Chapter 674: I Want to Kiss You
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In her eyes, all she could see was this man, and the same was true in her mind. He had knelt on one knee to wash her feet, saying it was a small matter. Yet, he had no idea of the ripples it stirred within her…
Suddenly, two loud bangs echoed from outside, pulling Gu Zi back to reality. She was so startled that she nearly fell back into her chair after standing up.
Fortunately, the man was quick to react, catching her and leading her towards the balcony of the bedroom. The noise from outside continued as they stepped onto the balcony, looking up at the shimmering sky above.
Two or three massive fireworks exploded in the sky, predominantly red, supplemented with gold and other colors. The red was clear and bright, radiating joy and warmth. The gold was dazzling, like a bounty of harvested grain tossed into the sky, a tribute to nature’s nurturing and gifts. The light from the fireworks spread out, illuminating the night sky and their smiling faces.
Gu Zi instinctively reached out, wanting to catch the dazzling display, even though she knew that after the brilliance, all colors would eventually fade into the night sky. She was somewhat dazed, reaching out towards the fireworks.
“The fireworks of this era are so colorful, so beautiful,” she mused. “Year after year, what we perceive as a long time may just be a very short period, as fleeting as the appearance of fireworks. Compared to many years later, there’s not much difference.”
Su Shen had been captivated by the light reflecting on her beautiful face. Her words, however, left him puzzled. “Many years later? How do you know the fireworks will still be the same?” he asked.
Gu Zi snapped back to reality, realizing she had said something she shouldn’t have. She quickly explained, “I read in a book that fireworks have been around for many years. According to the descriptions in the book, the fireworks from back then are quite similar to what we see now. Perhaps from our time onwards, for many years to come, the fireworks will remain as dazzling and beautiful.”
As she spoke, she observed the man, relieved to see the confusion in his eyes dissipate. She had been too emotional earlier, almost letting slip her thoughts about the fleeting nature of time. Thankfully, it seemed Su Shen wouldn’t dwell on it.
