As dusk slowly fell, the streets were already brimming with crowds. A sea of heads bustled about, all waiting for the fireworks display to begin.
Pei Qin was startled to see the crowd, "I've gathered so many people!?"
Xiao Yong came over with a smile, "Sister Qin! When you said you would set off fireworks, those young girls came early to wait, and the common folk also wanted to see. The children came even earlier."
Pei Qin saw the fireworks had been moved out, went up to the high platform to check them again, and after confirming there were no problems, she bowed to the young girls below, "This fireworks display is my gift to all of you ladies for your deep affection. It's not just an apology, but also a blessing from me, Pei Qin, to all of you! May each of you find that special someone and have a place to call your very own."
"General Pei! General Pei!"
Someone started crying below again.
