Elizabeth thought for a moment and replied seriously, "Nothing. It's enough."
"No!" James shook his head gently, "I think it's still not enough. What do you think?"
"What do you mean?"
James smiled at Elizabeth and then asked softly, "Do you want to see fireworks, Mrs. Lu?"
"Fireworks?" Elizabeth looked around and said, "Even if I want to see it, you don't have it now, right?"
James did not say anything, but turned around. Looking at the direction of the sea, he lifted his hand up again.
Two seconds later, he took back his hand. And he flicked out the unfinished cigarette in his hand.
The cigarette flew out in the shape of a parabola, which was neither too big nor too small. Because of the breeze, the red dot on the cigarette became brighter and brighter. When it reached the highest point, it quickly fell down and finally fell on a certain place of sand.
"Didn't you say that you want to smoke?"
"Well, I don't want it now." James said, pulling Elizabeth's arm and pulling her closer to him. Then he held Elizabeth's hand, "Now, be silence..."
"Then we..."
"Baby, listen to me, okay? Don't talk yet. Just look ahead."
As soon as James finished speaking, something sprang up in front of him. When it reached a certain height, it made a loud noise. Then Elizabeth saw a beautiful silver firework bloom in the sky, then a second, then a third... Finally, almost a long row of fireworks were ignited, crackling and blooming with their beauty.
At first, Elizabeth was shocked by the sudden loud noise, and then she froze there.
Elizabeth stared blankly at the ever- blooming fireworks. After a brief blank in her mind, she felt touched by the surprise James brought to her, that she wanted to cry out.
James had just proposed a walk together. He asked her if she wanted to watch the fireworks. He lit the cigarette but only took a puff...
It turned out that these was a "surprise" that James had prepared in advance.
The sea was dark and there were only not-so-bright lights behind them. But where they were now was as bright as day, like a fairy tale world full of romance.
Elizabeth's heart was warm and full of joy. She couldn't help but turn around and kiss the man in front of her with her toes on her feet.
"Thank you..." Thank you, James, for giving me a world of fireworks.
James was stunned by her initiative, and then he took the initiative to put his arms around her waist and hug her back. After a long time, James let go of Elizabeth. He smiled and reached out his hand to wipe the water on her lips, and then said softly, "Then let's... go back? You haven't given me the gift you prepared, Mrs. Lu."
Elizabeth smiled shyly at the heat of his eyes. She nodded and replied, "Well, I'll give it to you when we go back."
James carried her all the way back.
The gentle sea breeze was very comfortable, and James's back was warm and wide. On his back, Elizabeth two calves swung as he walked.
"Do you like it?"
Elizabeth looked back at the blooming silver fireworks. Then she turned around, and looked at James's back head, "I like it." After that, she thought for a while and added, "I like everything tonight."
How could she not like it?
James had thought about it when he booked the house earlier. Although the house was huge, there was only one bedroom here. They would definitely sleep together. If he wanted to do something, Elizabeth didn't have a chance to say no.
Although he was tired on the night of Lu Mansion, he didn't sleep before she came out from the bath. It wasn't like he couldn't do anything to Elizabeth in the few hours they had slept together today. But when he thought of the surprise he wanted to give her at night, he endured the two times.
Anyway, they had all come here. The best thing should happen at the best time. That would be better.
The water in the bathroom kept crashing, and James's throat rolled a few times. He took a deep breath and resisted the impulse to rush in.
He lit a cigarette for himself in order to calm down. Moreover, he had wanted to smoke for a long time. To play it cool and light the firework, he just took a puff of that cigarette on the beach earlier.
He took a few puffs of cigarettes and looked in the direction of the bathroom. His deep eyes narrowed slightly. Tonight...
Elizabeth, who was in the bathroom, took a shower and found that she had not taken the changing clothes in just now. She patted her head in annoyance. She was immersed in the emotions and happiness just now and completely forgot this.
How could she get out now?
There was towels in the bathroom. But if she really wrapped herself in the towel and went out, she would feel embarrassed. If that was the case, would James think that she was being too open and trying to seduce him?
After thinking about it, she had to turn to James, who was outside the door, for help in the end.
"James... Can you help me take my pajamas?" Elizabeth slightly opened the door and hid behind the door. Her face was slightly flushed because of embarrassment.
But she didn't get his response, and the room was quiet.
She waited for a moment, then opened the door a little. She hid her body behind the door, and leaned her head out, "James?"
