Chapter 112 112 "Hurry up and make an appointment with him, Xiao Yuanzi, what are you waiting for...

The rich have no humanity, the rich have no humanity, let’s fight with you rich people!

Su Xiaoyuan looked at the fireworks exploding in the sky, and this thought kept repeating in her mind.

Then she remembered that she was also a rich person and could afford to burn it if she really wanted to, but it was impossible for her to do so.

The fireworks display has been going on for more than an hour and there is no sign of stopping. At first, she thought it was some special custom in the world of immortal cultivation. It was not until Ruan Mianmian and Yu Yingchun, two second-generation cultivators, were also amazed that she realized that the fireworks in the world of immortal cultivation were not much different from those in the real world. The latter burned money, and the former also burned spirit stones. Every minute cost a huge amount of money, and a large-scale fireworks display would not exceed two quarters of an hour.

This is obviously not a marketing activity, and there is no logo of a business or sect, so Ruan Mianmian's guess is very likely true. It is probably given to his sweetheart by a big boss who has too much money to spend.

After the previous batch of fireworks faded out and the night sky briefly returned to its original color, there was a "whoosh" sound as a large firework flew high into the sky and exploded with a "bang", turning into a bunch of small firework balls of various colors and patterns, bouncing, rolling and flashing in the dark night sky.

Just when everyone was puzzled, several more fireworks rose into the sky and exploded, but they turned into a group of kitten fireworks, each of which was chasing and biting the small ball, turning the night sky into a cat planet.

The mythical beasts, flying birds, and flowers just now were beautiful, and were common themes in fireworks displays, but no one had ever seen such novel and childlike fireworks.

The crowd by the lake burst into exclamations, and Su Xiaoyuan was even more stunned.

I have to say that the routine of classic idol dramas is old but useful. It is not unreasonable that the domineering president likes to take the heroine to watch fireworks.

If she were the one she loved, even if the boss who set off fireworks for her was a pighead... No, a pighead is still not acceptable. This is a matter of dignity for those who love beauty, and she cannot compromise on appearance.

It’s hard not to be moved if the domineering boss has a straight head and a straight face.

Having said that, if you're good-looking, you don't need to dress up. It's obvious that the boss is probably not good-looking. After all, he got to watch the fireworks for nothing. Su Xiaoyuan felt a little sympathetic to the boss. She just hoped that the girl or boy he loved would focus on inner beauty and not be as obsessed with appearance as she was.

She suddenly remembered that the fireworks were a small regret in her heart, because she and some of her best friends from high school had made an appointment to go to Disneyland to watch the fireworks show after the New Year. They had already booked the plane tickets, hotel and tickets, but unfortunately they got into a car accident before they could see it.

Unexpectedly, my second birthday in another world was unexpectedly made up for.

And it’s so grand and so beautiful.

She counted them and found that there were exactly twenty balls and kittens. Today was her twentieth birthday. It was like a dream. Even if she had to borrow someone else's, she felt so lucky as if a mysterious force was blessing her.

Did she tell anyone she regretted not being able to see the fireworks? Did she mention it to the puppet? Probably not. Every time she talked about her past life with the puppet, a lot of the words were censored.

Someone seemed to have asked her what her wish was...

Su Xiaoyuan's head hurt from thinking about it, but she only had a very vague impression and couldn't remember it at all.

Soon a new round of fireworks attracted her attention and left her no time to think further.

"It's all thanks to my brother-in-law," Ruan Mianmian sighed, "This is the clearest spot in the whole city."

The fireworks display was held on Luoxing Lake. The view from the Fu Yu Tower viewing platform where they were located was excellent. Logically speaking, such a good location would not be available to these young disciples even if they paid money. The reason they were able to monopolize the viewing platform was because of the connections of Ling Yue Immortal Venerable.

Before leaving, Su Xiaoyuan suddenly remembered that she had accepted someone's "Christmas cake" and had forgotten to thank him. She quickly sent him a message: "Thank you, Senior Brother, for the cake. It's so delicious!"

After thinking for a while, I added: "I'm sorry for missing class today. I'll make up for it when I have time."

I don’t know if the boss was too idle on the mountaintop, but he replied immediately: [As long as you like it, there’s no rush for homework, your health is more important.]

Just as Su Xiaoyuan was about to put away the communication mirror, another message popped up: [I've compiled some basic Qigong techniques. You can take a look at them first. I've also sent a puppet to show you some illustrations of today's sword techniques.]

Su Xiaoyuan's head was balding. If she didn't go out now, she would miss the fireworks display. Based on her years of experience of queuing up at major tourist attractions during winter and summer vacations, places with good views must be crowded with people, and if she didn't go out now, she would not even be able to catch the opening.

It was a bit unreasonable to go out and play at night after taking a day off, but once the puppet came, he would find out that she was not there, so she couldn't hide it.

Su Xiaoyuan hesitated for a moment, but finally answered honestly: "Sorry, Senior Brother, I was just about to go out."

[Are you okay?]

[I feel much better after a day of rest.]

Where to go?

Su Xiaoyuan couldn't lie, so she told the truth: "I heard there was a fireworks display down the mountain, and I wanted to go see it with my friends. Sorry."

[No need to apologize, it's natural for young people to go out and have fun.]

Su Xiaoyuan looked at the condescending tone and remembered that he was actually only in his early twenties. She couldn't help but laugh and the corners of her mouth curled up unconsciously.

Ruan Mianmian immediately started gossiping: "What did you say, Xiao Yuanzi? Why are you smiling so sweetly? Huh?"

Su Xiaoyuan quickly suppressed the corners of her mouth.

After a while, another message came: [Where? ]

Su Xiaoyuan's scalp tightened, and a thought suddenly flashed through her mind: The boss is not going too, is he?

Ruan Mianmian saw her best friend looking at the communication mirror with an awkward expression and asked, "What's wrong, Xiao Yuanzi? What did your brother-in-law say?"

Su Xiaoyuan: "He asked me where the fireworks display was..."

"He doesn't want to go with you, does he? Ahhh, I told you he's interested in you! Hurry up and ask him out, Xiao Yuanzi, what are you waiting for!"

"But will you feel uncomfortable with him around?"

"What do you care about us?" Ruan Mianmian said angrily. "If he agrees, of course you and he can go together. Why should we join in the fun? Watch the fireworks, have a few drinks, and sleep with him tonight while the atmosphere is good!"

Su Xiaoyuan: "How is that possible! I'm having my period..."

She almost gasped when she said this. When she heard her best friend's suggestion, her first thought was that the conditions did not allow it, not that she did not want to sleep with Immortal Master Ling Yue.

Does she want to?

Just as she was in a daze, Ruan Mianmian urged her: "Whether you can sleep or not, it's good to improve your relationship. Ask him out first."

Su Xiaoyuan hesitated for a moment, but still didn't dare to ask him out directly. She just replied: "It's at Luoxing Lake. Brother, are you planning to go see it?"

After a long while, the other party replied: [I won't go. The view from the Floating Cloud Tower Observation Deck is great. I'll have the butler take you there.]

After being rejected, Su Xiaoyuan was surprised to find that while she felt relieved, she actually felt a little lost in her heart.

"How is it? What did my brother-in-law say? Do you want to go together?" Ruan Mianmian asked.

"He said he couldn't go and asked the butler to take us to the Floating Cloud Tower Observation Deck..."

Ruan Mianmian exclaimed when she heard this: "Oh my God! Did he really say that? Do you know how difficult it is to book a spot at the Floating Cloud Tower Observation Deck? I heard someone asked Tai Yan for help but couldn't get one even with any of the Peak Masters. He's worthy of being my brother-in-law!"

Su Xiaoyuan: “…”

She didn't really want to owe Ling Yuexianzun a favor, but seeing her best friend so happy, she decided to owe him the favor for now. Thinking about the fact that she would have to use witchcraft to deceive people in the future, she thought that too many lice would not itch, and too many debts would not worry her.

Only when she arrived at Luoxing Lake on the cloud car of Wuji Palace did she realize how wise this decision was.

If it weren't for the glittering golden emblem of the Wuji Palace, they wouldn't even be able to reach the edge of Luoxing Lake - this is the territory of Taiyan, the number one sect in the fairy world, and the people here are not ordinary people, each of them is a folk master with magical powers and unique skills.

Along the way, Su Xiaoyuan had seen several groups of people fighting and using magic to occupy seats and cut in line. She was a fragile person in the Qi Refining Stage, and she was afraid that she would be gone before she could even see the fireworks.

Thanks to the boss's privileges, they can sit on this quiet platform, sip fine wine, eat exquisite cakes and fruits, and enjoy the fireworks.

The fireworks display lasted until midnight. The hundreds of large ships on Luoxing Lake that were specially used to launch spirit stone fireworks put away their cannons, and the last flames in the night sky went out.

The crowd watching by the Falling Star Lake waited for a while, and when they saw the boats on the water spread their oars and fly into the air, they dispersed with a sense of unfulfilled desire.

The fireworks display was over, and her 20th birthday was also over. Inevitably, she felt a sense of loneliness as the party ended and everyone dispersed. Su Xiaoyuan looked at the empty night sky, and her heart felt a little empty.

"Shall we go back too? Xiao Yuanzi is still not feeling well today, so let's go back and rest early." Ruan Mianmian said.

Su Xiaoyuan came back to her senses.

She ate the Christmas cake and watched the fireworks, but she still wasn't satisfied? How could people be so greedy!

"It's so beautiful." She took a deep breath and became happy again.

Aside from the fact that the puppeteer wasn't around, it could be said to be a perfect birthday in another world.

The three were about to board the cloud car to return to the sect when suddenly countless ethereal bell sounds were heard in the air. Those who had not yet had time to disperse all looked up at the same time and burst into waves of exclamations.

Su Xiaoyuan also looked up at the sky, and saw that all the fireworks that had been set off before appeared in an instant. The mythical beasts, mountains and seas, flowers, and those kittens jumping for the ball were all frozen on the sky, flickering slightly, as if many new constellations were born at once.

They admired it for a long time before boarding the Wuji Palace's cloud car to return to the sect.

The crane carried them into the air and flew among the newly formed "constellations". The "stars" were so close that they seemed as if they could be picked up with just a stretch of the hand.

Flying past a fireworks cherry tree, which was full of crystal red fruits, it looked really tempting. Su Xiaoyuan couldn't help but reach out to touch it. She thought she would touch nothing, but unexpectedly, the fruit fell off as soon as she touched it.

She subconsciously reached out to pick it up, and something heavy actually fell into her palm.

When she looked at it, she saw that it was a red gem the size of a cherry. It did not look like an ordinary spirit stone. It seemed as if there was a flame burning inside and it felt warm to the touch.

It's like really picking a star.

Su Xiaoyuan quickly showed it to her best friend. Ruan Mianmian and Yu Yingchun were very surprised and reached out to grab it, but they only grabbed something empty.

"Maybe only one fruit on the tree is real. Xiao Yuanzi is so lucky!" Ruan Mianmian said.

Su Xiaoyuan was a little uneasy: "This looks like a gem. Will the owner come back to reclaim it later? Why return it to someone else..."

Ruan Mianmian: "You can't put it back after you take it off. That person burned so many spirit stones, he shouldn't care about a gem. Otherwise, you can put it away first. If someone finds it back, just tell the truth and say that you took it off accidentally."

This was the only way. Su Xiaoyuan nodded, carefully wrapped the gem in a handkerchief, and put it into the Qiankun bag.

I couldn't help but feel secretly happy, as if I had received a birthday present.

After returning to her residence, washing up and lying on the bed, she picked up the communication mirror and wanted to thank Immortal Ling Yue, but she erased the text halfway through.

It's already past midnight, and the boss is probably meditating at this time. The sound of the communication instrument might disturb him, so I'd better thank him in the morning.

Just as she was thinking, her communication ring rang. She subconsciously picked up the communication mirror and found that the mirror was dark. Then she realized that it was not the communication mirror that was ringing, but the communication ring between her and the puppet - she had sent a message to him before going to the fireworks display, and agreed to talk again when she came back.

She should have been happy, but the moment she realized she had made a mistake, she felt a slight sense of loss in her heart.

What's wrong with her?

Su Xiaoyuan sorted out her thoughts and answered the call: "Fu Tingyun, what's wrong?"

"I miss Xiao Yuan," the puppet's familiar voice came from my ear, "Are you asleep?"

Su Xiaoyuan pushed the door open and walked into the yard. Looking up, she saw the fireworks constellations still twinkling in the distance.

"I'll be there in a minute..." She chatted with the puppet for a while, went back to the house, lay down, and fell asleep in a daze.

I woke up at dawn and went out to see that those "stars" were still hanging in the sky. They did not disappear in the daytime sky until the sun rose in the east.

She went back to wash and change her clothes, and when she was about to go out for class, she found a message on the communication mirror, which was sent by Ling Yue Immortal Venerable.

[Are the fireworks beautiful?]

She checked the time and realized she was chatting with the puppet, so she missed it.
