"The commercial street of Anyang City is holding a lively lantern parade, laughter and people. Across the street, the hustle and bustle suddenly fell silent, and it seemed even more cold.

There are pairs of lanterns scattered along the river, mostly young couples snuggling and whispering. Xia Zhi was alone carrying a lotus lantern, no matter how she looked at it, she felt miserable, and she was betrayed by the light of the lantern, so it was easy to notice. Therefore, it is better to get rid of it quickly.

When I walked to the riverside bridge, I happened to see Luo Ying standing in the middle of the bridge with her on her back, still dressed in black, watching the river flow in a daze, completely isolated from the bustle of the outside world.

Xia Zhi walked next to Luo Ying, stood side by side with him, and watched the river flow eastward with him in his posture.

Luo Ying glanced at Xia Zhi and said with a smile,

Summer solstice returns.

Luo Ying continued to talk around.

Hey? Are you willing to cooperate? Xia Zhi looked at Luo Ying with some surprise, and the latter turned his head, as if attracted by the lantern in her hand.

Luo Ying was not polite at all.

Xia Zhi didn't dislike his lotus lantern at all, and was very satisfied to bring it up to show off to Luo Ying, Xia Zhi said while unloading the lantern guard along with the rope, and held it in the palm of his hand with one hand.

Luo Ying raised her eyebrows and watched her performance quietly.

Xia Zhi said, handing him the red rope tied to the handle of the lantern, Xia Zhi heard this from people, and the same set flickered.

Luo Ying hesitated for a moment, but still took it, learned to wrap the red rope in a ball like the summer solstice, put it in the palms of both hands, and then closed his eyes and made a vow.

Xia Zhi opened one eye and peeked at Luo Ying next to him, and he was really serious about making a wish. Hehe, it seems that his flickering skills are still okay, or Luo Ying really has something that he can't do on his own. It's like the summer solstice now, suddenly a little desireless, what to make a lot of money, buy a big house, these suddenly lost the attraction they should have for her now, and she feels dispensable. If the wish is not so strong, making a wish is just a perfunctory thing. Xia Solstice closed his eyes again, and said silently in his heart,

The two tied the red rope to each of the lotus lanterns, and then each held a corner of the lantern and put the lotus lantern on the water. With a gentle push, the lotus lantern carried the wishes of the two people, and drifted slowly downstream with the river.

Originally, there was only one lotus lantern fighting alone in the river, but the people on the riverside saw the lanterns floating down, and they sent their lanterns into the water one after another, chasing the lotus lanterns. It turns out that on the dark river, more and more lanterns appear, decorated with stars, as beautiful as the Milky Way on the horizon.

The summer solstice overlooks the lotus lantern that bears the brunt of the distance, expressing considerable relief.

Luo Ying corrects the analogy that the summer solstice has no aesthetic sense.

Xia Zhi himself is very satisfied.

It was still early, and the two simply watched others put lanterns by the bridge. The big night is the benefit, the light is more obvious in the dark, other than that, it's all dark shadows, no one is much better than the other, how much worse, anyway, I can't see clearly. The cool breeze blows, the lanterns in the water flicker and flicker, the fragile and strong maintain a small light, and the brilliance of the convergence should not be underestimated.

Luo Ying asked suddenly.

The summer solstice didn't show an obvious preference.

Luo Ying fell into memories and brought out the image.

Xia Zhi tilted his head and thought about it. Oh, I remember, I made an appointment with Luo Ying, who I had just met, to meet, but after waiting for a long time no one came, the lotus flowers that I picked were about to wilt, so I removed the flower stems and put the whole lotus back on the water. The shape looks similar to tonight's lanterns, so it's no wonder that it will arouse the other party's response. This person, today is either reminiscing about the past or looking at the river alone, and he has always been depressed.

Xia Zhi laughed.

Luo Ying said with a smile, but there was no joke in his tone.

Xia Zhi didn't know how to answer, so he just stayed quietly by his side, waiting for Luo Ying's next words. Or he doesn't say it, in fact, the summer solstice is not reluctant.

After a while, Luo Ying threw out a question.

Xia Zhi thought about it, nodded first, and then shook his head again. Luo Ying didn't say it explicitly, so what she thought was just her own guess from beginning to end.
