The night air was crisp and refreshing, filled with the faint sounds of laughter and classical music drifting from nearby restaurants. As they ascended, they paused occasionally to admire the serene beauty of the scene before them: gently swaying boats glided over the vast expanse of the river, their silhouettes shimmering like shadows against the moonlit water.
Eventually, they arrived at a secluded overlook that offered a breathtaking panoramic view of the capital. The city sprawled out beneath them, twinkling lights scattered across the landscape like a blanket of stars fallen to Earth. From this vantage point, the colors of the city mixed with the deep blue of the night sky, creating a magical tapestry that stretched as far as the eye could see. It felt as if the earth and the sea were at their feet.
Feeling satisfied with the beautiful atmosphere, Yue Ran turned her attention to the delicate flower-patterned sky lantern that she had asked Silas to buy for her.
