Morning Star

Chapter 175 I wish your heart is like mine, and we can be together day and night

The corners of her lips curled up slightly.

That's right, even if it can't be realized, it's okay for good luck. You still have to make a wish before eating cake and blowing out the candles.

So I held the river lantern in both hands, closed my eyes and made a wish, "I wish everyone good health and happiness."

Then she placed the river lantern in her hand on the river surface. Her river lantern soon blended into the other river lanterns.

Looking at the river lanterns slowly drifting away, the smile on his face faded, and his expression also wandered along with the slowly drifting river lanterns.

As if talking to himself or someone else, he murmured, "It would be great if a wish could come true."

But even if her wish is granted, it still won’t come true if she doesn’t work hard herself?

Because her wish is to go home, but this river cannot give her that.

Mo Xinglan was standing next to her so he could naturally hear what she said.

He lowered his eyes and looked at Chujiu who was squatting beside him. The candlelight from the river lantern in his hand was reflected in a pair of dark eyes.

What is her wish?

As I was thinking about it, I heard the sweet voice of a girl: "Let me help you release the river lanterns."

Chujiu remembered the injuries on his body and it was inconvenient for him to squat down, so he stood up and helped him on his own.

Mo Xinglan looked at her quietly for a long while before handing the river lantern to her.

She took the lantern, squatted down, looked at it and asked, "Do you have any wishes?"

She was very curious about what the black-hearted demon's wish was.

It must be about revenge.

After waiting for a long time, I heard him say calmly: "...No."

"Then I'll put it down." Chujiu was not surprised.

"Ah."

I wish your heart is like mine, and that we can be together day and night.

When this sentence flashed through his mind, he felt ridiculous.

In the past, he never pinned his hopes on these unrealistic things. He only believed in himself. But now he actually believed in these things.

He watched the girl carefully lower his river lantern into the river.

The candlelight from the river lanterns shone on the girl, and in a trance, it seemed that the girl was emitting light all over her body, which made him unable to look away and at the same time gave rise to a sense of meanness.

After releasing the river lanterns, Chujiu clapped his hands, stood up and smiled with a relaxed look on his face: "Okay."

The river lantern that she had just put down behind her drifted with the flow of water to the side of the previous river lantern that was put down. The two river lanterns stuck together and drifted downstream with the flow of water.

Neither she nor he saw this, and no one noticed.

Chujiu turned around and looked around, and found that Chu Furong, who had just been talking to her, was gone, and Gao Yashan was not there either.

After looking a few more times at places a little further away, I finally saw them standing face to face on a staircase not far away.

Gao Yashan was seen holding something and giving it to Chu Furong.

She wanted to see clearly what Gao Yashan brought to Chu Furong, but she couldn't see clearly because of the people walking back and forth in front of her. She really wanted to take a shovel and shovel away the people in front of her who were blocking her view.

At this time, Gao Yashan's face was flushed, and he shyly handed the hibiscus hairpin he had bought before to Chu Furong.

He stammered, "I, I, I saw you walking towards the stall selling hairpins earlier, I, I... this, this hairpin is very, very suitable for you... I'll give it to you."

Chu Furong was wondering why he suddenly called her here, but when she saw him suddenly take out a hairpin, she finally understood.

She was dazed for a moment, her cheeks flushed, and she reached out to take the hairpin from his hand.

Then he whispered, "Thank you."

In a trance, a warmth flowed from the hairpin into her fingertips, and then slowly slid from her fingertips across her heart and into her entire body.

Her fingertips slowly caressed the two hibiscus flowers on the hairpin, and her scarlet lips unconsciously curved into an arc.

She...likes it very much.

When Gao Yashan saw that she accepted it, his heart was relieved, but it was beating faster and faster.

After giving the hairpin to him, he didn't know what to say anymore and suddenly fell silent.

He was afraid that she would hear his heartbeat, so after thinking for a while he suddenly shouted, "Fu, Furong."

"Huh?" Chu Furong was startled by his sudden voice and looked up at him in confusion.

But his red face was full of seriousness and his eyes were determined.

"Furong, I, I will protect you and won't let you get hurt like last time."

"!" Chu Furong's expression was shocked, and even the hand that was stroking the hairpin froze.

As her heart pounded, his words that he would protect her echoed in her mind again and again.

Chujiu, who was not far away, didn't know what Gao Yashan gave Chu Furong, nor did she know what they said, but looking at their expressions, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but want to go shoulder to shoulder with the sun.

She was so happy, as if she had seen her own daughter getting married, and marrying into a good family.

They are progressing quite fast. Could they be expressing their feelings to each other?

Hey Hey……

Well, but speaking of expressing feelings to each other, she suddenly thought of someone, no, a monster.

After looking around, I saw the innocent and beautiful boy on the other side of Mo Xinglan.

He was squatting there playing with water without knowing anything and seemed to be having a lot of fun.

Thinking of what she hadn't finished saying before, she called out to him, "Zhuohua."

"Huh?" He looked up.

Mo Xinglan, who was beside her, had a cold look in his eyes and looked back and forth between the two of them.

The spiritual energy gathered in his palm and he was about to slap Zhuo Hua into the water when he heard the girl beside him curiously ask: "I noticed that you seem to like staying with Mo Xinglan very much, why?"

Mo Xinglan paused what he was doing and looked sideways at her in confusion.

Zhuohua thought for a moment, stood up, and said as a matter of course: "Because I am a demon."

"What does this have to do with you being a demon?" She knew she was overthinking. Zhuohua only knew how to eat, drink, have fun and fight.

Mo Xinglan, who was standing by, thought of something after hearing this and immediately found it funny.

Zhuo Hua walked towards the two of them while answering seriously, "Because Brother Xinglan has a Pure Yin Body, it is easy for him to attract monsters. In addition, he has a Holy Body, so the spiritual energy absorbed by monsters near him is purer, which can speed up their cultivation."

He chuckled foolishly: "It's also because Brother Xinglan has the All Saints Body physique, so monsters below the tenth level don't dare to get close to Brother Xinglan. But the All Saints Body physique has no effect on me. That's why I like to stay with Brother Xinglan."

"Oh, so that's it." Chujiu nodded, then lowered his head and put his fingers on his chin, muttering in thought, "So getting close to Mo Xinglan is a demon's instinct, and being afraid of Mo Xinglan is also a demon's instinct. No wonder the Snake King listens to him so much. Isn't this kind of physique invincible?"

Mo Xinglan lowered his eyes and looked at her, listening silently to her talking to herself, and found her appearance very interesting.

At this moment, a loud exclamation was suddenly heard.

"Wow!"

Chujiu and Mo Xinglan frowned at the same time and looked sideways. They didn't know when Zhuohua had run to a soccer ball stand not far away and was now running over from there in a hurry.
