Chapter 915: Wishing to Give Herself to Him (2)

It would be nice if all of them were together, even if they weren’t doing anything.

However, there were only five of them now.

Mu Xiaoxiao shook her head to clear it so that she wouldn’t feel even sadder.

She lifted the two water lanterns that she had made and beamed at everyone, “Let’s go to the river now. There should be the most people there right now.”

The rest looked at each other. Now that she had spoken they couldn’t contest it.

The bunch of them walked out of the courtyard house.

The courtyard house was actually very close to the most bustling area of Nanxiang Old Town. Thus, it only took a few steps to see the excited crowd.

Everyone in the crowd seemed to be holding a water lantern. Some of them were cute, while others looked traditional, and they were all distinctive and unique.

Mo Xiaomeng let out an exclamation, and her mouth was open so wide an egg could fit in it.

“There are even more people than yesterday night!”

Han Qiqing said, “It’s because it’s Friday today. Everyone’s on break and have hurried over, so that’s why the crowd is so huge.”

Mo Xiaomeng was a little shocked. She looked around and asked, “Where should we go then? The riverside seems to be filled with people and it doesn’t look like there’s any space left.”

They could only see a mass of darkness in front of them. It was made up of people’s heads and the group couldn’t even see individual humans and water lanterns.

Song Shijun said, “There’s no rush to release the lanterns. Let’s hang around to absorb the hype and we’ll release them after some of the people have left.

Everyone agreed on this. Thus, they all walked into the heart of the crowd.

Even though this was an old town, there were a few modern buildings added in the past few years. There was a large square built in the middle of the river.

“Someone’s releasing Kong Ming Lanterns! Should we buy some and release them too? There are people playing with fireworks too! I feel like playing with them too,” Mu Xiaoxiao said happily as she pointed at her surroundings, her eyes sparkling with joy.

Han Qiqing and Song Shijun shot each other a look. They were both a little worried about Xiaoxiao.

Han Qiqing leaned close to Song Shijun’s ear and said, “Is Xiaoxiao trying to force herself to be happy? How can she still smile when Yin Shaojie isn’t around?”

Song Shijun replied, “Do you really have to ask this? Of course she’s forcing herself to smile. Let’s not confront her and let her smile. It’s better than seeing her look sad.”

“Yeah, you’re right!” Han Qiqing agreed and walked up to hold Mu Xiaoxiao’s hand.

“Alright, Xiaoxiao, I feel like releasing Kong Ming Lanterns too. I remember how a huge crowd released Kong Ming Lanterns together when I came here last year. That sight was magnificent! I don’t know if it’s going to happen this year too.”

Mu Xiaoxiao smiled as she said, “I don’t know, but I hope it happens. I’ve never seen such a sight. It really does seem magnificent when I think about it.”

Han Qiqing turned to look at Song Shijun. “Oi, do you have any ideas to get more people to release Kong Ming Lanterns?”

“Hmm, what can I do?” Song Shijun scratched his head and said. “Unless… we buy all the Kong Ming Lanterns, gift them to passersby and ask them to release them all at the same time. That’s a possibility.”

Upon hearing this suggestion, Han Qiqing’s eyes widened. “Wow, how many Kong Ming Lanterns would that be?”

Kong Ming Lanterns were actually very cheap if bought online, but their price was inflated more than tenfold in the hands of the street vendors.

It wasn’t that they didn’t have the money to buy them, but buying them all at such a price was just wasteful!
