The aroma of wine wafted along the wind.

Near Tianheng Mountain, in the Tongque Temple, a young man clasped his hands together and devoutly worshipped the bronze sparrow.

"I will come again next year."

After paying his respects to the Bronze Sparrow, the young man walked out of the Bronze Sparrow Temple with a smile.

After he left the Bronze Sparrow Temple, the purple smoke from the three incense sticks burning in the incense burner on the table rippled slightly.

Wangshu Inn.

Fireworks continued to rise into the sky.

Customers downstairs at Wangshu Inn stopped eating and turned their attention to the fireworks soaring into the sky in the distance.

The rooftop of Wangshu Inn, on the open-air platform.

The people at Wangshu Inn gathered around a table.

The boss is Phil Gaudette, the manager is Huai'an, and Jiang Xue is taken in.

The table was covered with dishes.

The chef, Yanxiao, served another dish.

"It's a holiday, so let's have a good meal, hahaha."

Yan Xiao said with a smile.

Everyone picked up their chopsticks and started picking up food.

"Really delicious."

Jiang Xue exclaimed in admiration.

"By the way, I recently heard from a customer that there's a guy named Fang Qiu who's really good at writing books. Jiang Xue, don't go fishing tomorrow. You've got nothing else to do anyway. Go to Liyue Harbor tomorrow and buy me a copy."

He said with a smile.

"Alright, considering how good this meal is, I'll make the trip for you tomorrow."

Jiang Xue laughed and said.

"Speaking of which, I've heard about this too. Buy one for me as well."

"That's what the shopkeeper from Huai'an said."

"Boss, would you like to buy one too?"

Jiang Xue looked at Philgoldette and asked.

"Hearing you say that, I also want to see what Fang Qiu is capable of. I'll try my hand at it too."

Phil Gaudette said, "Let's just buy a few more sets and see if the person upstairs likes them."

"Okay, I'll buy ten sets tomorrow."

Jiang Xue said, "It's perfect timing, I can also read a book."

Philgoldette picked up a piece of meat, put it in her mouth, chewed it twice, and said:

"Mmm, it tastes really good. Yanxiao's cooking skills have improved again."

"Thank you for the compliment, boss."

Yan Xiao touched her head sheepishly.

Watching them chat and laugh, Xiao, sitting on the rooftop, smiled faintly, withdrew his gaze, and looked at the fireworks blooming in the sky, colorful fireworks bursting forth.

Qingce Village.

The elderly, along with the children, lit the fireworks on the ground. With a "whoosh," the flames shot into the air and bloomed.

The children's faces lit up with smiles, and laughter filled the air.

Qiqi and Baishu were climbing the steps.

"One two seven seven, two two seven seven."

Qiqi kept hopping on one foot on the steps, switching feet after each hop.

"Heave-ho."

After finally landing firmly on both feet, Qiqi turned around and looked at Bai Shu, who was looking at her with doting eyes.

Bai Shu smiled faintly and walked with Qi Qi toward an old lady.

"Dr. Bai, thank you for making house calls again this year."

The old lady said with a smile.

"You're too kind."

Bai Shu smiled and said.

Standing beside Bai Shu, Qi Qi watched the fireworks fill the sky and murmured, "The Lantern Festival... I want to watch the fireworks with... Fang Qiu."

"Fang Qiu?"

Bai Shu was slightly taken aback, then smiled and said, "Is it the white-haired girl who often comes to visit you?"

"Mmm, Fang Qiu's... coconut milk... is delicious... and it's so refreshing."

"Qiqi said."

"I see."

Bai Shu smiled and said, "Once I'm done with this, I'll take you back to Liyue Harbor to visit her."

"Yes, thank you... Mr. Bai."

Qiqi nodded.

She looked up at the sky, her eyes filled with anticipation.

Near Yujingtai.

Grandma Ping and Yan Fei sat at the tea table, watching the fireworks fill the sky, their eyes filled with joy.

"It's another Lantern Festival. Although I've seen this scene for countless years, it always feels especially warm and familiar every time I see it."

Grandma Ping said.

"Yes."

Yan Fei nodded.

At this moment, in the Qunyu Pavilion.

Keqing, dressed in exotic attire, stood side by side with Ying on the deck, while Paimon floated beside Ying.

They gazed intently at the fireworks display before them.

"so beautiful."

Paimon said with a look of delight.

"Yes."

Ying nodded.

Happy Lantern Festival, travelers.

Keqing tossed her hair and said.

Happy Lantern Festival!

Ying and Paimon spoke together.

Behind them, Ningguang, also dressed in exotic clothing, leaned against a pillar, holding a pipe and taking a light puff.

"What are you wearing?"

Beidou glanced at Ningguang and asked, "It's very trendy."

Ningguang smiled faintly, her beautiful eyes opening and closing, and said, "To be praised by the knowledgeable Captain Beidou, this outfit is quite impressive."

Unusually, Beidou didn't argue with her; instead, they looked up at the sky together as fireworks bloomed.

As the fireworks lit up the sky, they walked over to Keqing, Ying, and Paimon, and couldn't help but smile as they watched the fireworks fill the air.

Scarlet Cloud Slope.

Upstairs at Heyu Teahouse, people were drinking tea.

Yun Jin and Xin Yan lay on the outdoor tea table, watching the fireworks explode in the sky.

"Xin Yan, thank you for practicing with me today."

Yun Jin said with a smile.

"No need to thank me, it's nothing."

Xin Yan waved his hand and said.

"Can you come see this show tomorrow night?"

Yun Jin asked.

"No problem."

Xin Yan said with a smile, "I will invite Sister Beidou, Wan Ye and the others to come together."

"Ah."

Yun Jin nodded.

"Speaking of which, I wonder if Brother Wanye and the others watched the fireworks."

As he spoke, Xin Yan looked at the Death Star docked at the pier.

On the Death Star.

The married sailors have gone home to celebrate the Lantern Festival. Several sailors are sitting on the deck, eating and drinking well, having a great time.

"Old Liu, another lamb chop, please. Your lamb chops are really good, they're almost as good as Sister Xiangling's."

After finishing his sentence, a young man with a full beard picked up his wine glass, looked up at the sky with melancholy, and said, "On this Lantern Festival, only good food and wine can soothe the pain in my lonely heart."
