After all of them are reborn, who would still want to marry 2.5 Jo Satoru?

Lan Tang smiled with his eyes curved. Although he knew that this situation might only last for tonight, an indescribable sweetness still filled his heart.

In a sense, he is not good at taking care of others, especially taking care of other people's emotions.

Lan Tang is rarely moved by anything and never lets others influence his mentality.

His emotions were like a barely passing exam paper, remaining extremely stable. His superior, the colonel, once commented on him:

A natural born killer or an excellent spy.

As long as this person doesn't mention the word "sister".

Just as the colonel commented, whenever Adele was mentioned, his heart would inexplicably soften, almost like a pool of spring water.

My rationality has been completely emptied, and I am just like a fool who can only smile.

Lantang kissed Liuli's forehead, "I'm very happy, Adele."

"If you keep talking, we won't be able to find the best place to watch the fireworks." Liuli wrapped her arms around his neck. This was a very dangerous posture, as if she was holding the other person's lifeline.

But Lan Tang just nodded in cooperation and carried her forward.

He walked and stopped along the way, slowing down in front of almost every stall.

"Adele, would you like a candy apple?"

Liuli looked at the sparkling candy apple and nodded without hesitation, "I do."

Lan Tang held her in his arms with one hand, picked out the largest, roundest and most beautiful candied apple from the small window, and held it to her mouth on a small stick.

Liuli looked at the beautiful round, shiny decoration with a scrutinizing expression, and hesitantly took a bite from the thinnest part of the icing.

Her eyes lit up, and after chewing and swallowing quickly, she pushed the apple to Lan Tang's mouth and said with a smile,

"Brother, try it. It tastes very special."

Lan Tang cooperated by opening his mouth and taking a bite at the place where she had bitten the apple. As soon as the apple entered his mouth, his handsome face wrinkled.

"It's so sour..."

The French man showed an aggrieved expression, and his green eyes almost shed tears of rationality.

"It looks so good, why does it taste so sour?" Lan Tang looked at the candy apple in his hand, which he had only bitten twice, with a look of fear, and couldn't help muttering.

“It’s like a scam.”

Her crow-feather-like eyelashes fluttered briskly. "Just like the poem says, bitter fruits have beautiful appearances, otherwise how could you swallow them willingly?"

She poked Lan Tang's face with her fingertips, signaling him to look at the "bitter fruit" that had been bitten twice.

"Look, you take a bite, I take a bite, and we bite out a heart."

Lan Tang stared at the apple that was so sour that it was hard to eat. His eyes were like a sponge soaked in sea water, wet and soft.

"That proves it's a gift from God, not a bitter fruit."

“But it’s very sour.”

Liuli cleared her throat, her mouth also feeling sour.

In order to deceive Lan Tang, she even pretended to be happy about eating the dessert.

"I ate it with anticipation, and the results were sweet. So why should I care about the taste?"

At this point, Lan Tang paused and looked at the apple in his hand thoughtfully.

"Should I make it into a specimen? This will be proof that Adele and I are in love. I'll put it on my bedside table as a decoration!"

Liuli was amazed by his words, and then simply refused, "No, look——"

"The apples have started to oxidize."

The bite-shaped heart-shaped hole has turned yellow, and the color looks like a messy dusk.

"If an apple like this appeared on my bedside table, I would doubt my own aesthetic taste."

"Ok."

Lan Tang showed a lost expression. He picked up the apple and took another bite, showing a painful expression as if he was attacked by the sourness.

"elder brother."

Liuli opened her eyes wide, "Don't you dislike sour food?"

Lan Tang's voice was weak. Sour and spicy were both weapons, one attacking the taste buds and the other attacking the gums.

"But this is the apple that Adele and I share. It is a gift from the gods."

"You gave this to me, and I shared it with you. What does this have to do with the gods?"

"Then this is Adele's gift, and we should cherish it even more."

After saying this, he took another bite, his expression painful and his movements firm.

"Really, there's nothing I can do about you."

Liuli sighed and went over to eat the sour apple with Lan Tang.

"Since this is a gift we gave to each other, we should eat it together, even if it's bitter."

"After all, if you have sweetness, you must bear bitterness."

In this way, the two of them finished eating the candied apple together, and they were so jealous that they almost cried.

"Um, Lantang?"

A young man wearing a white shirt, black trousers, and short dark red hair stood not far away. He asked in confusion,

“Are the sour apples in this shop delicious?”

Lan Tang and Liuli turned to look at him at the same time and asked in unison, "Sour apple?"

Oda Sakunosuke was puzzled by their reactions. "Yeah, the apples at festivals are usually the cheap kind that's been prematurely ripened. They taste really sour, and everyone buys them just for their looks."

"Don't you know?"

Lantang and Liuli looked at each other, then turned to look at Odasaku, "Not sour."

“The apples in this store are not sour at all.”

“Very sweet.”

"Very tasty."

The two of them talked back and forth, making Oda Sakunosuke even more confused, but he was born to be as calm as Shiraki, and was almost never shocked or surprised by anything.

So he nodded calmly, "Then I'll buy one to try. Candied apples are indeed what you should eat at the festival."

After saying that, he walked towards the small shop next door.

Lan Tang and Liuli looked at his departing back and felt inexplicably happy.

"Brother, someone is eating sour apples with us."

"so good."

"Yeah, that's awesome."
