Chapter 1338: Re Ba: Sorry, I Got It Wet QAQ!

~3 min read 527 words

Outside the quiet suburbs beneath Xiayue Mountain.

Qin Feng and Re Ba's RV was parked beneath the starry sky.

Even the sounds captured by the live stream.

Seemed to include faint chirps of cicadas and croaks of frogs.

Fireworks rising from distant villages.

Made the star-strewn sky flicker dimly and brightly.

Waves of light from bursting fireworks.

Lit up the sides of Qin Feng and Re Ba's faces.

Amid the faint interlude.

Those fireworks blooming in the night sky.

Seemed reflected as countless blossoms in the tearlight glistening at Re Ba's corner of her eye. At least for now.

Re Ba felt.

Though life held too many, too many regrets.

For herself,

She seemed doted upon by heaven's favor.

From meeting Qin Feng to knowing him.

From knowing him to loving him.

Along the way, flowers bloomed.

She had never encountered major upheavals.

At least in Re Ba's view.

To spend her life beside this man.

Must mean she truly defeated the Trisolarans in a past life QAQ! Precisely because of this,

Re Ba could better understand.

Mo Wu's earlier words: cherish those before you.

Only after seeing imperfection

Can one truly cherish wholeness.

After another interlude,

Qin Feng sang the second verse of "The Fading Fireworks":

"Listen to youth, welcomed by laughter, envied by many—"

"The annals, tender, refused to write, too cruel…"

"Fireworks fade easily."

"Human ties part easily."

"And you ask, do I still take it seriously?"

"A thousand years later, after countless lifetimes, who still waits?"

"And history, how could it not be true—the Wei annals of Luoyang City?"

"As if you followed, entering my door in a past life—"

"Following the dust, wandering with me through this life…"

Re Ba listened intently to every line Qin Feng sang. What she saw and heard differed naturally from what the live stream viewers saw and heard. Though Re Ba had never read the book "Luoyang Jia Lan Ji," the content appearing in the latter half of the lyrics

Made her feel.

That the book's contents must be extraordinary.

At this moment,

A thought arose in her heart.

If she ever got the chance,

She must one day travel to Luoyang with Qin Feng.

Though the idea seemed inexplicable,

Life is like this.

Some thoughts suddenly spring up, then drive one to rush and fulfill them.

Amid Re Ba's daydreaming,

Qin Feng finished singing the final chorus of "The Fading Fireworks."

And Re Ba could now awkwardly sing along.

She murmured only the melody, familiar.

But the lines:

"Rain falls thickly, the old hometown's grass and trees grow deep."

"I hear you've always been alone."

Not just Re Ba.

Even the million viewers in the live stream.

Had already been swept up by this popular melody.

Could hum along easily.

"The weathered city gate, coiled with ancient tree roots…"

"On the stone slabs echoes the waiting—"

"Rain falls in a flurry, the old hometown..."

"Listening to the rain in Gama Temple, hoping for eternity--" until the very last line of the song.

Reba's thoughts finally returned to reality from her wild imaginings. And when the song ended.

Qin Feng discovered something utterly speechless~ That was...
