What she didn't expect was that Wen Yanzhi wasn't in the room. She wrapped a coat and opened the door. The humidity in the night was heavy, and Gu Yanran couldn't help shivering.

The person by the door heard the sound of the door and came over, "Okay?"

"What are you... standing at the door?" Gu Yanran looked behind him, there was still half a cigarette on the ground that had not been extinguished, and it should have been thrown aside in a hurry, "Is there something bothering you?"

"It's okay." Wen Yanzhi smiled, and tightened her coat again, "Go in, it's getting late."

Gu Yanran felt a little uncomfortable, he seemed to be hiding something from her.

When Wen Yanzhi went into the shower, Gu Yanran hid under the quilt, closed her eyes, and tried her best to let herself fall asleep, but she didn't know if it was because she slept too long during the day, or because she was nervous, she didn't feel sleepy at all.

The sound of water from the shower made Gu Yanran blush, she tossed and turned, and finally shrank in a corner.

The sound of water stopped abruptly, and Gu Yanran's heart skipped a beat. He heard Wen Yanzhi's voice coming out. She turned her back to him and tried her best to pretend to be asleep.

But the rapid and disordered breathing still betrayed her.

Wen Yanzhi smiled lightly, and pulled down her quilt a little, "I told you not to sleep with your head stuffed."

"I didn't—" Gu Yanran finally couldn't pretend anymore, she turned her voice, and when she saw the person in front of her, her voice stopped abruptly.

Wen Yanxia's half body was wrapped in a bath towel, his upper body was unobstructed, with clear curves, water drops slowly flowing down his muscular body, and his body line was outlined without any flaws.

Gu Yanran blushed even more with a "swipe..." and immediately turned her gaze away. She was a little incoherent, "Then...the clothes...you...put it..."

Before she could finish her sentence, she felt her side sinking, and Wen Yanzhi sat up.

"That...you, what are you doing..." Gu Yanran leaned to the side, he was not wearing any clothes now.

Wen Yanzhi thinks Gu Yanran is very interesting today, she always looks calm and indifferent on weekdays, but he really likes to see her panicked.

He suddenly thought of teasing her, he hooked his lips, with a wicked look at the corner of his mouth, he approached Gu Yanran, "What else do you think I can do?"

Gu Yanran was a little stunned, Wen Yanzhi at this time was not as gentle and refined as he was during the day, he was clearly a demon crawling out of the night to eat her clean.

"That...that..." Gu Yanran swallowed, and faltered, "I... a relative is here..."

Wen Yan was taken aback, and couldn't help laughing.

Only then did Gu Yanran realize that he was teasing her. Embarrassed and angry, she kicked him hard, "You sleep on the sofa by yourself. I thought it was pity for you and made you squeeze on the bed. Now that you think about it, forget it."

But Wen Yanzhi didn't mean to go over, his eyes were soft.

I don't know why Gu Yanran still saw a trace of grievance, she must be delusional, it must be, how could Wen Yanzhi be like this.

"There is only one quilt." Wen Yanzhi said lightly.

Only then did Gu Yanran realize that he looked at the quilt wrapped around him and the empty sofa, "Let's ask Aunt Mu for another one."

"Aunt Mu went to bed early, don't bother her."

Gu Yanran looked at him tangled for a while, then lifted a corner of the quilt, "Then you should sleep on the bed too, don't come near me when you sleep at night, and don't grab my quilt."

Wen Yanzhi smiled lightly and said "Okay". Whether he listened or not, only he himself would know.

Wen Yanzhi turned off the lights, lying on the bed, feeling the temperature of the quilt, "Why is it still so cold after lying down for so long?" He groped in the quilt, and when he grabbed her hand, it was also icy cold.

"I'm always afraid of the cold." Gu Yanran deliberately moved his body back, trying to avoid contact with his body, "I don't know what's going on, I just couldn't warm up just now, but it was warm when I slept during the day .”

Wen Yanzhi in the dark curled his lips slightly, but did not speak.

"Wen Yanzhi, are you sleepy? I can't sleep, can you talk to me?" Gu Yanran felt that he had no sleepiness at the moment and was very energetic.

"Okay, what do you want to talk about?"

Gu Yanran couldn't see things very clearly at night, and could only hear his voice coming from her ears, and felt particularly at ease, "Hmm...let me think about it." She thought for a while, "How many girlfriends have you dated?"

"I only like you."

Gu Yanran keenly noticed that there were different meanings in his words, "I asked you how many girlfriends you've dated, and if you answer what you like to do, just answer honestly."

Wen Yanzhi thinks that she is confusing when she is confused, but sometimes it is scary when she is smart, "I don't know if it counts as a friendship before, but I just admire her, not love her."

When Gu Yanran heard it, he felt a little uncomfortable, "Then what did you like about her then?"

"It's not that I like her, it's just that I appreciate her." Wen Yanzhi looked at her eyes shining in the dark, hooked her nose, and wanted to dig a hole for him.

"Okay, then what do you admire about her?"

"I don't know either, I just think she's a little different, but we've only been together for a month."

Gu Yanran kicked again, "Sleep on the sofa."

Wen Yanzhi wasn't prepared, he didn't expect her to kick her suddenly, he said in pain, "What's wrong?"

"Wen Yanzhi, how many girls have been deceived by your sweet words, you and every girl say that, right?" Gu Yanran held his breath in his chest, feeling as if his own things were being preempted by others.

"I only told you." Wen Yanzhi looked at him. In the dark night, her silhouette was clearly reflected in his eyes. There was moonlight in her eyes, so beautiful that he couldn't help but want to collect them.

"What happened next?" Gu Yanran simply turned sideways and listened to his story.

"There is no later, there is no end without a beginning."

"Really?" Gu Yanran had an expression of disbelief. This story is over before it even begins? "She didn't come to see you again?"

"No." He paused, "I don't know where she went afterwards, and I haven't seen her since I graduated from college."

"If it were me, I would definitely stalk you." Gu Yanran clicked his tongue a few times, thinking that the girl was nothing more than that.

"Then I'll wait for you to stalk you." Wen Yanzhi smiled slightly, "You're different from her. I was just curious about her at that time, and didn't intend to get to the bottom of it."

"Wen Yanzhi, tell me about your university." She felt a little regretful about not being involved in his previous life.

"Okay, I originally studied finance, but I changed my major when I was a freshman, which made my dad very angry. I don't want to follow the path they set for me."

"Then why do you like archaeology?"

"Do you still remember the authentic painting of Wang Xizhi you saw in my room?"

Gu Yanran nodded, "Yes".

"It was left in the ancestral house. I heard that it was left by my great-grandfather's generation and my great-grandfather's father. I like to study those."

"Is it the old house you took me to before?" Gu Yanran recalled the scene of meeting Mr. Wen before, and felt that the house was not quite like the ancestral house he was talking about.

Sure enough, Wen Yanzhi explained: "No, it's another courtyard in the south of the city, which has been abandoned for a long time. It was just taken care of by someone two years ago, only to find that there are many calligraphy and paintings hidden in it. I will take you there when I have a chance. have a look."

"Okay." Gu Yanran agreed wholeheartedly. There was nothing more exciting for her than being able to do this.

"Okay, it's time to go to bed, or I won't be able to wake up tomorrow." Wen Yanzhi covered her with a quilt, and transferred the warmth to her side.

"Okay." She was really sleepy after listening to him just now, Gu Yanran closed her eyes obediently, and at some point, she fell into a deep sleep.

I don't know how long it took, but her ears were very noisy. She turned over and buried herself in the quilt, but the sound outside continued. She opened her eyes with some displeasure, got out of bed and opened the door.

A dozen people were repairing the side house outside, and a few people hurried past.

"Princess, are you awake?" Xiang Nu came over with a washbasin, and was a little surprised to see her standing at the door.

"What are they doing?" She rubbed her eyes, which were sore that she couldn't open them.

"Princess, have you forgotten? You said you were going to repair the mansion, and the construction period was a bit rushed, so the construction started early in the morning. Did you disturb the princess?" Shanu explained patiently.

Only then did she realize that it was true, she shook her head, "Come in and wash me up."

"Yes." Shan Nu followed behind with a basin in hand.

After freshening up, she sat in front of the dressing table, with unstoppable sleepiness in her eyes, "What do you mean?"

"Back to the princess, the son-in-law is in the yard. I saw him just now when I came here." Xiang Nu responded while helping her to dress up.

"What? Then why didn't you tell me earlier!" She immediately got up and ran out, and when she left the main room, she saw the white figure from a distance, and shouted excitedly: "Say it, say it."

She ran all the way over and saw him just standing aside and looking at the tree in front of her, puzzled: "What are you looking at? What's so interesting about this? What kind of tree is this?"

"Six Dynasties Pine."

"Liuchao pine? Why do you want to plant this? Didn't I ask someone to plant an acacia tree? This tree is bare and doesn't bloom. It doesn't look good." She looked at the tree that had just been planted in front of her and had not yet been covered with soil. disgusted.

"The tree can live for more than 1000 years."

"So?" She really didn't understand, "I can't live that long, so what do I need a tree that can live so long." The more she looked at it, the more displeased she became.

"After 1000 years, there will be people standing here, looking at it, maybe wondering what we would be like 1000 years ago." He looked at the tree in front of him, feeling a little dazed.

"But people don't know who I am." She curled her lips, not understanding what the meaning of his doing was.

Suddenly thought of something, she ran to the study excitedly, and when she came back, she held a brocade box in her hand, and she waved the things in her hand towards him.

"I'll bury this. If someone digs this tree, they will be able to see it. Then they will know who I am." She opened the brocade box, and there was a piece of cooked rice lying quietly inside. "Liu Chupei, Wife of Wang Ying".

She wished to tell everyone that he was hers.

"I'm afraid this brocade box won't last a thousand years." He looked away, pretending he didn't see the words inside.

"What are you afraid of? I have this." She proudly took the thing out of her bosom.
