Shiyue's heart tightened once again, and she subconsciously moved a little closer to He Lixuan.
He Lixuan led her to a bench and said, "Sit here and don't move. I'm going to take a walk and I'll be right back."
"There are still cakes, don't go buy food." Shiyue grabbed his coat sleeve.
Her tone carried a dependence she herself was unaware of.
He Lixuan stopped what he was doing, a conflicted look on his face.
He could tell that Shiyue was nervous.
But then he looked around at the pitch-black surroundings, the wide-open waiting hall doors, and the crowd of people sitting around him, whose identities he couldn't quite discern...

Fortunately, He Lixuan really kept his word.
Just as Shiyue was unconsciously counting to sixty for the twelfth time, he strode towards her.
With the light behind her, Shi Yue couldn't actually see He Lixuan's appearance clearly, but at this moment, she felt that he was radiant and incredibly handsome.
Looking at him fills me with joy.
