The night grows darker.
But the lights on Pingxin Street were bright.
After some low-key disguise, Chen Yao, together with Qi Yunxiao, blended into the crowded crowd.
There were more people coming here tonight than they had imagined. Not only were they crowded together, but even their voices were mixed together.
How long do we have to wait for the fireworks? Should we move a little further forward to get a better spot?
"There's probably less than half an hour left. We can go for a walk first. Hey, look over there, it looks like there are quite a few people releasing river lanterns."
【Hey, hey, don’t push...】
[Hiss...someone just stepped on my foot.]
[What are you pushing? Can't you see that the front is not moving? ]
The road where Chen Yao and Qi Yunxiao were suddenly became more crowded, and they could no longer move forward before they could even reach the place where they were praying.
Qi Yunxiao was worried that Chen Yao was being squeezed too hard, so he kept protecting her silently. Unknowingly, the distance between the two of them was getting closer and closer. If Chen Yao leaned back a little, she would be pressed against Qi Yunxiao's solid chest.
"It's a good thing that I didn't let Xichun and Yuezhu come together today. Otherwise, judging by how crowded it is now, they would be separated by the crowd sooner or later." Chen Yao said with a breath.
Qi Yunxiao didn't know what he was thinking, he just nodded lightly.
"Hey, what are they doing on the stage over there? Are they offering sacrifices to the moon?" Chen Yao suddenly looked at an incense table and a big red candle burning on a stage not far away.
Qi Yunxiao followed her gaze and when he saw the preparations and orientation of the moon worship ceremony, his vision suddenly blurred.
Why did the scene before him give him a very familiar feeling?
Could it be that... he had seen a similar scene before? Just like every ordinary person in the audience.
But...this familiar feeling is more than just that.
Suddenly, he felt a heavy sensation in his chest. It was Chen Yao who was pushed to his side. Without thinking, Qi Yunxiao reached out his hand to steady her. "Be careful, don't fall."
Chen Yao hummed and simply leaned against him without moving.
Qi Yunxiao didn't notice this little detail. He was still thinking about something else in his mind, trying to use the sense of familiarity at this moment to awaken his hidden memories.
Seeing this, the system smiled happily and said, "Host, this trip is really worth it. I can finally see you two being close to each other."
Chen Yao: "But there are really a lot of people here. Do you have any props that I can use? Could you give me a few? So that they don't squeeze me."
The system spread its hands and said, "No, host, let Qi Yunxiao always protect you like this."
Chen Yao just pointed out: "Come and prevent someone from stepping on your feet. I just saw someone's feet being stepped on. It hurts so much..."
The system said quietly, "Okay, then I'll find it for you now."
After all, it is a good system that cares about its host.
......
With about a quarter of an hour left before the fireworks were set off, the crowd finally began to surge again.
More and more people are moving forward, trying to get the best viewing position.
In the crowd, you can clearly see some people walking together holding hands or arm in arm, basically they are family members or good sisters.
