Chapter 324: An Ordinary Moment Under the Thousands of Fireworks
Gongsun Ce glanced in the direction of the clothing store and found that only Chen Duo came out, while Er Zhuang and Fu Rong seemed to be still picking and choosing in the clothing store.
So he asked Chen Duo, "Have you decided so quickly? Do you only want to wear this set of clothes, or have you ordered many sets of clothes for you?"
"I only have this one, and I only want to wear this one. After all, it's something I've never tried before." Chen Duo said softly.
After hearing what Chen Duo said, Gongsun Ce stood up and walked into the beverage store and ordered two vanilla milkshakes.
After walking out, he handed a cup to Chen Duo. Chen Duo imitated Gongsun Ce in shaking the milkshake, and then began to drink the milkshake in his hand.
When she felt the cool taste, she couldn't help but tilt her head and ask, "What is this? Ice cream?"
Gongsun Ce replied: "This is a milkshake, you can think of it as ice cream that is about to melt. Does it taste good?"
Chen Duo shyly tucked her hair behind her ears and said, "It tastes good, but it doesn't seem to suit me. My health wasn't very good before, and Uncle Liao and the others didn't let me eat these things, so I'm very curious about their taste."
Gongsun Ce extended his hand to Chen Duo and invited her, "Do you want to try other foods you haven't eaten before?"
Chen Duo nodded, and the next moment Gongsun Ce grabbed Chen Duo's hand and started running wildly on the street.
So when Fu Rong and Er Zhuang realized that Chen Duo was missing, they put down the clothes they were matching and walked out of the store.
But they found that not only Chen Duo was missing, but Gongsun Ce was also missing. They immediately realized that it was Gongsun Ce who abducted Chen Duo, and they didn't know where he had taken her.
Er Zhuang and Fu Rong suddenly became anxious. Fu Rong was anxious because she knew Chen Duo's situation very well. If Chen Duo ran around, it might cause some chaos.
Er Zhuang's worry was completely different from Fu Rong's. He was worried that Chen Duo, a simple girl, had been cheated.
On the other side, Gongsun Ce took Chen Duo and started wandering around the night market.
After all, it was already dark, and some small stalls began to set up on the roadside. Gongsun Ce looked at some snacks on the roadside and asked Chen Duo: "Do you want to try them all?"
Chen Duo looked at these roadside stalls and nodded. Because she wanted to learn some common sense of normal people, Liao Zhong showed her a lot of information.
Later, Liao Zhong also helped her learn some things on the Internet. She knew very well that these stalls might not be hygienic, but many people enjoyed them.
Chen Duo looked around, pointed at a potato tower on a side stall and asked, "Can I eat that?"
Gongsun Ce nodded and said, "Okay."
So based on Chen Duo's constant choices, he bought a lot of snacks for Chen Duo.
Chen Duo does not have a clear purpose in choosing snacks, but she just wants to eat whatever she finds interesting.
Chen Duo ate as she walked, but Chen Duo was more interested in trying new things, so she would give up eating after just a few bites.
The food that Chen Duo didn't finish was eaten by Gongsun Ce or thrown away. After all, he could be picky about food sometimes.
However, in the eyes of many passers-by, the interaction between the two made them like a young couple, but Chen Duo was completely unaware of it.
The two walked and stopped along the way, and soon came to an open space. Next to the open space, there were many small stalls selling fireworks.
At this time, there were no restrictions on the setting off of fireworks, so there were still many small vendors on the roadside. Gongsun Ce bought some fireworks and walked over to Chen Duo and asked, "Do you want to set them off together?"
Chen Duo asked, "Are these fireworks? I've only seen them online, and never seen them in person, let alone lit them. Do they look good? Do they look scary when lit?"
Gongsun Ce thought for a moment and said, "You need to experience it yourself."
After saying that, Gongsun Ce gave her a lighter and stuffed all the fireworks into her arms.
Gongsun Ce said to her, "It's up to you. Which one do you want to set off? But remember, don't set them off at the same time, otherwise it will make a lot of noise."
Chen Duo nodded as if she understood, then took out one of the fireworks and placed it on the construction site. After lighting the firework, she ran back a few steps and waited for the fuse to be lit before the firework began to set off.
A bunch of fireworks whooshed into the sky, bursting into a sea of fire and silver flowers.
"Bang bang bang..."
Immediately afterwards, fireworks bloomed in the night sky, instantly decorating the entire sky with colorful lights.
Many people stopped to watch the magnificent fireworks display, and many joined in to buy fireworks and start setting them off.
There was a bunch of fireworks, which first looked like a blooming lotus, layer upon layer, and then suddenly exploded into countless small points of light. They danced and rotated in the air, like stars in the sky.
Under the fireworks, laughter and joy rose and fell among the crowd, and everyone looked up, appreciating this visual feast.
Chen Duo looked at the warm scene in front of her, gently closed her eyes, felt the gentle breeze of the night, and felt the laughter coming from her ears.
The night sky after the fireworks are set off is like a colorful painting.
Chen Duo suddenly remembered the cave where the Medicine Fairy Society was located. It was dark and damp, with only darkness except for death.
She suddenly didn't want to go back to the past, but of course this feeling only lasted for a moment.
But it was this fleeting feeling that made Chen Duo start to struggle. She suddenly wanted to continue living and try to reach a reconciliation with the world.
Gongsun Ce approached Chen Duo. Chen Duo's eyes were still closed at this time. It was unknown what he was thinking about, or whether he was making a wish with the help of the fireworks.
Gongsun Ce raised his hand and gently tapped Chen Duo's eyelids. Chen Duo suddenly felt her tears flowing uncontrollably.
This was because Gongsun Ce gently stimulated her tear glands, and this slight stimulation caused Chen Duo's tears to flow uncontrollably.
Chen Duo looked at the fireworks in the sky with tears in her eyes, and suddenly she wanted to beat Gongsun Ce up.
Gongsun Ce said softly: "I think you may need a cry, a heart-wrenching cry, a cry that can make you forget everything. When this cry is over, you will feel that the world will be very beautiful. Cry."
After Gongsun Ce finished speaking, Chen Duo could no longer control her tear glands, and her tears began to fly like they were free.
At this moment, her previous experiences kept flashing through her mind like a revolving lantern.
And these memories made her tears even more uncontrollable.
She was a little confused. She had clearly learned what kind of emotions a normal person should have and how they should respond when faced with different things.
But now she just wanted to cry, and she was becoming increasingly unclear about why she was crying and why she was sad.
She only knew that what Gongsun Ce had just said was the truth. She didn't have to think about anything, didn't have to do anything. She just had to cry, cry until her heart was broken, cry until she couldn't remember anything, cry until she passed out.
Just after Chen Duo cried for a while, she lost all the strength to support herself.
She cried for so long that she fainted and fell limply into Gongsun Ce's arms.
Gongsun Ce smiled and wiped away the tears from her eyes, temporarily sealing her tear glands so that she would not cry anymore. "There are always times when people cannot control their emotions." Gongsun Ce said softly.
Gongsun Ce knew that Chen Duo’s inner demons had not been removed yet. If the dosage of the medicine was not increased, she would still want to die, even if she had become a normal person.
After the fireworks are over, most of the tourists are going home.
At this moment, Fu Rong and Er Zhuang, who had been looking for Chen Duo and Gongsun Ce for a while, found Gongsun Ce who was holding Chen Duo in a princess hug.
The two of them walked to Gongsun Ce in surprise and looked at Chen Duo, who still had tears in the corners of her eyes.
Er Zhuang asked, "What did you do to her? How did she fall asleep while crying?"
Gongsun Ce smiled and said, "You guessed, but even if you guessed correctly, there would be no reward."
Gongsun Ce ignored the strange looks from Fu Rong and Er Zhuang, and walked slowly towards Biyou Village while holding Chen Duo.
Even though it was getting late, he still wanted to take Chen Duo back to Biyou Village temporarily.
Time passed quickly, and soon it was time for temporary workers in Nadutong to gather. Erzhuang had already set up a group chat for temporary workers online and started providing information.
Er Zhuang's move can be regarded as Infernal Affairs. He clearly wanted to help Chen Duo, but he also had to provide accurate information.
Compared with Er Zhuang's inner drama, Gongsun Ce had a headache.
It was the first time that Gongsun Ce met someone with such heavy inner demons.
Originally, he wanted to help Chen Duo resolve her inner demons through external influence, but he didn't expect that Chen Duo was still trapped by her inner demons and couldn't resolve them at all.
But Chen Duo was already able to act as if she didn't care about these things. She spent some time happily and tried many things she had never tried before.
Chen Duo seemed to be a lot more cheerful and could even tell a few jokes occasionally.
The reason why it was a cold joke was that when Chen Duo told the joke, her face was unusually calm, which made what she said not like a joke but more like a cold joke.
On this day, Gongsun Ce originally wanted to take Chen Duo to experience bungee jumping, a more exciting activity.
But Ma Xianhong found Chen Duo, handed a swallowing capsule to Chen Duo, and said: "I have a task here, I want to give it to you. Of course, it is up to you to decide whether to do it or not."
Chen Duo thought about it and accepted Ma Xianhong's invitation to do the task.
Chen Duo said: "I am willing to do this mission, but can I choose who will go with me?"
Ma Xianhong nodded and said, "Okay, you can choose anyone you want to go on the mission with you."
Then Gongsun Ce, Fu Rong and Er Zhuang were invited by Chen Duo to go out on a mission.
After Gongsun Ce knew that Chen Duo wanted to kidnap Mei Jinfeng, his expression was a little strange.
Because if nothing unexpected happens, they will definitely encounter that group of temporary workers, and Er Zhuang will be in a bit of a dilemma.
As Gongsun Ce expected, Er Zhuang agreed and went together to complete the mission.
However, Erzhuang didn’t know the task she was going to do at this time, and was destined to meet other temporary workers.
As night fell, Chen Duo learned Mei Jinfeng's address from Wan Liangcai, the owner of a mutton noodle shop, and delivered the mutton noodle soup to Mei Jinfeng's address.
Er Zhuang also delayed sending their locations in the temporary workers group chat.
After all, the Gao family has joined Nadutong, so Erzhuang can only passively resist and cannot start directly.
At this time, Xia Liuqing was having countless awkward conversations with Mei Jinfeng.
Mei Jinfeng used her power to steadily drive Xia Liuqing out of the room. Just when Xia Liuqing was about to knock on the door and continue chatting with Mei Jinfeng.
He noticed someone approaching from behind, turned around and saw Chen Duo.
He was just about to comment on Chen Duo when he saw Er Zhuang and Gongsun Ce.
Xia Liuqing suddenly felt a chill on his back, and his hair stood on end. He shouted to Mei Jinfeng, "Jinfeng, run! There's someone here, I'm no match for him!"
When Mei Jinfeng heard what Xia Liuqing said, her first thought was that this was Xia Liuqing's trick to trick her into opening the door.
Mei Jinfeng then confirmed that Xia Liuqing would not play such a joke on her. When Mei Jinfeng opened the door, she saw the four-person group of Chen Duo, Er Zhuang, Gongsun Ce and Fu Rong.
Mei Jinfeng, who had experienced a lot of things, saw Chen Duo at first sight.
Then he looked at Er Zhuang, Fu Rong and Gongsun Ce in succession.
She immediately confirmed in her heart that Gongsun Ce was the person Xia Liuqing mentioned, and that he was no match for him.
Mei Jinfeng could feel that Gongsun Ce had a temperament similar to Wu Gensheng, a temperament that did not belong to this world.
Mei Jinfeng said, "I don't know why you young people would come to me, a wife who has lived in seclusion for so many years, but what I want to say is that I definitely don't have what you want, so go back."
Chen Duo looked at Mei Jinfeng seriously, and then said, "I'm not here to find you to learn something. I'm here because someone wants me to invite you over."
Hearing this, Xia Liuqing flew into a rage and said, "Little girl, don't think that just because I'm old you can talk nonsense here. The Golden Phoenix is mine! No one of you can take it away!"
Xia Liuqing raised his hand and used the Lingxu Finger to hit Chen Duo in order to test Chen Duo's strength.
However, at this moment, Fu Rong, who had been silent all the time, drew the knife from his waist and struck towards Xia Liuqing with the knife energy.
Xia Liuqing's Lingxu finger force was completely broken by Fu Rong's sword energy.
Afterwards, Fu Rong swung a few more sword energies at Xia Liuqing. Seeing the overwhelming sword energies, Xia Liuqing took several steps back.
Xia Liuqing said to Fu Rong: "Little girl, you are quite good at swordsmanship at such a young age, but why are you using a knife?"
Obviously, Xia Liuqing also felt that Fu Rong's move was clearly following the path of the Sichuan Sword Immortal.
The problem is that the opponent was clearly swinging out sword energy, but the carrier he used was a kitchen knife.
After hearing Xia Liuqing's question, Fu Rong felt as if she had been poked in a sore spot. It's not that she didn't want to use the sword, but it was obvious that she couldn't afford a good sword, okay?
The only bladed object she could easily buy was a kitchen knife.
She also wanted to use a good sword if possible.
She could even ask Ma Xianhong to make a sword for her.
But to be honest, a kitchen knife can be bought anywhere, but a sword is not easy to carry. In addition, she is heavily in debt and has never used a good sword before, so the kitchen knife is the weapon she is most used to.
