

Therefore, he had ordered five barrels of specific fireworks there yesterday.

He even paid extra to ensure they would be ready today!

Soon, the boss brought out five large barrels of fireworks.

"They're numbered. Arrange them in order, with a one-meter gap between each, and light them simultaneously!"

The boss said to Xiao Bei with a smile, and Xiao Bei nodded.

After waiting for 10 minutes, Ji Qinglan drove Xiao Bei's car to the shop entrance.

Xiao Bei and the boss directly loaded the fireworks into the car's trunk.

When the boss saw the car, he knew the young man before him was no ordinary person.

"Do you want to drive, or should I?"

Ji Qinglan got out of the driver's seat and asked.

"You take the passenger seat, I'll drive!"

Xiao Bei opened the passenger door, and Ji Qinglan elegantly got in.

Xiao Bei got into the car after Ji Qinglan, and once inside, he still fastened her seatbelt for her.

"So, where are we going now? We can't set off fireworks in the city!"

Ji Qinglan said with a smile, looking at Xiao Bei.

"Also, how did you think of setting off fireworks?"

Ji Qinglan looked at Xiao Bei again, her eyes full of anticipation.

She wanted to know if that was the answer.

Xiao Bei started the car and said as he drove, "Because you mentioned in your Moments that you wanted to set off fireworks once. From now on, anything you want to do, I want to do it with you."

Xiao Bei's tone was very plain, but to Ji Qinglan, it sounded incredibly firm.

Sometimes, a girl's Moments posts were actually a form of hint.

Some guys were dense and wouldn't think too deeply about it, but Xiao Bei was different. Who was he?

Just by looking at Moments, one could see the details.

Why did girls dislike nice guys and prefer bad boys?

Was it really because bad boys were more handsome?

No, it was because bad boys handled details better.

Therefore, when dating, one should adopt a bad boy's mindset.

Xiao Bei had been thinking about where to set off fireworks yesterday.

Based on his memories from his previous life, Xiao Bei knew of a Qiantang River Embankment nearby. It wasn't one of the famous ones, but a disused one that no one usually went to.

It was also a place Xiao Bei had found as a private spot when he was in a bad mood, and it was conveniently close to Hangcheng University.

Soon, the car arrived at a small road.

Weeds grew wildly on the sides.

"Aren't you afraid I'll sell you?" Xiao Bei asked playfully as he drove.

"I'm not afraid, because I know you wouldn't bear to!" Ji Qinglan rested her chin on her hand, looking at Xiao Bei with eyes full of tenderness.

Ji Qinglan's personality was actually quite good. She either didn't love, or when she loved, she loved wholeheartedly, without being hesitant.

Hearing this, Xiao Bei reached out and intertwined his fingers with Ji Qinglan's.

Soon, the car arrived at the embankment. It was already dark, and the surroundings were silent. This embankment had no streetlights, making it very dark.

Xiao Bei directly turned on the car's headlights.

He turned to Ji Qinglan and said, "Get out of the car. I'll take you to set off fireworks!"

Ji Qinglan nodded with a smile, a little excited!

After getting out of the car, Xiao Bei directly carried the fireworks out of the car in order and placed them together.

Then, he connected the fuses together.

"Why connect them together? Can't we light them one by one?" Ji Qinglan asked with some confusion.

"Because I know magic. This way, it'll look better when it goes off. Do you trust me?" Xiao Bei said to Ji Qinglan with a smile.

Ji Qinglan squatted beside Xiao Bei, looked at the fireworks, then looked at Xiao Bei, and nodded.

After Xiao Bei finished connecting the fuses, he beckoned to Ji Qinglan.

Ji Qinglan came to Xiao Bei's side.

Xiao Bei hugged Ji Qinglan from behind, holding her hands with his.

"I'll count to three, and then you light it!"

"Mhm, okay!"

Ji Qinglan felt the warmth of Xiao Bei holding her, and her heart felt warm.

Ji Qinglan held the lighter, and Xiao Bei began to count: "Three!"

"Two!"

"One!"

Then Ji Qinglan directly flicked open the lighter.

Xiao Bei held Ji Qinglan's hands and quickly brought the flame to the fuse.

As the fuse ignited, they saw it split and head towards five fireworks.

Almost at the same time, the two of them stood up.

Xiao Bei hugged Ji Qinglan from behind and whispered in her ear, "Watch closely, I know magic!"

"Mhm," Ji Qinglan replied shyly, and then five fireworks shot towards the sky.

Fwoosh fwoosh fwoosh fwoosh fwoosh~

After five sounds, five fireworks shot into the air almost simultaneously.

Bang bang bang bang bang~!

The fireworks bloomed in the sky. When Ji Qinglan saw them, she turned and looked at Xiao Bei in disbelief.

Her eyes turned red!

As the fireworks burst open, the words "Xiao Bei Loves Qinglan" appeared in the sky!

"Do you like it?" Xiao Bei asked, holding Ji Qinglan and speaking into her ear.

Ji Qinglan didn't speak. Instead, she took out her phone and recorded it. Then, she turned and passionately kissed Xiao Bei.

With one hand, she also took a photo of the two of them.

Ji Qinglan's actions were her response to Xiao Bei! At this moment, their kiss sealed their love!
