At 9:05 pm, Lin Qingzhu and Xu Ming'er walked out of school on time.
As soon as they left the school gate, the two girls saw Ye Nan waiting at the school gate.
"Where did you go at night? Ah Qiu..." Lin Qingzhu jumped over and ran over with a smile on her face, but as soon as she reached Ye Nan, she covered her mouth and sneezed.
"The clothes are not zipped properly, and you still have a cold." Ye Nan gave her a complaining look and helped her to zip up her school uniform. "I have something to do at home tonight, and I asked for leave from the teacher."
"It's okay, I'm not cold." Lin Qingzhu looked at Ye Nan with a smile, feeling warm in her heart. Many times, you can only tell whether a man really cares about you through the details. Ye Nan's eyes revealed unintentionally
Lin Qingzhu's concern was all seen.
"Have you bought the medicine I asked you to buy for Qingzhu?" Xu Ming'er walked over with a hint of worry in her tone, "Just drinking cold granules may not be of any use."
"I bought it. It's all in the car. Don't stand here. Get in the car."
The three of them walked towards the parking lot.
"Why are you driving home again today?" Lin Qingzhu wondered, "Isn't Lu Haichao's matter settled?"
"It has nothing to do with Lu Haichao. If you don't want to go home yet, I will take you somewhere." Ye Nan opened the car door and the two girls got into the back seat.
"Where are you going? Is it related to the gift given to us?" Lin Qingzhu's eyes were bright and she asked expectantly.
"You'll know when you get there." Ye Nan chuckled, started the car and hit the road.
…
The pitch-black Hongqi E-HS22 is speeding through Zhonghai at night. Its streamlined body shines with a mysterious black and gold color, blending in with the unique night view of Zhonghai.
The night in Zhonghai is more charming than during the day. The lights in Zhonghai at night are twinkling and the colorful neon lights are brilliant, reflecting the entire sky into a hazy orange color, just like a city that never sleeps. Many people regard Zhonghai as a city that never sleeps.
This is where the name "Magic City" comes from.
"During evening self-study, Sun Yu from our class gave Li Xiaoning apples, but was caught by the director of the Moral Education Department. The two were taken to the Moral Education Department for education all night. They still didn't come back when school was over. The big bald man found out about it.
From now on, I will come to class and ask everyone to hand in all the apples."
Lin Qingzhu sat in the car and told Ye Nan and Xu Ming'er what happened during the evening self-study.
"Zhang Li is crazy. He is still catching puppy love. The way he is catching them, No. 3 Middle School could just build a wall and throw the boys and girls to both sides of the wall."
Ye Nan was quite resentful. Zhang Li seemed to be going crazy during this period, arresting people everywhere. In order to avoid being caught, Ye Nan had not had dinner with Lin Qingzhu and Xu Ming'er at school for several days.
The school is under semi-closed management, and you can't go out of school during dinner time, so even if Ye Nan wants to take the two girls out to eat, she can't.
"Zhang Li's arrest of premature love is understandable, but why did your class teacher confiscate the apple?" Xu Ming'er was a little confused.
"Maybe I'm afraid that everyone will cause trouble if they continue to send apples..." Lin Qingzhu said uncertainly.
"How can he be so kind?" Ye Nan sneered, "I'm sure he's just using Zhang Li to take advantage of the situation. The key is that no one dares to resist him. After confiscating so many apples... you're not afraid of eating him to death?"
"Don't always arrange the teacher behind your back..." Xu Ming'er couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Do you think everyone is the bully of the school like you? You dare to disobey the teacher in high school, but you can bully your classmates in low school."
"What little bully? Is someone talking bad about me to you behind my back?" Ye Nan suddenly became alert.
"Are you afraid that others will say bad things about you?" Xu Ming'er said with a smile, "I don't know how you made Lu Haichao be honest last time. This time, please don't fight again and act nonsense all day long, which will not make people worry.
.”
"What happened to Lu Haichao last time had nothing to do with me. It was because he took the wrong path and got into trouble with someone. Then of course he was too busy taking care of himself that he had no time to talk to me." Ye Nan explained casually.
"Then why did he go astray when he was so good? You must have caused trouble..." Lin Qingzhu blinked, and when his eyes met Xu Ming'er's, he immediately saw the color of approval in the other's eyes.
"So Qingzhu, you have to work with me to control him. You can't let him continue to mess around in school. He has already caused too many things."
Lin Qingzhu nodded vigorously. She quite agreed with Xu Ming'er's words. Ye Nan had indeed been too dishonest recently, and there were constant negative news. They were even worried that Ye Nan might not be able to graduate normally if she continued like this.
"Forget it, even if you don't tell me, I know it's Liu Shan. No one in the class dares to say bad things about me except him." Ye Nan said without looking back.
"You're not putting a surveillance camera on me, are you?" Xu Ming'er was shocked, "Stop bullying your classmates!"
"When have I ever bullied my classmates?" Ye Nan shouted, "I like to reason with others. I try to reason with others every time, but they just don't want to."
"Tch..." Lin Qingzhu and Xu Ming'er said with disdain at the same time.
Not long after, Ye Nan stopped the car, and the two girls got out of the car, looking around curiously.
Woo... A steamboat made a low cry on the river. The river flowed quietly. The lights on the river beach were twinkling and the crowds were bustling. Many people were walking along the river beach with their families.
"Why did you bring us to the river beach?" Xu Ming'er asked in surprise.
"Is our gift related to the river beach?"
Lin Qingzhu looked curiously at a stall selling helicopter toys on the edge of the river beach. The stall owner was holding a colorful dazzling mini helicopter in his hand, pointed it at the sky and gently tossed it. At the same time, he turned on the switch, and the helicopter suddenly took off into the air.
A group of little kids came around and watched in shock.
"Bingo, I only guessed half of it right," Ye Nan opened the trunk of the car, took out a box from inside, placed it on the ground and opened it.
The two girls came over curiously and saw Ye Nan taking out a bunch of things from the box and playing with them on the ground.
Three times five divided by two, three exquisite Kongming lanterns appeared in front of the three people.
"Wow! Kongming lanterns!" Lin Qingzhu exclaimed excitedly, "I have long wanted to set off the Kongming lanterns, but it has been banned on the river beach for a long time."
"Things like Kongming lanterns are meaningless if they are not placed on the river beach." Ye Nan took out three pieces of paper and three markers from his pocket like magic, and handed them to the two girls respectively.
"Kongming lanterns are also called wishing lanterns. We each write our wishes on paper, then put them in the Kongming lanterns and send our wishes into the sky, okay?"
"Okay, okay..." Xu Ming'er also expressed her eagerness to give it a try. She had never let go of the Kongming lanterns in her previous life, "But it is strictly forbidden to set off the Kongming lanterns on the river beach. If we do this, will it..."
"Don't worry, since I dare to bring you here, I must be fully prepared." Ye Nan said firmly, "You just have to be bold and confident, and don't think about anything else."
Now that Ye Nan said this, the two girls no longer worried. After thinking about it for a while, they each turned their backs and wrote down their wishes and blessings on their own notes.
Ye Nan smiled slightly when he saw this, and wrote two sentences on his own note, then folded the note and stuffed it into the Kongming Lantern.
"Is it really okay if we put up the Kongming lanterns?" Lin Qingzhu whispered, "I heard that someone was caught putting up the Kongming lanterns on the river beach last year..."
"Trust me," Ye Nan took out three lighters and handed two to Lin Qingzhu and Xu Ming'er, "Wait a minute and I'll count one, two, three, and we'll light up the Kongming Lantern together, okay?"
"Okay..." The two girls no longer hesitated, and together they put the lighter to the ignition point of the Kongming Lantern.
Ye Nan smiled slightly, put her left hand behind her back, quietly took out a remote control, and said softly, "One, two, three, ignite!"
As Ye Nan finished speaking, Lin Qingzhu and Xu Ming'er lit their Kongming lanterns at the same time. The Kongming lanterns immediately lit up orange and began to move slowly.
At the same time, Ye Nan gently pressed the switch of the remote control in his hand.
"Chi..."
A burst of flames sounded around, and the entire square slowly lit up. Smaller orange-red Kongming lanterns slowly came out from nowhere, and followed the big Kongming lanterns released by Ye Nan and the others one after another.
, slowly flying towards the sky.
"Wow!!! So beautiful!!!" Lin Qingzhu and Xu Ming'er's eyes were as bright as stars, and the orange-red stars in their eyes turned slightly, staring intently at the lamps in the sky.
The blue sky on the river beach suddenly seemed to be hung with countless beautiful lanterns, and it seemed like stars were all over the sky, fluttering and flickering. The entire sky was dyed with a layer of warm orange, making December feel slightly cooler.
There was a hint of warmth in the sea.
Countless people looked up to the sky, their eyes moving along with the orange-red Kongming Lanterns. There were Kongming Lanterns everywhere, as if countless people were releasing them at the same time.
Several river beach management personnel wearing police badges looked at the sky dumbfounded, unable to find where these sky lanterns came from or who released them.
"Happy Christmas Eve, my girls." Ye Nan also looked up at the starry sky and murmured.
