A hotel in Shanghai.
National debate venue.
"Zhou Zhou, what are you thinking about?" Li Meiying walked over quietly and sat next to Lin Wanzhou.
The girl raised her head and looked at her.
"Senior."
Li Meiying had already graduated, so logically she shouldn't have participated in debates anymore. However, she was completely concerned about the debate club, so she took a leave from work and came to cheer for Lin Wanzhou and the others in the finals.
"Are you a little nervous?" Li Meiying smiled at her and patted her shoulders twice. "It's okay. Today's result is not important. You've done great. This is the final of the national debate, the place where all debaters dream of proving their faith. Before you, no one from our school had ever led a team here."
The International Language Debate Invitational Tournament has always been regarded as the highest level competition in the debate arena because of its professional competition system, strong judging panel, and participation of debate teams from the world's top universities.
Being the best debater in this competition is enough to leave a name in the hearts of every debater.
"The team from Malaysia is really scary, and you haven't come into contact with a team from there before."
“I’ve seen their videos.”
In the past two decades of development, the debate arena can be said to be a place where hundreds of schools of thought contend, and each has formed its own unique style.
The Malay team that Lin Wanzhou will face today has a different style from the traditional domestic debaters who have a solid academic debate style. They tend to use debate skills, language skills and even strong momentum to win.
It was the rise of this fierce and quick debate style that once destroyed the country's belief in the debate of truth more than ten years ago.
If not for the truth, then what are we debating for?
"Have I ever told you about my sister?" Lai Meiying suddenly said, "My sister's name is Lai Weiqing. You may have heard of her. In 1997, she led her team to the finals of the Sin Ka Po National Debate Competition, where they faced off against the Malay team. That year, people's doubts about debates reached a peak. The topic of the final debate was whether the truth would become clearer through debate."
Speaking of this, Li Meiying smiled.
"Ironically, the debate has reached the point where one has to defend one's own rationality."
Lin Wanzhou didn't say anything. She had occasionally heard about what Li Meiying said, but she had never studied it in such detail.
"That day my sister was on the affirmative side of the competition, which means she had to defend the legitimacy of the debate, and the final result was..."
Li Meiying smiled and said, " They lost miserably. Although my sister won the best debater award, she didn't finally point out the other party's logical trap until the free debate stage. Even so, she was unable to refute the other party on the factual level as the affirmative party."
"That night, my sister and the team known as the Four Golden Flowers had their dreams shattered in Singapore. In the post-match interview, they told the camera that they would never debate again."
“And after that night, many people who once believed in the debate of truth left the debate forever, and those who stayed embarked on the long journey of regaining their values.”
"I was also present at the match that day. Although I was still very young, I saw my sister crying with her hands covering her face. Perhaps it was at that time that a small seed took root in my heart."
"But, I am not very knowledgeable and can't do it myself, so I can only train you." She patted Lin Wanzhou's shoulder, "Come on, Zhou Zhou, you are the best debater I have ever seen. Today, go and defeat them."
“…”
Eyes met.
Lin Wanzhou only felt that Li Meiying, who had always been gentle and generous, seemed to have a raging fire in her eyes at this moment.
She nodded seriously.
"Don't worry, senior sister, I will win this debate just for my own sake."
"I feel relieved when you say that. After this game, I'll reward you... well... I'll reward you by asking your Xu Cheng to take you out to relax."
"???"
Lin Wanzhou almost fainted, "How do you reward me for something like this?"
"I will talk to him for you. He is so busy usually. Doesn't he accompany you? Doesn't he take you out to play?" The raging fighting spirit in Li Meiying's eyes just now was suddenly replaced by gossip.
"No more..." Lin Wanzhou of course had to help Xu Cheng clear his name, "He usually spends a lot of time with me, and we often go out together. We even went to Qingpu together last week."
"Qingpu? What's fun there for you two?" Li Meiying thought for a long time but couldn't figure it out. "Fighting in the wild?"
"Cough, cough, cough."
Lin Wanzhou was stunned. "What are you talking about, senior sister? Be more dignified."
She didn't expect that a senior who looked healthy normally could have such perverted thoughts.
"Oh, sorry."
Li Meiying blushed and picked up the kettle to take a sip.
I felt a wave of regret in my heart. How could I have just had a heart-to-heart talk with Lin Wanzhou and now I accidentally exposed my true nature.
"We went there... to see the trains."
"Cough, cough, cough."
Now it was Li Meiying who was spraying water, "...What are you two doing? Watching the train?"
She was completely shocked. As a social animal, was she really immune to romance and couldn't understand young people?
Watching trains?
What kind of approach is this?
"He didn't go to see the train." Lin Wanzhou said with some embarrassment, "He said he wanted to wait there to see some scenery, but you can only see it if you are lucky. We waited all night but didn't see it."
"The view? The train?"
Li Meiying thought for a while, "What he wants to see, isn't it... a train spewing fire?"
"A train breathing fire?"
"yes."
Li Meiying nodded. "Do you know why a train is called a train?"
Lin Wanzhou was also very smart and guessed an answer.
"Can you breathe fire?"
"That's right." Li Meiying snapped her fingers.
Although she is the president of the debate club, she is more attracted to science and engineering knowledge than liberal arts. Therefore, her debating ability has always been very poor.
"The earliest trains were basically steam trains, so there were two places where gas would be ejected from the train: one was near the power wheel, and the other was the chimney on the top."
"Because trains use furnaces to emit combustion exhaust gas, we usually see white smoke, but if the coal quality is not good and the combustion is not complete, then black smoke will be emitted." Li Meiying explained very skillfully, "Incomplete combustion of carbon dioxide and oxygen will produce carbon monoxide. We have learned this in chemistry."
"......" Lin Wanzhou was a little anxious, "What do you mean by fire-breathing? Why have I never seen a train spit fire?"
"So it's quite rare. Like I said before, if the fire is big and the blower is strong, then there will be flames." Li Meiying put her hands on her notebook and started clicking to search. "This is the same principle as when fire comes out of the chimney in a rural home."
She pointed at the screen and clicked the mouse to show Lin Wanzhou a video.
The video was shot at night. In the center of the camera is a train, which is coming from a distance with billowing white smoke. And just when it is closest to the camera, balls of fire suddenly spurt out from the front of the train, like a sky full of stars, and dots of stars cover the world. A fire dragon dances in the darkness, and sparks scatter in the air, like blooming fireworks, which is instantly stunning.
“No wonder we didn’t see it the whole night…” Even though she only watched a video, Lin Wanzhou was stunned by the beauty of the scene and was speechless.
"Yes, the power of machinery is very shocking." Li Meiying said with a thumbs up.
The waiting time seemed to pass quickly, yet it also seemed very long.
"Lin Wanzhou, it's our turn to go on stage."
After being reminded by the second debater on the same team, Lin Wanzhou hurriedly put away his phone, stopped paying attention to the news from Weibo Night, stood up and took a deep breath.
"Let's go."
Jiaotong University is a science and engineering university, and the four members of the team participating in this competition are actually four girls.
This made many people gasp and they couldn't help but sigh that after so many years, the combination of the Four Golden Flowers finally appeared again in the national debate arena.
Lin Wanzhou went on stage under the instruction of the staff. He glanced at the crowd of people below the stage and didn't see a certain face. He suddenly felt a little disappointed, but then he immediately comforted himself and returned to normal.
"Okay, now the affirmative and negative contestants have entered the venue..."
The host stood between the contestants on both sides, reading out the rules of the competition and introducing the topic of the debate:
"In the best-selling book The Three-Body Problem, there was a concept called thought stamping. This is to implant a belief into the brain so that the brain can believe that a proposition is true without judgment."
"The topic of our final debate this time is, should lovers who decide to spend their lives together put their thoughts on the same page?"
As soon as the debate topic was announced, there were immediate exclamations from the audience.
"Does that mean we can love each other forever?"
“I’ve read this book, it’s quite good.”
"This is a good topic for debate."
"The organizers will make it happen."
"This game is going to be interesting. Who knows, some famous scene might come out."
…
Under the host's direction, the Malaysian contestant on the affirmative side made his statement first.
The first debater was a boy wearing glasses. He started his speech in a very standard Malay style, speaking fiercely and quickly. He quickly grasped the key point of the topic of free will, and based on this key point, he told a short story with strong argumentation.
"The story of Odysseus and the Sirens is very famous. On the way to his destination, there was a siren. Her singing was magical and would attract passing ships that heard her singing. So Odysseus decided to seal his ears with wax, but he wanted to hear the siren's singing, so he ordered the sailors to tie him to the mast and not let him go under any circumstances."
"But when Odysseus heard the Sirens' singing, he first begged the sailors to let him go, then began to give orders, and finally even cursed and banged his head against the mast, but the sailors ignored him until they were out of that sea."
"Do you think the sailor violated Odysseus's free will? On the contrary, he protected Odysseus's free will."
After finishing his speech, the debater sat calmly in his seat, and the audience burst into applause.
"sharp."
"I've been watching this year, and the Malay contestant is indeed the most amazing."
"Jiaotong University is difficult to beat."
“It’s pretty good for an engineering school to get this far.”
…
On stage.
On the Jiaotong University team's side, the second, third, and fourth debaters looked at each other and could see the pressure on each other's faces.
"What should I do? I feel like our argument is a bit weak if we go by what we were going to say."
“Do you want to modify it?”
"Revise on the spot? That's too hasty."
Lin Wanzhou turned around and looked at them seriously. "I want to improvise once, is that ok?"
“…”
The three of them were silent for a few seconds.
"If you think you can do it, then give it a try."
"Come on, Captain!"
"Zhou Zhou, we believe you."
The three teammates clenched their fists. Lin Wanzhou took a deep breath and glanced at the audience again.
Haven't come yet?
"The affirmative side's speech was very interesting. Now it's the negative side's turn to present their arguments. The time limit is three minutes."
Lin Wanzhou stood up from his seat.
"I want to ask you a question first. I wonder if you have ever seen a movie called Inception..."
The girl's voice was neither hurried nor slow.
But these words sounded so familiar to the second, third, and fourth debaters, as well as Li Meiying in the audience.
“…When I, this wake-up stick, snap, everyone, please fall asleep.”
The whole audience was in an uproar, but Lin Wanzhou just looked up and continued to tell his story.
"In the twelfth year of the Tianbao reign of the Tang Dynasty, in 753 AD, Li Mi, the tutor of the crown prince, was framed and demoted by Yang Guozhong. Before leaving, he went to the palace to express his gratitude and met Emperor Xuanzong, and was invited by the imperial concubine to leave."
"And this imperial concubine is none other than Yang Jia Yuhuan, who was the most favored lady in the heyday of the Tang Dynasty."
"The imperial concubine met Li Qin and said: Recently, a minister suggested to Sanlang that if he made an iron scroll and a spell in the Changsheng Palace, he could seal the love between Sanlang and me on a steel seal and stone, and protect us forever. I have heard that you have been practicing Taoism since you were young. Is it appropriate to make a spell and carve a stone to pray for eternity?"
"Li Qin frowned when she heard this. Is your Majesty trying to make love last forever? The imperial concubine nodded. Li Qin asked again: May I ask your Majesty, what in this world can last forever?"
"The imperial concubine thought for a moment: Sanlang's Great Tang Dynasty, my eternal love for him, and... every summer, every first day, every fifteenth day, Chang'an lychees must be delivered to this Xingqing Palace."
"Li Qin asked: Your Majesty, do you know how the lychees have to go through to get to Chang'an and enter the Xingqing Palace? Every summer, the moist soil in Lingnan can only sprout if God has mercy on it and there is no drought or flood or disease or insect pests."
"When the fruit is just about 70% ripe, not too early or too late, the farmer will remove the lychee and its leaves, like a tiny sapling, and place it directly into a large special bamboo tube."
"The bamboo tube has two layers, the inner layer contains lychees, and the outer layer contains freshly frozen ice. There is no time to lose. One man and one horse must gallop, changing men, horses, and ice every 50 miles, and traveling 800 miles on an expedited military post road."
"No matter the wind or rain, no matter who you bump into on the road, the lychees in Chang'an must not stop. It will take ten days of running like this to get from Lingnan to Chang'an, and finally to the Shangsi room, and then to the Empress."
"In a word, the lychees went from the soil to the tree, from the tree to the bamboo tube, from the bamboo tube to the horse's back, from the horse's back to the post station, from the post station to the road, from the road into Chang'an City, and finally to the Shangsi, and then to the hands of the queen and Man Chao's ministers."
"During this period, if the earth collapses, if there are three disasters, if the bamboo tube leaks, if the post officials are a little careless, if the sick people on the road blindly entangle, if the horses are sick, if the Shang workers are slacking off, if the sky is too hot along the road, if the emperor cares about the suffering of all living beings and does not cultivate such beautiful teeth for his own selfish desires, if the censors can write honestly and directly advise the emperor without seeking to protect themselves, if the officials can judge impartially, if anyone on the way dies, then the emperor will be guilty of the same crime as the common people. Your Majesty, where will the Chang'an lychees that must be delivered come from?"
"Buddhism and Taoism all talk about impermanence. In your eyes, each of these lychees is a mission accomplished. In my eyes, they are countless prerequisites, countless opportunities, and countless causes and effects, so densely twisted into a thin thread that will surely break in no time."
"That night, the imperial concubine was immersed in Li Mi's teachings and could not fall asleep for a long time."
"Does she understand?"
Lin Wanzhou asked and answered himself questions. The conference hall in front of him seemed to have disappeared completely, and only the swaying and colorful Tang Dynasty remained.
“I don’t quite understand.”
She shook her head and asked again.
“And when will she understand it all?”
The whole audience was stunned.
Lin Wanzhou said leisurely.
"Two years after Li Mi was demoted, in 755 AD, the An-Shi Rebellion broke out. In June of the following year, the rebels broke through Tongguan, and Xuanzong and his relatives who had taken the lychees fled in panic."
"It was still a night in June, still a summer day, on the barren hill of Mawei Slope, and behind the imperial concubine was a white silk hanging from a tree, the death sentence."
"At this moment, the eternal prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, the everlasting love, and the fresh lychees have all turned to ashes."
"Instantly, the imperial concubine remembered the conversation with Li Mi that day. She understood everything. She understood it completely. Under her tearful face, there was a trace of indifference that was difficult for people to detect."
"Yes, this love that lasts like a steel stamp is nothing but a lychee from Chang'an."
With a clear sound, the wake-up stick fell again, and the scene in front of everyone's eyes changed, as if they had returned to the venue after traveling through the sky. There was no Mawei Slope in front of them, and no elegant, graceful and beautiful imperial concubine. Only the countdown that stopped at 0:01 and the girl who was as beautiful as the imperial concubine was left.
After three seconds of collective silence.
There was thunderous applause.
Even the Malay player on the opposite side couldn't help but applaud for this opponent, this amazing girl.
No one has ever seen this kind of play.
Only people from Jiaotong University had seen this happen once on Xu Cheng.
That time, he was a gangster, relying on abstraction to silence his opponents.
But Lin Wanzhou is art, he is a shooting star, independent and detached from the world, passing through the sky, untouchable, and leaving behind a shadow that is enough to amaze a lifetime, he is a sword move that transcends the mortal world, like an antelope hanging on a horn, leaving no trace.
"Today's national debate produced another famous scene: Chang'an's lychees."
"It's amazing. This girl is amazing."
"I thought of a hundred ways, but I didn't expect Jiaotong University would respond this way. It's amazing, amazing."
"Such a great female debater, what's her name?"
"The debate circle has one more best debater."
In the audience, people were whispering to each other.
In the corner, Lai Meiying could no longer control her tears.
She felt a little regretful that her sister didn't see what happened today.
The truth can still be debated.
It is even beautiful, incomparably beautiful, and as gorgeous as a work of art.
The confrontation continued, but thanks to Lin Wanzhou's three minutes of Chang'an Lychee, which was enough to amaze the entire debate circle, Jiaotong University firmly obtained a higher score from the judges.
"I declare that the final champion of this International Language Debate Invitational Competition is the opposing team, Jiaotong University."
"yeah!"
When they heard the host announce the results, the three girls in the team all jumped up from their seats excitedly.
A happy smile appeared on Lin Wanzhou's lips, with the little canine teeth showing a little bit.
Following the host's instructions, all members of the team walked to the center of the stage and were awarded medals and trophies symbolizing the highest honor.
The host then announced the best debater.
"The best debater of this debate was Lin Wanzhou from the opposing team, National Chiao Tung University."
This result was expected by everyone.
Lin Wanzhou put away his medal and glanced at the audience again.
No……
There was a flash of disappointment in the girl's eyes, but she quickly adjusted herself and gave the camera her brightest smile.
You can be away, but if you see it on TV, you must watch it.
"Let's congratulate Lin." The host came over and said, "We will interview Lin next. I would like to ask a question that everyone is most concerned about and most curious about -"
"How did you come up with the idea of ​​Chang'an's lychees during the opposition's argument?"
The audience, which was noisy just now, suddenly became quiet, including the audience watching the live broadcast. Everyone was curious about what Lin Wanzhou's answer was.
"…I saw my boyfriend do this once before and it was quite enjoyable, so I tried it this time."
The girl faced the camera, her voice still slow and steady, clear and pleasant.
When everyone heard that Lin Wanzhou already had a boyfriend, their hearts were broken into pieces. At the same time, they were curious about this boyfriend who pioneered the abstract school that she mentioned.
"Oh? I didn't expect that Lin has a boyfriend who also loves debate. Is he also a member of your team? Is he here?"
“No.” Lin Wanzhou smiled and shook his head. “He’s just a fan. Today… he wasn’t there either.”
The wolves were furious when they heard this. This guy didn't even stay by her side at such an important moment with such a good girlfriend. He deserved to die.
"Oh, I guess this classmate, even if he's not here today, must be watching Lin's live broadcast and cheering for you. I wonder if Lin has anything to say to him in front of the camera?"
“…”
The whole place was silent.
Listening to such a beautiful girl confide her feelings to her boyfriend is extremely romantic, but also makes people jealous to the point of going crazy.
"I want to tell him ..." Lin Wanzhou blushed a little, looking a little embarrassed.
She glanced at the audience again, but still didn't see the boy.
"Hello."
“I want to eat lychees.”
Everyone laughed, yet felt particularly warm.
I didn't expect that the debater who was so fierce and strong just now actually has such a cute side.
"Listen carefully, male student. You must buy a few more kilograms of lychees for Lin when you go back." The host joked, then thought for a moment and said, "Now that the debate is over, I want to ask Lin a question. Putting aside your position just now, in reality, would you like you and your boyfriend to be stamped with the ideological stamp of love together?"
“Oh~~~~”
The audience got excited again.
This host is really good at asking questions. Each question he asks is more tricky than the last, and no one says a word.
Lin Wanzhou looked somewhere and spoke softly.
"When I was a child, there were some conflicts in my family. After going through those things, I was also shaken and doubted. Is there really long-lasting love in this world?"
"But I can see it in him."
"From our childhood acquaintance to our growing up together, he seems to have always been by my side, taking care of me, protecting me, accompanying me... and liking me."
"So there is no need for ideological stamps or anything like that."
"From childhood till now..."
"He will definitely love me for a long time."
As soon as Lin Wanzhou finished speaking, the audience was already going wild.
"Ah! Or childhood sweethearts?"
"I am such a bitch, why would I want to hear this?"
"Ahhh, how come a single guy like me wants to fall in love after listening to this?"
"From another perspective, don't you think this couple is a bit interesting?"
…
The host clearly felt that he was being looked at with resentment, but looking at the last question on the cue card, he still asked it anyway.
"I want to ask, Mr. Lin, what do you think love is?"
The audience is ready to kill.
"You're still asking, aren't you?"
"Eat, I can still eat three pounds of this dog food!"
“It doesn’t matter anymore.”
"I really want to hear it."
There were countless discussions, but when Lin Wanzhou heard this question, he just smiled.
"That boy once told me that."
“Love is actually very simple.”
“It can be expressed in a song.”
“I remember singing it like this.”
“Ahem.”
She simply cleared her throat, faced the audience seats and the closed door, and began to hum.
"I want to see you, only you."
"The future is past."
"I just want to see you."
The singing was light and beautiful, floating and echoing above the venue.
Everyone was listening attentively, so the meeting place was extremely quiet.
Next second.
A discordant and violent sound startled everyone.
"Bang."
The door of the venue was pushed open.
Lin Wanzhou's pupils dilated as he looked at the scene and the person in front of him in disbelief.
That tall young boy.
The boy in a shirt.
The young man who was sweating and looked a little embarrassed.
The teenager who was entangled by the security guard.
The boy who looked a little funny holding two trophies in his hands.
The boy named Xu Cheng.
Shouldn't he appear at the Weibo Night awards ceremony?
Why would he come to me in such a miserable state?
Is it magic?
Lin Wanzhou rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
Xu Cheng simply broke free from the two security guards and rushed straight towards the stage.
Then, in the filming of the camera, in the live broadcast on TV, under the watchful eyes of everyone.
Xu Cheng simply adjusted his hair, took a deep breath, faced the girl in the center of the stage, and spoke with a smile, trying not to speak too quickly.
"Lin Wanzhou."
"They asked me what I would most like to do if the world ended today."
"I think……"
"Come to see you."
Countless people are already confused.
Kill like crazy.
This couple is really going crazy!
However, what is even more exciting is that the audience who had just watched Weibo Night and then came to watch the live broadcast of the National Debate were almost stunned.
You know, the current Weibo headline is still: [Qingzhou boss Xu Cheng ran away in public at the awards ceremony]
It’s even more exciting below.
Passersby kept sending the photos of Xu Cheng they took to the Internet, and they were listed on the hot searches.
[I saw the boss of Qingzhou on Wuning Road! ]
[Surprise! Xu Cheng is hailing a taxi on the roadside???]
[There was a traffic jam, and a weird guy got out of a taxi behind me and ran away. ]
[I was also stuck in traffic and happened to see the trending search, and then I saw a weird guy running past my car. Was it him? ]
[What did I see? That was Xu Cheng from Qingzhou, running down the road with two trophies in his hands? Where was he going?]
[Lao Deng's equipment exploded, and the suit was thrown on the road. It looks quite expensive. Anyone want it? ]
[Xu Cheng was seen on Yunqiao Road], [Xu Cheng was arrested on Guangwang Street], [Xu Cheng was photographed at Lingqiaokou]...
What made this boss a fugitive boy?
The casual boss who ran away as soon as the host of Weibo Night asked a question.
What on earth is he going to do?
Case solved!
He wants to come and see the girl who is killing people indiscriminately in Guobian!
My eyes really went dark and I almost passed out.
The headline on Weibo soon became: [Li Chen and Zhang Xinyu, give back the Couple of the Year award! ]
However, most people were still very moved, and as the incident fermented, the stage accident that originally caused Bian Zixin to blacken her eyes turned into a scene where countless netizens envied the couple.
"At Weibo Night, after the host Hua Shao asked what he wanted to do most before the end of the world, Weibo boss Xu Cheng fled the scene. After getting stuck in a traffic jam, he ran 8.79 kilometers just to see his girlfriend at the National Debate. At the National Debate, Lin Wanzhou just sang the line "I want to see you" in a song, and the next second the door was opened, and his lover was right in front of him."
The story that netizens pieced together bit by bit based on hearsay soon spread widely on the Internet, and countless people exclaimed that it was great.
“This is better than any romance movie!”
"Thank goodness I watched the live broadcast today, otherwise I would regret it for the rest of my life."
"Ahhh, running both ways! How can there be such a perfect match in the world?"
"You two must send me an invitation when you get married!!!"
December 21, 2012, 23:31.
The streets of Magic City.
Jin Guang netizens were already going wild, but the two parties involved were still pretty calm.
"I thought you really knew magic, and you came here in a flash." Lin Wanzhou held Xu Cheng's hand and cutely told him what happened today.
"Thanks to my good stamina, I ran like a marathon and left all my clothes on the road."
"You're stupid. If you don't have a car, can't you take the subway or something?"
Even though the girl said this, her face was filled with happiness.
The square is still very lively at night, with people selling balloons and fireworks, as well as children's toys such as inflatable castles and rocking cars.
"It's a bit of a pity though." Xu Cheng suddenly said.
Lin Wanzhou raised her head and glanced at him.
"What's wrong?"
"The world is going to end tomorrow, and I haven't seen the thing I wanted to take you to see yet." Xu Cheng joked.
"I already know what it is. It's a train breathing fire, right?"
Xu Cheng was shocked.
"How did you know that?"
Lin Wanzhou stuck out her tongue.
"That's because I have magic too, of course."
She looked around and said, "Wait a minute, I have another magic trick to show you."
After saying that, she hurried out and disappeared in the bustling crowd. Xu Cheng stood there in a daze, searching for a while and heard the girl's shout.
"Xu Cheng."
He looked in the direction of the voice and saw Lin Wanzhou standing behind a toy locomotive in the square.
Seeing him looking at me, I bent down and lit the small thunderbolt jet firework I had just bought.
Sparks shot up from the ground, and small fire trees rising from the ground illuminated the night sky around the girl. She stood there with a sweet smile on her face, like a flower in bud, with light flashing in her eyes, as if reflecting the splendor of the fireworks.
"Xu Cheng."
"Look, even if tomorrow is the end of the world."
“We also saw…”
