Love is as vast as the Milky Way, impossible to cross.

Chapter 227 It was a deep-seated longing and reluctance to part.

The next morning, Li Qingyou and Liu Shiyin arrived at their destination early—the opening ceremony of a collaboration with a large high-end luxury brand.

Sunlight streamed through the clouds, illuminating the magnificent venue and making it sparkle.

As the two entered the venue, they were immediately captivated by the scene before them. The spacious hall was exquisitely and elegantly decorated, and a faint floral fragrance filled the air.

"Sister Shishi, this place is so beautiful!"

Li Qingyou couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

Liu Shiyin nodded, a satisfied smile appearing on her face:

"Yes, our job is to make this place even more perfect. We need to hurry up and start setting it up."

The two quickly placed their floral arrangements in the designated spots, their movements skillful and swift. In no time, the venue was decorated with a profusion of flowers, creating a beautiful and enchanting scene.

When all the floral arrangements were in place, the entire venue was transformed, becoming more glamorous and elegant.

Li Qingyou and Liu Shiyin stood aside, admiring their work, their hearts filled with satisfaction and joy.

"Let's rest in the car for a while, and we'll pack up after we're done,"

Liu Shiyin pulled Li Qingyou aside and whispered...

"Sister Shishi, wait a minute!"

Li Qingyou's voice was filled with urgency and excitement.

"I heard that the mystery guest at today's opening ceremony is a big star! It would be such a shame if we missed it."

Just as Liu Shiyin was about to leave, Li Qingyou quickly pulled her back. Liu Shiyin frowned slightly, her gaze sweeping over the bustling crowd around her, feeling a little tired.

Seeing Li Qingyou's expectant face, she couldn't help but feel a surge of affection. She smiled helplessly, gently patted Li Qingyou's hand, and said softly:

"You silly girl, you're always so easily attracted to new things. Okay, then let's stay and take a look."

The two stopped abruptly, their gazes once again fixed on the bustling opening ceremony ahead. The surrounding air seemed to be infected by this excited atmosphere, becoming even more vibrant.

Although Liu Shiyin still felt a little tired, with Li Qingyou by her side, she gradually became immersed in the joy.

The atmosphere at the opening ceremony reached its climax; under the dazzling lights, the crowd was in a frenzy, with cheers rising and falling.

Amidst the commotion, Huo Muchen's appearance shone like a dazzling star, instantly attracting everyone's attention.

Standing in the crowd, Liu Shiyin's originally calm face instantly turned into one of utter shock the moment she saw Huo Muchen.

Her gaze was fixed on the stage, on the man she missed and longed for day and night. His figure was still upright, and his temperament was still extraordinary. But those once affectionate eyes now seemed so unattainable.

Huo Muchen and Sang Yu were cutting the ribbon together, their movements elegant and composed, as if the whole world was making way for them.

However, at this moment when everyone was watching, a burning gaze was cast upon him. That gaze was as dazzling as a flame, piercing through the crowd and staring straight at him.

Huo Muchen glanced sideways, his gaze sweeping through the crowd before settling on that familiar figure.

Their eyes met, and time seemed to stand still. Huo Muchen's pupils dilated instantly, and an indescribable emotion welled up in his heart.

The woman who had once stirred his heart, yet also caused him unbearable pain, now stood not far from him, gazing at him with eyes that were both pitiful and deeply affectionate. Her gaze was as clear as autumn water, yet carried a hint of indescribable sorrow.

Their gazes met in the air, as if they could penetrate each other's souls.

Huo Muchen's heart trembled at that moment. He felt the unspoken emotions in Liu Shiyin's eyes, a deep longing and reluctance that went to the bone.
