Chapter 157: Chapter 157: A Different Kind of Fireworks 5

Ning Xixi had a bewildered face: "Whaaat?"

She can’t knit to save her life!

Wuu wuu wuu... Did she just dig a hole and foolishly jump into it herself?

...

A few minutes later, Ning Xixi, with a bag of wool yarn and mixed feelings, got into Ji Yebai’s car.

Ji Yebai seemed to be in a good mood, pressing the button to play music in the car; elegant classical music flowed slowly throughout the cabin.

Ning Xixi fiddled with the ball of yarn and hesitated: "What if my knitting doesn’t look good?"

"Oh, you think you can knit something good-looking?" Ji Yebai said with biting sarcasm.

"You..." Ning Xixi was at a loss for words, her little hands reaching for the music playing button, switching to a catchy, bewitching song—

"

Worries, melancholies, pimples

cuocuocuocuocuocuo

All gone without a trace

Dating, boyfriends, so blissful

Red bean, big red bean, taro

cuocuocuocuocuocuo

What toppings do you wish for

Red bean, big red bean, taro

Getting rich, becoming handsome, I’m getting pretty

..."

Ji Yebai’s mouth twitched: "Can’t your taste be a bit more normal?"

Ning Xixi murmured: "Nope! Humph!"

She knew Ji Yebai hated this kind of song the most, and she just wanted to torture his ears!

To her surprise, Ji Yebai let the song play without any intention of getting angry.

Ning Xixi took a suspicious glance at Ji Yebai and found his handsome face seemed to bear a trace of... indulgence?

Pah pah pah! She must be overthinking!

The car was driving along the riverside of Ying City when the windows were illuminated by colorful fireworks. Ning Xixi excitedly pressed herself against the window looking out, thrilled: "Wow, Dabai! The fireworks show has started!"

"Want to watch it?"

"Yeah, yeah!"

Because of her calling him "Dabai," Ji Yebai’s lips curved up slightly. He found a place to park the car, and the little girl immediately ran toward the riverbank railings like a child let loose, gazing up joyfully at the sky.

Fireworks exploded in the deep blue canvas of the sky, like blooming flowers, like glittering meteors, bursting forth heartstoppingly, a picturesque scene.

Ji Yebai stood beside her, glancing sideways at her: "It’s just some fireworks. Are you really that excited?"

"Of course I’m excited! I heard that tonight’s fireworks show is put on by a man for the woman he loves, because his beloved enjoys fireworks, so he arranged such a grand display!" Ning Xixi chattered incessantly, "Also, do you know why Ying City has so many Sakura trees? It’s all because of this man’s grandfather!

The old man’s wife loved Sakura, so in the year they got married, he planted a city full of Sakura trees for her! Aww~ I really want to marry into this family; they must be so affectionate! So romantic!"

Watching the girl holding her face filled with longing, Ji Yebai opened his mouth as if to say something but then hesitated.

Another cluster of fireworks exploded, scattering into little star fires in the sky, dazzling and mesmerizing, stretching beauty to the ultimate.

"Wow!" Ning Xixi tugged at Ji Yebai’s arm, jumping up, "Did you see that? Did you see? Isn’t it stunning? Isn’t it super, super pretty?!"

Ji Yebai wasn’t looking at the sky, but at Ning Xixi.

With deep, obsidian-like eyes, he gazed at her little face, flushed from the cold, his lips slowly curving into a slight smile.

"Yeah, it’s pretty."
