She thought sadly to herself, "I want to look a little longer, a little closer..."
But it seemed like she was about to leave. She bit her lip and couldn't hold back. Suddenly, her nose stung and tears streamed down her cheeks.
Mizutani Yumi twitched her nose, trying her best to calm herself down.
Today is a very happy day! My long-cherished wish has finally come true, so why am I crying...?
"Alright, it's time to go." The ruthless security guard urged.
"Um······"
The teddy bear turned away dejectedly, about to walk into the shadows, when a clear shout suddenly came from under the Ferris wheel.
"Brother, have you seen that bear? It's so cute! Let's take a picture with it!"
It was Luo Xiaoli's voice.
Before Jiang Cheng could stop her, she was pulled toward Mizutani Yumi's location. She turned around in disbelief, stunned at the edge of the shadows and the light, watching the girl run toward her.
"Level 1 alert! Should we prevent her from approaching the monitor?" the SWAT team quickly issued the signal.
In the electronic communications room, You Lixuan stared nervously at the monitor screen. Something he hadn't expected happened just as he was about to give the order to stop it.
Jiang Cheng suddenly stretched out his hand and waved, the gesture so clear.
Old You swallowed the instruction back.
We absolutely cannot expose this; we must finish this charade! This is Jiang Cheng's intention.
So, in the scene, Luo Xiaoli, who was completely unaware of the situation, ran to Mizutani Yumi's side with her brother.
"Hello, teddy bear, can we take a picture together?"
Shui Ting, her mind blank from the shock, remained silent. She was only a foot away from the person she longed for, separated by a mask, so close yet so far.
She was so close that she could reach out and touch Luo Xiaoli.
So far in the future that she could never recognize him.
After a long pause, Mizutani Yumi met those curious eyes. Kori frowned, seemingly puzzled as to why the teddy bear wasn't talking.
Jiang Cheng suddenly felt a little nervous. He was afraid that if he wasn't careful, his entire plan would be exposed, and Luo Xiaoli would definitely hate him for deceiving everyone...
This is a white lie.
Fortunately, Shui Ting realized what was happening and drooped her heavy, plush mask down twice, indicating that she was nodding in agreement.
Luo Xiaoli's eyes immediately filled with joy. She took out her phone, pulled Jiang Cheng over, and the two of them stood to the side, surrounding the plush toy in the middle. With a "click," they took a picture.
This was also... the only time they ever took a photo together. Sadly, Yumi Mizutani had to hide under a mask, but she was still very content.
"Thank you, teddy bear!"
After taking the photos, Luo Xiaoli opened her arms and made an unexpected move: she hugged Mizutani Yumi.
This brief yet warm hug was so ordinary.
For Shui Ting, it was like a lone boat that had weathered the world's fiercest and most violent winds, as well as tsunamis of a thousand feet and waves of ten thousand feet, yet it still did not break.
This lone boat represented her heart, hardened for countless years, a heart that distrusted the warmth of the world! In an instant, it melted away…
"It's 10 o'clock! We should go ride the Ferris wheel!"
Night falls, the deep night falls.
Jiang Cheng and Luo Xiaoli's figures gradually disappeared into the distance as they boarded the upward-rotating Ferris wheel, slowly reaching its summit amidst their excitement. Just then, fireworks were ignited, shooting rapidly into the sky, leaving a brilliant trail of crimson flames, flying to the foot of the stars before exploding abruptly against the black curtain of darkness! The intense fireworks instantly ignited the night sky, bursting forth with sparks that bloomed into clusters of flowers in the heavens, vibrant and dazzling, contrasting beautifully with the hazy moonlight and the brightly lit amusement park. These fireworks shimmered in Luo Xiaoli's pupils, her dark eyes rippling with fiery light.
At the boundary between shadow and light, hidden inside the doll, Yumi Mizuniwa's face was streaked with tears, and she sobbed uncontrollably...
