The not-too-big-not-too-small lotus pond was ringed by colorful neon lights. Fireworks trailed long tails across the night sky, descending from high above. The fireworks’ reflections scattered across the water’s surface, shooting up from the middle of the lotus pond.
It was so beautiful...
How could anything be this breathtaking?
In a daze, she truly mistook herself to be within a magnificent fairyland.
She couldn’t even distinguish between reality and illusion.
Such a romantic scene had to be ticulously arranged by soone, right?
Who was it arranged for along with whom?
In that mont, an indefinable feeling of envy brushed across her heart.
Suddenly coming to her senses, she realized she might have unintentionally wandered into soone else’s carefully planned event.
Where is everyone?
She looked around, but there wasn’t a single person in sight.
It seed as though the whole world only contained her, the romantically scattered fireworks in the sky, the hazy red glow from the pavilions, the heart-shaped red candles flickering on the lawn, the lotus flowers and leaves spread across the pond reflecting each other’s radiant beauty.
Where was the hero and the heroine?
Should she leave the scene? Would she, as a bystander, spoil the romance of others?
However, she searched with her eyes for a while and still didn’t see the main characters show up.
A smirk appeared on her face, "Since no one is here, I guess I can enjoy this alone."

Gu Shaocheng was lazily leaning against a leather sofa. His eyes sparkled with a soft glimr. The subtle smile revealing a sense of deep aning, idly played around his face. He was flipping through photos on his cellphone.
When Hua Hua suddenly popped up behind him, he promptly put away his phone and gave him a glance.
"Brother, what are you looking at so happily?"
Hua Hua chuckled, wanting to sneak a peek. Even n were not exempted from prying and gossiping. But Gu Shaocheng treated his phone like a treasure, clutching it tight.
At that mont, Bai Wuqing handed over a piece of paper, "Brother, take a look at these love ssages I wrote, what do you think?"
Gu Shaocheng had an impeccable mory. Taking the page, he scanned it line by line, engraving the ssages into his heart.
What was it?... "You are my tenderness from a past life, my youth at bedside. You sprinkle sweet fragrance in the moonlight, warming my lifelong affection."
What was it?... "For you, I sank into the reincarnation, pale as the fleeting, eternal love in this mortal world."
What was it?... "In this lifeti, you are my red-faced confidante forgotten for a thousand years, you are my sentint tinged with the dust of the earthly world, you are my longing spread out in sadness."
What was it?... "This grand finale, it doesn’t overthrow any city, nor any nation, but it overthrows everything that I have. What do you desire, a lifeti of companionship? Or montary pleasure? What I desire is simply to possess you."
...
Reading them, Gu Shaocheng asked, "Where did you copy these lines of poetry from? They’re nice, but they seem a bit too excessive for spoken language, almost too sentintal?"
Bai Wuqing seed indifferent and his usually refined deanor appeared a bit complacent. "Sentintal? I’ve won Jingru over with these exact lines back in the day. Won love this kind of stuff, especially these flowery terms. They’re like pretty clothes to them and frankly, they just can’t resist."
