Chapter 708 - A Fairytale-like New Year’s Night
“Ah! Ge Ge, there are fireworks outside! I thought our landlord doesn’t allow for fireworks? Who’s setting them off? It’s so pretty. They’re just like the ones in the countdown earlier; how pretty…”
Pound, pound!
Pei Ge’s heart pounded wildly as she watched the exploding fireworks. Her ears automatically filtered out her mother’s voice.
In that moment, all her thoughts were centered on that one phrase…
‘Pei Ge, look outside.’
Immediately, she hurried toward the balcony in the living room.

When he lifted his head, he saw her staring at him with a dazed look.
Looking at her eyes, which reflected nothing but him, his lips upturned into a smile.

“You! What are you doing?” She widened her eyes and blinked at him. “Don’t pat me on the head…”
His smile widened at her strong reaction.
He suddenly understood why she liked to tease him because… he liked that feeling, too.
“Okay.” He looked at her with a smile.
“You, why did you come here all of sudden…” For some reason, she became a little shy when she saw the smile on his face, and her face turned slightly pink.
“I missed you, so I came.”
