Tonight, Yancheng was different. Even though the clock had quietly passed midnight, the streets were still dotted with lingering lights and filled with a constant stream of pedestrians, as if the city was immersed in a sleepless vitality. The deep night could not hide its vibrant energy; a story hid beneath every lamp, and the rhythm of life echoed with every footstep.
Xue Yang and Lin Xi strolled hand in hand down the wide road. Under the soft glow of the streetlights, their figures appeared exceptionally warm and harmonious, drawing glances from passersby who looked on with envy or silent blessings. The perfect pair had become a beautiful part of the nightscape, making people want to steal another look to feel the sweet happiness that radiated from them.
Amidst the lingering aroma of coffee, Si Wen and Sun Yufei finished their pleasant chat, ready to head home and enjoy the tranquility of the night. Just then, a snippet of conversation drifted to their ears.
