They clinked glasses, feasted heartily, drinking celestial wine and eating the most delicious food in the world. A woman as beautiful as a fairy served them food, and Zhao Xi tried to hug and tease them, being even more unrestrained than the men.
After a hearty meal, they lay side by side on the deck.
But it was like a fleeting dream.
The sky was filled with twinkling stars, and meteor showers streaked across the heavens. Magnificent nebulae, usually invisible to the naked eye, appeared incredibly close. Planets, magnified many times over, brushed past each other across the sky, a breathtaking sight that sent shivers down one's spine.
It felt so unreal it was almost frightening.

Zhao Xi thought, "Hmm."
