Chapter 336 "Confessions under the fireworks are as bright as stars"
"A three."
"King bomb!"
"No! Bai Bufan! Wanqiu played a three! It's one! A three!"
"Yeah, I know, I played a king bomb, which is better than three." Bai Bufan picked up the carrot with a stick, touched it with his mouth, and put it back with a hissing sound. He nodded and responded calmly.
"...Okay, you are awesome with your king bomb, you continue." Ding Sihan was convinced.
Bai Bufan put down the oden, picked up his own cards, and threw out a card: "A four."
Ding Sihan: "(;☉_☉)?"
"...No! Bai Bufan, do you know how to play cards!"
In the fortune-telling room.
Farmer Ding Sihan, at this moment, angrily questioned the farmer Bai Bufan standing aside.
"Anyway, the results are all the same," Bai Bufan said calmly, leisurely blowing the hot steam on the oden in his hand:
"After all, I'm not fighting the landlord, but the landlord and the peasants who are in cahoots with her. Since I can't defeat you in seconds with seventeen cards, I might as well have some fun at the beginning and dampen your enthusiasm."
Damn, it turns out that Bai Bufan discovered the setup.
Seeing the truth, Ding Sihan smiled and threw the cards in his hand into the deck, stretched his body, took out his phone and looked at it with concern, shook his head and said:
"It's been almost an hour and a half, why hasn't Lin Li made any movement yet, why hasn't he confessed yet, and he replied so perfunctorily when asked, couldn't something happen, failed, and now is hiding at the bottom of the river crying secretly."
"This is too polluting the environment." Bai Bufan clicked his tongue, but then shrugged: "But I would rather believe that he is hiding at the bottom of the river and laughing happily, failure? Unrealistic."
"Indeed, I can't think of any possibility of failure. Yingbao's love is written on his face, and he even hugged him in front of you, how could he fail." Qu Wanqiu also nodded.
Some brothers, some, it's possible-Bai Bufan thinks that if Lin Li is willing to find him as a military advisor, he should be able to fail. After all,
he is the king of ideas against the sky.
Of course, Bai Bufan won't say this.
The reason why Bai Bufan is here.
After he separated from Lin Li and Chen Yuying, he simply walked back and strolled around. Then, because he was worried that he would run into them again and cause trouble for Lin Li, he simply went to the fortune-telling house to find Ding Sihan and Qu Wanqiu.
As soon as he came in, he saw Ding Sihan and Qu Wanqiu playing Landlord with the owner of the fortune-telling house. They were quite familiar with each other.
They were using Tarot cards.
Tarot cards were originally the ancestors of playing cards, and the small mysteries inside were the predecessors of playing cards. Therefore, some of the numbers and letters marked on them can be played as playing cards
. After asking, he found out that Ding Sihan and Qu Wanqiu didn't tell fortunes at all. After telling the owner the whole story, the owner, who had just graduated from college, immediately had a burning gossip spirit and agreed to let the two in.
They played cards and ate melons, and envied Lin Li and Chen Yuying.
However, Ding Sihan and Qu Wanqiu still paid the divination fee as tea money.
Anyway, Lin Li reimbursed it.
Lin Li really didn't care about spending the money. After all, in his eyes, he would be able to make it back by selling health products to Ding Sihan when she got old.
Just treat Ding Sihan as a bank, as an investment.
I have to mention that opening a fortune-telling house in the market of Xiling, a small town that is not developed and modern, is indeed a genius idea. In an hour and a half, there was no new customer. Ding and Qu didn't even need to get up to make room for the customers.
"Sister, what do you think, opening a fortune-telling house in the market?"
Ding Sihan saw people outside the house. Although there were occasional people stopping outside, no one came in. While shuffling the cards, she asked the owner.
"...I am interested in this. I asked around the market and found that no one else opened one. Then I thought this thing could work and there was money to be made..." The owner shrugged awkwardly:
"But it doesn't matter, because as long as it is not set up on Pinglu Street, there is no stall fee, so although I don't make any money, I don't lose money either."
Wow, freshly graduated college students are pure! Pure!
Bai Bufan gave a thumbs up.
"Sister, according to your idea, have you ever considered opening a coffee shop in the countryside? I heard that the older generation is particularly hardworking. When you make money, you can open a gym so that people in the village can come and exercise after working in the fields." After
an hour and a half of getting along, they were already quite familiar with each other, so Ding Sihan couldn't help but tease.
The owner: "..."
Sister, your words are so hurtful.
"Ding Sihan, your ideas are too unreliable. There are problems with the screening of target customers. The elderly are not interested in coffee and gyms at all." Bai Bufan frowned and
shook his head when he heard it, and couldn't help but complain. Ding Sihan frowned and stared at Bai Bufan suspiciously when he heard it.
It is well known that Lin Li can't speak human language, and Bai Bufan is even less human.
Why are you so serious now?
"Do you have any ideas?" Ding Sihan asked tentatively.
"Hey! You're asking the right person now!" If Lin Li had been here, he would have answered the question long ago. Bai Bufan had been waiting for this sentence for a long time.
Putting down the oden, the Dalmatian Bai Bufan raised a finger to the sky and looked at the owner: "Sister, I have a business opportunity that I have conducted market research on and it is definitely promising. I will share it with you for free, just as a reward for your kindness!"
"Sister, have you ever thought about opening a bar in the highway service area?"
Ding Sihan, Qu Wanqiu, and the owner: "(；☉_☉)?"
Bai Bufan's idea was like thunder breaking through the air, making the room silent, leaving only the clicking sound of the gear ornaments.
"This is a real blue ocean. Based on my nearly sixteen years of experience, I found that no one has ever thought of opening a bar in a service area! There is no competitor!"
"However, think about it, how many drivers who often drive long distances on the highway don't like to drink? This is different from rural gyms and coffee shops. The target customer portrait is extremely clear and accurate, and the granularity is instantly aligned."
"And when entering the service area, isn't it the time when these people are the most tired and sleepy? A hearty dance and drinking are exactly what they need to relax, and the underlying logic is instantly opened up."
"This is simply a dimensionality reduction attack in the vertical field. Sister, imagine the future. When you are the first person to eat crabs, every service area in the country will have a bar of yours in the future. What a spectacular scene it will be-"
Interspersed with a few inexplicable Internet jargons, Bai Bufan has already talked a lot anyway, and the life and death of the audience is not important after all.
"..."
"..."
"Bai Bufan, then I really have to ask you, what about the driver's license..." Ding Sihan asked in a cold tone.
"What's wrong with the driver's license?" Bai Bufan said he had thought about it a long time ago, and waved his hand confidently: "It will be fine. I have studied it. There is no drunk driving check on the highway. Don't worry."
Ding Sihan: "?"
"That seems to be really possible..." Ding Sihan nodded, turned her head and looked at the owner: "Sister, try it, I can invest ten yuan."
The owner: "..."
To be honest, if Ding Sihan suggested that she open a cafe and a gym just to make herself lose money, then Bai Bufan's suggestion is to make herself lose her life.
The court should just open it in front of her house, so that the subpoena can be directly thrown to her by paper plane in the future. How convenient.
"Thank you, your starting point is good, but don't leave yet." The owner smiled helplessly and commented.
"Let's not talk about why I opened this fortune-telling house. I'll take another deck and let's play double buckle."
The three of them had no objection.
The owner shuffled and cut the cards and started to deal.
Ding Sihan and Qu Wanqiu were chatting, and Bai Bufan was waiting for the oden to reach the best temperature.
At this time.
"Swish--Pah!!!"
Outside the already noisy house, the sound of fireworks exploding came from not far away, roaring in the sky.
Ding Sihan and Qu Wanqiu's eyes lit up instantly.
Here it comes!
Bai Bufan was stunned at first, looking at the oden in his hand that was almost not hot, with a complicated look.
The grooves are standing, if you don't confess earlier or later, confess now!
But after a few hesitations, Bai Bufan still put down the oden, damn, brothers are important! He
stood up suddenly and caught up with Ding Sihan and Qu Wanqiu who had already run out of the house. Bai Bufan did not forget to turn around and say goodbye to the owner of the house:
"Sister, we have to go first! Bye!"
"Hey--"
The divination house, which was originally full of vitality, fell into silence again when the curtain that was pulled up naturally fell.
It was out of tune with the noise outside.
"Busy, everyone is busy, it's better to be busy." The left-behind female owner, who still kept one hand facing the front hand, sighed and began to clean up the cards on the table.
"Swoosh——"
The door curtain was pulled open again, and the owner looked up. It was Bai Bufan.
"What's wrong?" The owner's eyes were bright.
Bai Bufan came to the oden and swallowed it whole. Because it was hot, he had to sizzle it in his mouth for two rounds. Finally, he drank a mouthful of the hot soup——
Damn, oden is important!
The oden that I waited for ten minutes to cool down is more important!
"Ah ah... It's so hot... Sister Ha——Bye..."
——Leave again.
Owner: "..."
……
Wang Ze held Qian Ying's hand, and like most people now, he looked at the bright fireworks that suddenly bloomed in the night in the distance.
There is actually such a show that is accumulated?
Why is there no advance notice?
Because now it is not the common fireworks that can be bought on the street. This fireworks are unusually gorgeous.
It is obviously a special product that has been worked on, and the price is probably not cheap.
"It seems that Xi Ling attaches great importance to Pinglu Market." Wang Ze sighed.
"Yeah, I haven't seen this kind of fireworks for a long time." Qian Ying nodded.
It is strictly forbidden to set off fireworks in Xiling City. If you live in the city, you really can't see them unless you go there to see them.
Sometimes I have to wonder if someone is planning to revive the Nian monster, otherwise why don't they give people a holiday or set off fireworks during the Chinese New Year.
During the Chinese New Year, office workers can post a circle of friends: "What day is today? It's as lively as Chinese New Year outside.
" "Hey, it seems there is a drone show." Qian Ying stretched out her hand, squinted her eyes, trying to make herself see more clearly, and said with surprise.
"It really is..."
"Make way, sorry, make way, sorry."
Hearing this familiar voice, Wang Ze, who was still watching, turned his head sharply.
At a time when everyone was stopping to watch the fireworks, the existence of someone moving at full speed was very conspicuous.
Sure enough, his ears were not wrong. The one approaching him at full speed was Bai Bufan.
Running towards him.
Wang Ze tilted his head shyly, suddenly feeling a little embarrassed, loosened the hand holding Qian Ying, scratched the back of his head, blushed slightly and dared not look at Bai Bufan's nod:
"Yes, Bufan, I'm--"
"Make way, sorry, make way--"
Bai Bufan passed between Wang Ze and Qian Ying without stopping.
Wang Ze: "?"
Aren't you here to find me?
Hey, Bai Bufan, you have no heart!
See you on the bed in the dormitory tonight!
Wang Ze gritted his teeth.
"Wang Ze." The voice of the senior sister came.
"I'm here, what's wrong, baby." Wang Ze looked at Qian Ying.
"Why did you let go, do you not love me anymore?" Qian Ying was about to cry.
Wang Ze: "(；☉_☉)?"
"Eh? No! No!"
"Bai Bufan, I know you're a horse!"
Bai Bufan turned around while running. Did someone just call his name?
Forget it, never mind.
...
Ten minutes ago.
When their foreheads were pressed against each other, Lin Li could smell the fragrance between Chen Yuying's hair. Her pupils reflected the other person. The sparks in her eyes flickered with the rhythm of his Adam's apple rolling.
The knocking sound of iron spoons in the sugar painting stall in the distance, the laughter and noise of tourists, and the rustling sound of lantern tassels being crushed by the wind suddenly collapsed into a blurred background sound.
There are many people around, but there seem to be very few people around.
The hearts of the boy and girl are sharp at this moment, piercing the soft heart sharply, reminding each other of their existence, so clear and unique.
Lin Li can clearly hear the sound of the girl swallowing her saliva, and the warm breath brushing across his knuckles, slightly itchy.
Chen Yuying's face was burning hot, and she felt that the tip of her ear was so hot that it could burn through the night wind. The raised arc of Lin Li's wrist bone hit the tip of her nose, but it made her heartbeat even louder like a drum.
The human field of vision is only 200 degrees, which is really not large.
At this moment, Chen Yuying was completely occupied by Lin Li's brilliant smile in front of her, and there was no room for anything else.
"Don't say it now, you can't like me now, understand?"
"Really, I really can't do it now."
His voice came with his breath .
Chen Yuying still didn't answer immediately.
She stared at Lin Li in a daze.
She didn't understand -
in a moment, when she understood the meaning of Lin Li's smile, her eyebrows gradually curved, nodded, and her lips brushed across his palm, softly.
"Okay."
At the end of the words, there was a sweet ending that Chen Yuying couldn't believe came from her body.
"Then I'll let go."
When Chen Yuying nodded, Lin Li let go of her hand, put his hands around her shoulders, and turned her around: "Keep shopping, and finish shopping, okay?"
"Okay."
"Be good, pat your head."
This time it had nothing to do with the big ice stalk. When Lin Li finished speaking, his hand also fell on the girl's head, ruffling her black hair and shifting her hair accessories.
This late touch that had made Chen Yuying a little angry for a day finally came true.
But Chen Yuying didn't have any emotions because of this.
Because her mind was completely not here now, she didn't even realize that Lin Li was touching her head now.
When her body drove herself forward, Chen Yuying only felt that her steps were softer than the cotton candy just now, or in other words, every footprint seemed to be stepping on clouds.
The fingertips quietly climbed up the broken hair behind the ears, stroking the edge of the hair accessories to check if it was crooked.
Chen Yuying suddenly regretted that she should have spent more time dressing herself up this morning and changed into another outfit. Would it be more suitable?
Am I good-looking enough now? Are my clothes messy? Is the makeup on my face a little smudged because it's been a while?
Countless worries overflowed from the bottom of my heart and lingered in my heart, but the corners of my mouth were always raised uncontrollably.
Before, Chen Yuying hoped that this river bank full of lanterns would never end and she could walk on forever, but now, she just felt that it was too long and why it hadn't reached the end yet.
Embarrassment and expectation were condensed into amber in such a time.
It's better to say that the two of them continued to stroll around the market with the same purpose. In fact, no one could distract themselves from the stalls on both sides.
Forward, forward, neither slow nor fast, steadily forward. After
strolling around for a whole day, they were already close to the end of the market. Not long after, the flow of people on the moving line gradually sparse, and the stalls on both sides also began to sparse.
The last stall was a frog-headed man selling balloons. At this moment, the stall owner seemed to realize that the stall owner in front had left and vacated a better stall, so he rode his tricycle full of balloons and started to move forward.
Going forward, there was only desolate darkness.
Finished.
Chen Yuying stopped and looked back, pursing her lips and looking at Lin Li, just looking at him.
"I've finished my tour." Lin Li, holding his phone, saw this and spoke.
"Yeah."
"Okay, then we should go back--" Lin Li paused, and noticed something in his peripheral vision, so he pointed in surprise at a place not far away, "Squad leader, look, what is that?"
Chen Yuying looked over along the direction of his hand, and saw a faint red light flickering in the originally desolate darkness. It seemed
that there was nothing there just now.
"Why don't we go over and take a look?" Lin Li asked seriously.
Chen Yuying turned around, looked at Lin Li for a few seconds, and then laughed out loud.
But after laughing, she covered her mouth, and forced herself to be serious, nodding heavily: "Yeah, okay~ Let's go take a look~"
But when Chen Yuying said this, the breath began to turn from Lin Li's nose into a snort, and it became more and more intense, until he pressed his forehead with one hand, but still couldn't stop, his whole body was shaking, and he laughed out loud.
"Oh my..."
"What are you laughing at?" Chen Yuying stood in place, with her hands crossed behind her back, her face slightly tilted, and she looked up at Lin Li.
"Then squad leader, let me ask you, what are you laughing at?" Lin Li stopped smiling a little, looked directly into Chen Yuying's eyes, and asked.
"Alas, it's all Wang Ze's fault. He ruined my surprise. I was a little exaggerated just now, wasn't I?"
Lin Li smiled and sighed, then straightened Chen Yuying and pushed her forward.
"Go, go, go!"
The red light flashed, guiding the two people's direction.
When the two finally walked to the location of the red light, it was under the fence by the river. Chen Yuying bent down and pulled away the weeds, and found that it was just an electronic ball that would emit red light, and nothing else.
"Look up."
When the voice sounded from behind, Chen Yuying, who was holding the small ball, raised her head.
The first golden-red firework suddenly exploded on the surface of the river, lighting up the night sky, and the explosion startled the night birds perched on the willow branches.
The moment Chen Yuying looked up, thousands of streams of fire formed a light net on the dome, and a group of drones took off from the opposite bank. The light spots shattered by the rotors turned into fluorescent blue tracks, outlining a huge "C" and "L" among the fireworks.
The end of the "C" has not yet dissipated, and the "L" has turned into a tail ring to wrap around the letters, flowing in the air, and pieced together the Chinese character - "Turn around."
"Turn around."
Lin Li's voice sounded again from behind.
The fireworks in the sky were still bright, but Chen Yuying turned around without hesitation, pressed down her hair that was lifted by the night wind with her hands, and looked at the expectant boy and the boy's expectations.
Lin Li held a bouquet of flowers that he didn't know where he got from, which was bright and dripping. The corners of his mouth once again showed that brilliant, joyful, beautiful, and unrestrained smile that could not be concealed at all.
The fireworks were playing behind him and in the boy's pupils.
"Squad leader," Lin Li said.
"I'm here." The girl put her hands behind her back, tilted her head slightly, and waited for the confession to come.
"I think we need to talk."
"What to talk about?"
Chen Yuying was infected with a smile, her voice was so sweet that she herself felt unfamiliar.
"Of course,"
"Talk about love."
