Chapter 943

At this time, Philip was being dragged around the town by Melody.

At night, the scenery of Phoenicia was like a painting. The ancient streets were packed with tourists.

The roadside was filled with different stalls. There were vendors selling fruit, snacks, souvenirs, jewelry,and so on.

Melody skipped around happily like a 13-year-old girl.

“Hey, Philip, is this pretty?”

Melody picked up a masquerade mask, put it over her face, and asked Philip with a grin.

Philip put his hands in his trouser pockets, shook his head, and said, “It doesn’t look good.”

Melody rolled her eyes at him and said, “What a spoilsport.”

Then, she seemed to have found something interesting and ran over joyfully like an elf.

It was a musical instrument made of bones.

It was a souvenir sold by an old woman.

“Young miss, would you like to buy one?”

The old woman narrowed her eyes and said with a grin.

Melody fiddled with the instrument and tried to put it on her thin, rosy mouth before blowing hard. Thewhimpering sound was very unpleasant.

Instantly, Melody’s face turned sour.

However, she did not give up and tried again several times, but the result was still not good.

The old woman just smiled.

Philip also smiled.

When Melody noticed this scene, she immediately dropped the bone instrument and walked away withher hands behind her back.

However, she still turned around and looked back at it from time to time.

Philip stood in front of the small stall and looked at the bone musical instrument thoughtfully.

After a while, Philip and Melody came to the most famous attraction in Phoenicia, Phoenix Bridge.

This was an arched stone bridge with a length of more than 300 feet. This was the most famous scenicspot in Phoenicia.

Moreover, there was a poignant love story attached to this bridge.

As such, lovers from all over the country who came to Phoenicia would definitely come to the PhoenixBridge.

Melody was naturally no exception, pulling Philip to stand on the bridge while looking at the widePhoenix Lake in front of them. The water flowed slowly while the crowd also moved leisurely.

Red lanterns hung high on the bridge as vendors shouted their wares. Everything was beautiful andpeaceful.

Melody looked sideways, watching Philip who was standing a few feet away from her with his hands inhis trouser pockets. He was looking at Phoenix Lake. His handsome profile made him look like a princein a fairy tale.

She took out her phone and secretly took a picture of this beautiful moment.

Melody knew it was impossible between her and Philip.

He had a very loving wife and such a lovely daughter.

Philip turned his head, saw Melody staring at her phone in tears, and asked in confusion, “What’swrong?”

Melody quickly put away her phone, forced a smile, and rubbed her eyes before saying, “It’s nothing.There’s a speck of dust in my eye.”

Philip did not say anything. He took out an item from his pocket, handed it to Melody, and said, “Sinceyou like it so much, I bought it for you.”

With her heart beating rapidly in her chest, Melody looked at the bone instrument in Philip’s hand andtook it excitedly.

At that moment, thousands of houses in Phoenicia were lit up brightly by the fireworks in the sky.

Standing on Phoenix Bridge, Melody stood on tiptoes and suddenly kissed Philip on the lips.

It was just a peck before Melody drew back quickly. She could not stop her tears from flowing as shelowered her head and said, “Thank you. This is the only time.”

Philip was startled. He stood there looking at Melody in front of him, his mind in shambles.

Without waiting for Philip’s reaction, Melody burst into a smile and pulled Philip along. “Play with metonight. And then, starting tomorrow, you’re my big brother.”

There was no room for negotiation.

Melody quickly pulled Philip along with her.

Very soon, they arrived at the entrance of an auction hall.

Many luxurious cars were parked at the door.

The minimum standards were BMW and Mercedes-Benz.

“Why are we here?”

Philip asked in confusion. He raised his eyes and glanced at the tall building of the auction hall.

The gilded characters spelling out ‘Phoenix Pavilion’ were very stylish.

The entire three-story high building was made of wood. The ancient architecture with carved beamspresented a very interesting flair.

Melody said mischievously, “I heard that this Phoenix Pavilion will auction a very valuable treasuretonight. It was owned by a certain queen from the olden times. Why don’t we go in and take a look?”

Philip shook his head and said, “What’s there to look at? Let’s go back. Mila is waiting for me.”

Melody refused and dragged Philip in anyway. “Then just accompany me. We’re just here to look at theexcitement anyway.”
