Chapter 67 The National Best Actor is Bai Yueguang’s stand-in (67) [Additional update on New Year’s Eve]
The Lantern Festival in Yunchuan Town was originally held once a year.
However, due to the continuous loss of young people and how many children and elderly people are left in the town, the Lantern Festival has been changed to once every three years.
I don’t know if it’s because of the change of time, but this year’s Lantern Festival is particularly lively.
Before it gets completely dark, every house has lit up lanterns.
The streets were also crowded with people who came here to see the place. It was bustling with people, brightly lit, and very lively.
Shen Yijia finally managed to squeeze through the crowd and get to Bai Wu's side.
She changed into a golden cheongsam today, which looked particularly bright and charming under the moonlight and lights.
Shen Yijia raised the rabbit lantern in front of Bai Wu: "This is the only lantern left. I don't know if you like it or not."
Bai Wu's eyes lit up.
Rabbit!
The cutest creature in the world.
How could she not like it!
Bai Wu took the rabbit lantern and was about to say something when a scream suddenly came from the crowd:
"Ah ah ah ah, is that Shen Yijia?! Actor Shen also came to Yunchuan to watch the lanterns?!"
Almost instantly, more than a dozen eyes were cast towards him.
Shen Yijia suddenly felt his scalp numb, and without thinking, he took Bai Wu's hand and started running.
He waited until the boiling sound behind him completely disappeared before he stopped.
Bai Wu clutched the rabbit lantern and panted, patting her chest: "Fortunately, I ran fast, otherwise if I were photographed, we wouldn't be able to explain it with our two mouths."
Shen Yijia lowered the brim of his hat: "Don't worry, I'm here and I won't let this happen again."
Bai Wu looked at his firm eyes and her expression changed.
Her lips moved, wanting to say something.
Just at this time, fireworks were lit in the sky, and the sky was filled with flames mixed with the sound of firecrackers, pushing the atmosphere to the climax.
The moment the firelight fell, Shen Yijia finally heard Bai Wu's voice clearly:
"Senior, do you want to set off river lanterns with me?"
Bai Wu's eyes were brighter than ever.
Shen Yijia followed her gaze and saw men and women gathering around a small river and setting off lanterns.
But if they walked over like this, they would definitely cause the same sensation as before.
By then, he probably won't be able to stay in Yunchuan any longer.
Bai Wu saw Shen Yijia's hesitation and lowered her head in frustration: "Senior, it's okay, you can reject me."
The fireworks rose again, but Shen Yijia did not hear the second half of Bai Wu's words clearly.
But he could still clearly see the disappointment in her eyes.
"Bai Wu, me."
Just as Shen Yijia was about to speak, the phone in his pocket vibrated.
He wanted to hang up, but when he saw the contacts on the screen, he had to pick up the phone and apologize to Bai Wu:
"Sorry, Xiaobai, let me answer the phone first and then go with you later, okay?"
Bai Wu nodded slightly, the loneliness on her face still not fading away.
Shen Yijia clenched her fists, turned around and answered the phone, her tone very stiff and indifferent:
"Hey, Dad"
Almost the moment he turned around, Bai Wu, who was facing the light, curled her lips and looked at Shen Yijia with a particularly intriguing look:
Shen Yijia, you were the first to refuse this time, so don’t blame me.
-
As time went by, Shen Yijia's expression became more and more impatient.
He reached out and pinched his eyebrows, and finally couldn't help but said:
"Dad, I already told you that I'm not in the imperial capital. You can handle this matter yourself. I have something else to do, so I'll hang up first."
After saying that, he hung up the phone regardless of his father's objections.
He turned around anxiously, but Bai Wu did not stand where she was.
Shen Yijia suddenly panicked and looked around but still didn't see that familiar figure.
Suddenly his cell phone rang, and Shen Yijia quickly opened it. It was a text message sent to him by Bai Wu:
[Sorry, senior, I have some things to deal with, so I will go back first. 】
