Chapter 985 A Romantic Little Gift

The chef prepared sago pudding for dessert. After eating so much seafood and meat, this bowl of sago pudding, mixed with fruit pieces and not too sweet, was just the right way to cleanse the palate.

Gu Shaoling and Zhao Yun'er both love sweets and raved about the sago pudding. Even though they were already quite full, they couldn't resist drinking some more.

Since they were in someone else's house, and there were so many people around, the group didn't look around and whispered among themselves.

Therefore, no one noticed that next to Ye Wanxi's bowl of sago pudding, there was a small plate of delicate pastries.

It's described as a small dish, but in reality, it only contains three small pieces.

Ye Wanxi stared at the miniature plate of osmanthus cake, thinking of the osmanthus trees planted outside the courtyard, and turned to look at Feng Tianyu as if she had a premonition.

Feng Tianyu seemed to notice her gaze and turned to look at her with a faint smile.

Ye Wanxi pursed her lips, suppressed the slight upturn of her mouth, and tried a bite of the pastry.

It's sweet but not cloying, and you can still feel the fragrance of osmanthus lingering in your mouth, which is hard to get rid of.

After lunch, Phil showed Ye Wanxi and the others around the castle, and then specially arranged for a yacht to take them to the shallow waters on the shore.

The guests thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon, and the viewers in the live stream were also treated to a visual feast, exclaiming that the production team had truly done their job this time.

This excitement lasted until that evening, after the group had dinner.

"Before leaving, the host specifically instructed that a gift be prepared for the guests who came from the same route. I hope you will not find it offensive."

"Gift? What gift?"

As soon as Gu Shaoling and the others finished speaking, the sound of fireworks exploding rang out outside the castle.

"Fireworks, it's fireworks!"

Indeed, the gift the castle owner prepared for them was none other than the dazzling fireworks that bloomed in the night sky.

Realizing this, Zhao Yun'er and the others immediately grabbed their boyfriends and rushed out of the castle gate.

The fireworks were set off outside the castle, but they actually exploded right on the edge of the castle.

As the group stood in the courtyard and looked up, they could see colorful fireworks of various shapes shooting into the sky one after another, blooming in an instant.

Needless to say, the viewers in the live stream went all out, in order to capture the beautiful fireworks display from all angles, and even went to the extreme of starting up many drones to film the spectacular fireworks from various perspectives.

Wow, wow, who would have thought I'd be watching fireworks on a variety show? These fireworks were absolutely gorgeous! I want to go see fireworks with my boyfriend too. Too bad, fireworks are prohibited where we live.

[No fireworks +1. As a working stiff who hasn't seen fireworks in years, I'm incredibly envious.]

The owner of this castle is truly something else! Knowing that the guests were all couples, he specially prepared this fireworks display. It's been going on for almost half an hour now, hasn't it? And with so many different kinds, it must have cost hundreds of thousands, even millions! What a handsome, wealthy, and considerate tycoon! I love him!

[Wake up, upstairs. People with that kind of wealth are usually in their forties, if not fifties or sixties. Foreigners mature earlier, so even if they don't have baldness or beer bellies, their hair is probably mostly white by now—more than old enough to be your father.]

"Be my dad? That's wonderful! Dad, look at me, I'm your long-lost daughter who was stranded abroad!"

It wasn't just the viewers in the live stream who were won over by the shower of fireworks; several female guests at the event, who also loved romance, were also captivated.

"The owner of this castle must be a very romantic person to think of arranging such beautiful fireworks for us."

Gu Shaoling nodded in agreement without hesitation: "I've always heard that people from Germany are romantic, and it seems that the rumors are true."

Gu Shaoling and her companion were unaware of the online discussions about the castle owner, and naturally assumed that the castle owner was a genuine local.

Li Guangjun couldn't stand his girlfriend praising other men, and said sourly, "You think sending us to see fireworks is romantic? You guys are too easily bought off, aren't you?"

Zhao Yun'er snorted coldly and said disdainfully, "You're so good at talking, why don't you set off some fireworks for me? We've been dating for so long, and you've never even given me a sparkler, let alone fireworks?"

Li Guangjun was surprised that Zhao Yun'er was so good at using this as an excuse, and said with a mix of annoyance and amusement, "I wish I could, wouldn't it? I set off fireworks for you one minute, and the next you'd be in jail to bail me out. Wouldn't that be a losing proposition?"

Zhao Yun'er pouted: "Excuses, all excuses."

Gu Shaoling hadn't expected the two of them to start arguing over fireworks, so she quickly turned to Nie Yuyang and said, "I... I'm not saying you're not romantic, I just think these fireworks are beautiful."

Nie Yuyang could clearly see that the young couple next to him were deliberately bickering to strengthen their relationship, but his own wife couldn't see it at all, and was nervously afraid that he would misunderstand.

While finding it amusing, my heart softened a little, and I reached out to pat her head, saying, "I know, I also think the fireworks are beautiful."

"Uh-huh."

As Gu Shaoling spoke, she took Nie Yuyang's hand, and Nie Yuyang pulled her into his arms. The young couple watched the fireworks intimately.

The viewers in the live stream were speechless. "Is this the price to pay for watching a dating reality show late at night, even though I'm just watching fireworks?"

Ye Wanxi watched the fireworks in silence. Her intuition told her that this was not a gift from the castle owner, but a romantic little thing that someone had specially arranged for her to see alone, just like the plate of osmanthus cake just now.

Thinking this, she couldn't help but secretly hold Feng Tianyu's hand. Feng Tianyu didn't lower his head, but held her hand back, their fingers intertwined tightly.

The fireworks display lasted for more than an hour, and when it ended, a large circle and a heart appeared in the sky.

No one thought much of it, assuming it was a thoughtful gesture by the castle owner, who knew that all the guests were couples.

After watching the fireworks show, it was completely dark. Gu Shaoling and the others, who had been excited and having fun all afternoon, were a little tired.

Butler Phil then led them to the rooms arranged for them. Perhaps knowing in advance that the guests were all couples, the butler only prepared three rooms, one for each of the three couples.

The guests had no objections to this; after the unexpected incident in the previous episode, they were also worried about letting their girlfriends stay in a room alone.

After leading Gu Shaoling and Zhao Yun'er, the two couples, to their rooms on the second floor, Butler Phil did not lead Ye Wanxi and Zhao Yun'er to stay in the rooms next to the two couples. Instead, he personally led them up to the third floor.
