Su Yunling looked at Yan Qian and asked, "Did you know they would come?"
Yan Qi'an nodded, "When we separated, they said that Zhizhi left them the address and time, saying that they would meet at Tianyu Pavilion on July 7th of the first year after you came back."
As Yan Qi'an spoke, he gently pulled out a chair and sat down. Then he raised his eyes to look at Su Yunling and continued: "But, maybe I won't be able to come this year."
Su Yunling:?
Yan Qian shrugged and said, "They don't know whether you will come back this year or next year."
Su Yunling: "..."
It seems... makes sense.

When Gu Zhiqi woke up, it was already afternoon.
Seeing that there was another person in the box, Gu Zhiqi was stunned for a moment, looked at Yan Qian and asked, "Why are you here too?"
Yan Qi'an: "I guess you guys are waiting here, so I'll wait too."
She may not have seen Yun Qian and the others for a long time.
After speaking, Yan Qi'an told Gu Zhiqi what he said about Su Yunling.
After listening to this, Gu Zhiqi's depressed mood improved a lot.
Also, Yun Qian and the others don't know when she will come back. If she didn't come to keep her appointment this year, she might come next year, or the year after that.
Seeing that Gu Zhiqi's mood had improved a lot, Su Yunling secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing that she was unhappy made him feel uncomfortable, but he finally felt better now.
The group of people sat in the box and chatted for a long time. When it was time for dinner, they still didn't hear anyone coming, so they had dinner first.
After dinner, the four of them continued to sit in the box, chatting and waiting.
This wait lasted several hours.
Until it was almost midnight, Yun Qian and the others were nowhere to be seen. The four of them felt a little disappointed and got up and left the box.
Su Yunling looked at the somewhat depressed Gu Zhiqi and comforted him softly: "Come back next year."
Tang Yichen followed Su Yunling and echoed: "Yes, let's wait together next year."
Just now when Gu Zhiqi fell asleep, Su Yunling and Yan Qian talked about Gu Zhiqi's mood in the past few days, so she also comforted him, "They are so powerful, nothing will happen to them."
"Before I returned to Jiuxing City, I put protective formations on them. If something happened to them, I wouldn't be able to feel it."
Yan Qian said, reaching out and patting Gu Zhiqi's shoulder.
Hearing the comfort in the three people's voices, Gu Zhiqi glanced at them and wanted to say that she was fine, but in the end he said nothing.
Not waiting for anyone made her feel a little depressed.
Su Yunling took Gu Zhiqi's hand and walked slowly outside Tianyu Pavilion.
Gu Zhiqi thought of something and turned to Yan Qi'an and said, "Should we go back to Jiuxing City?"
Yan Qi'an: "Where do you live?"
Gu Zhiqi: "Brother Ling's house."
Yan Qi'an was not polite and asked directly, "Do you have a place? Let me stay here for a while. I will go back tomorrow."
Gu Zhiqi turned his head and looked at Su Yunling.
Su Yunling raised her eyebrows and said, "That's your home too, you can make the decision."
Gu Zhiqi was silent for two seconds, then turned to look at Yan Qi'an, "Let's go there together. I'll arrange a room for you when we get there."
Yan Qian nodded.
It was already past eleven o'clock in the evening, almost twelve o'clock, and there were many street lamps standing in the yard outside Tianyu Pavilion, and there were many trees planted on the side.
The four people walked side by side, and the plain white light reflected the four people's shadows on the ground, swaying and flowing between the shadows of the trees.
Soon, four figures stood beside the car.
Tang Yichen consciously opened the driver's door, and Yan Qi'an also consciously walked to the passenger door.
Su Yunling opened the back seat door and motioned for Gu Zhiqi to get in the car first.
Gu Zhiqi bent down and was about to get into the car when suddenly there was a rush of footsteps behind him, followed by four familiar voices.
"Master!"
A quick and joyful voice sounded, not quite neat, but loud enough.
Gu Zhiqi and the other four people all paused, turned around slowly, and then saw the four people standing in the light and shadow, looking at them with big toothy smiles.
It was Yun Qian, Sikong Yan, Meng Tu and Jin Yuan who were covered in dust and sweat.
Seeing this, Gu Zhiqi and the others couldn't help but smile at the four of them.
In the night, several people smiled and looked at each other, looking at each other from a distance.
Some partings last forever. Even if you agree on a time, you may not always be able to keep the appointment.
It's been five hundred years since they met again, how lucky they were.
