Xia Ruoxue’s eyes turned to the screen, where the man and woman in the movie were kissing amidst the falling snow.

“Ye Chen, regardless of my family background and everything I have, I’m just an ordinary girl.”

“I also yearn for love. I also want to watch movies. I also like to eat things from roadside stalls.”

“1 envy Sun Yi. 1 really envy her. Sometimes, I really wish I wasn’t born in the Xia family.”

“Today, 1 suddenly wanted to experience how ordinary girls fall in love. To watch movies, visit the night market, and be in the company of someone 1 like. I want to experience this feeling, even if it’s only for one day.”

“Are you willing to be my boyfriend, even if it’s just for one day?”

Xia Ruoxue’s eyes sparkled. It was unknown if it was tears or the reflection of the movie screen. She felt like this was her last chance to live life on her own terms.

Qin Zhengyang and that peerless expert from the Kunlun Mountains were returning to Jiangnan Province, and her situation would change after that. It was likely that she would not be able to control her own fate.

Therefore, she hoped that she could accomplish what she wanted before it happened, and experience some of the things that other couples did, together with Ye Chen.

On this day, she did not think about anything else. She just wanted to enjoy the present.

“Ye Chen, are you willing?” Xia Ruoxue’s crisp voice rang out again.

Although Ye Chen did not know what had happened, he still nodded.

“Of course.”

Then, she leaned in for a kiss. Other than those coincidences and accidents, this was Xia Ruoxue’s first true kiss.

Of course, those unexpected kisses also belonged to Ye Chen.

However, a couple of awkward coughs were heard behind them, which broke the atmosphere. Xia Ruoxue then blushed and pretended to continue watching the movie.

As for Ye Chen, he glared coldly at the culprit, who turned pale with fright.

After all, how could an ordinary person withstand Ye Chen’s gaze?

Once the movie was over, Ruoxue and Ye Chen went to the night market to watch Jiangnan Province’s Lantern Festival. Then, they rented a boat at Autumn Lake.

The waters of the Autumn Lake were very clear. In the past, when the sky was full of stars, many couples would come here to enjoy the view.

However, due to the fog and the cloudy sky, there were no stars in the sky today, and naturally, there were no other boats on the lake. They were the only ones out here.

Xia Ruoxue stood at the bow of the boat, thinking about something.

“What’s wrong? You don’t like it?” Ye Chen asked.

Xia Ruoxue shook her head, and her eyes were filled with disappointment.

“I read on the Internet that there would be stars reflected on the surface of the lake at night. It seems that 1 am not fortunate enough to see such a scene tonight.”

Ye Chen looked at the sky.

“It’s okay. I’ll come here with you next time.”

“I wonder if there will be a next time…” Xia Ruoxue muttered.

Ye Chen seemed to have sensed Xia Ruoxue’s mood. His eyes narrowed as he thought of something.

“Ruoxue, since you want to see the stars, I’ll bring them to you.”

“What?” Xia Ruoxue was stunned.

Before she could react, Ye Chen took a step forward out of the boat, which made her panic.

However, to her astonishment, she then saw Ye Chen standing quietly on the water. There was not even a single ripple of water.

Xia Ruoxue subconsciously covered her mouth.

She knew that ancient martial arts experts could walk on water, but she had not expected it to be so magical. He did not even move. It was as if the lake itself was under his control.

Ye Chen placed his hands behind his back and took a few steps forward. He was three meters away from Xia Ruoxue.

He closed his eyes and condensed a rune in his hand.

The old man had given this to him back then. It was meant to help him escape danger by running on the surface of the water, but now that he was strong enough to do so without the rune, it naturally became useless.

Ye Chen formed a hand seal with his fingers and the rune burned, and a mysterious formation appeared.

The scene looked quite spectacular.

Ye Chen reached out his hand and said, “Ruoxue, come over here.”

Xia Ruoxue pointed at herself quizzically.

“But 1 don’t know ancient martial arts…”

“It’s okay. Just come. You won’t sink,” Ye Chen said.

Trusting him, she stretched out her foot and stepped on the surface of the water. Initially, she thought that she would sink, but then soon realized that it was like stepping on ice.

However, there was no ice to be seen below her…

“This…”

She could no longer use words to describe the shock in her heart.

The surface of the lake was as smooth as a mirror, reflecting the entire sky. There were no stars, but there was a young man and woman standing on the surface of the lake like immortals.

Ye Chen took a step forward and held Xia Ruoxue’s hand.

“Do you like it?”

Xia Ruoxue nodded and looked at Ye Chen in surprise.

“How did you do it? It’s so magical. Standing in the water and looking at the surface of the lake… 1 will never forget this moment!”

Ye Chen looked at Xia Ruoxue meaningfully and said calmly, “This isn’t memorable enough. Although I don’t know why you’re acting so strange today, none of this matters. If you want to see the stars, I’ll show them to you!”

As soon as Ye Chen finished speaking, ten spirit stones appeared in his hand, which were considered precious treasures. In the Kunlun Mountains, many cultivators would burn stones to release the spiritual energy contained within them to speed up their cultivation.

Ye Chen’s lips curled into a confident smile as he threw the spirit stones into the sky. At the same time, his true qi was channeled into his ten fingers, enveloping his palms in light.

Ten Fingers Burning Heaven!

Ten rays of light shot out and landed on the spirit stones in the sky, causing them to explode.

In an instant, the sky lit up. It was like a dazzling display of fireworks.

All of a sudden, the sky was filled with stars!

The spiritual energy released from the spirit stones even caused the withered vegetation around them to revive!

Furthemore, the fishes were all jumping out of the lake, basking in the surging spiritual energy.

It was a truly mysterious and enchanting scene!

Xia Ruoxue’s body was trembling, and her eyes were filled with tears.

She had thought that the best gift she had received this year was the Tears of Stars!

However, the scene in front of her was completely mind-blowing!

She could hardly believe what she was seeing!
