The night grew deeper, and the lights of Bazhong City became even more dazzling.
Walking along the old streets paved with bluestone, the neon lights of modern shops intertwined with the contour lights of ancient buildings, and the scent of street food stalls lingered in the night breeze.
The aroma of grilled skewers, the sour and spicy cool noodles, and the sweet and glutinous brown sugar sticky rice balls drew Dou Dou to stop frequently, her little nose sniffing constantly.
"Potato, I want to eat that!"
Dou Dou pointed to the steaming grilled potato skin stall not far away, her eyes sparkling.
"Let's find a place to stay first, and then I'll buy it for you after we're settled in."
Shen Siyuan smiled and ruffled her hair, his gaze taking in the signs of the inns about the street.
Xiao Yue walked alongside, her gaze drawn to the red lanterns hanging in the old street, swaying gently in the night breeze, with lights and shadows swirling on the ground.
