Can you please stop hating

Any activity related to competition can easily arouse everyone's competitive spirit, and board games are no exception.

I was able to remain calm at the beginning, but I became more and more excited as I played more and more. However, I was truly happy.

Before she knew it, it was already half past eleven and the game of cards had not yet ended when Pei Jingtong's cell phone alarm suddenly rang.

She took a look, turned it off and said, "The fireworks show will start in half an hour. Shall we go to the terrace?"

Zhang Yichi: "It's still a little early. We only need to go there in ten minutes, otherwise we will have to face the cold wind."

"It's better to hurry up sooner rather than later. It would be a shame if we missed it. Besides, we bought fireworks, so we can play with them by ourselves first."

Pei Jingtong put down the cards and urged, "Hurry up, hurry up, I've been looking forward to it for a long time."

Since she said so, the others didn't want to spoil the fun anymore and put on their coats and went to the terrace.

The hotel's terrace faces the direction of the Huayang River. The floor is not particularly high, which is perfect for watching the fireworks show.

It was the first time for Yu Xi and Qiao Yining to come here, and they curiously ran to the fence to look at the river view.

The surface of the Huayang River is particularly wide. The water is black at night, but it reflects the glitz of the cities on both sides of the river, adding a bright color to the cold winter, which is both tragic and gorgeous.

Qiao Yining sighed: "There are so many people in the square."

Upon hearing this, Yu Xi glanced down and saw that the place was crowded with people. It was even more crowded than when they first arrived, and it was uncomfortable to look at.

The gap between people is really huge. When watching a fireworks show together, the group of people below were so crowded that they couldn't move, while the seven of them occupied the entire terrace.

"Are you cold?" Jin Zhuoxiao's voice suddenly came from behind.

Yu Xi shook her head: "It's not cold."

Pei Jingtong called from behind: "Xixi Ningning, come over and order some fairy wands. I bought a lot."

Zhang Yichi squatted on the ground and rummaged through the shopping bag for a long time. Finally, he frowned and asked, "Besides these, didn't you buy anything else?"

Pei Jingtong: "Aren't there a lot? What else do you want?"

Zhang Yichi: "What's the use? They are all different types of fairy wands. Is it appropriate for a grown man to play with fairy wands?"

Pei Jingtong: "What's wrong with that? I think this is beautiful and safe."

Zhang Yichi: “…”

Pei Jingtong opened a box of fairy sticks and distributed them to Yu Xi and the others, then suddenly remembered and said, "I forgot to buy a lighter. Did you bring a lighter?"

Jin Zhuoxiao and Zhang Yichi took out their lighters from their pockets. Pei Jingtong saw this and said to Zhang Yichi, "That's great. Lend me yours."

"Let me light a cigarette."

Zhang Yichi took a cigarette out of the cigarette box, put it in his mouth, lit it, and handed over the lighter.

Xu Ge took it over, moved the lighter aside, and blocked the wind to light the fairy wand for Pei Jingtong.

When the sparks lit up, Pei Jingtong said excitedly: "Baby, look how beautiful it is, help me take a picture."

Xu Ge smiled: "Okay."

Pei Jingtong was standing on the terrace holding two lit fairy wands and changing her poses, while Xu Ge was professionally acting as a photographer.

She is so tall, but she has to do splits to accommodate Pei Jingtong, which is quite funny.

Yu Xi was staring at the two of them in a daze, and Jin Zhuoxiao asked, "Can I help you?"

Yu Xi came back to her senses, looked at him, and then nodded.

The wind was a bit strong on the terrace at this time. Jin Zhuoxiao raised his palms to light a fire. The orange-red flame illuminated his palms and face, making him look affectionate and gentle.

Yu Xi stared at his profile, feeling very soft.

Soon, the fairy wand was lit, making a crackling sound and exploding into star-like lights.

Yu Xi looked at the dancing sparks and felt a little nostalgic. She hadn't lit a fairy wand for a long, long time.

She remembered that on New Year’s Eve, Yu Li would also take her to play with fireworks. At that time, she was too timid to light them, so Yu Li lit them for her.

Now that she dared to light them, and Yu Li was no longer around, it seemed that only the fireworks were still as beautiful as before.

Yu Xi couldn't help feeling a little sad. After all, things and people have changed.

Seeing that they had all lit the fire, Qiao Yining also began to think about borrowing fire.

She thought Liang Mo wouldn't have a lighter, and she didn't dare to ask Liang Mo if he had one.

After looking around, he finally decided to borrow Xu Ge's fire. However, before Qiao Yining could act, he heard Liang Mo's voice: "Do you want fire?"

Qiao Yining was stunned for a moment, then looked at him in astonishment and asked, "You have it?"

Liang Mo didn't answer, but lowered his eyes and spread out his palms.

Qiao Yining looked over and found a silver kerosene lighter without any patterns on it, which surprised him even more.

Liang Mo actually has a lighter? Does he smoke, too?

Qiao Yining found it quite magical, because Liang Mo didn't look like someone who would have a habit of smoking. How could one describe him?

He gives people a feeling of being overly serious, making people think that he is the type who concentrates on his studies at school and his career at the company.

Seeing that Qiao Yining hadn't spoken, Liang Mo asked again: "Do you want to order?"

Qiao Yining hesitated for two seconds, but couldn't help asking: "Is this your lighter?"

Liang Mo: "Yeah."

Joyning: "Why do you have a lighter?"

Liang Mo looked at her for two seconds and said calmly: "Because I smoke too."

Qiao Yining: “…”

He actually smoked. She couldn't help but be curious. What would it be like to see Liang Mo smoking?

Liang Mo's eyes fell on Qiao Yining's face. The pupils behind the lenses seemed to be able to see through her thoughts, but he just asked calmly: "What's wrong?"

Qiao Yining quickly interrupted the fantasy in his mind, shook his head and said, "Nothing, can you lend me your lighter?"

Liang Mo: "Okay."

After getting a positive answer, Qiao Yining took the lighter from him.

Perhaps because it had been in the pocket for too long, the body of the kerosene lighter was still warm, and Qiao Yining felt a little weird.

But she couldn't care less, she opened the lid of the lighter and tried to light the fairy wand.

But the cold wind was blowing hard, making it difficult to light. Qiao Yining was about to turn sideways to block the wind, but Liang Mo said first, "Give it to me, I'll light it for you."

Qiao Yining paused, feeling a little embarrassed, and had to hand the lighter to him obediently.

Liang Mo turned his back to block the wind and walked very close to Qiao Yining.

Qiao Yining stood where she was, but her back stiffened unnaturally because of his approach, and she almost couldn't stop herself from taking steps back.

Fortunately, she forced herself to hold it back, otherwise she couldn't imagine how embarrassing the situation would be.

Liang Mo stopped two steps in front of Qiao Yining and raised his palms to protect the lighter and fairy wand.

Because they were close to each other, a relatively windproof environment was formed between the two of them, and the fairy wand was quickly ignited.

Qiao Yining was a little excited and smiled unconsciously.

It is convenient to light the next one after the first one, because you can use the old fire to light the new one before the previous one burns out.

Pei Jingtong bought a lot of fairy wands, enough for them to play with for a long time.

Just as Qiao Yining lit up the second cigarette, she heard Liang Mo ask, "Can you block the wind for me? I want to light a cigarette."
