The 62nd Chapter: Candlelight Under the Night Sky

  Thanks to Sanpin Bo Le, Taoyuan...

  At the dinner table, no one spoke up, as if they had sensed something unusual.

  Li Luoer quickly finished her porridge in one breath and hastily retreated into her own room without even daring to lift her head.

  Grandpa habitually narrowed his eyes, shook the fan and went out for a walk. Let the children solve their own problems, Grandpa smiled deeply, the muscles on his face were all smiling to the bottom.

  "Shen Xiaoxuan, go take a look at Luo'er!" Chen Zhiquan couldn't help but remind him after seeing Xiaoxuan sitting there motionless for half a day. What's going on? Even someone as oblivious as himself could tell something was wrong, yet Shen Xiaoxuan was so slow to react?

  "Now go in, are you going to make her cry or let her cry?" Shen Xiaoxuan had a knowing expression.

  "Then she won't cry if you don't go in?" Chen Zhiquan retorted.

  "Whatever! It seems I'm a sinner if I don't go in!" Xiaoxuan put down her chopsticks and stormed off.

  Lu Xuan Sheng slowly walked out and looked at Shen Xiao Xuan's back, feeling that apart from her anger towards him, perhaps it was because of the presence of outsiders that she didn't blow up.

  "You were too loud just now, luckily Grandpa is a bit hard of hearing, or he could have killed you!" Chen Zhiquan handed him the chopsticks, still feeling frightened.

  Lu Xuan Sheng's heart was already very uncomfortable, he couldn't understand himself, what had happened to him earlier, how could he have made such an excessive move, no, this time it shouldn't be called excessive, but rather over the top...

  "Hurry up and eat, Lei Chao hasn't come back, I'm watching! If Lei Chao were here, he could kill you too!" Chen Zhiquan looked at Lu Xiansheng with a face full of despair. Is this guy crazy or stupid? He actually dared to take liberties with someone else's daughter in their own home, damn it, this guy is absolutely crazy!

  Lu Xuan Sheng held the spoon, looking at the half-closed door, somewhat entangled.

  "Goddess is calling you, want to pick up?" Chen Zhiquan put his phone on silent mode and pushed it in front of him.

  Lu Xiansheng picked up his mobile phone and walked to the thatched hut in the yard, took a deep breath before answering the call.

  "Xuan Sheng, it's not that I'm betraying your trust, it's just that my sister misspoke that day......" Lu Meiyou explained desperately over the phone.

  "Alright, no need to say more, since things have turned out this way, make it up to me!"

  "What's wrong with you, you little stinker?" Lu Meiyou finally let out a sigh of relief. Fortunately, her brother didn't blame her; otherwise, this matter would never be settled.

  "Bring a cart of fireworks, is half an hour not enough? One hour then!" Lu Xiangsheng said and hung up the phone. He looked at the still flashing photo of Lu Meiyou on the screen and let out a cold laugh. This is what you owe me!

  Chen Zhiquan looked at Lu Xiansheng's sinister appearance and couldn't help but shudder, monster? He was ruthless enough to his own sister, terrifying, extremely terrifying!

  Lu Xiansheng hadn't even entered the door when he heard the sound of crying coming from inside. Although the voice was being suppressed very low, it still felt heart-wrenching pain.

  "Stop crying, Xiaoluo! Either cry out loud or don't cry at all, you're going to hurt your throat like this! Are you trying to suffocate yourself?" Shen Xiaoxuan had been comforting her, but it wasn't working, and he was getting worried too.

  Lu Xiansheng ignored Chen Zhiquan's obstruction and walked straight in, standing beside the bed.

  "Don't be like this, vent your anger on me, don't hurt yourself!" Lu Xiangsheng had never put himself in such a low position before, and he had never said anything like that.

  Li Luo'er, upon hearing Lu Xiangsheng's voice, turned around with a trembling body, her eyes filled with tears that she didn't even bother to wipe away. She scrambled up and pounced on him, using all her strength to punch him with both fists, each blow landing squarely on his body.

  "You're stupid! You'll get beaten to death! Get out of the way!" Chen Zhiquan finally couldn't bear it anymore from outside, although he knew that this was absolutely Lu Xiangsheng's fault, but he also couldn't bear to let him be brutally beaten by Li Lu'er like this. The fist may be small, but after being tempered by anger and grief, it might really take his life.

  "Get out!" Lu Xiansheng gritted his teeth and only said this one sentence to Chen Zhiquan.

  Chen Zhiquan looked at this hopeless person, sighed, and sat down on the bed with a thud, staring wide-eyed at all of this as if he wanted to record it.

  "Alright, alright! Stop fighting!" Shen Xiaoxuan shook Li Lu'er's arm, feeling that it was almost enough. They wouldn't be able to beat Lu Xiangsheng to death this way, but they would definitely exhaust themselves.

  Li Luoer was already crying so hard she was almost out of breath, but she had been suppressing it all along. When Shen Xiaoxuan pulled her, she felt weak all over and stopped moving, her whole body soft and mushy, about to fall down. Fortunately, Lu Xiansheng's quick reflexes allowed him to swiftly pull her into his arms.

  Is this his hug? Why is it so warm? I was just distressed and hated him to death, but why am I not hating him now, and my heart doesn't hurt that much either? What's going on? Why? Why?!

  Lí Luòér was now completely confused about what she really wanted, and in the midst of her confusion, she suddenly felt a bit drowsy. It would be better to just fall asleep, at least that way she wouldn't be plagued by these wild thoughts anymore. This senior year, I absolutely can't go on like this! Just sleep, sleep!

  Everyone looked at Lei Lu'er, who was gradually calming down in Lu Xiangsheng's arms, and they were all puzzled.

  When Lu Xiang touched her hair and laid her flat on the bed, they finally realized that Li Luo had actually fallen asleep...

  What's going on here?!

  "Let's go out, there's something important!" Lu Xiansheng said in a low voice, but still didn't forget to help Li Lu'er cover the towel quilt.

  "I'm not going, you two go, I'll stay with the child!" Shen Xiao Xuan now doesn't even want to bother with them, and thinks they're in cahoots.

  "Alright then, you rest too!" Lu Xiansheng put his hand back in his pocket and followed Chen Zhiquan out of the house, closing the door behind them.

  "Lu Xiansheng, I want to tell you something seriously as your classmate, friend and cousin!" Chen Zhiquan rarely spoke so solemnly.

  "Huh?"

  "Please be more mindful of your actions in the future, don't let others think you're a rascal, okay? Don't you think that what you did today might hurt someone else? As for whether it hurts you or not, I don't know and I don't want to know!" Chen Zhiquan lit a cigarette and took a fierce drag.

  Looking at Chen Zhiquan's serious appearance, Lu Xiangsheng smiled, a smile of satisfaction, delight, or relief.

  Who would have thought that after just a few months, Chen Zhiquan, who had always been like a child, would for the first time in his life, seriously scold himself!

  This is great!

  "Stop smiling, your smile is too sinister!" Chen Zhiquan squatted on the stone bench, with a sarcastic face.

  "I just asked the goddess to pull a cart of fireworks, I don't know if it can be done. If it can be done, let's set off a night of fireworks in the courtyard, give Lao'er some comfort, at least she won't only remember my... uh, Tang Tu!"

  "Fireworks? Are you crazy? It's just the beginning of September! In this hot weather, where can there be fireworks? Moreover, in Xinjiang, the management of fireworks is so strict, let alone an hour, even a day, you can't get that many things. This is simply making it difficult for people, trying to torture Goddess to death!" Chen Zhiquan couldn't understand him more and more, his recent behavior had exceeded everyone's imagination, beyond expectation.

  "Huh? Like this! What's going on?" Lu Xiangsheng looked at him in confusion.

  "Hmph, I'm not as heartless as you, I've already saved my goddess sister!" Chen Zhiquan said with a smug face.

  Lu Xiansheng saw him selling guanzi and didn't bother to respond. The two of them sat like two stone lions, one on the left and one on the right, squatting on the stone bench at the door.

  After about half an hour, the sky had almost darkened, and a panel truck finally came into their view.

  Lu Meiyou personally supervised the car, with over a dozen boxes on it. As soon as she saw Lu Xiansheng and Chen Zhiquan already waiting at the gate, she hastily instructed people to move them into the courtyard, still having to be gentle and quiet, best not making any noise.

  This demand is indeed a bit high.

  Watching everything being moved away, Lu Meiyou was about to say something when she was interrupted by Lu Xiangsheng: "I'll go first, see you another day, sleep well tonight and don't think too much!"

  "Alas..." Lu Meiyou hadn't finished speaking when Lu Xiansheng had already pulled Chen Zhiquan into the courtyard.

  "Outrageous!" Chen Zhiquan gritted his teeth and spat out these two words.

  But still angry, this busy still to help, only to see Chen Zhiquan quickly unpacking, taking out all the tin foil candles inside, and some other miscellaneous things, no light, can't see clearly.

  Lu Xuan Sheng only then understood that it was possible to do this without fireworks. It seems that if Chen Zhi Quan found a girlfriend, would the girl be happier than Li Luo Er?

  After fiddling for over ten minutes, Chen Zhiquan arranged most of the tin foil candles into a plump heart shape, and the remaining candles were arranged at the tail of the heart, forming a large "love".

  What? And a doll... Uh, if Lu Xiangsheng came himself, it wouldn't be like this.

  Chen Zhiquan also put the doll in the middle, with a box of twmiosdol chocolates under its butt. Finally, he took the remaining rose flowers that had been cut from the box and attached a pair of wings to Peach Heart.

  Looking at this perfect romantic figure, Lu Xiangsheng was suddenly a little surprised and felt a bit unacceptable.

  "Stop daydreaming! Lu Da Shao! You go do something useful, I'll light the candles!" Chen Zhi Quan said with a face full of disdain.

  Lu Xiansheng smiled slightly and glanced at Chen Zhiquan, then hurriedly carried out his guitar from the house and also moved a stool...

  Sitting on Peach Heart's wing, clearing his throat, singing "Baby, I'm Sorry".

  "What's going on?" Lí Luòér heard the music and opened her eyes dazedly.

  "It's not just movement and silence, there's also firelight!" Shen Xiaoxuan had already seen the whole process, but felt that all of this was just fleeting, and couldn't make up for anything.

  What is this? A slap and a date? Ugh! Stinky men.

  Li Luo got up by herself and walked closer to the window, looking at this scene outside, suddenly feeling childish.

  "Idiot!" Lí Luòér cursed expressionlessly and turned back to bed.

  Lu Xiansheng seemed to have expected this outcome, but continued to sing passionately, singing "I Like You" after finishing the ineffective song, followed by "Really Love You"...

  I won't believe it, singing all the way to night, you won't still ignore me, right? Even if you ignore me, I want to let you know that I was wrong, and my heart for you...

  Then, one after another.
