Chapter 12: Despair

"Ah Sheng, hurry up!" Bai suddenly carried the delicate lotus lantern in his hand, walked through the crowded people on the street, and walked towards the long Wishing River step by step.

"Sister, slow down, there are too many people!" The delicate young man quickly took the small hand and closely followed Bai Suran's footsteps.

"Hmm, if you don't hurry, it'll be too late!" Bai suddenly didn't stop, the slowly flowing wishing river was full of all kinds of lanterns, from a distance, like the sea of fireworks, very beautiful.

"Alas, Ah Sheng, why did you say that there were so many wishes today? Obviously, didn't they all make wishes on the fifteenth day!" Bai suddenly stopped, looked at the dense people in front of him, and spoke in distress, a rare sorrow hung on her little face, making the young man who stopped with her smile softly.

"Sister, people, there are many wishes, so where is the opportunity to make a wish?" Bai Shenghe looked at the crowded surroundings, and put his eyes on the lotus lamp in Bai Xuanran's hand, and his heart was a little mixed.

He knew who this lantern was bought for, but even if he knew, he was a little uncomfortable, because his sister wrote on this note "A glass of wine in the spring breeze of peach and plum, and ten years of night rain in the rivers and lakes".

She was saying that she was willing to wait for ten years for that national teacher who was like an immortal.

Ten years is too long, is my sister really willing to wait quietly without hearing from her?

"Hey, you're still laughing! What are you laughing at, if you can't put this wishing lamp today, this princess will ......" Bai Shenghe suddenly looked at Bai Shenghe, who was distracted but still had a smile on the corner of his mouth, and suddenly became angry, when has this been, this guy is still laughing at her.

"Sister, don't be angry. How could your Ah Sheng have no choice?" Bai Shenghe was suddenly pulled back to reality by Bai Sheng's angry voice, he looked at her angry blue little face, smiled and hugged Bai Shengran's waist, and hugged her tightly in his arms with a volley, and with a light tiptoe, he instantly crossed the vast sea of people and landed on the shore.

"Okay, Auntie forgive you!" Bai suddenly stuck out her tongue, made a grimace, and happily jumped from Bai Shenghe's arms, she looked at the crowd that was still rubbing shoulders, and exclaimed: "Ah Sheng, you are really amazing!"

"Sister, don't make fun of Ah Sheng!" Bai Shenghe looked at the quirky girl in front of him, and laughed dumbly, how could he not know the ghost idea in his little sister's heart, and now the compliments are beautiful, maybe how to trick him later, but so what, as long as his little sister is happy.

"Huh, what's the matter, Grandma is praising Asheng, you see, so many people with us, except for Auntie, are still behind the crowd?" Bai suddenly pointed his finger at the black crowd behind him, and said happily.

"Sister, you better hurry up and put the wishing lantern, let's go back early!" Bai Shenghe looked at Bai Xuanran, who was still joking about his refusal to do business, and shook his head a little helplessly.

He's a sister, and she really plays hard.

There's really no way to take her little sister!

"Okay, okay, Auntie just listen to you, Father is still waiting for us, Auntie knows!" Bai suddenly looked at Bai Shenghe, who was disappointing, and pouted, a little unhappy, but when it came to business, she looked at the wishing lamp in her hand and stopped arguing.

Yes, what she wants to do is the most important thing, and what Ah Sheng said is not wrong.

She was still waiting for the return of the person she had put in her heart.

This wishing lamp is just the hope she has placed her wish on.

"Sister, I'm sorry!" Bai Shenghe knew that this matter had always been the most untouchable scar buried in his sister's heart, and looking at Bai Ran, who was quickly infected by sadness and loneliness, he said in a light voice.

"It's okay, Ah Sheng, my sister is fine!" Bai suddenly raised his head and spoke with relief.

After finishing speaking, Bai suddenly sorted out and arranged the delicate lantern in his hand, looked at it and looked at it, with infinite nostalgia and reluctance in his big eyes, ready to put the lantern in his hand into the clear river water.

But at this moment, a demonic wind suddenly blew from nowhere, and the wind seemed to carry a strong smell of blood, instantly extinguishing many lights in the Wishing River one by one.

Bai Shenghe directly grabbed Bai Ranran's left hand, and was shocked, when he looked at it, his sister's face was already stained with tears.

A low sobbing sound sounded in his ears, and Bai suddenly choked up and muttered to himself: "It's gone, it's gone, it's gone, and it's never coming back!"

When Bai Shenghe looked closely, he found that the candle flame that had been lit in the wishing lamp had been blown out by the wind just now, and many people around him were complaining that the gust of wind had ruined this most beautiful moment, just like the woman in his arms, hope was instantly extinguished.

"Sister, don't cry, wouldn't it be nice to light the lantern when it goes out?" Bai Shenghe couldn't care so much at the moment, so he directly hugged the woman's weak body in his arms and comforted him again and again.

"However, it is gone, and there is no hope. Will he never come back?" Bai Shenghe still held the lamp tightly with his right hand, and looked at Bai Shenghe with pleading eyes in the night, and crystal tears hung in the corners of her eyes, making Bai Shenghe feel distressed.

His sister, such a strong and stubborn little girl, would cry because a lantern went out, how important should that person be in her heart?

"No, sister, everything is not so bad, no!" The young man touched his sleeve and took out the fire sickle that was placed inside, and wanted to remove the lampshade from the lantern, but the woman in his arms refused to let go, and when he lowered his head to look, his sister suddenly fell asleep again.

A few tears were still hanging in the corners of her eyes, slightly pursed red lips, faint eyebrows, and a trace of sadness. Bai Shenghe looked at such a distressing face, and shook her head slightly, even if she was asleep, she was probably unhappy, this time the lantern, she still missed it after all.

In that case, he will do it for his sister.

Bai Shenghe looked at today's night, it was pitch black, if it weren't for the ten thousand lights on this street, how dark would this night be?

He hugged the woman in his arms tightly and called out to a man who had also come to place the lantern, and asked him to relight the candle.

Simply, the person she met was not bad, and she quickly rekindled the candle, and the lantern was picked in Bai Suran's hand, and the red light reflected on her face through the thin cloth, which became more and more beautiful and moving.

Bai Shenghe's internal force poured slightly, his toes touched the ground, and he quickly stood on the surface of the water, and the wishing lamp that was originally held tightly by Bai suddenly fell slowly into the clear wishing river under the support of internal force.

After doing all this, Bai Shenghe looked down at the people who were immersed in sleep and refused to wake up, and turned his direction slightly, heading towards the palace.

Sister's appearance is not a solution, for the sake of today's plan, let's go back to the palace for the time being, after all, my sister ran out secretly, if my father knows, he will definitely be angry again.

It's just that this time, my sister woke up and was afraid that she would be disappointed again.

After waiting for a long time, she still couldn't put it down in person.

Bai Shenghe's back slowly disappeared into the night, and the lotus lamp in the Wishing River that had just been put down by him was extinguished without warning, just like in Bai Shuran's hands, which could never be illuminated.

Because of the fate that is predestined, it cannot be changed......

The Wishing River is still bustling with people, shouting, pleading, and laughing.

The wishing lamp, which suddenly went out, seemed to have never been lit, and flowed down the clear water......
