In early September, before anyone knew it, more than half a year had passed since Li Tangyan returned from City S.
Many things happened during that time, which made her feel a sense of how quickly time had passed whenever she looked back.
On the other hand, considering that both of them still have things to finish, they don't have any extra time.
So, after discussing it with Xu Miaomiao, Zheng Chuanyi decided to get their marriage certificate first and then hold the wedding at the end of the year.
And today, strictly speaking, is also the last day before Xu Miaomiao completely ends her "single" life.
The meanings are different.
So, following a plan the three of them had made long ago...
Li Tangyan, Xu Miaomiao, and Yao Qing began early on according to their earlier plan, making the most of this last bit of carefree time that belonged only to them.
That day, they went back to the dessert shop they used to frequent during their student days.
I strolled along the tree-lined avenues that I rarely visit.
And in the prayer corridors of those temples where incense smoke curls, red silk ribbons carrying the wishes of passing girls are hung.
The red ribbons fluttered gently in the wind, causing the bells tied in the corridor to ring out with a clear and pleasant sound.
As the sun sets, perhaps because of the view from the mountaintop, the distant sky appears veiled by a thin layer of clouds.
At that time, the sun, which had not yet fully set, was partially hidden within the light, and the warm yellow light intertwined within created a different kind of hazy beauty.
Li Tangyan rested her hands on the railing, gazing into the distance.
The sound of the temple bell, long and melodious, brought a sense of peace amidst the gentle tinkling.
Then, as a gust of wind blew through a few strands of hair that lifted her face, Li Tangyan turned her head to look at the other two people beside her, only to see that their gazes were still fixed on the front.
Seeing this, Li Tangyan raised the corners of her lips and was about to speak.
Xu Miaomiao tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear and then placed her hands on the railing.
The voice was very soft and quickly dissipated into the wind: "Time really flies."
Time flies, and we're no longer at the age where we had to sneak away from our parents to buy a spicy snack.
Li Tangyan hummed in agreement, as if she too was lost in memories.
However, the emotional moment lasted only three seconds before the two heard Yao Qing, who was resting her chin on her hand, say something quietly.
"Yes, in the blink of an eye, I'll be calling you Mrs. Zheng."
Pfft—
Li Tangyan couldn't help but laugh.
The initial sadness vanished instantly when Yao Qing spoke.
Xu Miaomiao glanced back at her, then laughed and scolded, "Do you have to be such a spoilsport?"
Yao Qing grinned, her smile widening: "Isn't this to help you get into character early?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Miaomiao grabbed him and started scratching him again, just as expected.
After the two finished arguing, the three of them walked down the mountain side by side.
On the way back, the afterglow of the setting sun cast long shadows of the three of them on the ground.
Their voices were tinged with laughter as they disappeared into the woods, accompanied by the sound of a gust of wind.
"Thinking about it, being single is still more comfortable. Maybe I should call off the wedding tomorrow?"
"Then I reckon your Zheng Chuanyi will be able to steal another bride the day after tomorrow."
"...You're so good at talking."
"Of course."
"Sigh, the feelings have faded after all, and they don't even know how to care for each other anymore."
"It's okay. Mrs. Wen said she'll make some preparations tonight, and the four of you can go get the stamps together tomorrow."
"That's great. Remember to give two gifts each."
"!!! You're bullying honest people."
"No, it's bullying single people."
