After saying goodbye to them, the old man returned home with a few children.

Lin Ze came to the car and said worriedly: "Mr. Mu, I should take a few bodyguards with you and your wife?"

"No, you just stay at home and take care of grandpa and the others."

After leaving these words, Mu Jingchen stepped on the accelerator and left in Lin Ze's sight.

The car has gone a long way.

Huangfu Liyue looked back, and she could still see Lin Ze at the gate of Bieyuan.

"Jingchen, it's really just the two of us when we go out this time?"

In the past, no matter which city he went to, Lin Ze would follow him and lead people to protect their safety.

Mu Jingchen looked at the road ahead and replied, "Do you want to bring others with you?"

"Of course not, I'm just not used to it."

She leaned on her seat and looked at the scenery outside the window: "This is the first time the two of us have gone out alone."

In the past, when I went out, I was surrounded by either a driver or a bodyguard.

Unexpectedly, one day, they would travel by car like ordinary couples.

She felt unprecedented ease and joy, and the discomfort in her body was also slightly reduced.

"By the way, Jingchen, where are you taking me?"

"You'll know when you arrive."

Seeing that he was so mysterious, she didn't ask any more questions, and watched the scenery outside the window with peace of mind, enjoying the rare peace.

Time passed by, and the car gradually drove out of Jiangcheng.

Mu Jingchen looked at her.

At some point, she had fallen asleep leaning against the car window.

With a nice curve on his lips, he looked forward and set off towards his destination.

……

As night fell, the car finally stopped.

"Liyue, we're here."

Following his reminder, Huangfu Liyue slowly opened her eyes.

As soon as I looked up, the distant sky was smudged into orange red by the sunset, which was gorgeous and dazzling.

She couldn't wait to get out of the car and looked into the distance.

At the same time, she found herself in a completely strange place.

There are no towering buildings here, no endless crowds, and no endless traffic.

She looked up and saw an antique archway standing in front of her.

There are several big characters marked on the archway: Taoyuan Ancient Town.

"Taoyuan Ancient Town?"

She looked at Mu Jingchen curiously.

He didn't answer, took down his luggage, took her by the hand and entered the ancient town.

She looked around and found that there were all old buildings here, which seemed to be old.

Walking on the long street, there are hawkers hawking, businessmen guarding the shops, shoemakers sitting on the side of the street, and passers-by talking and laughing.

They dress casually and plainly, and walk leisurely. They are not as busy as the urban crowd, and they are not as busy as the crowd holding electronic products.

This bustling scene that was away from the hustle and bustle of the city made her feel like she had stepped into another world.

At this time, Huangfu Liyue seemed to understand the true meaning of the fireworks.

"Jingchen, have these people lived here all this time?"

"Well, this place is very far away from the urban area. The residents of the town have lived here since their ancestors, living a life isolated from the outside world."

Huangfu Liyue looked at the surrounding ancient buildings and the cracked stone road under her feet, and sighed: "There is still such a place."

With the development of modern science and technology, everyone's life has taken a big step forward. Everyone pursues the prosperity in the city, but they never think that there are still people who are willing to stay in this isolated town.

She looked around and finally stopped in front of a small stall.

The stall owner welcomed her warmly.

"Girl, are you here to play?"

"Correct."

She smiled back.

The stall owner handed a wrapped sesame cake to her: "Welcome to our ancient town, this is a freshly baked sesame cake, try it."

She was originally resistant to food, but for some reason, when she saw the food in the hands of the stall owner, she suddenly had the urge to taste it.

She stared at the sesame cake, and suddenly lost her mind.

Mu Jingchen took the sesame cake, thanked the stall owner, and handed him some money, but the stall owner refused.

"It's just a piece of pastry, not worth the money."

Mu Jingchen didn't force it anymore, but split the pastry into two and put one piece to her mouth.

She opened her mouth to taste.

Surprisingly, there was no sense of rejection.

At this moment, she was thinking that maybe what Wei Feng said was not entirely correct.

At least for now, she is not influenced by the medicine in her body.

Mu Jingchen put the remaining half into his mouth and said with a smile, "It tastes good."

She nodded in agreement and said to the stall owner, "Thank you."

The two walked around the long street for a few minutes, and the sky gradually darkened.

Considering that he drove all day today, she suggested: "Let's find a place to rest first?"

"it is good."

Soon, he took her to a homestay.

Different from ordinary homestays, this is an ancient wooden house with traditional bricks and tiles on the roof.

Looking up, you can still see thick smoke billowing from the chimney on the roof.

As soon as the two entered the door, they saw an old woman bowing reverently to the Buddha statue.

Although the two of them didn't believe this, they still waited quietly for the old lady to finish worshiping before explaining their intentions.

"Hi mother-in-law, is there any vacancy?"

After Mu Jingchen spoke, the old woman turned her head slowly.

She seemed to have bad eyesight, and approached with squinted eyes, looking unabashedly.

Huangfu Liyue felt uncomfortable and said, "If not, we won't bother you."

Only then did the old woman speak, her voice was small and hoarse: "Isn't it a local?"

"No."

Huangfu Liyue looked into her sunken eyes and asked: "We are here to stay, it shouldn't matter if we are locals or not?"

"Ha ha……"

The old woman laughed.

"It's okay, there is a room available, come with me."

After speaking, she walked inside.

Huangfu Liyue and Mu Jingchen followed behind.

On the way to the room, they found that the place was very quiet, and it seemed that there was no one else staying there except them.

The old woman pushed open a door.

"You guys stay here."

The two walked in and looked at the environment.

Although it is not in line with luxury, but fortunately it is clean and tidy, and looks very comfortable.

Huangfu Liyue made a final decision immediately: "This room is pretty good, thank you, mother-in-law."

"Someone will deliver the meal at mealtime, and the toiletries are all inside."

The old woman didn't even enter the door. After saying this, she turned and walked out.

Huangfu Liyue looked at Mu Jingchen and asked, "Do you think this mother-in-law is weird?"

When the guest came, not only did she not welcome her, but she was very cold and unwilling to say a word.

How does this look like a businessman?

"It's normal for some people to have weird tempers."

Mu Jingchen asked her to sit down: "You are tired, take a rest."

He poured her a glass of water, then opened the suitcase and began to pack the clothes inside.

She sipped warm water and looked at his firm back, feeling a different kind of happiness.
