Grand Fireworks

Mei, with her light makeup, was stunningly beautiful. Her purple strapless dress resembled a wedding gown, fitted at the top and wide at the bottom, with a voluminous skirt that covered her legs. Only when she moved her legs could her transparent crystal high heels be seen.

Firstly, I'm not used to being looked at by others, and secondly, I'm in a laboratory and rarely wear this kind of clothing.

Mei blushed slightly.

Seeing Kevin standing there in a daze, the "old married man" nudged him with his shoulder.

"Mei, you look so beautiful today."

Kevin blurted it out.

Mobius felt that the sentence sounded familiar. After thinking about it carefully, she realized that it was the first thing Yaqing had said to her after they met.

Does this mean all men share the same brain?

"Xu Song wasn't lying to me after all; purple really does have a certain charm." Little Knowledge nodded.

"Who is Xu Song?" Vill-V asked.

"A singer from Shenzhou," Fu Hua replied.

Upon hearing Kevin's stunned words, Mei chuckled, and her previous tension vanished instantly.

"Kevin, why are you still so silly?" Mei laughed.

Kevin chuckled and scratched his head.

Eden made a gesture, deciding to leave the dressing room to Kevin and May. Everyone quietly left, including Kalpas and Kosma, who hadn't even set foot in the dressing room.

Kalpas is not interested in women.

Kosma was simply shy.

Only Kevin and May remained in the dressing room.

Kevin was completely oblivious to the others who had left; his eyes were completely occupied by Mei.

Mei lifted her skirt and sat down on the sofa. Seeing Kevin still standing there in a daze, she patted the soft sofa and said, "Sit down, what are you standing there for?"

Kevin sat down next to May.

He felt incredibly fortunate and grateful, thankful that Yaqing had prepared everything for him, which made him decide to propose to Mei.

"Kevin, do you remember the last time I wore a tuxedo?"

Nine years ago today.

Kevin blurted it out.

That was the freshman welcome dance. As a sophomore, Mei wore a formal gown for the first time. It was on that day that Kevin and Mei met, and it was also the first time that Yaqing and Mobius met.

"I remember that back then you were the school's recognized 'Prince Charming,' and the girls surrounding you included freshmen and seniors."

Mei joked with a smile.

Kevin took May's hand.

"But you will definitely be my last dance partner."

Chapter 298 Grand Fireworks

Kevin and May chatted about the past, from school to graduation, from work to the present, with smiles constantly on their faces.

Everyone says that a relationship that lasts from student days to marriage is enviable. Kevin suppressed his inner impulse, and for a brief moment, he thought of taking out the ring from his pocket and proposing to Mei.

But then she remembered Yaqing and Eden's arrangements and forced herself to hold back.

Meanwhile, in the break room next door, separated by only a wall, Little Knowledge and his group were peering over the wall, eavesdropping on the sounds coming from next door.

"Why is there no sound?" Little Knowledge asked, puzzled.

"There should be no sound~~?"

What kind of sound do you want?

Vill-V and Elysia replied in unison.

"Both of them are not here. Can you tell me your arrangements now?" Mobius sat on the sofa in the lounge.

Yaqing and Eden exchanged a glance, and both shook their heads at the same time.

"What are you hiding now?"

Blanca held little Griseo's hand.

Little Griseo and Rin then changed into princess dresses.

However, Griseo's dress has a more childish color scheme.

Sakura resisted the urge to eavesdrop with them by pressing her face against the wall; for her, gossip was far more likely to capture the fox's interest.

"We'll keep this a secret from Kevin and the others."

Sakura was dressed differently from the other girls; she wore a pink cherry blossom kimono, which made her look very ladylike.

"You'll find out tonight."

Yaqing continued to keep it a secret.

As evening approached, with half an hour to go before the concert began, the ticket checkpoints started checking tickets, and the audience gradually began to enter. Eden made his final preparations for going on stage.

"Go, Eden!"

Elysia cheers Eden on.

Eden showed no sign of tension; she was probably used to such scenes.

Eden wasn't nervous, but Kevin was, his palms sticking out.

Eden has taken the stage.

They also left from backstage.

The concert stage was outdoors, with a view of the stars in the sky. The lights were dazzling, and the crowd was noisy. The audience watched Eden on stage with excitement, and the lights emitted by the golden light sticks looked like a sea of stars.

"Eden! Eden! Eden!"

The name of Eden was shouted from the mouths of tens of thousands of people, deafeningly.

The tickets Eden gave to Yaqing and the others were the most urgent VIP seats, in the very front row, allowing them easy interaction with Eden, and the price started at least in the hundreds of thousands.

Elysia leaned over the railing, cupped her hands to her mouth like a megaphone, and shouted Eden's name along with the other spectators.

"Eden is really famous."

Pardo was amazed.

She never paid attention to celebrities. Looking at the incredibly excited audience around her, she regretted that if she had known the ticket was so expensive, she would have put it on her own website to sell earlier.

"Of course! The anime song that Yaqing composed was sung by Eden. People online were saying: 'Honkai is really something, managing to get Eden to sing it.'" Hen said with a big laugh.

For this concert, Eden chose two songs from the Honkai series to intersperse in the performance schedule.

"Befall" and "Nightglow" are two completely different songs, one grand and majestic, the other tear-jerking. Many fans of Eden, who are not interested in anime, have chosen to get into the Honkai series.

Eden is a global superstar, a symbol of this era.

Like a gemstone sparkling with starlight, it radiates a dazzling light.

Eden's concert was nearing its end.

The audience was still not satisfied.

As the flashbulbs shone on Eden, she grasped the microphone and said softly, "Today is not only my concert, but also the most important day for one of my friends."

Eden's words silenced the entire room.

Apart from Yaqing and Su, who had guessed a little, everyone else was completely bewildered.

Mei seemed to have remembered that today was her birthday.

"I think we should leave the stage to him; he wants to hear something she said that has long been buried in his heart."

Eden had barely finished speaking.

The flashbulbs shifted from Eden to Kevin and May, who also appeared on the big screen, visible to the tens of thousands of concertgoers.

Mei looked completely bewildered.

Before Mobius could react, Yaqing pulled him to lean on her shoulder.

"What are you doing?" Mobius asked in a low voice, clearly annoyed.

"Senior, I told you I'd be showing you a surprise."

Yaqing whispered in Mobius's ear.

Just as Yaqing raised her head, Kevin seemed to have made up his mind. He stood up, knelt on one knee in one smooth motion, took out a ring box from his pocket, opened it, and the diamond ring sparkled under the flash.

Kevin looked at Mei with longing in his eyes, his face resolute.

"Mei, marry me."

Mei was stunned.

Kevin's words instantly ignited the emotions of the entire audience, replacing the previous silence with excitement and chants.

"Marry him! Marry him! Marry him!"

Yaqing counted down in her mind.

3...2...1

As the countdown ended, countless fireworks were launched into the sky almost simultaneously, exploding into dazzling patterns, their colorful flames dominating the dark sky.

It's like a shooting star streaking across the sky, or a waterfall cascading down the Milky Way.

The fireworks display at the very back of the stage served as the main attraction. When they exploded in the sky, they were nearly half the size of a football field, which was both amazing and made people wonder about the cost.

All residents of Changkong City can enjoy this fireworks display.

At this moment, the atmosphere at the scene reached its climax.

All attention was drawn to the proposal.

Mei covered her mouth.

Moved by Kevin, I shed tears.

"I do."

Kevin was overjoyed by May's reply, and even forgot to put the ring on May's finger.

He only realized what was happening when he saw Mei's outstretched hand.

But then I was stunned.

Having not done his homework beforehand, Kevin didn't know which finger to put the ring on. He made up his mind and gently slipped the ring through Mei's left ring finger.

Kevin stood up and hugged Mei tightly.

"I think this concert will end perfectly in their love story," Eden said with a smile. "I wish them a long and lasting love, and that they will never be apart."

A hint of envy flashed in Mobius's eyes.

Although Yaqing promised her the grandest wedding, she couldn't help but feel envious when she saw Kevin propose to Mei.

After all, she was already thirty years old.

How many thirty-year periods does one have in a lifetime?

Yaqing grasped Mobius's hand and held it tightly.

Mobius leaned on Yaqing's shoulder.

"You arranged this fireworks display for Kevin, didn't you?"

Yaqing nodded, without denying it.

Kevin's financial resources were simply insufficient to support him in putting on such a fireworks display.

Unbeknownst to Mobius, the ring that Yaqing had prepared for her was given to Kevin.
