Chapter 111: Fire Tree Silver Flower
The lights and shadows are longing, shining with the stars and the moon.
Light singing and dancing, there is wine in the future.
"What do you always think I'm doing?" Xie Jingyao was eating a snack, but there was always someone watching her eat, a little uncomfortable.
"I'm sorry......" Rong Hao lowered his head.
It was only when Xie Jingyao was concentrating on eating that he dared to stare at her for a while, but now he was recognized.
"You eat too, don't just watch me eat." Xie Jingyao pushed the two plates of pastries in front of Rong Hao.
"Ah, thanks, I'm not hungry." Rong Hao had already eaten enough, and he also admired Xie Jingyao's thin and small appearance, and he could eat so much.
"That...... Miss Xie, although I don't know your previous identity, I ...... Know that you are a good person. "Oh my God, what are you talking about, Rong Hao secretly slapped himself in his heart.
"Huh?" When Rong Hao said this, Xie Jingyao also felt a little puzzled.
"I can see that you are a person who wants to do great things, and you will not stay in the ...... of the Tongyou Sect forever," Rong Hao considered his words.
Rong Hao was not wrong about this, Xie Jingyao nodded.
"I mean...... If...... If you don't dislike it...... I can help. In the end, it was still not clear, Rong Hao was a little depressed, and waited anxiously for Xie Jingyao's answer.
"Okay." Seeing Rong Hao's stumbling appearance, Xie Jingyao smiled and replied very happily.
"Really?" Rong Hao was overjoyed.
"You...... You just help me and take care of myself. Xie Jingyao said with some sadness.
"Miss Xie......" Rong Hao looked at her who was suddenly sad, and didn't know what to say.
Xie Jingyao is also very helpless, she has been displaced since she was a child, self-reliant, never thought of letting others help her, and never expected someone to help her.
When Rong Hao said this, she was also at a loss.
The two looked at each other like this, and they were a little embarrassed.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Here comes the lotus cake!" Xiao Erduan came with a plate of dim sum, "The characteristics of the small shop are given by the boss." ”
"Okay, thank you." Xie Jingyao took this plate of very chic dim sum.
With lotus leaves as the base, the lotus petals are wrapped layer by layer, and the center of the flower is a transparent red bean horseshoe cake, which has tender yellow flesh and carrot carved small goldfish as decorations, like a small lotus pond.
Xiao Er's voice also interrupted the silence of the two.
"This lotus cake looks pretty good, try it!" Xie Jingyao motioned for Rong Hao to move his chopsticks.
Rong Hao didn't postpone this time, and put one into the bowl.
When you bite into it, it is smooth and crispy, and the lotus fragrance lingers between your lips and teeth, which is really delicious.
"It's delicious." Rong Hao exclaimed, "It's just that there are still lotus flowers in this season?" ”
"This should have been shipped further south." Xie Jingyao said.
"I see." Rong Hao nodded.
"Let's eat, I want to watch the fireworks when I'm done." Xie Jingyao said.
"Okay." Rong Hao listened to Xie Jingyao's instructions and hurriedly feasted.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The streets are full of pedestrians, all looking for a good spot for the next fireworks display.
Rong Hao and Xie Jingyao, as martial arts masters, naturally didn't have to be so troublesome, they found a good location with a wide field of vision - the roof.
Xie Jingyao also packed some food in case of emergency.
"Boom!" The first sound of fireworks exploded.
It is a big red peony, and when it falls, it turns into a golden chrysanthemum, and it falls one by one.
Then three pink flowers bloom one after another, and two concentric flowers bloom, and a hundred flowers bloom in unison.
The beautiful fireworks dazzled the people, and cheers and applause filled the streets.
Xie Jingyao held her cheeks and watched the fireworks bloom one by one, and it was rare to smile like a child. That's a bit of a busybody, right?
Rong Hao was relieved to see her so happy, not like she was worried just now.
"Why do you say that?" Xie Jingyao asked suddenly.
"Huh?" Rong Hao was surprised.
"That's it...... You said you wanted to help me. ”
"Oh, this......" Rong Hao's face flushed, but fortunately, the light of the fireworks flashed and couldn't be seen.
"What?" Xie Jingyao looked at him and asked again.
"That's it...... I...... You ......" Rong Hao blamed himself in his heart for not being angry, he was usually a very bold person, how could he not be able to parry when he met Xie Jingyao?
"If you don't say it, forget it." Xie Jingyao seemed to see something, and deliberately turned her head to the side.
"I said, I said......" Rong Hao took a deep breath and plucked up the courage to say, "Because I want to protect you and don't want you to get hurt." ”
Xie Jingyao raised her eyebrows slightly and tilted her head to look at him.
"I want to ...... I want to protect you for the rest of my life! "Get out! Rong Hao gritted his teeth and said loudly.
"Huh......" Seeing him say it, Xie Jingyao was stunned and came out with a hot breath.
"I'm sorry, I ......" Rong Hao looked at her like this, blaming himself for being too abrupt.
"You don't need to tell me I'm sorry." Xie Jingyao smiled instead, "I believe in you." ”
"Really?" Rong Hao was overjoyed.
"It's just that I've never needed anyone's protection, and no one has ever told me that." Xie Jingyao said without any emotion, "When I was a child, my father and mother abandoned me, I worked in the troupe, and suffered inhuman abuse, I never thought that someone would come to save me, or escape, I thought maybe my life would be spent like this, right?" Later, my adoptive father rescued me, taught me to learn skills, supported myself, asked me to do things for him, and helped those in need, and I felt that I had some meaning in living. ”
Xie Jingyao's life experience is also so tragic, so she will become what she is today, right? Rong Hao actually felt that he couldn't see through this girl more and more, what did she want? Maybe she doesn't know it herself, right?
"It doesn't matter, I respect your opinion. You...... Don't be embarrassed. Rong Hao had no choice but to say so.
"Maybe I'll need some time." Xie Jingyao looked at the continuous fireworks in the air and muttered.
"As long as you're happy...... That's it. Rong Hao said.
"Don't say you're unhappy, come, eat!" Xie Jingyao handed Rong Hao a chicken leg.
"Good!" Rong Hao couldn't help but be infected by her, so he took the chicken leg and gnawed it.
Maybe this seemingly strong girl is too lacking in security, so she has to use the pleasure of eating to prove that she is still alive, such a simple happiness, let him guard it in the future.
------------------------
"The fire tree and silver flowers are closed, and the iron lock of the star bridge is opened. The dark dust goes with the horse, and the bright moon comes one by one. Yu Tear Rainbow recited the poem about the Lantern Festival, which was very appropriate for the occasion.
Bai Qiuchi and Yuyuhuihong were also watching fireworks, and it was a coincidence that Baiqiuchi also brought Yutearihong to the roof.
"So the roof is like this." Yu Tear Hong was very excited, when Bai Qiuchi flew up with her in her arms just now, she was a little scared at first, but then she felt extremely happy.
The winter wind was blowing on her face, but she didn't feel cold at all.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Fireworks flickered and exploded.
Bai Qiuchi looked back at her side face, and under the flickering reflection of the fireworks, it became more and more beautiful. Long eyelashes, big smart eyes, and colorful fireworks blooming in the eyes.
"Brother Chi, the fireworks are so beautiful." Feather Tears smiled and said, "This is the most beautiful and clear fireworks I have ever seen." When I was younger, I used to look at it in the yard, and I couldn't finish it, and it was a very small one. Brother Chi, thank you for taking me to see such beautiful fireworks. ”
Bai Qiuchi also saw fireworks for the first time, and he also said happily, "It should be said that you took me to see such beautiful fireworks, I haven't seen fireworks in the mountains yet, it's really beautiful." ”
"And what are you doing in the mountains?" Feather Tears was curious.
"We don't have any toys there, but we have a beautiful view." Bai Qiuchi recalled, "We Tongyou faction are on a mountain, and there are different scenery throughout the year. The green mountains and green waters are our playmates, with flowers blooming in spring, gurgling water in summer, maple leaves in autumn, and snow in winter. ”
"I haven't been far away yet, so I'd like to see it." Feather tears are full of yearning.
"I'll take you to see it when I have a chance."
"Good! Definitely. ”
"Are you hungry?" Bai Qiuchi asked.
They had been out for a long time, and Tear Rainbow was weak, perhaps hungry.
"When you say that, you're a little hungry." Feather Tear smiled embarrassedly.
"Here you go." Bai Qiuchi took out a small bag from his arms.
Yu Tear Rainbow took it and opened it, it was a steaming pastry, smelled it, and couldn't help but say happily: "It's so fragrant." ”
"I don't know if you like it or not, I just bought some before I came up."
"Like! Brother Chi, you eat first. Yu Tear handed it back again, "You must be hungry too." ”
"Let's eat together."
"It's fine."
-------------
The night breeze is blowing, the lanterns are swaying, the fireworks are singing and fishing, and the fireworks are gorgeous.
In this special Lantern Festival, everyone silently makes a wish in their hearts.
"Brother Chi, what wish did you make in the lotus lamp?" Yu Tear asked as she ate her pastry.
"Me? I don't have any special wishes, so I wrote to fulfill your wishes. Bai Qiuchi said a little embarrassed.
"Really? Thank you. The corners of Yu Tearhong's mouth couldn't help but rise.
"And what did you wish?"
"It's a secret!" Yu Tear Hong smiled.
Brother Chi is really a good person, Yu Tear Hong thought secretly.
People revel in the fireworks and linger in the lights, but the lively lantern festival will eventually end.
The lights gradually went out, and the feather tears and rainbows all went home.
Tonight, Yu Tear Rainbow slept very peacefully, and her dream was exceptionally beautiful. She dreamed of her mother Yan Ruyu, they danced together in their dreams, ate snacks together, played games, and she also introduced Bai Qiuchi to Yan Ruyu...... I wish I hadn't woken up.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The next day, Rong Hao and the others set off to return to the Tongyou faction.
"Qiuchi, you have to take care." Rong Hao explained to Bai Qiuchi.
"I will, senior brother, take care too." Bai Qiuchi held Rong Hao's hand and was reluctant to let go for a long time.
In the Tongyou faction, Rong Hao is like his elder brother, who takes care of him very much and teaches him a lot.
In the end, Rong Hao quietly called Xie Jingyao aside.
"Miss Xie...... Jing Yao...... Are you willing to wait for me? Rong Hao asked, his eyes flashing excitedly, "I'll come back to you, I'll protect you." ”
"Okay." Xie Jingyao answered very easily, just like her person, chic and casual.
Rong Hao was so happy that he almost jumped off his horse in excitement.
"What is he laughing at? It's silly. Gu Liulin asked Gong Xueyi.
"This kid ......" Gong Xueyi understood, shook her head and smiled.
Recalling Xie Jingyao's words, Rong Hao was smirking all the way, I really hope that such a smile will stay on his face for a long time.
