Chapter 305: Wanting to Give Her the Best (Part 5)
Sheng Jianan also looked back, then turned around and caught a glimpse of the sparkle in Tang Yanqi’s eyes and the barely concealed smile on her lips. Suddenly, Sheng Jianan’s gaze softened, he stepped to the side, standing next to Tang Yanqi, and together they looked up at the sky.
The fireworks became more and more intense, one cluster had not yet dissipated when the next one was already blooming.
Unlike those available during festivals, the fireworks now were undoubtedly spectacular. Sheng Jianan watched for a few seconds, his gaze once again falling on Tang Yanqi’s profile.
Her eyes appeared especially bright in the night, under the dazzling fireworks.
Sheng Jianan’s heart skipped a beat; the countless stars couldn’t compare to the brilliance in her eyes.
The man’s gaze darkened, reaching out, capturing her waist, pulling her closer, a deep kiss...
The movements were seamless, giving Tang Yanqi no time to react. Sheng Jianan’s hands tightly gripped her waist, holding Tang Yanqi firmly in his embrace.
Entwined and tangled, she evaded, he pursued, forceful and domineering yet endlessly gentle.
Until he felt the person in his arms soften from stiffness and begin to lack oxygen, Sheng Jianan finally released her.
Tang Yanqi was already out of strength, not knowing if it was the intoxicating night or today’s emotional turmoil, she felt that Sheng Jianan’s kiss was more captivating than ever before, irresistible.
Fireworks over the sea continued to ascend, Tang Yanqi no longer felt the initial excitement, Sheng Jianan still held her waist, his low and gentle voice sounded in her ear, "Happy birthday."
Her body froze, Tang Yanqi was stunned for a full five seconds, fireworks bloomed in the sky, and flowers of the heart blossomed within.
Before today, before just now, she had never thought that one day, Sheng Jianan would say "Happy birthday" to her, she had never thought that his "Happy birthday" could sound so pleasing.
The previously conceited thought, the thought of being self-indulgent once again surged like a tidal wave.
Tang Yanqi forced herself to stand up straight, raising her eyes to look at Sheng Jianan, the brightness in her eyes was overwhelming, more brilliant than the stars in the sky and the starlight beneath her feet, she summoned unprecedented courage and spoke, "Sheng Jianan, do you..."
"Boom"
The largest cluster of fireworks of the night exploded in the sky, the enormous sound devouring Tang Yanqi’s last three words.
With a smile on his lips, Sheng Jianan looked towards the sky with his arm around her shoulder, the blossomed fireworks formed four large characters, hanging far away in the night sky.
Happy Birthday!
He wanted the whole city to see, Sheng Jianan wished his woman a happy birthday.
Tang Yanqi no longer cared about the beautiful scene in the sky, but after the noise subsided, the words she had mustered up the courage to say could no longer be spoken.
Once driven, then declined.
She wondered if her delusions were like the fireworks, magnificent yet extraordinarily brief.
Tang Yanqi bit her lip tightly, everyone said she was resilient, everyone said she was strong. But if she had to choose an animal to describe herself, Tang Yanqi would undoubtedly choose a turtle.
The shackles on her were like the turtle’s shell, heavy and burdensome, yet it was the hard shell she showed to others.
With a little provocation, she retreated back into her shell.
When the fireworks faded, Tang Yanqi’s words also disappeared. Sheng Jianan picked her up sideways; she had arrived stepping on starlight, he carried her back stepping on starlight.
