Upon hearing her voice, Mu Xiaoxiao turned to look at her. Puzzled, she asked, “What’s the matter?”
She turned back to look at her own words and frowned. In a gloomy tone, she asked, “Is it that my handwriting’s ugly?”
Because the words were written a little bigger, she couldn’t really control her writing. Also, she hadn’t written in Mandarin in a while.
Han Qiqing shook her head. “No, it’s not that. It looks nice, and anyway, we’re not having a handwriting contest. Oh yeah, why did you write these?”
Mu Xiaoxiao laughed as she recited what she had wrote. “‘Good health and a long life’ sounds so common, right?”
“Not really…” Han Qiqing was trying to think of what to say.
Mu Xiaoxiao didn’t seem to mind. Her eyes were smiling as she explained, “I think having good health and being safe is the most important thing right now, don’t you think?”
If that person wasn’t here, how long would she, as a person who was used to falling asleep in his arms, need to take to get used to her new situation?
Mu Xiaoxiao lifted her head and gazed at the dark night sky.
Even though the incident from the previous night had already passed, and Yin Shaojie was safe, she still remembered how she felt last night clearly.
There was nothing scarier than losing a loved one.
Thus, her biggest wish now was for him to be in good health and be safe, and never have such a thing happen to him ever again.
Han Qiqing nodded and agreed, “Of course!”
Mu Xiaoxiao turned back and continued with her lantern making.
Han Qiqing looked at her smile. It didn’t seem forced and she felt a little less worried.
She thought that maybe Xiaoxiao was stronger and more optimistic than she thought, and wouldn’t let such a small matter affect her mood.
The water lantern wasn’t difficult to make. Under everyone’s noise, they finished their lanterns in half an hour.
They looked at each other, and Han Qiqing asked, “Then… when shall we release our water lanterns?”
She wasn’t sure if Yin Shaojie was going to come.
Mu Xiaoxiao seemed to think of this too. She lowered her head in silence for a while before saying, “I’ll go and make a call.”
She turned around and made the call, but it didn’t get through like before.
Mu Xiaoxiao squeezed her phone.
Mo Xiaomeng looked at her and said a little worriedly, “Xiaoxiao, how about… Let’s stay here and wait. Yin Shaojie will arrive soon.”
“That’s right. Shaojie wouldn’t stand you up. I believe that he’ll some. Let’s wait some more,” Song Shijun said as well.
Han Qiqing added, “Yeah, it’s still early now anyway. Releasing a water lantern doesn’t take that long, right? Also, there must be many people who are releasing their water lanterns by the river right now. Let’s not fight with the crowd but go after most of them have released their water lanterns.”
Ye Sijue nodded slightly too. “It’s still early.”
Mu Xiaoxiao knew that everyone was doing this for her. She smiled and said, “It’s okay if we don’t wait for him. He might be busy right now. Let’s go to the river. It’s more fun when there’s a crowd.”
Many people gathered during the Water Lantern Festival mostly because there was hype. The Chinese loved hype.
Mu Xiaoxiao was sad but she didn’t want her situation to ruin the mood.
She couldn’t help but think of how happy the six of them had been while camping by the valley during the autumn outing.
