In the quiet night, a silver light suddenly flew into the air and exploded with a bang.

The pitch-black night was instantly illuminated. Lin Qingqian glanced over and saw the man who was standing right in front of her. His hands were holding onto the open hem of his coat like a wall blocking the bone-chilling wind from reaching her.

There was no emotion on the man’s exquisite face. His deep eyes looked at the fireworks in the night sky.

Lin Qingqian’s heart tightened, and a warmth surged from the deepest part of her heart into her limbs and bones. Her throat tightened, and she didn’t know what to say for a moment.

Jiang Yanshen didn’t notice her abnormality and asked calmly, “It’s already midnight?”

Lin Qingqian glanced at her cell phone. The screen showed 11:57 PM. “There are still three minutes left but some people will set it off in advance.”

Jiang Yanshen nodded and looked at her with burning eyes.

Lin Qingqian, whose limbs were ice-cold in the sub-zero weather, felt her face heat up inexplicably. She turned her head away to avoid his gaze. “I’m not cold.

You don’t have to do this.”

Jiang Yanshen blinked, his expression unchanged. “I’m feeling hot from the drinking.”

Lin Qingqian:

11:59 PM.

Lin Qingqian took out a lighter from her pocket and walked up to the firecracker. She bent down and lit the fuse before quickly running back.

The moment the fuse was burned out, the silver light shot into the night sky, scattering in all directions with a loud bang.

The colorful fireworks lit up her exquisite face in the dark night and lit up the fire in Jiang Yanshen’s heart which made his eyes burn even more.

When the bell rang in the distance, Lin Qingqian turned her head and said,

“Jiang Yanshen, Happy New Year.”

She was stunned after saying that.

His gaze was so hot that it seemed to be able to burn a hole in her heart in the cold night.

The moment her eyelashes were caressed by the cold wind, Jiang Yanshen lowered his head and kissed her lips.

After a short second, he quickly took a step back and said in a hoarse voice, “I’m sorry. I couldn’t hold it in for a moment.”

His cold brows were tightly knitted, and he was as frustrated as a child who had made a mistake.

Lin Qingqian held her breath and felt the residual warmth on her lips. She couldn’t tell whose alcohol smell it was. It was as if the burning phosphorus powder had exploded in her mind, and her mind became blank.

It’s just that many memories had gradually reappeared in her mind just now.

“I just… really, really like you.”

“I’m just not sure if you’re safe. I’m also afraid… that you’ll fall for another woman outside…”

“I don’t want a divorce, I won’t divorce you…

“I really, really like you.”

Seeing that her face was gradually turning pale, Jiang Yanshen panicked.

“Qianqian, don’t be afraid. I didn’t lose control… and I won’t hurt you.”

He raised his arm and wanted to touch her shoulder with his fingertips but they froze in midair for a moment before retracting slowly.

Lin Qingqian’s rationality was pulled back. She looked at the handsome and helpless man in front of her in a daze. There was an indescribable emotion accumulating in her chest but she suppressed it…

She even felt an indescribable sense of guilt.

She turned around and ran down.

Jiang Yanshen reacted and hurriedly followed her. His low and hoarse voice was filled with worry. “Qianqian, slow down…”

Before he could finish his sentence, Lin Qingqian twisted her left leg and fell to the ground.

Jiang Yanshen’s pupils constricted fiercely, and hurriedly squatted down. “How are you? Did you hurt yourself anywhere?”

He was probably really worried and said, “Why were you running away? Who knows how dangerous the road is in the dark? I already said…”

His voice stopped abruptly.

Lin Qingqian looked up at him, her eyes full of tears..
