Twilight is coming from the horizon little by little, and the room is getting darker and darker.
Gu Fenglin skillfully found fire sickles, candles and other objects, and lit the lamp.
When he was doing these things, Mu Yunhan's eyes followed him from beginning to end.
This made him very happy.
He held her in his arms, put his chin on her shoulder, and rubbed her ears and temples: "Do you miss me?"
Mu Yunhan was stunned for a moment, then lowered his eyes: "Then do you miss me?"
Gu Fenglin said without hesitation: "Of course I do."
But he could not give her any news for more than half a year.
Even if she asked Xuanda to bring him wishful tea, she never got any news.
Only the couplet, the inscription, and the auspicious date when the restaurant opened reminded her that he was still there.
Mu Yunhan smiled and looked into his eyes: "Actually, I'm fine."
She spent countless nights thinking about him, worrying about him, staying up all night, sleeping until the rooster crowed, and waking up again at dawn.
She worked hard to fight her way back to the capital, to live a good life, and also to prevent herself from having time to think about him.
When she heard that Wu Yanzhuang said he was missing, her despair and grief were beyond words.
But all this has passed, and she doesn't want to dwell on it.
This answer was somewhat surprising to Gu Fenglin.
He fell silent, and the smile in his eyes gradually faded.
After a long while, he whispered: "I'm sorry. It's not that I don't want to, but that I can't."
He always hits exactly where she cares most.
As Mu Yunhan thought about this, his eyes began to feel sore and blurry, and two big tears rolled down without warning.
Gu Fenglin hurriedly wiped away her tears, like a child who had done something wrong: "What's wrong with you?"
"It's nothing." Mu Yunhan wiped away his tears, sat up straight, and smiled: "You have suffered a lot along the way, right? Are you hungry? I asked someone to bring food over, and I happened to have some bamboo tube wine, so I want to try it."
Gu Fenglin smiled and nodded.
Mu Yunhan walked out, whispered a few words to Xiaomi, then found Lady Yan downstairs, borrowed a comb and mirror, and re-dressed herself to be exquisite and decent.
Lady Yan smiled at the side and said, "What are you going to do?"
Mu Yunhan smiled: "I want to look decent."
I've already been embarrassed once, and I don't want to be embarrassed again.
Lady Yan nodded in approval: "Very good."
Xiao Cai leaned against the wall with the knife in his arms, and said with drooped lips: "So, I chased him and pushed him forward. I don't know why. This time it's good, I've been robbed of my job, and I'm very happy."
"If you don't speak, no one will think you are mute!"
Madam Yan gave him a sharp look, smoothed the wrinkles on Mu Yunhan's clothes, and said softly: "Master has told me that the room will be reserved for you tonight, so don't worry."
Mu Yunhan felt weird, as if he had done something bad by leaving the room to them.
But looking at Madam Yan, she was very serious and had no intention of making fun of her.
I had no choice but to thank him and go upstairs again.
Gu Fenglin stood in front of the window with his back to her, watching the lights of thousands of families in Liuxian County. His dark robe was rolled up by the night wind, sharp and arrogant.
Mu Yunhan suddenly felt that she had seen this scene before.
Before she could think of it, Gu Fenglin had already turned around, smiled and stretched out his hand towards her: "Why did it take so long?"
Mu Yunhan walked up and stood side by side with him: "Alin, tell me about your stay in Lanjing." (To be continued)
