Jiang Ning came back and went to Situ Yun's house for dinner, while Yun Qiao returned to Shangjingwan.
She and Xi Lanting lingered for more than two hours before getting up from the bed.
We didn't have much dinner, so the two of them sat in the wicker chairs on the balcony chatting, with some Yun Qiao's favorite snacks and two cans of beer on hand.
Xi Lanting doesn't dislike the taste of beer. Sometimes Yun Qiao wants to drink, and he will drink some with him.
"...Fate is amazing.
When I returned to China, my plan was to take good care of my aunt.
As a result, they were hired by Cheng Yuan, and Jiang Ning and Sun Shanqing were sacked by the company."
They all seem to be unexpected people.
Yun Qiao didn't know that Zhu Yucheng's daughter would return to Yancheng from England; nor did she know that Xi Wenzhan's great-grandson would be Jiang Ning.
She also met Jian Bai.
Yun Qiao is like a magnetic field that attracts the descendants of his deceased friends to him.
"If we follow the calculations of the human race, Jiang Ning is actually the closest to me. After all, he has a bloodline similar to mine."
Yun Qiao said.
Xi Lanting: "You are just the reincarnation of Endless Flower, not a human race."
"It doesn't matter."
Yun Qiao said, "Du Xiaoqin's flesh and blood gave birth to me. This is blood."
Xi Lanting: "My wife said yes, so that's it."
Yun Qiao raised her face and pecked him on the lips.
Xi Lanting lowered his head and kissed her.
He hugged her hard and said, "Will you miss those people in the past?
I remember that you were not very comfortable living in the fourth room of the Xi family at that time."
"I don't remember the bad things anymore, I only remember the happy ones."
Yun Qiao said, "So in my memory, I lived quite well in the fourth room.
I still remember that sometimes I would go out with you at night and climb over the wall when I came back.
There are a lot of tea plants planted on the back wall. They have a pleasant fragrance in late spring, but you blame them for being too fragrant."
Xi Lanting listened and nodded lightly: "It's like what I can say."
Yun Qiao leaned against him, burying her head in his neck, absorbing the slight coolness on his face.
The day in June was already very hot, and his slightly cool skin felt very comfortable.
"Lanting, I never remember you when you are not around.
Once I recall it, I will be trapped in it and unable to extricate myself."
Yun Qiao said.
Xi Lanting: "You can now recall with confidence.
I am here, always will be."
Yun Qiao then laughed.
She added, "I used to go out and play all night. Do you want to go now?"
"Why are you still acting like a child?
At that time, I risked my life to accompany the gentleman."
Xi Lanting said.
Yun Qiao was young and curious about everything, so he had to find ways to coax her.
However, as a person who has lived for thousands of years, Xi Lanting does not want to move except when he is willing to exert force on the bed.
"...I'm a little lazy too, the entertainment nowadays is too noisy."
Yun Qiao said.
Xi Lanting moved his body slightly to give her more room, and hugged her with neither light nor heavy arms.
"Both Wenqing and Wenzhan are fine. We haven't contacted each other since. They probably continued their normal lifestyle.
Only Wen Luo."
Yun Qiao sighed, "I really didn't expect that he would be willing to be a traitor."
In the end, it was Jiang Yanjin who got rid of him.
After Jiang Yanjin killed Xi Wenluo, she once said to Yun Qiao, "When I lived in the Xi family, he was just a child."
Yun Qiao was living a somewhat numb life at that time and had never thought about this sentence carefully.
Now that she is lying in Xi Lanting's arms, her delicate emotions have returned, and she can understand the sadness of Feiyan's words.
He is a child that he has watched grow up.
If it weren't for national justice, Jiang Yanjin would definitely not have taken on that task by herself.
The past is like smoke, and people and things from a hundred years ago are like faded old photos, no longer vivid even in memory.
Seeing that she was slightly silent, Xi Lanting leaned over and kissed her.
