Legendary Fighter
Chapters... 225: A Quiet Night
"You said as if you knew what I was thinking" Zhou Fan said as he approached Xiao LingYun.
Xiao LingYun retreated and moved away from Zhou Fan, she also laid her body on the bed.
"Are you not resting?" asked Xiao LingYun.
"Are you offering a man so easily?" zhou Fan said with a sneer.
Hid..
"No, no, no, in this room there are two beds." Xiao LingYun waved a lazy hand.
...
"Young master, were you expelled by your wife?" the old man asked Zhou Fan who was now at the front of the ship.
Zhou Fan turned his head then smiled, he knew who the old man who greeted him was, he was the owner of the ship he was riding on.
"Sometimes women are like that, at first it's like refusing, but when it comes in... Euh, must have asked for something." The brown-clothed old man sat beside Zhou Fan.
Zhou Fan chuckled at the words of the ship owner, making the old man frown.
"You must have experienced it, right?" The old man nudged Zhou Fan on the shoulder, whereas Zhou Fan could only shake his head.
"Emn... Perhaps," Zhou Fan replied with a small nod, for some reason he felt that the brown-clothed old man was very nice to talk to.
After traveling for approximately one day, Zhou Fan finally reached the dock, there crowded with ships stopping by, also preparing to leave.
"Good fun sir, madam... May you have a handsome and beautiful child." The owner of the ship waved to Zhou Fan, after a pleasant conversation, Zhou Fan knew a little about the old man who was sixty years old.
His name was Ju Gou, he had been in shipping for half his life, he was a resident of the capital, his family was also in the capital.
"It seems like your relationship is quite good," Xiao LingYun decamped with an intimidating look.
"Don't blame me, didn't you justify what they said on board?" said Zhou Fan who then sauntered away not caring about Xiao LingYun who was already irritated.
"Kc... I'm just saying it spontaneously, I just want to get to my room." Xiao LingYun tried to explain while aligning her footsteps.
"No need to be dizzy, why do you think about it ... Did you?" Zhou Fan smiled meaningfully.
Xiao LingYun immediately threw his face, the three of them with Zhou Jim who were often not considered to enter the city which was said to be the city that was the destination of all the couples in the Xiao Empire.
Zhou Fan was curious about the rumors. When arriving at the city gate, there is nothing else from the gate, the gate of the city of Cuan looks the same as the other city gate with the name of the city listed on the gate.
On the streets there are lanterns and lanterns, although still early in the morning, everyone can imagine how beautiful this city is at night.
"Fa... Can we stay until tomorrow? I'd like to see a city that's been talked about very often." Xiao LingYun said in an excited tone, like a child being given candy.
Without saying much Zhou Fan nodded, he was also curious about the appearance of the city at night, even though they were still in the city's emperor, at least the crowd here is not inferior to the crowds that occur in the city center. Said a few people who sounded like the waves were blown by the wind.
Zhou Fan was just spinning around in the market that was indeed the center of the crowd, Xiao LingYun who was getting bored, frowned when she realized the path she had already gone through.
"Are you playing me? Why do you keep circling the alley?" Xiao LingYun snorted while shaking his waist.
Oh..
Zhou Fan looked back, until he forgot about the presence of one more person besides Zhou Jim. He put on an awkward smile.
Zhou Fan ordered two rooms, even though Xiao LingYun's room was right next to his.
...
The anticipated night finally arrived, the true excitement was felt even while Zhou Fan was still inside the room.
Xiao LingYun excitedly knocked on Zhou Fan's door, the young man who was already prepared from earlier came straight out when he heard a familiar voice in his head.
Zhou Fan only went out together with Xiao LingYun, he left behind Zhou Jim who preferred to wrestle with a lump of meat ordered for him.
"Woe... It's so beautiful!" xiao LingYun exclaimed that spontaneously pulled Zhou Fan's hand to get closer to a place that he thought was very beautiful.
In the middle of the village, there is a garden, many ornamental flowers that are deliberately planted there, lanterns also make the atmosphere of the garden so beautiful, so beautiful, even for the size of Zhou Fan who was sometimes indifferent.
As Xiao LingYun was coolly circling the park, a voice made everyone stop their activities.
Some people started counting down, some others could only remain silent with curious faces.
Xiao LingYun approached Zhou Fan who was just sitting on a bench while enjoying the festive atmosphere.
"Come there, everyone goes to the dock," said Xiao LingYun pointing to the dock that began to be crowded with groups of people with their respective partners.
Zhou Fan followed Xiao LingYun, the closer the count sound was to the end.
Two....
One...
Blarp ...
Some people pulled a rope and on the lake suddenly appeared a lot of lotus flower-shaped lanterns that came out from under the wooden bridge that is directly connected to the dock.
Slowly the lanterns that may number in the thousands spread across the edges of the lake, making the night feel warm is also beautiful.
The atmosphere like this is very suitable to be used as a statement, the beauty of the pier is illuminated by thousands of lanterns scattered, making people feel the calm and comfort.
Some of them started cupping their hands, as if they were saying hope and prayer. The others clasped each other's hands and stared at the sparkling lanterns.
While some people who themselves look so serious say hope for the sake of hope in mind.
Although only lip movements can be seen, everyone can certainly guess what they expect, because the purpose of the event that is done once a week is to find a partner or also related to a partner.
"Young man, say your hope in the heart, believe that it will all come true." An old woman said to Zhou Fan.
"Konon said, if a single person comes during this event, will get a partner, if a couple who comes, it will get the blessing of the sky" added the old woman again.
Zhou Fan nodded, then started cupping both hands in front of his chest. So did Xiao LingYun who also heard the words of the old woman.
"My only hope is one, to be able to protect all the people who mean something to me, also I hope to meet Lin'er, and another, hopefully Wei'er and my father and mother are in good shape." Zhou Fan said as the old lady said.
While Xiao LingYun was raising his head while looking up at the sky.
"May my life be happy!"
