âHee hee. I was thinking my little sister would look so pretty, no matter whom she ends up taking after.â
Chu He looked at Yueyaoâs back view and muttered, âShe looks more like her daddy, doesnât she? What do you think?â
âUh huh.â
âYour little sister might be prettier if she ends up looking more like her daddy.â
Gu Linxi disagreed. âWho says so? Sheâd look very pretty too, if she took after Mommy!â
âWhat a sweet talker you are!â Chu He couldnât resist scratching the bridge of his nose.
Halfway through the barbecue, Mu Yazhe suddenly brought in several boxes of fireworks. The moment they saw the fireworks, the twins were so excited that they stopped bothering with the barbecue. They scampered to the beach and circled their father.
Mu Yazhe quickly warned them, âDonât stand here. Itâs dangerous!â
âHmph. Whatâs so dangerous about it?â Little Yichen was not impressed. He had even played with fragmentation grenades in the past. Fireworks did not scare him at all.
âOh, keep an eye on your little brother then. Donât let him get too close in case he gets hurt.â
âAlright.â Little Yichen immediately took Baby Chuâs hand obediently and walked off to the side.
Baby Chu tried to get closer, but the boy took his hand again and warned him, âDonât get too close.â
Baby Chu looked incredulous. âWhy?â
âIf the fireworks misfire, theyâll splash all over you. Then itâll be dangerous.â
Baby Chu immediately understood the boyâs explanation, but he could not contain his excitement. He looked expectantly at the fireworks and said jubilantly, âFireworks, fireworks!â
It was their first time setting off fireworks by the sea, and the children were inexplicably excited.
Mu Yazhe studied the surroundings. It was hard to use a lighter on the windy beach, so he did it the old-fashioned way. Lighting a cigarette, he made sure there were no children standing around, he used the spark to light the fuse and stepped back quickly.
After ten seconds of lead time, there was a whoosh as the fireworks shot into the air like meteors and rapidly disappeared into the night. Then they heard a few more whooshing sounds as more fireworks continued to rise into the sky, but there were no fireworks that spread out like they expected.
Baby Chu looked surprised. âHuh? Where are the fireworks?â
Natalia and Yueyao also looked around puzzled.
Normally, when fireworks get launched into the air, they would explode in brilliant colors. But now, nothing of that sort was seen.
As the group looked at each other, they heard a few pops. Dozens of fireworks, like fiery trees, suddenly bloomed in the night sky. The falling fireworks spread slowly against the night sky like tassels.
These fireworks were bought from a local Chinese vendor. It was absolutely top quality, so the dazzling effect did exceed Mu Yazheâs expectations. He had never set off fireworks at the beach, so the idea suddenly struck him.
At that moment, the waves, the evening winds, the dark night, the brilliant fireworks⦠They were a perfect combination that couldnât be more beautiful.
Yun Shishi stared at the brilliant fireworks in the night sky in stunned silence, momentarily forgetting where she was.
Things that are breathtakingly beautiful always make one forget their worries.
She looked at the fireworks in silence. Almost half of the night sky was illuminated by the bright brilliant display!
âSo pretty, So pretty!â Baby Chu clapped his hands excitedly! Despite his wide knowledge base, this was the first time heâd set off fireworks on the beach, and they were such beautiful fireworks. He couldnât get enough of them.
