They set out again.
Night had fallen completely, and the light show was about to begin. This was probably the climax of the Lantern Festival, and its most spectacular moment.
A great throng of people stood together, surrounded by noise and excitement.
"Brother Jiang, do you think boys and girls can have a purely platonic friendship?"
Maybe it was because she'd seen Zhao Qiuluo at the milk tea shop. Shen Guoguo couldn't help connecting her own older sister, Jiang Linyuan, and Su Muzhi.

Jiang Linyuan nodded.
"Then... then what about you and Sister Wanyu!?"
Shen Guoguo suddenly grew agitated,
