Feng Guang asked, "So, shall we stay here?"
"Yes, we'll rest at this inn for a few days."
Su Fa led Feng Guang into the inn, and soon a waiter came to greet them, "Esteemed guests, are you here for a meal or to stay the night?"
Sufa said, "A superior room."
"Alright, a superior room!" The sharp-eyed waiter naturally knew that the two were a couple, but there were quite a few couples staying at the inn, and he had never seen such a good-looking couple before.
The waiter led Su Fa and her companion to the shopkeeper to pay the deposit. To everyone's surprise, the shopkeeper, who was still busy calculating accounts, was stunned for a long time upon seeing Feng Guang, which puzzled him. He finally asked, "Who is this young lady?"
The waiter said, "Shopkeeper, what's wrong? These two guests are here to stay."
"Ah, you want to stay at the inn?" The innkeeper seemed to have come to his senses. "Miss, I'm sorry, I've never seen such a beautiful girl before, so I was a little stunned. Are you two a couple? You're a perfect match, a match made in heaven."
Sufa smiled and took out a silver ingot. "This is for the rent."
"Alright, alright." The innkeeper took the money and then shouted at the waiter, "What are you all standing there for? Quickly take the guest to a superior room!"
The waiter hurriedly replied, "Yes, yes, please follow me, both of you."
Following the waiter into the room, Feng Guang said to Su Fa, "We're staying here now. So, what's next?"
She had never heard him mention anything about his plans after arriving in the mortal realm.
Su Fa said, "Tomorrow is the Qixi Festival in the mortal world. How about I take Fengguang to release river lanterns?"
Do people release river lanterns to pray for marriage?
"Isn't my perfect marriage the one I'm destined for?"
"Then why should I release river lanterns?"
Su Fa smiled slightly and said softly, "Although we can't pray for a marriage, isn't it good enough to wish that we can stay together forever and live a peaceful life?"
Nobody wants to stay with you forever!
Feng Guang blinked, puzzled, and said, "But we are gods. Mortals pray to gods for peace, so who do we pray to?"
“The scenery…” he sighed, “Releasing river lanterns is just a way of expressing one’s own beautiful hopes, not a way of actually asking anyone for anything.”
She smiled, pursing her lips, "What you said seems to make sense..."
"Would you like to release river lanterns with me tomorrow?"
"Alright, now that we're all here in the mortal realm, we should definitely join in the fun."
"Tonight I'll go to the street and pick out the best river lantern for Fengguang. Will Fengguang come out with me?"
"Let's forget it." She shook her head. "I don't know if it's because of the difference in time between the celestial realm and the mortal realm, but I'm so sleepy right now. I don't want to go out. Su Fa, can you help me pick out the prettiest river lantern? We can go release it together tomorrow."
"Okay." Su Fa held her hand and kissed the back of it. "You can rest well at the inn. I will set up a barrier around the room so that no one can hurt you. You can rest in peace."
"Hmm." She nodded and yawned again. Indeed, it was the middle of the night in the Heavenly Realm at this time.
Su Fa watched her get into bed and fall asleep, then tucked her in before leaving the room. A few minutes after the door closed, Feng Guang got out of bed, dressed, and went downstairs.
Right at the top of the stairs, she unexpectedly ran into the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper asked, "Young lady, what's going on here?"
"I've come to find you."
