Ayaka suddenly wants to go back, she has studied hard for a year, but now Ayaka still has the delusion of a little girl.

Delusion to go home to meet my parents, to meet my brother who has withdrawn from work...

but...

The house was still dark, and the candles hanging in the corridor were not as bright as the fireworks in the sky.

The winter wind brought the coldness of the melting snow, and Ayaka also felt a bit of coolness in the corridor.

This is Linghua's home, but Linghua always feels more and more strange.

There is no familiar father and mother, no familiar laughter...

I don't even know where I should go.

At that time, Linghua only wanted to go to a warmer and brighter place.

But... where is that supposed to be?

Ayaka looked up in a daze, but what she saw was not the dark sky.

When a bright yellow light flew out from a certain corner, it illuminated a part of the darkness in Linghua's sight.

Chapter 206 The real eldest lady!

The bright light in the sky attracted Ayaka's attention.

She watched the light fly higher and higher, burn out completely and then fall back into darkness.

The disappearing light in her eyes made Ayaka feel lost, but out of the corner of her eye she saw another bright light flying out from not far away.

The flying lantern made Linghua walk in that direction involuntarily.

What she saw was Mu Xianjun who was supposed to be busy outside, and the housekeeper of the Shenli family who was supposed to come back later...

The young man held a bright lamp in his hand, and the firelight in the lamp shone on his face through the paper, just like the fireworks that shone on Linghua's face before.

The bright light allowed Ayaka to see the boy's expression.

It wasn't the smile he had when he was with him. He had a melancholy look on his face that was pretending to be something, and he was looking at the light in his hand in a trance.

But the lamp in his hand quickly flew out of his hand, and he looked at the bright lamp, but the melancholy on his face never disappeared.

"Excuse me..." Linghua walked over at that time: "What are you doing?"

"Miss..."

The voice made Mu Xianjun turn his head, revealing the same smile he had when he met Linghua before.

"Are you going to release the lanterns too?"

no...that's not the same...

Linghua saw that there were many things in his smile.

That night, Mu Xianjun pointed to the other side of the sea and said that Liyue on the other side was also celebrating the Lantern Festival.

Xiao lanterns are something from the Hai Lantern Festival. They represent Liyue people’s best wishes for the new year...

He said that he was most impressed by the Sea Lantern Festival, and he watched it from a distant mountain.

"All the former masters and juniors are gone, and I am the only one on the dark mountain..."

"But Liyue Port was really lively at that time!"

"One after another, Xiao Lanterns fly out from Liyue Port, as if they want to bring all the excitement of Liyue Port to the sky."

Mu Xianjun, who said this, looked up at the sky, and his tone seemed to be happy.

However, Ayaka knew full well that this was not happy at all.

So dark... so quiet...

Obviously there is only one person...

Ling Hua looked at Mu Xianjun, trying to see some disappointment from his smile.

But he was not disappointed. He suddenly turned his head to look at Linghua.

"Miss, do you know..."

"Actually, I am as noble as you!"

It was still the same smile, but this smile gave Linghua a different feeling.

"When I was in Mondstadt, when I was in Liyue..."

"I met many nobles and many young ladies..."

"But yeah..."

"You are the only real eldest lady I have ever seen!"

The blond boy's eyes were full of stars, but they were more dazzling than the stars in the sky and the lanterns in the sky.

"It's hard not to like such a young lady..."

"I'm so lucky to meet such a young lady!"

...

"Yeah...really lucky..."

"I'm very lucky to meet such Mu Xianjun!"

Different from Mu Xianjun's smile in the memory, Ayaka said this with a bitter look...

Like it...

Her mother told Ayaka that she would definitely meet someone she likes.

Mother told Linghua that she must marry the person she likes.

But the mother only told Linghua that liking is love at first sight in a storybook.

She didn't tell her liking that she still had deep-rooted bone marrow day after day, and then couldn't extricate herself.

It wasn't until a long time ago that Linghua discovered that it wasn't just practicing knife skills that could make her heart beat faster...

It took a long time before Linghua realized that she would only become timid in front of Mu Xianjun...

It wasn't until a long time ago that Linghua realized that being upset might just be a kind of expectation...

It wasn't until a long time ago that Linghua discovered that all this was because of love...

It's been a long time since I heard the news of my brother's death...

It's been a long time since I met Mu Xianjun again...

-but why...

—Why is it taking so long?

It’s been a long time since Mu Xianjun has smiled at himself, and it’s been a long time since he said he likes him like before...

—Why do I only remember now?

Linghua stared blankly at the figure leaving in the distance. She still remembered the New Year that day.

She remembered that day and wanted to respond differently than before.

But also that day, the elder brother who was supposed to be busy with business suddenly appeared...

— Just like...just like today.

Ayato walked up to Ayaka and looked at Wuyanshan who was standing aside with complicated eyes.

"Ayaka...sorry..."

He squatted down and stretched out his hand to pull his sister up, but Ling Hua pushed her hard.

Linghua didn't speak, she kept looking at the back of the person leaving in the distance, and slowly got up from the ground with her two hands.

Ayano seemed to want to help, but the hand holding Ayaka was thrown away again.

Ayaka got up from the ground and shook off the dirt hanging on her body and the dust on her hair.

Squinting her eyes, she took a step gently, her elegant posture was like the real young lady Mu Xianjun said in her memory...

Slowly and slowly, the pace came up.

Linghua knows that the former Mu Xianjun really liked her...

But...but...

No matter how much I am now like the real young lady that Mr. Mu Xian likes, Mr. Mu Xian will never look back.

So she wants to catch up, step by step!

Running with all her strength like never before caused her to fall to the ground again. The numb Ayaka seemed to be unable to feel the pain and just got up from the ground with her hands on her hands.

He put one hand around Ayaka's right hand and helped her up.

Linghua, who thought it was her brother again, wanted to shake off the hand, but smelled an unusual medicinal fragrance.

Yaoxiang made Linghua look over, and found that the person who helped her was Xiaobai.

Seeing Xiaobai's Linghua wanted to say something, a feeling of groggy appeared in her mind.

The dazed Ayaka realized what was going on, and she wanted to push Xiaobaiyo away.

But before the other hand was raised, the eyelids of the two eyes were slowly drooping.

In the blur, she heard her brother's voice.

"Sorry..."

"I can't let you humiliate yourself like this..."

"My brother made a mistake, and my brother will help you solve it..."

The silent Linghua looked at the figure gradually going away, as if he would disappear from his sight in the next moment.

—But...but why did you just give up like this.

——Mu Xian is right in front of me...
