When the sky was dark and gloomy, Han Fang came over and called Chen Jiaxian to take a rotation.
"Isn't there still half an hour?" she asked while putting on her coat.
"There will be a fireworks show tonight." Han Fang rolled up the plans on the table in a mess and stuffed them into her bag, lifted her legs and left. "There are more and more tourists and there is a traffic jam. Let's leave early."
Chen Jiaxian picked up the old bag Guan Xi gave her: "Why didn't I know there was a fireworks show?"
Han Fang urged her: "You were too busy a while ago. I ran the application procedures and didn't look for you."
Chen Jiaxian asked while running: "Today is neither a weekend nor a holiday, so what kind of fireworks are being set off?"
Han Fang pointed at himself: "Brother Qiao Mu set the date. I am a laborer. You ask me?"
As soon as Chen Jiaxian sat firmly in Han Fang's car, the car jumped out. Han Fang multitasked: "Buckle your seat belt, open my computer and help me check the backup procedures, help answer the calls from Sister Xi and Brother Qiao Mu, and ask Zhou Yixing to ask her - "
The car came to a sudden stop.
"Grass." Han Fang looked at the dense flow of people in front of him.
Chen Jiaxian and Han Fang struggled to move forward in the crowd, with their red work ID cards hanging conspicuously on their chests. Han Fang couldn't help shouting: "Give way to the staff!"
The phone rang, and Zhou Yixing asked, "How long will it take for you to arrive?"
Chen Jiaxian looked around and said frankly: "I don't know, there are too many people, and I can't even use the shared bicycles."
Zhou Yixing said: "Are you telling me that you are late?"
Chen Jiaxian paused and then remembered that Zhou Yixing was responsible for attendance.
I was caught late for attendance on my birthday, so I donated 50 yuan. What kind of human tragedy is this?
Han Fang's eyes quickly pierced her body, and he shouted into the phone: "We will definitely arrive on time!"
After being squeezed in the crowd for a long time, Han Fang hijacked two bicycles belonging to colleagues who had finished their rotation. The two rode back and forth and finally arrived at the entrance of Changlefang Scenic Area.
A bronze plaque "Let the city leave memories and let people remember nostalgia" has been nailed to the entrance wall, and photos of the leaders' visits have been hung below overnight. Zhou Yixing stood under the photo and waved to the two of them, smiling: "Punch in here, there are still 14 seconds left. Come on! Run!"
The two men leaned the car against a tree and ran away.
After punching in, Han Fang breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm going to the visitor center first, see you later."
He turned and left. Zhou Yixing looked Chen Jiaxian up and down: "Are you wearing this today?"
Chen Jiaxian tugged on the lapel of her black suit: "Staff, how low-key you are."
Zhou Yixing took out a comb from his bag and set up a small mirror: "Your hair is messy, comb it down."
Chen Jiaxian gestured casually: "Are you happy about your vacation?"
Zhou Yixing paused and said in a subtle voice, "I'm more tired than going to work."
She dragged Chen Jiaxian and squeezed in: "Let's go, let's go."
As soon as you enter Changlefang, you will see the Intangible Cultural Heritage Street. Chen Jiaxian noticed that the head of the Intangible Cultural Heritage Festival was covered with thin and dense red silk threads, the embroidery was swaying, and the lanterns were hanging, lighting up the halo in the dark night.
"I'm in charge." Zhou Yixing said calmly, "How is it?"
"It wasn't there yesterday." Chen Jiaxian said, "It's very beautiful!"
Zhou Yixing let out a heavy breath and gritted his teeth: "I pressed Charles's head and revised several versions. I just finalized the final plan the day before yesterday. I spent a whole day of vacation all-in today, and then I had time to arrange it." She pointed out. He raised his head and said, "Look carefully, there are words on it."
As people came and went, Chen Jiaxian stood still and carefully read the words embroidered on the lantern.
"Eternal peace and everlasting joy." She raised her head and read out slowly, "What day is today?"
Zhou Yixing laughed for a long time. A glowing halo shone into her eyes.
She finally said: "Today is your birthday."
Chen Jiaxian said "Ah": "Me?"
Zhou Yixing clasped his hands on his chest and glanced at her with a bit of disgust: "This expression is really stupid."
Chen Jiaxian was speechless. Zhou Yixing cleared his throat and said awkwardly and seriously: "Chen Jiaxian, happy birthday."
“Eternal peace and everlasting joy.”
…
A group of tourists crowded over, blocking Zhou Yixing's face and Chen Jiaxian's sight.
The last bit of afterglow mixed with the faint light fell through the leaves of the banyan tree in small pieces. Chen Jiaxian raised her face, her eye circles were hot, and her face was also hot.
She clenched her hands.
The tourist walked over.
"From now on, we must keep moving forward. Go with the sun, moon, and stars and never look back." Zhou Yixing finished speaking in one breath, then touched his arm and whispered, "I'm so numb."
Chen Jiaxian couldn't open her mouth. She was afraid that she would cry during working hours.
So all she could do was move forward.
Above her head is the high sky.
Under her feet is the land of eternity.
She walked through the neighborhoods of Xiguan.
…
"Chen Jiaxian hasn't come here yet? Why is she so slow?" Pan Qiaomu looked at the time. His face was a little heavy.
The Korean side worked hard to reconcile the conflict between the two: "Sister Jiaxian is on mobile duty and must pay attention to emergencies along the way."
"Brother Qiao Mu, what's she doing here so early? After the fireworks show is over and there are crowds of people, that's when she needs to be busy."
"She doesn't have to watch the show, right? Brother Qiao Mu?"
Pan Qiaomu made a soft "tsk" sound.
The Korean side did not wait until Pan Qiaomu complained about Chen Jiaxian. He raised his eyes and saw Pan Qiaomu tilting his head, staring at the gurgling river in ecstasy.
His profile was hidden in the half-dark light, his expression soft.
I'm a really good assistant with incredible emotional intelligence. Han Fang gave himself a silent thumbs up.
"Limited edition, limited edition!"
Some people hurriedly ran past the river, and Han Fang quickly shouted: "Pay attention to safety! Don't run!"
Those people ignored him and ran away quickly.
Soon, more and more people were running. Pan Qiaomu turned to Han Fang and told Han Fang: "Ask, what is the limited edition."
"Hand-made copper has a special limited edition today! Made by Master Sun himself!"
"I heard that there is no need to distribute the goods, just walk-in and carry them out!"
"Stop talking, hurry up and grab it. Master Sun's works have a premium price. If you buy them, you will make money."
The sounds came and went.
Crowds flocked to Intangible Cultural Heritage Street.
Pan Qiaomu glanced at the time, and his voice was annoyed because of nervousness and anxiety: "What limited editions are being issued? Are limited editions being issued today? I am holding a fireworks show today, competing with me for popularity? Who is in charge of the Intangible Cultural Heritage Street?"
Han Fang checked: "Sister Xi."
…
Chen Jiaxian was serving as a selfie stick for tourists when the crowds of people around her suddenly started running.
Zhou Yixing was a little confused: "What's going on?"
"The handmade copper shop has a limited number of hidden models on sale." The tourist who finished taking a selfie said, "Don't you know? Master Sun said a month ago that the limited edition hidden models will be on sale today."
Chen Jiaxian asked herself, "What is it?"
The tourist put away his mobile phone and shrugged: "I don't know, is it a limited-edition hidden model? It's just a limited-edition mystery - I won't tell you, let's take a step first."
People from all directions are flocking to the hand-made copper shop, and it is obvious that it will be a battlefield for the staff.
Chen Jiaxian and Zhou Yixing walked towards the handmade copper shop while trying to maintain order.
Zhou Yixing looked at Chen Jiaxian's back and murmured: "It's your birthday and you have to work overtime."
She suddenly felt a little uncomfortable for Chen Jiaxian.
There was no family, no lover, and no friends waiting for her to go out and celebrate after get off work. There is only the struggle and endless efforts to stay alive. Weeds grow wildly and wildly in fields, roadsides, and cracks in walls. No one cares.
Zhou Yixing looked at Chen Jiaxian's back and finally decided to break his boundaries.
Of course, just this once.
She rushed forward in three steps and grabbed Chen Jiaxian: "This class B is getting more and more troublesome. Wait for the fireworks show. You can rest and I will support you."
Zhou Yixing is responsible for attendance.
Chen Jiaxian was a little surprised and immediately laughed: "Where is your professional ethics?"
Zhou Yixing gave her a hammer and said, "I'll give you a limited friend experience card. Just tell me whether you want it or not."
Chen Jiaxian grabbed her hand and shook it: "Yes. Why don't you want it?"
Zhou Yixing had a disgusted look on his face and pushed her hand away: "Don't act coquettishly to me. I'm scared."
A burst of cheers came from afar.
Several young people came over holding golden and delicate baubles.
“This little birthday cake is so exquisite.”
"It turns out that hand-made copper can also be used to make such exquisite and cute little ornaments."
"There are two candles on it, 21? How cute. I happen to be 21!"
There was a long queue of people, and everyone bought today's limited edition: a small hand-made copper cake. There are two number candles on the cake, 21. On the cake, "Happy Birthday" and today's date are engraved.
Chen Jiaxian stopped.
She finally saw the hand-made copper shop. Uncle Sun likes red the most, so she saw a big red piece of paper at the door of the store, with the following written on it in marker:
Happy birthday
