He waited quietly outside, waiting for her to come out, for her to finish her business, for her to come out and stand in front of him again.

He did not ask her why she was here, nor did she ask.

"Accompany me to a place." Pei Ruochen said as she took her hand.

Her lover was also self-conscious, allowing him to lead her towards the main street.

That kind of harmony and serenity was as if they had just separated yesterday.

Pei Ruochen's steps were light, and it was almost impossible to hear his footsteps as she walked on the stone steps.

Her steps were heavy and a little messy, but she followed his rhythm the whole time.

Pei Ruochen stopped in front of a large house.

The door of the house was already closed. On the top of the door, there was a huge official seal with the words' Division of Smoke and Fire 'written in large letters.

Pei Ruochen let go of her lover and told her to wait on the street while she climbed up the stairs and knocked heavily on the door.

Not long after, a voice filled with regret rang out from within the door. The gatekeeper rubbed his eyes and pulled open the door, but just as he was about to curse and curse, his expression turned into one of incomparable flattery, "Master Pei, it's already so late, why are you …."

"Smoke, I want all of your fireworks here." Pei Ruochen cut him short.

The concierge was stunned. He turned around and shouted to the others to get up.

Her lover waited outside quietly with his left foot touching his right foot. He looked a bit nervous, but his expression was calm.

After a while, Pei Ruochen walked out. She was holding a big bag with her hands free, and he held her up.

"Do you still remember where you stopped me that day?" As they walked, Pei Ruochen asked with a smile on her face.

He was referring to the matter of his lover stealing the bride when they were first married.

Yi Ren tilted her head as she thought about it, then looked around again. Suddenly, she realized that they had arrived at that place.

There, Pei Ruochen was dressed in bright red clothes. She lowered herself from the horse and said lightly, "Go back, my beloved."

Would he say the same thing again?

However, this' ifs', neither of them thought about it.

He had already missed it, and that would be forever missing it.

There was no if.

"I've always missed you from that day." Pei Ruochen said as she opened the bag and took out all the fireworks in it. Then, she placed all of them in a circle. It was a big circle that extended from the street corner to the street corner.

"Want to play?" Pei Ruochen blew on the fire sickle and passed it to her lover.

Her lover looked at him.

The starry sky remained the same, and the moon remained the same. Regardless of whether it was the stars or the moon, they were all cold colors.

It was a perfect face, gentle and gentle, like a child of God.

Her lover reached out and picked up the fire sickle.

Then, just like a child setting off firecrackers on New Year's Eve, she suddenly cheered up and pointed her way over, one by one, crouching down, raising her butt and running from one end to the other.

Flames hissed in the darkness.

After she finished lighting the fire, she quickly blew out the fire sickle and ran to Pei Ruochen's side. She covered her ears with her hands with a face full of joy.

Pei Ruochen turned her head to look at her, and revealed a gentle smile like the spring wind.

'Bang! 'a loud sound was heard.

All the fireworks bloomed together.

The starry sky suddenly lost its color.

They were in the light.

Her lover raised his head, opening his eyes wide in amazement.

Countless flames rose up, fell down, and rose up once again. The resplendent light before her eyes was extinguished.

Pei Ruochen's gaze never left her face.

The flame in his eyes was the reflection in hers.

Multicolored light filled her face, reflecting her extremely pure happiness. Such a beautiful picture was the truest form of happiness that Pei Ruochen could touch.

It turned out that this was the color of happiness.

He smiled, finally looked away, and looked up at the sky.

The first round of the firework had been completed, and the second round was once again resounding through the sky.

The stars and the moon merged with the flame in the sky, causing it to be hard to tell whether it was the sky or the earth.

Her heart was shocked as she looked at the beautiful scenery that did not seem to belong to the human world. She wanted to express something with her words, but realized that words were lacking.

She just watched, smiling, staring at him.

Pei Ruochen wore a smile on her face as well. However, that smile was light and distant, incompatible with the brilliant scenery around her.

When the third round of firework was about to be ignited, Pei Ruochen suddenly spoke.

"Are you happy now, lover?" he asked.

The lover turned to look at him.

Pei Ruochen under the starfire, had a kind of sad and obsessive color. She was as light and beautiful as a ink painting, so beautiful that it didn't seem real at all.

"You must be happy, you know?" Pei Ruochen didn't wait for her reply. She only calmly smiled and answered her own question.

"Right." She turned her head back and continued to look at the beauty that could not be described, even if it were a few thousand years of poverty.

Pei Ruochen continued to look at her, at the soft side of her body, at the hidden billows under her long eyelashes, at her slightly pouting lips, and at the bright color.

He suddenly wanted to kiss her.

The last time, perhaps, was the last time in his life.

He wanted to kiss her.

Pei Ruochen leaned forward slightly, and he could almost hear her breathing clearly. However, that kiss finally became the regret of his life.

"My beloved!" At the other end of the street, beyond the firework, an exasperated voice suddenly sounded.

Pei Ruochen moved away.

He turned around and accidentally saw He Lan Xue.

He Lan Xue's forehead was covered in sweat as she panted heavily. The anxiety on her face had yet to fade.

— When he returned to his room, he found his lover gone. God knows how anxious he was.

She asked the gatekeeper, who was also confused as to whether she had gone out or not.

He Lan Xue looked for her crazily. During this time, he made countless plans, thinking that his lover ran back to Yan Han's side, thinking that his lover was scared off by his confession, thinking that she was in danger, and even thinking that He Lan Chun had kidnapped her.

Every possibility was something he did not wish to see.

He searched back and forth in the inn for a long time. The more he searched, the more flustered he became.

Until he saw the fireworks over here.

— In fact, he was not the only one who saw the fireworks.

Within the capital, there were many people who were still in a deep sleep, but were awoken by such a loud noise. Then, they opened the doors and pushed open the windows, and they saw a scene that they might never be able to forget for the rest of their lives.

How many young couples and how many young and old people were pointing at each other in front of the house, discussing in low voices.

Many girls in the girls' groups began to compose stories that they took for granted. They were guessing which young man set the world ablaze for his lover.

It was a beautiful night.

Sleepless night.

With a sullen face, He Lan Xue wordlessly stepped over the firework, over the debris on the ground, and walked in front of Pei Ruochen.

Her lover saw him, too, and she was not surprised. She smiled at him, then continued to gaze greedily at the beautiful scene before her.

"Your Highness." Pei Ruochen wasn't too surprised, but his countenance remained as calm and unperturbed as ever.

He turned his body to the side and stood between Pei Ruochen and her lover. Staring at Pei Ruochen, he enunciated each word clearly, "She is mine. Stay away from her in the future."

Pei Ruochen was not angry, she only raised her head to look at the flames which were slowly dissipating, and said indifferently, "Your Highness has already received the news that the King is coming to the capital. The capital city is probably not peaceful these few days. Your highness needs to take care of himself. "

He did not expect He Lan Xue to remind him otherwise. He was a little surprised, but he didn't say anything.

"The empress dowager's illness isn't normal. It's abnormal for He Lan Qin to bring troops to the capital while visiting." Pei Ruochen continued, "This capital city will soon no longer be as peaceful as it is now."

After he finished speaking, he didn't even wait for He Lan Xue to respond. He took a step back, bowed to him, and then looked deeply at his lover.

His wife had already retracted her gaze and was looking at him with a wide smile.

They didn't say anything, but they did.

"Goodbye." Pei Ruochen left these words in an extremely unrestrained manner. With a flick of her sleeve, she turned around and left under the afterglow of the fireworks.

No matter how resplendent the flames were, there was still a moment where they could be eliminated.

The beauty that filled the world quieted down bit by bit.

Pieces of debris fell from the sky and landed on Pei Ruochen's body.

When his figure completely disappeared, the world returned to silence.

The floor was filled with the scent of gunpowder.

That was the truth of the resplendent.

He Lan Xue kept watching Pei Ruochen leave, but her hands were already holding her lover. With a slightly domineering manner, she pulled her into her embrace.

When Pei Ruochen no longer saw him, he lowered his head and looked at the person in his arms reproachfully.

His face was filled with anger, like that of a sulking child.

Her lover was quietly leaning on his chest. Her eyes, which were always lacking in sleep, were bright and clear.

"In the future, you're not allowed to think about Pei Ruochen anymore." He Lan Xue looked around at the fireworks in the air. Her heart started to panic. "Such a beauty, such a Pei Ruochen, will she capture the heart of her lover again?"

"In the future, he won't think about me anymore." Her lover quietly replied.

He looked at her inquiringly.

However, she raised her head and revealed a trademark smile. It was simple and clean, with a hint of heartlessness.

"A Xue." she called to him.

"Eh?" He Lan Xue was still hugging her, not letting go in the slightest.

"After we're done here, come with me to see Yan Han." His wife said, "Let's go see Yanhan together."

At first, she was confused, but then she was overjoyed.

Meeting Yan Han together, did that mean she had finally decided to face him?

"After we're done here, come with me to see Yan Han." His wife said, "Let's go see Yanhan together."

"Alright, after this is over, I can accompany you anywhere." "Yes!" She then tightened her arms and ruthlessly rubbed them together. "Remember, I can accompany you anywhere, but you can't act on your own." After a pause, he continued to ask, "Aren't you in the room? "How did we meet Ruochen?"

"..." I came out to look for the latrine. " That is the truth.

He Lan Xue made a face and then smiled. "Even if you want to go to the latrine, you have to let me accompany you!"

Going to the latrine and meeting his old lover was just too dangerous. It seemed like he could not leave even after a short while.

His wife scratched her head and gave an 'oh'.

It was already past midnight, and it was still a few hours before daybreak.
