The Billionaire's Priceless Darling: 33 Days of the CEO's Pursuit - Chapter 71 - She Seems... Less Disgusted by Him

“You came here to set off fireworks?” Li Juefeng finally looked at the bag of fireworks on the ground, his expression clearly saying, “Gu Xiaoai, are you out of your mind?”

…

If she really came here just to set off fireworks, she would think she was crazy.

“I went to kindergarten here,” Gu Xiaoai said, running her fingers through her long hair. She bent down to pick up the fireworks and looked up at Li Juefeng. “Do you have a lighter?”

This girl was actually planning to set off fireworks here?

Li Juefeng went back to the car and handed her a lighter. Gu Xiaoai took the box of fireworks and walked a few steps away. She lit them…

“Bang-”

Beautiful fireworks shot up into the night sky, bursting into brilliant colors and leaving trails of smoke.

Gu Xiaoai stepped back a few paces, leaning against the car with Li Juefeng as they watched the fireworks rise, bloom, and finally fade into the night…

The night wind grew colder. Gu Xiaoai quietly watched the fireworks, flickering in the sky.

It was Chu Shixiu’s birthday, and here she was, watching fireworks with Li Juefeng. What did this mean?

“I still have some Fairy Wands,” Gu Xiaoai said, squatting down to light a few. She forced a smile and handed one to Li Juefeng. “Want to play?”

Li Juefeng stared at her intently, hesitating for a moment before taking two Fairy Wands. The sparks crackled, reflecting on her small face.

Her eyes, red from crying, formed a sad curve as she smiled, which didn’t look good at all. Why was she crying again?

She turned around, writing something in the air with the Fairy Wand. The smoke trails slowly dispersed. Li Juefeng frowned. “What are you writing?”

Happy Birthday.

Gu Xiaoai turned back and smiled at him. “I’m writing ‘Thank you.'”

Even though she hated Li Juefeng, she felt inexplicably touched when he showed up at the kindergarten.

Maybe it was because she hadn’t been cared for in a long time?

She seemed… less disgusted by him.

“Really?” Li Juefeng responded with obvious disbelief, but a small smile tugged at the corner of his lips.

Thank you.

Hearing those words from the Young Lady who once used a tissue to wipe her hands after giving him charity felt surprisingly good.

“Uh…” Gu Xiaoai couldn’t think of anything to explain further. The spark of the Fairy Wand in her hand died out, and the fireworks were spent. Darkness enveloped them once again.

Li Juefeng continued to look down at her, his gaze deep and intense.

It made her feel very uncomfortable.
