A Billion Stars Can't Amount to You

The waitress replied, “You’re welcome,” then quickly walked away in her high heels.

After the waitress was some distance away, Ji Yi took a few steps forward and stopped in front of the Cladrastis Pavilion. She reached her hands out and pushed the door open.

The lights were off, so it was pitch-black.

With the light from the corridors, Ji Yi saw a line of long tables with all different kinds of gourmet food and good wine.

The room was big, but with the light from the corridors, she could only see a small area; everything else was hidden in the darkness.

It was like there was no one in the room... complete silence. There wasn’t even the sound of breathing.

Ji Yi stopped at the door for some time before she took little steps into the room.

After she walked about a meter into the room, the door behind her automatically closed shut. Without the light from the corridors, the entire room was frighteningly dark.

Ji Yi instinctively stopped walking. Deep down inside, she panicked and thought it was a little strange, but her curiosity stopped her from turning around and leaving. Instead, she stood there and scanned all areas of the room, but all she saw was darkness. Ji Yi furrowed her brows and was just about to ask “Is anyone here?” when all of a sudden, she saw a bright light from the corners of her eyes.

She turned around to see a tiny light coming down from the roof, illuminating a round white circle of light on the floor.

There was a person standing in the white circle wearing a Snow White costume, just like from the fairytale.

Ji Yi was stunned, but before she could snap back to reality, there was another white circle of light about five meters away from Snow White. Inside the circle was someone dressed in a Cinderella costume.

Another light started to appear, then another and another, with the same short intervals as before. Underneath each light was a person – the Snow Queen, the Little Mermaid, the Little Red Riding Hood, and Sleeping Beauty... practically all the popular fairytale characters appeared.

Ji Yi turned around non-stop, checking out the people in the costumes. Before she could figure out what was happening, she suddenly heard a muffled “bang.”

Her body shuddered in shock. She patted her chest, and just when she was about to calm down, she saw something glow in the dark in front of her. It looked like snow floating down from the rooftop. After some time, they fell on her and covered the floor all around her.

The glow in the dark paper was still falling when Ji Yi vaguely heard the door open.

Her gaze followed the sound, and under the dim circular beams of light, she saw someone pushing a little cart slowly to her.

The cart was covered, so she couldn’t see what was inside.

The person pushing the cart was a waitress.

Just when the cart was about two meters away, the beams of light suddenly went out and the entire room was engulfed in darkness again.

Ji Yi vaguely heard footsteps of people leaving and others drawing closer.

They walked gently but she could feel that they moved quickly.

About three minutes later, Ji Yi heard the rustling of what sounded like the cover being removed.

She instinctively looked over to where the waitress had parked the cart just now, but before she was able to do so, she suddenly heard the smooth sound of a piano. It was playing a melody that she was more than familiar with.
