In order to attend the celebration, Jingxia and the other four stayed at the Milje family manor for a few more days.
On the day of the celebration, the whole city was immersed in a joyful atmosphere, and the streets were filled with people with bright smiles.
Early in the morning, Jingxia and the others changed into ceremonial robes kindly provided by Elliot in the manor.
Jing Xia's dark, wide robe concealed his lean figure, a silver belt cinching his waist and outlining his streamlined figure. The collar, embroidered with dragon scales, revealed his slender, fair neck. The sleeves resembled outstretched dragon wings, and the hems resembled swaying tails.
Jing Xia was holding a pitch-black mask with dragon patterns in his hand. When it covered his smiling lips, his aura became even more imposing, making people feel as if they were seeing a miniature version of an admiral.
Lan Huaili and the others also changed into the same style of robes in various colors.
Miljie glanced at Jing Xia's empty side and asked, "Aren't you going to take Mumu out to play?"
Jing Xia, who was adjusting his sleeves, shook his head: "There are too many people, it doesn't want to go."
When he got up in the morning, Yirui, who was still in cub form, asked to stay in the room, saying that he had something to deal with.
Jing Xia lowered her eyes and adjusted her sleeves, as if she was making a very delicate handicraft.
Beside him was Lan Huaili, who had already changed into a robe. He touched the dragon scale pattern on the corner of his robe, a little dazed. Why did he feel like he had seen this pattern somewhere before? It definitely didn't look like his fish scales.
"Should we go our separate ways today or go shopping together?" Herbert, who had changed his clothes neatly, leaned against the wall and watched his teammates tidy up their clothes.
"Let's separate? It seems like we all want to play different games?"
August thought about it. Everyone was interested in different activities they mentioned yesterday. Lan Huaili and Herbert seemed to want to buy some things to mail back home.
Lan Huaili, who was wearing a light blue robe, nodded in agreement: "Okay."
"Then let's split up today!"
"Okay~"
…………
Jing Xia walked leisurely on the busy street, playing with the mask in his hand.
Most of the people around were residents of the tourist planet wearing long robes, and there were also many tourists walking around. There were also various small stalls on both sides of the street. These were usually not allowed on the tourist planet, but today's celebration made an exception.
Jing Xia casually bought a string of special candies and was strolling around with them in his mouth. Suddenly, he noticed something and turned around abruptly.
A black-haired young man wearing a black robe and a silver belt was standing in the crowd behind him, smiling, his silver eyes looking at him gently.
Jing Xia released the candy in her mouth and took the candy stick in her hand. Her dark eyes lit up, and she was a little surprised and shouted in a low voice: "Yi Rui?"
"Yeah." The black-haired, silver-eyed boy nodded, the smile on his face still lingering. He opened his arms and caught Jing Xia who was rushing towards him.
Jing Xia buried her head in Yi Rui's arms, then raised her head and looked at him with sparkling eyes: "I thought you really weren't going to come out?"
Yirui touched Jingxia's hair and rubbed it like Jingxia had done when he was in his cub form.
"I took care of some things and came out to see you."
"That's perfect. We can go shopping together and pick up some things to bring back to Xiu."
"good"
Yirui held Jingxia's hand very naturally and strolled with him slowly in the festival market.
"What's wrong with your eyes?"
"I asked Xiu to teach me some illusions before."
His original golden vertical pupils were too conspicuous, and he didn't want to turn them into black eyes like Jing Xia, so he chose to use a lighter silver.
Not far behind him, Milje, who was wearing a beige robe, rubbed his eyes. When he opened them again, the two familiar figures had disappeared.
"What's wrong?"
August, who was selecting jewelry to give back to Aunt Meloy, looked up in confusion and asked.
"Nothing, I think I saw Xiao Xia just now, but she seems to have a boyfriend."
At first he thought one of the men in black robes was Jing Xia, but later he saw that man pounce on another man with intimate movements, and it seemed like he must have made a mistake, but the clothes looked very much like what Jing Xia was wearing today.
Scratching his head in confusion, Milje gave up worrying about whether the person in the black robe was Jingxia, and chose to lower his head to help August pick things, and picked up a headband embroidered with gold thread.
"Choose this one. My mom likes to see my dad wearing this."
August:?
At this time, Jingxia was also pulling Yirui to pick items around the market, and suddenly caught sight of an old man's tea stall.
The dark wooden tables and chairs stand out among the metal stalls. Exquisite white tea sets are placed on them. The clear tea is emitting misty hot steam, and as the hot steam dissipates, the fragrance of tea also hits you in the face.
However, it seemed that few tourists were willing to try the seemingly bland tea, and there were only a few people around the stall.
Following the clear aroma of tea to the stall, Jing Xia met the eyes of the white-haired old man.
One old and one young, one with black hair and one with white hair, but they both have eyes as dark as the night.
The neatly dressed old man grinned, revealing his neat teeth. The wrinkles at the corners of his eyes seemed to carry a kind smile. He stretched out his hand, which was as thin as a withered tree, and poured another cup of tea for Jing Xia. His voice was filled with the joy of meeting an old friend in a foreign land: "I haven't seen a fellow Blue Star person in a long time."
"Thanks"
Jing Xia let go of Yi Rui's hand, and with his fair hands he steadily took the white teacup from the withered and dull hands, without the tea in the cup shaking at all.
The old man kindly handed Jingxia tea and poured a cup for Yirui as well: "Little boy, you drink too."
