Gu Lian came out dizzily, and after closing the door, she took a breath gently.

Mess. She grunted and shook her head. In order to make her head clearer, she also knocked her head hard. But these people who didn't see the door were much more sober to her.

“…… Ari ......"

Gu Lian hesitated for a moment and slowly walked to the door of 1202. She shook the book and photo album she was holding, stood a meter in front of Ari, and stopped.

Ari sat obediently in front of the door, his hands on his knees, looking at her with a pair of big delicate eyes and a lovely smile on his face.

-- It's really like someone's shrunken copy.

Gu Lian stared at him for a long time, slowly squatted down, and stretched out a hand.

Ari blinked.

Gu Lian said softly, "You know what I want, Ah Rui. If you don't give it to me, I won't let you in. She smiled slightly, "Or do you want us to stare at each other at the door all night?"

Ari's black grape-like eyes flashed, as if to judge whether her words were true or false, and the two looked at each other for a while, and finally he hung his head, obediently took out Browning and handed it to her. She reached for it, but the moment the pistol left his hand, he suddenly tightened his tiny fingers and grabbed the handle of the gun.

Gu Lian looked at him, but he looked at his hand with a puzzled expression, as if wondering why he did this. He grabbed his left hand with his right hand, finger by finger, and broke it with all his might, until he finally let go of his hand and handed her the gun.

"Good. She laughed and carefully put the gun away. Get up and brush the door open, "Come in." ”

"Excuse me. Ari said politely, taking off his shoes. The slippers were too big and dangling from his feet. Gu Lian looked at him thoughtfully, didn't know what to do to him for a while, thought for a long time, and said, "Have you eaten?"

Originally, I just asked casually. Unexpectedly, the child shook his head. Gu Lian subconsciously glanced at the clock, it was so late......

She can't be the one who did it, right?!

She scratched her face in embarrassment: "I'll go find someone to make you something to eat." ”

She remembered that Zheng Yihao and Liu Liu had both used the device on the wall, and they came over after pressing what they wanted twice. It's easy to fiddle with, but it's her turn to get started, and she can't get the essentials by pressing it. Turning his head hard, he saw Ari looking at him with a smile. She suddenly felt disgraced. He coughed lightly and said, "What's that...... It was too late and the chefs all went back to rest. ”

Ari said obediently, "It's okay, I'm not hungry. ”

She looked at his little arms and legs, where could she not eat? Thinking about it, she gritted her teeth: "It's okay, here's the kitchen, I'll do it." ”

Ari looked at her in amazement. It seems to be tempting to say that I don't see that she can cook, but out of politeness. And he didn't say anything. Gu Lian is such a good-looking person, how can she fall into majesty in front of children? While glad that he had received cooking instruction from Zheng Yihao and Fan Ziling on the road, he entered the kitchen for the first time in the expedition base.

"What do you want to eat?" Gu Lian looked at the unfamiliar kitchen, and made a list of the menus she would make.

Ah Rui looked at her expression and smiled delicately: "You can eat it." ”

“……”

Have a little faith in her.

Gu Lian counted the ingredients in the refrigerator, eighty blue coins for eggs and fifty blue coins for vegetables...... Ah no, no, no, habitually counting money. She lit the fire and spent half an hour cooking two side dishes, during which time Ari stood quietly and watched, and when the food was served, he consciously tiptoed up a plate and silently followed her.

It feels like a recognizable chick.

Gu Lian looked back, his small figure was also moving in steps, and she felt a little weird. Sitting at the dinner table, because it was a tall chair, it was a little difficult for Ah Rui to climb up, and he needed to use his hands and feet at the same time, Gu Lian sat there, and he was also a little worried.

"How's it going......" Gu Lian carefully observed his expression.

The two dishes were simply fried, one plate was shaken and more salt was added, and the other plate of fried vegetables was okay. She pushed the greens that way, a little expectant.

Ari glanced at her, doubts flashed in his eyes, slowly picked up the dish to his mouth, and looked up at her hesitantly. Gu Lian didn't notice his suspicions, she just looked at him nervously. Ari retracted his gaze, opened his small mouth, took a small bite first, chewed and distinguished, and suddenly smiled relaxedly, and then swallowed the whole leaf.

Swallowing obediently, Ah Rui raised his black eyes and smiled pleasantly: "It's delicious." ”

"Really, it's not that delicious, is it?" Gu Lian happily picked up a vegetable leaf and tasted it, the more she ate it, the more she felt that it was not bad, and she couldn't help but praise herself happily, "It seems that I can support myself even if I am alone." ”

If mom knew she could cook, would she praise herself?

Or will you scold lightly, what is the great thing about such a big person who can cook a dish?

Gu Lian thought about it and laughed softly.

Ari looked at her for a long time, she held her chin, her eyes looked into the distance, I don't know what she was thinking, but this expression was so gentle and distant, and her still immature eyebrows were already admirable maturity in the eyes of children.

The little boy grabbed his chopsticks, lowered his eyes, and said in a low voice, "It's really delicious." ”

"Thank you. Gu Lian came back to her senses, bent her eyes and smiled, not taking it seriously.

After dinner, Gu Lian drove Ah Rui to take a bath, while she soaked the dishes and chopsticks in the water, and ******** knocked on the neighbor's door.

Zheng Yihao had just finished taking a shower, his sturdy body was full of heat, his black hair was slightly wet, and he opened the door while wiping his hair with a small towel.

"Wait for me to find it. Zheng Yihao listened to the request, although he was a little surprised, he didn't say much, invited her to come in and sit, and went into the house to find it himself.

Gu Lian sat on the small rattan chair she sat on when she came before, on the small transparent glass tabletop, there was a book spread out, Gu Lian couldn't help but look at the cover, it was "Between the Flowers". Gu Lian was a little surprised, and it happened that Zheng Yihao walked out with a bag, and when he saw her looking at the book, he couldn't help but smile: "Isn't it like a book that a big man can read?"

Gu Lian hurriedly shook her head and said, "Originally, it was written by a big man, and anyone can read it." ”

Zheng Yihao smiled gently: "That's right, "Between the Flowers" is already full of fat and powder," he picked up the book and read a paragraph casually, which was Ouyang Jiong's "Preface to the Collection of Flowers", "'There are Qi feast sons, embroidered beauties, handing leaves and leaves of flower notes, and the text is drawn from beautiful brocade; There are no clear words, and they are used to help the coquettish state. These words are all written poems on the flower paper by the men at the banquet, and the beauties on the side knock on the sandalwood board to sing the lyrics, which is not in line with this era at all. ”

He didn't look like he really liked this book of words that was too ornate and extravagant, Gu Lian asked strangely, "Then why do you want to read it?"

Standing at the table, Zheng Yihao's gaze slowly shifted, looking out the window, his rough facial features, but he could withstand scrutiny, his expression was so gentle that he could be honest, but it made people feel reliable, gentle and elegant like a traveler who holds an umbrella in the night rain and listens to the sound of the bell.

"Do you know the English language of "Between the Flowers"?"

How did she know this?Gu Lian shook her head and tried to guess, "Flower ...... flower…… Space...... among…… Assemble...... collection？”

Zheng Yihao looked back at her with a smile, sat down and said, "Almost, just put it together, TheCollectionofSongsAmongFlowers." ”

A collection of poems picked from a hundred flowers.

It's beautiful.

Gu Lian couldn't help but sigh.

"Do you think it's beautiful?" Zheng Yihao crossed his hands, sat on the chair, and smiled, "I think it is too." Maybe it's because I'm used to it, just talking about "Between the Flowers", I don't think it's beautiful, but every word is carefully scrutinized, but there is beauty everywhere. ”

"I didn't like to read these books before. But they don't have the time to think about these things, just the reality of things has entangled them powerless, I am afraid that when they really want to find these, they can't find it, so I have to take good care of them. ”

Gu Lian pondered Zheng Yihao's words carefully, and suddenly felt that this man, this man who was quiet and silent, and who had always been generously and silently caring by his side, was so strong and gentle.

When I returned to the room, I happened to see Ah Rui's wet head poking out of the bathroom, looking for something everywhere, and when he met her gaze, his dark eyes opened wide, showing a rare embarrassment, and without waiting for Gu Lian to react, he slammed the door on the ground.

In the blink of an eye, Gu Lian couldn't cry or laugh, took off her shoes and knocked on the door: "I'm going to borrow a few clothes for you, although they are older, can you make do with them?"

The bathroom was silent for a few seconds, and slowly, the door was slowly moved open, revealing half of Ari's face through the crack. It seems that because of the bath, his little face is inexplicably red, and his little soft hand grasps the side of the door, as if he is holding the handle of the gun that reassures him.

"Give. Gu Lian couldn't help laughing, squatted through the crack in the door that barely stuffed a fist, and handed it to him.

“…… Thank you. Ari pursed his lips and said shyly.

He took it quickly, and slammed the door shut nervously. Gu Lian was stunned for a long time, laughing, and her mood was inexplicably cheerful, she stood up and whispered to the door: "You're welcome." (To be continued.) )
