At his words, Chu Huai Xu looked at Han Shuangjiang, who was frowning slightly, and said with a smile:
"I was just spacing out. You don't seriously think I was staring at you, do you?"
Hah, what an average-looking woman with such confidence!
Well, all right, she wasn't exactly average-looking.
Fine, fine. I admit it—you really are completely my type.
Hearing this, Big Ice Block could not be bothered to answer him and lowered her head to continue drinking.
Seeing that her cup was empty, Chu Huai Xu poured her more wine.
"Boom—!" Fireworks suddenly went off somewhere, though he had no idea where.
During festivals, Dao Sect was always incredibly lively. For all he knew, these fireworks filling the sky had been set off by the authorities to add to the festivities.
Overall, Chu Huai Xu felt that Dao Sect had a strong atmosphere of ordinary human life. It had more of a human touch than an immortal one.
The downside was that it often made him feel that the Dao Sect higher-ups did not look much like venerable experts at all.
The young woman sitting across from him immediately turned her head toward the brilliant fireworks in the sky. Her eyes, hazy with alcohol just moments ago, suddenly brightened.
At that moment, she was so vividly alive. It was clearly nighttime, yet under the reflection of the fireworks, she looked radiant.
It was obvious that these fireworks really had been set off by Dao Sect itself.
Because they were simply too grand.
But that made sense. There was the East Continent Grand Competition, the Mid-Autumn Festival, and so many foreign guests in Dao Sect. Putting on a spectacular fireworks show was perfectly normal.
"Boom—!"
At that moment, the entire fireworks show seemed to enter its climax.
Brilliant fireworks
